On behalf of the Trustees for County Aid to Agricul- ture and the co-operating organizations, I am glad to pre- sent this brief statement of activities in Wilbraham for the year 1921 and to ask for a continuance of direct support through town appropriation for the coming year. It would seem that the amount appropriated should be at least as large as the amount for 1921, viz., $150.


70


Lee W. Rice has been League Director for Wilbraham for 1921, and, although re-elected for 1922, has requested that he be relieved. Fred A. Warren of Wilbraham has been a director-at-large, and has been re-elected for 1922. Clarence P. Bolles is chairman of the Wilbraham branch of the Farm Bureau. Miss Evanore Beebe and Mrs. J. M. Pickens have been representatives in the board governing the Home-Making department throughout the county. Any of these persons will be glad to give further information, and a detailed printed report of the year's work will be mailed to anyone who wishes it.


Respectfully submitted, R. C. EDLUND, Managing Director.
