Searl and Steph en Davis attended meetings of the Farm Managers Association at valentine several veek.s ago. Highlighting the trip briefly, Davis told of visiting the many large ranches in the Valentine area, and also told of witness ing branding, vaccinating and other activities associated with the large herds. Visits to the national park where herds of buffalo were viewed also inter ested the farm managers. Outlining the general pur poses of Farm Managers, Davis explained that advancements in agricultural practices make it necessary for farm managers to be completely familiar with con servation practices, hybrid 3eeds, land values, all types of buildings, animals and mach inery. The group was feted by the Sandhills Cattle Association, University of Nebraska and the Chamber of Commerce at Val entine. It is a member of the American Society of Farm Man agers and Rural Appraisers.
