NOTES FROM OTTAWA -
COUNTY AGENT
FRED GRIMM

Every advisor that attended the
All banquet surely seemed. to have
a good time. l think they went
away refreshed and determined to
do a better job. The program was
about Mrs. Fred Barnes 25 years
as a All Advisor. One can't help
but feel determined to do better
job after seeing the life of this
woman portrayed. Mrs. Barnes
has unselfishly given help to girls
in the Elmore community and l
am sure they expressed their ap-
probation at the banquet.
Mrs. Leslie Hellwig and COM
mittee of Mrs. Joan Lenke and
Mrs. Maynard Yeasting provided
the skit portraying the life of
Mrs. Barnes. Mrs. Raymond Lieske
and daughters handled banquet
arrangements and table decora-
tionS.
Your county agent has, been
attending a tpaining Eoursei in

tails. The dairy Service Unit has
been doing a good job. Attend

thank the Turtle Creek Game Pro.
tective Assn for their contribu.
ton to send All members to a

tribution to be used in the All

William E. Smith, executive
head of the Popcorn Professor!
Assn, sends warning about un
scrupulous operators. These per
sons, he says, sell seed at high
price and promise to buy back
the popcorn. Popcorn now is very
low priced, due to a bumper 1853
crop. So investigate before buy
ing popcorn seed to raise on g
commercial basis.
