majority of the members think they are
more successful when they are stuck -
some use binder twine with sticks about
8ft. apart, others use wire, while
some do not stick them at all, planting
an extra amount and using straw
for them to rest upon - Frank
Snowden said he was raised on
sticks and approves on them!
Some think best to plant lima
beans with eyes down, while others
think it makes no difference -
Clarence Gilpin planted [?] rows
each May, and one planting came
up 15 minutes ahead of the other -
we do not know whether this was
old time or new time!
Fred Stabler brought a lot of fine
broom corn seed to plant.
Brooke Grove brought violet plants
for distribution.
We were very glad to have one of
our newly elected families, Della
Brooke, present at this meeting.
Mary Hutton and Clarence Gilpin were
appointed as readers for the next meeting.
