however, on both Lookout

follow in Dade County when

won't be likely to start a feud.

nooga. Farming is probably
Dade’s chief industry; there
are prominent cattlemen, tree
farmers, and just plain farmers
who were brought up on farm¬

anything else. If they did, where
would Dade County be today,
or, for that matter, where
would the United States be
without its farmers and agri-
cultural extension service?
Each farmer is a hero in
own right; it takes an
lot of ^ork to keep the soil in
good condition, to keep it pro¬
ducing year after year, and
fight insect pests which are
constantly on the lookout for a
good place to strike. Cotton

don’t agree with that one, you

All in all, Dade Countians are
pretty solid citizens and pro¬

on if trouble comes around. The
women have vowed ;o leave no
stone unturned in the improve¬
