LETTER
TO THE EDITOR
Dear Editor:

Dear Editor:
How / wish l could mark my ''X"
November 8 for the beautiful new
swimming pool! l darn near bawled
when ! saw the picture in the Toledo
Blade of the one forlorn person
looking at the desolate Buckeye,
scene of my happiest childhood
hours. How sad | feel for the child
rem who never got to swim there.
What could be more perfect To-
cation or combination than what is
proposed? l personally prefer a
pool-no fish, twigs, leaves. But /
couldn't resist if given the oppor-
tunity to dive deep into that cool,
black, spring water to take one more
look for "bottle caps".
Some people drive miles for the
thrill of a ride on the new turnpike.
Believe me, I'll drive 70 miles for a
swim in Bluffton's new pool al
though I've got all of Gods Lake
Erie to swim in. I'll even have to
come by ferry boat to get there. But
there is just nothing in the world
like Gods Buckeye!
Extremely sincerely,

BLUFFTON'S FORTUNATE To-
cation in the middle of rich agri-
cultural section is we'll illustrated in
chart recently prepared by "Farm
Journal"
Allen, Hancock, and Putnam coun-
ties are we'll above the average for
state and country in agricultural
production, ownership of tools of
production, and in standard of liv-
ing on the farms.
The average Ohio county pro-
duces agricultural products at
the rate of about eight million
dollars worth a year. Allen cOun-
ty's production is $9,656,449
Hancock county, $12,956,0S1; and
Putnam county, $13,637,945. The
average for the entire u. S. is
$7,179,O26.
The average number of farms per
county in Ohio is 2,265 and the aver
age number of tractors per county is
1886. Allen county has 1850 farms
with 1888 tractors; Hancock county,
1865 farms with 2,81O tractors; and
Putnam county, 2,601 farms owning
1912 tractors.
1t is interesting to note that
while the average is less than
one tractor per farm in Ohio,
there are more than one tractor
to the farm in Hancock and Put
nam counties.
The standard Of living index, which
averages 148 for the state as a whole
