FARM BUREAU WORK
Review of Years Accomplishment in
Hancock County.

A banner year in agricultural and
home economics work has just been
completed by the Farm Bureau and
extension service in Hancock county.
Hundreds of persons were reached
and benefited by work in farm man
agement, poultry, dairy, orchard,
boys and girls clubs, clothing, mil
linery, foods and household manage
ment projects.
Eight poultry accounts which had
been kept in 1928 were summarized.
while thirty new accounts were
started in 1924. Eighteen farm ac-
counts which had been kept in 1928
were summarized, and twenty new
ones started.in 1924. This shows the
increased interest on the part of the
farmer in wanting to know where his
money is coming from and where it
is going. A special meeting for the
discussion of farm management was
held at Hancock, where M. d. Jones,
farm management specialist, adj
dressed more than thirty-five farmers
and showed them lantern slides on
modern devices.
Under the poultry project, poultry
men were given instruction in capon
izing, were taught how to Gull their
flocks and thus eliminate the non
producers, and were taught the Sc
lection of breeders through nine
demonstrations attended by 100
persons. In addition to the above,
killing and picking demonstrations
were given, which showed the proper
method of killing and marketing
poultry.
Eight hundred and fifteen herds,
comprising 3046 cows, were tested
for tuberculosis under the direction
of the extension service, Farm Blu
reau and State department OF agrl-
culture. Fifty of the dairymen in
the county CARRIED the know-your-
COW project.
Forty-eight grating demonstra-
lions were conducted under the
orchard program, and were attended
by more than 800 orchardists in the
county. At these demonstrations,
! the county agent illustrated the best
methods of grating, having the men
conduct the work so as to gain eX-
perience. Orchard management
meetings, spraying demonstrations,
pruning demonstrations, and demon
STATIONS for laying out orchards,
were conducted in addition to the
grating demonstrations. Three hun
dred and fifty-four trees were pur-
chased by the farmers of Hancock
county through the Farm Bureau
pool this spring. Nine orchard
fertilization demonstrations were
held in the county,
The enrolment in the boys and
girls agricultural and home econo-
mics clubs totaled $40 during the
past year, 15S being boys and 1872
girls. OF the $40 who started the
work, So completed the years pro-
gram and reported last month at the
county contest. OF these eighty-one
; were girls.

the work done in home economics
