Round-table discussions will be a feature of many of the sectional meetings of this year's sessions.

In the agricultural economics section, discussions will deal with the development and efficiency of Missouri's cooperative association, the probable influence of the present war on Missouri agriculture, and plans for achieving greater economic stability during and following this war. The experiences of practical farmers will be featured in the livestock section, as well as reports of experimental work done at the station. Marketing, disease prevention, and management problems will be emphasized in the poultry section. Missouri's dairy farmers will meet for several breed association meetings and for general discussions on the best use of dairy pastures, feeding and management problems, marketing, and other timely topics. In the horticultural section, the Lutheran school.

Those in the picRev. Daniel Oberdieck and Ulrich Irvin Theobald, Edward Brecken- meetings will be conducted largely by round-table discussions on orchard, vegetable and truck crop, landscape gardening and floriculture subjects. Growers will also have the opportunity to visit the experimental greenhouses, gardens, truck crop fields, orchards, and vineyards of the college. Franklin county farmers annually suffer huge losses from insect damage apart for the annual loss to the state which Leonard Haseman, chairman of the entomology department of the college, estimates at an enormous sum varying from $25,000,000 to 000,000. Farmers are urged bring their insect problems to Farm and Home Week for discussion in an effort to reduce this huge loss.

Persons wishing printed Farm and Home Week programs may secure them at the county agent's office. LEADS POULTRY MEN Walter Dowland's Flock Averages 15.2 Eggs.

The total one week was 10,000 letters, representing persons of many denominations and including clergymen of other churches.

As a result of his broadcasting activities since 1931, Dr. Maier has become the spiritual confidant of thousands of persons lacking church connections. His correspondents have included the governors of sevstates, a leading Hollywood executive, an industrialist with a "front-page" name, prisoners in several penitentiaries, a 17-year-old girl who had never been to church and wanted to know what clothes to wear, and miners, soldiers, forest rangers and others in isolated places far from any church. Graduate of Boston University, Concordia Seminary and Harvard, Dr. Maier is a full-time professor at the seminary.

His Lutheran Hour activities are carried on in his leisure hours with the assistance of a large staff of volunteer workers who, like Dr. Maier himself, are compensated only by the satisfaction gained from participation in one of the great evangelistic enterprises of all time. Noted Choral Singing Resumption of the broadcasts will also mark the return of two favorite spiritual choral groups-the Lutheran Hour Chorus and the St. Louis A Cappella Choir. The Lutheran Hour Chorus is composed of 30 voices selected from the nationally-known Concordia Seminary Students' Chorus, and the choir is a mixed chorus of 55 voices whose annual concerts have been heard in many cities.

Both groups are trained and directed by the distinguished choral master, William B. Heyne. The program will be broadcast twice each Sunday for 26 weeksone group of stations being on the air from 1:30 to 2 p. New York time, a second group from 4:30 to 5 p. New York Time.
