An Evaluation of Our Work

An Evaluation of Our Work
One of the most interesting and
worthwhile programs carried on
in Garrett County is the Farming
for Better Living project.
Each year, the keeping of the
record book, an important part of
the project, serves as a check for us
to see how well we do our job of
farming. This book, worked out
by agricultural experts and practi-
cal farmers, gives much valuable
information on the care and feed
ing Of live stock and poultry. how
to make the best possible use of
all our assets of soil and equip
ment.
Suggestions for feeding the fam

These things are important to a
family's well-being and happiness.
1t is well to evaluate them once a
year.
Other questions are. How is your
home arranged for family living?
Are there conveniences in the
kitchen? Is it light, attractive and
step-saving? Can your work as a
homemaker be done easily and eff
ficiently? Questions to make US

Senate Cloakroom
By J. GLENN BEALL
United States Senator from
Maryland

The meetings of the Interna-
tional Labor Organization in Ge-
ncva wero encouraging; the art gal
lcries in Amsterdam and other
cities we've lovely; the hospitality
everywhere was almost as warm
as that which is traditional in our
own Maryland
That, in capsule form, is a report
on my rip to Europe But it needs
one important addition
It's good to be home.
The incest thing about the whole
trip, despite the profitable work l
accomplished and the new friend
ships made, was coming into the
New York harbor and seeing that
very beautiful lady, the Statue of
Liberty.
Always Home
In retrospect. however, | feel
like the man who wrote Il Never
Left Home"
Reminders of Maryland popped
up in each of the five countries
that Mrs Beall and l visited.
In Switzerland, for instance, |
toured one of the many cigarette
manufacturing plants which adver-
tise Maryland tobacco as their spe-
cialty.
Souvenirs indicating just how
famous our homegrown product
has become are now lined up along
the top of my office bookcase,
where you are welcome to examine
them. They are packages of ciga-
rCtteS from five major companies,
all of which splash the name
Maryland over the wrappings of
their products in large bold type.
On several packages, the letters
are as prominent as those of the
brand names.
They're extremely satisfied with
our tobacco i'll Switzerland, and
they prove it by maintaining a po-
Sltion as one of our best cash Gus
toners Before leaving, | promised
the Swiss that l would do all in my
power to preserve the trade rcla-
tons which have been so advan-
t1gcous for their country and ours.
Fellow MarYIanders
Another constant reminder of
home was the frequency with which
| was greeted by men and women
who proudly proclaimed that they
were fellow Mdrylanders."
Many of them were natives of our
Free State. But scores of others,
especially Government representa-
tivcs, were persons who adopted
Maryland as their legal residence
during tours of duty in Washing
ton
Judging from the overseas con
stitucnts" | met during my month
abroad, | can testify that our State
is ably and charmingly represented.
Harmony Attempts
One of the most gratifying cX-
periences of my trip was gained at
the LILO. meeting, where repre-
scntatives of management and la
Dor appeared 90 be making sin
cerc effort to find answers to their
mutual problems.
It occurred to me that the or
ganizatiOn'S honest devotion to its
purpose is probably the main rea-
son that it is the sole survivor of
the intergovernlnental agencies set
up after World War |.

the Labor Department asked me to
attend the conference because of
the insight it gave me into the man.
