Mr. w L Taplin, the Executive
Secretary, is at home in East Cor
inth assisting in the sugaring opera
tions on his farm. He will doubtless
not be back in the regular employ of
the Farm Bureau until later in the
Spring.
Plans are already under way for
the crop and fertilizer demonstra-
tons in the county during the coming
season. 1t is expected there will be
as many or more corn variety demon
strations as were established last
year. These attracted wide atten-
ton and interest last year and re-
suited in determining for number
of farmers in the county the varieties
of corn they will plant this season.
1t is hoped that more definite fertil-
izer demonstrations will be establish
ed this year including additional
lime demonstrations.
