BUSY PROGRAM
OUTLINED FOR
FARM BUREAU

Work for the year was outlined
at the meeting Of the Farm Bureau
directors, held Saturday afternoon
in the county court house. Many
important undertakings are on the
program, indicating an active and
successful year for the association.

a heavy loss in selling their pro
duets.

vited to make survey of the valley
drainage problems and to see what
effect the present drainage system
has had.
The directors met with the county
home department chairmen, who
were holding their regular meeting

cidcd to keep these at $3.50. OF
this amount 81 will be returned to
the Home Department, 80 cents to
