Swat tho Digger AT TALENT. MAR. 14TH Ye poultrymen of Jackson county, get out your red pencil and mark up next Wednesday as a red letter day for poultry interests. Then plan on driving in from wherever you are to Talent for a good rouBlng poultry dis cussion. Bring your questions with you. Professor Crosby from O. A. C. will be present for one of the four season al meetings which are held each year in connection with poultry demon stration farms. Tho farm in ques tion this year is that of II. I). Nye in Talent. To insure dry footln? tho meeting will bo held in the city hall which Is only a short distance from the farm. Plan to bo there at one thirty so that if an inspection of the plant is desired, this may be made and the meeting proper may start sharp at 2 o'clock. These meetings always prove popu lar and poultrymen of all sections will be well repaid for coming any dis tance. The problemb connected w'.th hatching and Incubation will bo the principal theme. Tho work of tho Farm Bureau Is laid on tho broad foundation of patri otic service; service not only to the farmor himself, but to our country and to our civilization. , Tho work is necessarily very largely educa tional. The farmer objects vigorously to bolus lifted bodly out of tho well worn rut he has traveled so long, but the education of tho boys and girls along new lines of thought soema to bo a more promising undertaking and here is where the boys' and girls' club work comes inv It Is a fact that Is all too apparent that tho balance of advantages and remuneration as between tho rural and industrial centers havo been dis turbed to the degree that tho farms have suffered the loss of a very large per cent of their young people as well aa the older ones, and this has become a very aorlous situation In our economic life. Any project that promises to bring about more satisfactory condi tions by which the boys and girls can be kept on the farms should receive the hearty support of all good citi zens, and the Farm Bureau manage ment feels that this is a very fertllo field for its educational work. Some of the Jackson county com munities have already done splendid work along club work lines. Just cne of many such may be cited as an ex ample: This year a calf club of eight mem bers, five boys and three girls, has been organized, and as their comma nity is strong on dairying, great benofits are expected from their work. Last year two boys from this club won. prizes In tho judging con test of tho calf 'dub at the County Fair and were given the choice of a - mmm "BrT OF BRO MRftKETTl&- I HIS PRW.ES RRE VERY DOCTOR v LOW AND H& CREDIT 15 Wc THIS TTr.rlO IN m EXTREMES ,ERIOU& HELP YOU CifvrvW I CONDITION.
