SALEM ADOPTS COMMUNITY FARM BUREAU ORGANIZATION Salem is the first community in New London county to take definite steps to- ward a community farm burcau organiza- tion. At a recent meeting in Grange hall in Salem a program of work for that com- munity was adopted. The home demon- stration agent and the county agent each outlined possible activities Which could be carried out. The following is the community farm bureau program as adopted at this meet- ing: 1. Home nursing. 2. Balanced meals. 3. Dairy improvement—with special reference to better bulls. 4. Lime and clover. 5. Poultry. Projects 1 and 2 will be carried out by the women, while 3, 4 and 5 wiil be taken care of by the men. The latter three projects were chosen becaues it was found that dairying and poultry raising constis tuted the two lZrgest sources of income and, is improvement could be. brought about in these lines, increased income would follow. { A community committee of men and four women were elected to Uraw up definite plans for carrying out this pro- gram. The committee follow Ira D. Gifford, Fred Ames, N..C. Clark, David Simonowitz, Joseph Dytko, Mrs. William Darling, Mrs. John Fraser, Mrs. Carl Rogers, M Alice Houston. After this committee has made plans, another meeting will be held, at which the committee will report, of the community will have an oppe ty changes they and the people.

This is an increase of five eggs over the preceding Wweek and 125 better than the five year average. The Leghorns seem to be coming into their own as the season ad- vances. Their production for the week was 59.1 per cent. According to breeds, the yield was Rocks 52.8, Wyandottes 52.8, Reds 46.9 and the miscellaneous 49.1 Per cent.

After that, he could not re- call what happened, until he awoke the {next day and found his money gone. He alieged Tuesday he met an acquaintance of his from New Haven and in a conversation he had with the New Haven man, he learned that Kovalenko was working in a rub- ber factory in the Elm city.
