Lessor amounts of time was spent on safety, family life, health foods and nutrition, clothing, house and surround ings, farm buildings and farm mechanical equipment, planning and management of the farm business, wildlife and forestry. In carrying out these extension activities, there were 972 farm and home visits made, 19G4 people called at the office in person and 3,377 telephone calls received. One of the methods used In keeping people informed of new advances in homemaklng and agriculture is through news stories. During the year 422 news releases were made and 8,807 educational bulletins were dis tributed and 35 adult result dem onstrations set up which includ ed phases in weed control, pas- nr.,t ,-nn,,, imnmvement. luif aiiyi -..-x-.-. . crops and livestock improvement and Irrigation methods.
