Careful Planning Of Bay Of Plenty Farm Schools Suggested
s The opinion that farm schools conducted by Bay of Plenty Federated Farmers should be carefully planned beforehand so that they may be run as efficiently as possible was expressed by the secretary, Mr E. J. Vosper, at an executive meeting held at Whakatane. He suggested that there should be an official opening and closing of each school, a different chairman presiding over the meeting for each speaker and that there be useful exhibits at each school. Further suggestions were that the speakers should be prominent men or wo/nen in their own particular field.
Useful exhibits for display at the schools could, it was thought, be borrowed from Government agricultural ' departments. These could include properly selected turfs from good and bad pastures, seed exhibits, soil maps of Bay of Plenty districts, veterinary exhibits and farm timber, shelter and treatment for such timber.
