Montana WIFE (Women Involved in Farm Economics) announces the winners of their twenty-sixth “The Art of Farming” calendar contest. WIFE received 573 student entries, and we thank the students and their teachers for sending some excellent art that made judging them a challenge. Cash prizes and certificates have been awarded to first, second and third place winners, and certificates for the honorable mention places, in kindergarten through eighth grades. Only 25 drawings can be used on the 2013 calendar that will be ready for distribution in October.
