County agents of West Virginia, In

and the state agricultural college to
Increase food production, last year en-
conraged the farmers of the state to
keep additional sows the result be-
ing that these sows produced 13,722
pigs, which increased West Virginia's
pork production by more than "a mil

been one of the things particularly EN-
phasized by the agents and thereby

Is the feltlng property of the wool
fiber and the importance of avoiding
any method of pressing which will
cause the garment to shrink and lose
its soft and fluffy nature. Use mod
erately hot iron and a pressing cloth
wrung as dry as possible. Place the
cloth on the right side of the garment
and press until the pressing cloth IL

face OF the material will look soft and

Club Insures Reforms.
The most noteworthy achievements
Of the club. however, are the changes
that have taken place In the commu-
nifty Mt large. Before the club was
started, people living In that vicinity
were wont to remark regarding any
proposed public meeting: mo use;
you can't get anybody out" Within
the short period of one year everybody
began TO respond to n notice of club
meeting, and the question was: "Where
are you going to put them ALP
The country farm bureau four years
ago had only one representative in the
Glenwood community. Now practically
every home represented in the club Is
represented In the farm bureau.
The different teams meet regularly
To hear demonstrations on canning,
WORTHWHILE addresses relating to home
making interests. and to enjoy social
good times. Picnics are held and club
meetings have become the big events
In the community.
Tn fact. social conditions there have
changed completely. The country
church was falling into decay four
years ago. Now II Is full of vigorous
life and has weli-paid minister with
burning desire to make country life
better In his community. The four or
five schools In the community which
previous TO the clubs organization,
had been inndequately equipped and
taught, ranked last year among the
best in the country, with the highest
paid teachers and the best buildings.
The methods Of teaching domestic
science IN the schools have been i'm
proved ms a result Of the clubs influ-
ence.
A prominent feature of the club
work has been the exchange of farm
products. The family which has II sur.
plus of green corn exchanges perhaps
with the one which has nm abundance
Of cherries or beans In this way
every home Is supplied with the prod
uctS II needs. Choice recipes are also
exchanged among the members.
Girls in mother daughter clubs he
come much Interested in home life, and
In learning to do the homely arts In n
better way. The wholesome contest In
the work has taken much of the
drudgery out OF home canning, and
the whole family enjoys the products.
The interests of the community are
tied together by such n club and its
members learn to know and appreciate
each other better.

increasing demand for meat and fats.
Numbers OF all classes OF live stock
have been maintained, Those of swine
and sheep have been increased, the
former largely. the latter slightly. But
the quantities of forage and pasturnge
for live stock have been diminished
Sound agricultural practice de-
mands, the department thinks, the re-
establishment of regular and satisfac-
tory rotations so that fertility may be
restored and the live stock carrying
capacity of the land increased.
Live stock. since 1t helps to retain
fertility on the land, provides a profit
able use for large amounts of rough
age and gives employment to labor
throughout the year, should find II
place on a larger number of farms.
Diversified farming should become
more general, TO the end that each
farm shall produce the necessary food
for It's family and the necessary feed
for It's live stock.
Loss from preventable plant dis
eases should be guarded against by
seed treatment and spraying.
Harvesting of fruits and vegetables
before exposure to frost. and greater
care during harvesting. packing, stor-
ing, and marketing. are urged. togeth-
or with continued organized efforts

In many sections. both North and

The change In the social conditions
of the community which has come

markable than the canning records.
