they were doing in the way OF agri-

The work Of Mathews i'm Pulaski

of the farm bureau in that county
the poultry industry has grown by
leaps and bounds. It was disclosed
Again II was shown that 1000
farmers Of Wells county attended a
series Of 35 poultry culling demon
STATIONS this fall. A total of 1929
hens were handled and ga dis
carded as culls. These instances are
cited to show that agents are inter
ested IN local rather than general
farming projects.
A group of agents discussing the
best support their work received
were unanimous In saying that the
daily press eXceled. While the
monthly bureau bulletin serves a
purpose. it could not fill the require
ments of regular educational and in
formative service that the daily press
furnishes. II was stated that two
agents of northern Indiana had de-

OF the bureau bulletin since the

Of the latest developments that
touch his interest both locally and
