There was also a fine display of
high grade cattle, horses and other
stock. Take it all in all, the meeting
of the Golden Belt Fair Association
was as good or better than any pre-
ceding meeting.
COUNTY FARM BUREAU NOTES
The local produce men want all the
chickens they can handle in the next
two weeks. The county agent has
issued the last call for those who wish
to get rid of the boarder hens. If
you have a flock and want it culled,
call SCI and get date. You do not
have to be a member of the Farm Bu-
reau to take advantage of this oppor-
tunity. If you see the advantage,
you will want your flock culled; if you
do not see the good of it have the
county agent or your neighbor who
culls tell you about it. At any rate,
get rid of the boarder hens and there
by save enough feed to raise a flock
next summer.
The exhibit of the Pleasant Hill
Homemaker's Club at the Golden Belt
Fair shows what a little training, a
little time, and little work can
bring about in q community. For
the benefit of those of you SwhO did
not see the exhibit, let Us explain:
The display consisted of dress forms
and hats made by the ladies of the
club, with the assistance of special
lists from the State Agricultural Col
lege. The cost of the dress forms is
a little les than a dollar and a quar-
ter, and the hats ranged from two to
four dollars. Five women working
together can make a dress form in
less than two hours, three women can
make one, but of course the time
would be longer. The amount of
time put on the hats depends upon
individual ability, and the type of hat
made, but day or day and a half is
the maximum required. Do you see
any saving? Price dress forms at
any department store, then do the
same about hats at your milliner's
and answer your own question.
These specialists who taught and
assisted these women are always at
your service and will be glad to help
you, too, to have a dress form and
bran new winter hat.
Get together, talk it over, see the
county agent, get a date, and then
the dress form and hat.
Two clubs have already had the
dress form work. When one or more
finish this phase of the work, another
type of work will be commenced. AL
together now. LET'S GO!
