Although the play was slowed up by
inadequate facilities for changing
scenes on the college stage, the inter

highest pitch throughout the produc-

Willie Baxter feels that he needs a

earn enough money to buy a dress suit

Live Stock BREEDERS association, an
nounces that 80 contestants were
awarded gold medals for producing lit
tiers of one ton or better and that IL
others were awarded silver medals for
exceeding 1900 pounds, while the six
low men won bronze medals on lit
tiers weighing 1000 and under 1900

at the annual meeting of the associa-

that contestants must become mem

this not being the case in 1922.
Farm women played a more I'M

the American farm bureau convention
this year than ever before, two OF
them being on the resolutions commit

Texas, and Mrs. Charles Schuttler,
Missouri, on that committee, and did
their part in wading through $50 res

Washington reports that our farm
crops for 1922 were valued at $7,572,-

over the crops of 1921. The increase
in valuation is due largely to higher

this is one of the most dangerous
insect introductions made in this
country in many years. Just wheT
or how this threatened pest reached

but probably was when the depart
