Mrs. Walter Steglich of the Pecan community in Bell County fills one of the pockets of a down comforter. After being taught how to make comforters by Extension Agent Tina Stewart, Mrs. Steglich made two comforters for herself and three others which she sold. In addition, she planned to make one for each of her three daughters. Filling the eleven pockets with three pounds of down obtained from her flock of over thirty geese took Mrs. Steglich half an hour with the aid of a vacuum sweeper.
