FARMERS' AND HOME-MAKERS'


Farmers and Home Makers week
has for many years been "Red Let
ter Week." not only for hundreds of
men and women of Minnesota who arc
actively interested in the farms and
farm homes of the state, but also for
the agricultural teachers, investigators
and college students at University
Farm.
The former, each for himself or her.
self, selects from large and varied
program those topics that are of parti-
cular value to him in his work, obtains
information about it from experts, talks
it over with persons from other parts Of
the state or with his neighbors who are
also at Farmers and Home-Makers
Week, listens to lectures, observes de-
monstrations, attends meetings of var
ious associations, enjoys evening enter
tainments and banquets, and fills the
week full Of edifying and inspiring
experiences.
But it is an even exchange. The fac
ulty and college students receive from
the farm men and women who attend
the Week the results of their practical
experience, and their vital and intimate
contact with the activities Of the coun-
try.
From Monday noon, January 8, to
Saturday noon, January 8, the doors at
University Farm swing wide open for
hearty welcome to the men and women
interested in this mutual cooperation
for still further prosperity and happi-
ness in rural Minnesota!
Nine different programs for men and
six for women-all running at once on
every day Of the week! Take your
choice! Always something new for ev'
