My dear Sirs This month has
been spent in the different sections
of the county, where | have given
Instructions in the making of pre-
serves and jellies.
The second week of this month
held the Annual Short Course for
the Club Girls. We averaged twenty

unfortunate in having the best work
ers in the State with us. We carried
out the program as best we could
under the circustances and impress
ed the poultry breeders why we
should know the diseases of plants
and their control, and also the import
ance of canning. We had a lively
/; discussion from the girls about why
there were different reasons for do
ing things and doing them right.
They took these reasons home with
them and have been to several places
by request to please come and tell
them. Very respectfully,
