Extensionists To Meet-A strong
program has been prepared for the
annual conference of agricultural ex-
tensiOnists to be held Jan. 10, II and
IL at University farm. County and
home demonstration agents, farm
bureau representatives club leaders
and agents are expected to attend.
Institute Annual Out-In Mime
sofa Farmers Institute Annual No.
80 fresh from the press, the general
subject of Farm Development" is
treated from almost every angle and
particularly as it relates to the
northern part of the state where for
est and muskeg are being converted
into good farming land. A. J. Nc
Guire formerly superintendent of the
experiment station. at Grand Rapids,
draws on his experience of many
years in the north to suggest a>crop-
ping system, for new cutover farm.
o. l. Bergh, present superintendent
at Grand Rapids, submits plans for
cropping farms already developed.
These are but sample articles in a
list embracing practical information
and advice on all phases of land
clearing, farm drainage, dairying,
beef, sheep and swine growing and
the opportunities to be found in bee
culture and poultry raising. While
largely devoted to the peculiar pro-
hems of the northland, the Annual
has its appeal for farmers in all
parts of Minnesota. Hints in select
ing farm and in the use of credits
in developing farm business apply
to all section as also do articles on
peat land improvement and farm
drainage for larger and better crops.
Copies of the Annual can be obtained
by applying to the Agricultural Ex-
tension Division, University Farm,
st. Paul, Mimi, and enclosing five
cents to cover postage.
Handicap Removed-Watch Min
Hesota club juniors in the 1921 stock
judging contests at the National
Dairy show and the International
livestock Exposition. State leaders
ut University Farm have decided
that Minnesota's team of three shall
be chosen hereafter at the state fair
rather than late in the fall at con-
test at University Farm. Hereto
fore Minnesota boy and girl judges
have been selected only few days
before they were to appear in the
Chicago competition. Generally they
were strangers to each other; there
was no time for systematic coach
nag or the teaching of all team work.
Georgia's team, which won first
place at the recent International was
chosen as far back as August and
had spent months in judging farm
animals before it was called into &C
ton at Chicago. Similarly, other
teams which ranked higher IN the
competition than Minnesota had had
1aenths for training where Minneso-
to had had only days. With the re-
noval of this handicap, by providing
for the selection of judges at the
fair in September, future teams from
Minnesota are bound to be at or near
the top.
