This Day in History: 1947-04-18
At the Fardale Community Association meeting, it was announced that the emergency blood donor list had reached forty names. The annual plant sale was cancelled in favor of a cake sale to be held on May 17th under the chairmanship of Mrs. David Pollock. The main speaker of the evening was County Agricultural agent Charles MacDougal. A topic of special interest to the attending members was his suggestions of what sprays and dusts to use in case the tomato blight reappeared this year. (Bristow)
