Soil Group Plans
Monthly Broadcasts
First A i r Show Is
‘ W ell-Received’
The Holt Soil Conservation
district supervisors decided at
the regular board meeting held
Thursday. March 11, that they
would undertake their radio
program on a regular monthly
basis over radio station WJAG,
Norfolk. The board felt the in
itial, experimental broadcast on
Wednesday, March 3, was well
received, judged from reports,
und a decision was made to per
petuate the plan.
On Wednesday, March 24, an
additional broadcast will be
made with Everett Mitchell,
famed NBC voice of agriculture,
who spoke at the annual meeting
of the extension service and soil
conservation district last week.
Also on the broadcast will be L.

Newton of Ainsworth, Brown
county agent; A. Neil Dawes of
O’Neill, Holt county agent; Ora
Yarges of Stuart, chairman of
Holt county extension board, and
C. R. (“Bob”) Hill, unit conserva
tionist. This program will be
heard between 10 and 10:15 fol
lowing the “Voice of The Fron
tier.”
The April 7 broadcast will be
an interview with several of the
speakers appearing on the pro
gram at the grassland-livestock
meeting held in Stuart a few
weeks ago. For the May broad
cast, to be aired at 10 a.m., Wed
nesday, May 5, it is hoped to
bring the listeners a rural school
conservation class and an inter
view with the teacher and the
county superintendent. Broad
casts beyond that date have not
been planned but current events
concerning conservation and ex
periences of various cooperators
are expected to make up the
text of succeeding programs.
The county agent endorses
this program whole heartedly
and urges all rural and town
people to stay tuned following
the “Voice of The Frontier” for
news of the Holt soil conserva
tion district on the air.
