4-H Column Friday Editor's Note
The Friday 4-H column notes space limits for telegram publication. Heidebrecht explains sharp knives speed work. dull knives from bone or table cause sloppy cutting and sore muscles, reducing performance and increasing time off. Gene Schneider of GCCC praises the program for benefits to community, college, and Val-Agri, and hopes for more such projects when feasible.
