Last Meeting Of Class In Poultry Held At Farmer One Night Last Week—Variety Of Subjects Covered By Class. Those Who Attended Farmer, Feb. 28.—The Evening Class in Poultry given by the Depart ment of Vocational Agriculture of | Farmer high school had its last meet ing Monday night of last week. This I was the last of a very successful se ries of meetings which have been held on Tuesday nights of every week since Dcember 7th. Every class meeting had a large attendance which showed the interest in the different subjects which were discussed under poultry. Members of the class expressed themselves by saying that they had obtained some valuable information through the class discussion and thru the points that were brought out by the speaker of each class. We hope to see the members of the class put into practice some of the approved methods of poultry and at the same time use their good judgment in growing into the poultry business. Experience is one of the greatest teachers when we link it up with’the exepriments which have been conducted by others. Those that succeed in any business are those, that make a study and know what they are doing. The subjects that were covered during the series of meetings held by the class were as follows: The Pur pose of Poultry on the Farm, Choos ing the Breed, Feeding, Housing, Dis eases, Parasites, Culling, Incubation and Brooding, etc. The objective of each meeting was to bring up any questions related to each subject and to discuss the approved ways of doing the jobs correctly. \ This is a list of some of those that attended the class: Mrs. M. F. Skeen, Mr, M. Hammond, Miss Ada Ham mondi Mrs. J. R. Morris, Mrs. J. R. Wham, Mrs. J. R. Hammond, Mrs. J. H. Kearns, Mr. G. W. Clay, MUe Hope Hubbard, Mr. C. C. Homey, Mr. B. F. Bingham, Mr. R. W. Fuller, Mr. J. 0. Kearns, Mr, A. f. Macon, Mrs. M. Hammond, Mr. J. R. Morris, Mr, C. C. Homey, Mr. J. R. Wham, Mr. H. C. Nance, Mr. Alton Kearns, Mr. Per cey Morgan, Miss Gertrude Ridge, Mr. Walter Ridge, Mr. T. W. Bing ham, Mr. Z. V. Wrifeht, and others. In the community we have several new poultry houses under construction or finished, ami remodeling of old houses. The incubation and brooding problems has the interest of many at present by the amount of talk one hears, and the number of incubators and brooders in operation. The poultry enterprise and other enterprises in the community are of interest to the agriculture teacher, therefore it will be the aim of the teacher to be of service to the poultry evening class and others in the com munity. —M. R. McLEOD. ious refreshments were served. Tacky Party The members of the Susanna Wes ley Bible class gave a tacky party at the Community House Wednesday night.
