MEETINGS NEXT WEEK
Prof. Fltts of O. A. C. will direct
meetings which will be held on the
farm where breeding, feeding, and
dairy herd management will be '"Illus
trated" as well as "talked about.'
The first dnlry farm demonstration
meeting scheduled on the Farm Bu
reau program will be held on the farm
of L. A. Hulburt two miles north of
Toledo Tuesday, April 11th, beginning
at 1 o'clock sharp. It Is expected that
by holding these meetings on the farm
where actual practices and examples
of breeding, feeding and care of ani
mals may be observed that much more
can be accomplished than by merely
talking about such things ln a "hall
In town." Four or five meetings a
year will be held on the same farm,
these farms being known es the "dem
onstration farms" and by keeping sim
ple records, the actual success or fail
ure of the various practices can be
studied. The second demonstration
meeting will be held at Ona on Wed
nesday. The farm to be used will be
announced at a later date.

let tho moonshiner roam at will, mix
ing boope and gasoline thus causing
accidents on our roads, don't vote for
me, for I will sure do all In my power
to stop It (should I be nominated and
