Robert Marsh Attends Farm And Home Week Assistant County Agent Robert Si Marsh attended the 46th annual Farm and Home Week Program at State College June 7-10. There were many interesting and instructive classes at the Farm and Home Week and the program as a whole was excellent. The Challenge Program was pre sented in a most interesting manner by leaders from counties which have an excellent program in progress. The Dairy Day program was held all day Wednesday and tours were conducted to the Central Experiment Station farm and the new Animal Di- j sease Laboratory. The afternoon pro- j gram was devoted to exhibits and, demonstrations at the College Dairy I Farm, along with several interesting j talks concerning problems of the dairy industry. One of the most interesting discus sions attended was the one on “Farm Policy and Price Support Programs." This discussion was started by short talks concerning various phases of the j price support programs by members of the State College staff. After these short talks, the group was divided in to smaller groups for panel discus sions. Each group was given an op portunity to discuss the price support program and to ask questions concern ing it to the various speakers. The program was concluded with a very thrilling pageant which depicted 440 years of progress in Home Dem onstration Work in North Carolina. The pageant was put on by agricul tural leaders and farm women from the counties in which the early events actually took place. David L. Bass Now Stationed In Germany Pvt. David L.
