PRAISE FOR COUNTY
 FARM BUREAU
Editor of New England Home stead Pleased With His
 Visit
Woodstoeks Contain Fine Examples
 of Good Farming

Tn q recent issue of the New Eng land Homestead, a reliable authority devoted 10 farming and agriculture, appears an article which reflects much credit on the excellent work being done n this state by the farm bureaus. Wiadham county is taken to illustrate the work being done. which is exceed iugIy aat.ering to the Hindham Coun- tv Farmers Association and to it's county agents past and present.
 The publishers of the periodical sent representative to Putnam to in- vestigate the work being done. 1 camera man came along and as the re- suit of his work three pictures accom- pam the article One picture is of a Hereford bull owned jointly by farm CTS of Woodstock, who are trying in a small way the possibilities of switch ing from milk to beef production. Two other pictures are of the house on the Brink farm and the large barn on the May farm, both in Woodstock. Under one of the pictures appears the following fattering comment: The Woodstocks have as fine examples of good farming as can be found in the state
 The article includes the Windham County Farm Bureau as among the many throughout New England which hold the respect, confidence and loy- alty of the farmers. !" Continuing the article states as follows When an editorial representative of the Home stead spent two or three days in the county last fall. he was greatly pleas ed to find the work being done and the loyalty shown for the then county agent, E. W Ellis, and for the organ ization When Mir Ellis resigned last winter to engage in wider field of activities, the association was fortu- nate in securing Frank L. Davis as his successor With the cooperation and support of the officers Mr Davis pick ed things up where MT. Ellis left of, and the good work has not halted, even temporarily "
 The article. which covers q full page. then points out the diversified lines of work being carried out, in eluding the growing of more soy beans and silage corn, also corn for grain. The work among the fine or shards is touched upon; also testing and selecting seed corn. The cost of milk. proper feeding of stock and other things of interest to farmers are being improved and ex- perimented with to bring all depart ments of the farm to high standard of efficiency. The article is teeming with praise for the great work being lone i'll Windham county.
