Farm Programs Planned To Fit
 Farmer Interests

In order to make certain that only agricultural programs of wide general interest receive en- phasis and study on the part of workers in the local Extension office, a community survey has been undertaken by Parker Les ter, district agricultural agent.
 MT. Lester has outlined a num- Der of subjects in a letter ad- dressed to all farmers in the area included in the Matanuska Valley, Mountain View, Anchor age, Lake Spenard, Potter creek, Moose Pass, Cooper's Landing, Seward, Seldovia, Homer, Ninil- chik, Kasilof and Kenai.
 It is his request that farmers check subjects of interest to them on an enclosed reply card, and return that card to MT. Lester. It is his plan to tabulate returns re- ceived through these cards to de- termine subjects of greatest in- terest to the most farmers. Those subjects will be the 1948 projects for the local Extension office.
 Suggested topics of study
 listed by MT. Lester included
 dairy improvement. vegetable
 production. poultry. hog rais-
 ing. farm record keeping. agri-
 cultural engineering. soils and
 fertilizers. All club work,
 home Identification. soil con-
 servation. home gardens and general crops.
 MT. Lester concluded his let ter with the report that there is a very active home demon stration program planned for the coming year. He asks that letters of inquiry and suggestions con- corning this program be address ed to Miss Marilyn Johnson, dis trict home demonstration agent, at Anchorage.
