program but can give some
highlights. Saline Valley 3Farms,
Inc., have 600 .acres which are put
to good use with the aid ,of the latest in farm machinery and. equipment. The pictures showed operation at spraying time, picking of
the fruit from well-laden tre:es, haying time, the little lake which pro-!
vides good swimming and bathing
in summer and skating, etc., in the
winter; the recreation 3hall wliich is
being used more, and more by employees and other groups; the canning factory, where much of the
fruit and vegetables raised are prepared for sale to a high-class trade
in Ann Arbor, Detroit and Birmingham; the making of sausage from
the best of pork raised on. the 3farm
and which commands a price of; -35
cents per pound; the fine herd of
Guernsey cattle, and fine horses; and
many, many other views. We
recommend to our readers tliat if
an - opportunity presents itself, .to. see
this film that all will try to -do
so.
An average of 90 chickens are
dressed for market every week.
After the prepared . papers there
was time for discussion of questions.
These were of general interest and
value. Much helpful information
gained in this manner. Here are
some typical questions which were
discussed. "Does it pay to keep a
wood lot?" What is the best and
most economical way to take care
of a crop of .-clover?'/, "What.i-is
the most economical "way of hand^
ling a crop of. corn for. fat stock
feeding?" "What can *we do toward
the. betterment of our country
roads?" . .- ,;....
At one meetmg ?G. .L. Hoyt, H.
D. Piatt, Mr. and 3M3rs. A. A. Wood,
Arba Hurd- and 3Mrs.-j Piatt- discussed the question, "3Has|'■Che new machinery had a tendency to drive.the
boys away from theffarm.?"
"The best" way tot produce and
dispose of a crop of | potatoes, also
best- varieties,'' was a -paper -by- A.
G. Cobb, the discuslion. was-led
by B. N. Smith. "Tie; agricultural
fairs and the benefit] the farmers
might derive from attending them,"
he has done advanced work at tlie
University- of Michigan, University]
of Washington and Stanford Univer-j
sity. Fqr 16 years he has taught
agriculture. For two terms he;
served on the state board of edu-;
cation in Washington and has been
associated with school systems in
eight different states. 3For several
years he served on the teachers' examining board in Lenawee county.
During his stay in Saline Mr.
Jewell organized the 3Future Farmers' Fair, wliich is one of the big
events of autumn. He also established the Community Father and
Son banquet, now an annual affair.
His work with his boys has been
such that he has inspired them to
accomplish success in their chosen
projects. Two of his boys attended
the National 3FFA convention hi
Kansas City; many others have
won awards with hogs, cattle and
potatoes exhibited at the state and
county fairs. j
3M3r. Jewell will be greatly missed
in the school and vicinity where
he took such an active part in
anything that promoted community
pride and civic betterment. He was
a staunch member of the Saline
Rotary club and active in all its
undertakings. He has a son who

comes Sunday for an engagement
of two days, as they both were directed and produced by Ernest Lu-

This attraction stars Margaret
Sullavan and James Stewart in the
leading roles with Frank Morgan in
a supportingi role.
Ernest Lubitsoh lias gone to simple, human realism for the theme of
his latest picture. It is thte story
of the owner of a little shop and
his clerks. Their joys and sorrows,
their relations with one another and
changes in ther relations, are -woven j
into a fascinating narrative of the'
everyday events in the lives of everyday people.

After the prepared . papers there was time for discussion of questions. These were of general interest and value. Much helpful information gained in this manner. Here are some typical questions which were discussed. "Does it pay to keep a wood lot?" What is the best and most economical way to take care of a crop of .-clover?'/, "What.i-is the most economical "way of hand^ ling a crop of. corn for. fat stock feeding?" "What can *we do toward the. betterment of our country roads?" . .- ,;.... At one meetmg ?G. .L. Hoyt, H. D. Piatt, Mr. and 3M3rs. A. A.

Fqr 16 years he has taught agriculture. For two terms he; served on the state board of edu-; cation in Washington and has been associated with school systems in eight different states. 3For several years he served on the teachers' examining board in Lenawee county. During his stay in Saline Mr. Jewell organized the 3Future Farmers' Fair, wliich is one of the big events of autumn. He also established the Community Father and Son banquet, now an annual affair. His work with his boys has been such that he has inspired them to accomplish success in their chosen projects. Two of his boys attended the National 3FFA convention hi Kansas City; many others have won awards with hogs, cattle and potatoes exhibited at the state and county fairs. j 3M3r. Jewell will be greatly missed in the school and vicinity where he took such an active part in anything that promoted community pride and civic betterment.
