FARM AND HOME WEEK 



Attractive Program Arranged for 

 Farmers and Homemaker's 



A program involving more than eighty ' 

 speakers and all sorts of demonstrations, ] 

 tours and meetings has finally been ar- 

 ranged for the seventh annual meeting 

 of farmers and home makers at the agri- 

 cultural College at Amherst July 28 to

Speakers, the best that could be found, 

 are coming fiom far and near to contri- 

 bute to this program. 



These people and many more will dis- 

 cuss farm and home problems and help us 

 to a broader view of affairs at the various 

 meetings that will be in continuous ses- 

 sion for these last four days of July. 



Write the Extension Service, North- 

 ampton, for complete program. 



county. The men visited on the alfalfa 

 trips had half as many acres. Every one 

 of them is a booster for the crop. They 

 all say they have just started with the 

 crop. When the next census is taken, we 

 would not be surprised to see these few 

 men having as much alfalfa as the whole 

 county had six years ago. 



Director Haskell of the Experiment 

 Station attended the Easthampton meet- 

 ing. He expected to be back in Amherst 

 at 8.30. He would have had to drive 

 "some", to get home at 10.30. The dairy- 

 men at the.se meetings were surely in- 

 terested in alfalfa. 



A good many men were impressed by 

 the fact that alfalfa was holding its own 

 against witch grass at Earle Bagg's. It 

 won't unless there is plenty of lime in the 

 land. 



Mr. Haswell used twelve loads of man- 

 ure as a top dressing on his two year old 

 stand last fall. The crop shows that it 

 paid.
