Demonstration Try
Outs For State Fair
Seven demonstration teams com
peted at the Farm Bureau office to
see who would be eligible to go to
the State Fair. These winners will
be announced soon. There will be
a winning team picked in the fol
lowing projects: Girl's Room Im
provement, Cooking and Clothing.
Miss Noyes of the Extension Service
aided in selecting the winning teams.
Judging Demonstrations
Two teams will be chosen from
the following projects: Clothing, and
Coking. There were twelve tried
out for the cooking team and seven
for the clothing. Three club mem
bers will be chosen on each team.
Health Contest
There were about twenty girls
and boys examined in the Health
contest. One boy and one girl in the
Junior class will be chosen, ages
ten to fifteen and one boy and one
girl in the Senior class, ages fifteen
to twenty.
More Games for Conmmnity Picnics
'More new games suitable for pic
nics have been recommended and
published in Extension Circular 542.
These games are designed to inter
est the onlookers as well as those
who take part in them. They have
proved very successful where they
have been tried.
Duck ball, relay, rope jumping re
lay, and hoop relay are some of the
new games. Kick ball is another
game similar to regular baseball. It
is played with a rubber ball 6 to
8 inches in diameter. Batters kick
the ball rolled from the pitcher.
Three relay games popular with
older men and women are given in
this circular. The hoop relay game is
liked best by boys and girls 14 to 16
years old. Duck ball should be open
to anyone from 15 years up. Suc
cess or failure or games at a com
munity picnic depend almost wholly
upon the leader and his assistants,
this circular says. A detinite program
of contests and games should be out
prior to the picnic and everything
run off on schedule.

to provide good pasture until late
in the fall. It is used in the tem
porary pasture rotation at the col
lege of agriculture.
Farmers who now rely upon tem
porary pastures may be able to use
a ortation similar to that employed
on the college of agriculture experi
ment farm. The land is spring seed
ed to sweet clover without a nurse
crop. This is ready for pasturing
about June 29 and furnishes feed
until November 1.
The following spring the sweet
clover is again pastured from May
to" July 20. During July or early
August it is plowed up and seeded
to fall rye. Rye makes good pasture
for livestock until ' late in the fall
and again early in the next spring.
About May 20 the rye is either
plowed or listed and planted to corn,
cane, or sudan grass. This system
of providing temporary pastures is
very satisfactory for farmers having
sufficient time to do the summer
plowing of the sweet clover sod.
firain farmers may find that thresh
ing conflicts with the summer seed
bed preparation.
