State Farm Bureau Sets Meeting Date
The annual meeting of Kansas
State Farm Bureau will be held Feb
ruary SO in connection with Farm
and Home Week, at Kansas State
Agricultural College, according to
Charles R. Weeks, secretary. Mr..
Weeks states that speakers who have
been obtained for the meeting include
Mrs. Chas. W. Sewell, Otterbein, Ind
lana; Ex-Governor Frank o. Lowden
of Illinois, and c. J. Fawcett, director
of wool marketing, American Farm
Bureau Federation.
Mrs. Sewen will discuss the rela-
tionship of women to the farm bu-
reau. She was obtained as a speaker
because it was she that urged part
for women in the American Farm
Bureau Federation, which led to the
appointing of a women's committee.
Kansas State Farm Bureau is inviting
every county, which has a home
demonstration agent or a wOmen's
department of the farm bureau, to
send a woman delegate this year. It
is probable that women's work in
Kansas will be definitely outlined at
that time.
Mr.. Lowden will speak both before
the farm bureau and before the dairy
mems association. He is president of
the Holstein-Friesian Association of
America.
Mr.. Fawcett viii tell how the 49,
100000 pound wool pooi handled by

the Kansas wool was in this pool and
brought prces, which in a number of
cases were double that offered by
country dealers.
