August 16, 2012


Something exciting is happening this next week - school is starting! Many students and mothers may not feel that way though. Our first day of harvest seemed to come around the same time that school started in Max, so we lost 3 of our workers - our sons. So I was one of the not-so-happy Mothers.

Friday, August 24th at 6 p.m. the Senior Citizens of Max will be having their potluck and meeting.
 
Tuesday, August 28th is Picture Day at the Max School.  Smile!

Food prices have taken a hike, in the wrong direction, I'm sure many of you would agree. Especially since 1910! A tidbit from an old newspaper says that on March 4, 1910, Kenmare Flour from Farmers Elevator in Max sold for $3 per 100# or you could buy 1000# for $2.90 per 100#.
