Upsurge in 4-H
Farm Projects
A record enrollment of 968,000 boys and girls in the national 4-H Agricultural program was reported for 1968, according to figures supplied by the Cooperative Extension Service in 50 states and Peurto Rico. This is an increase of nearly 19,000 over the previous year. The popular program covers a broad area of agriculture. Crops, livestock, poultry, management, marketing, experimental and research projects attract young farmers from every' section of the U. S. Since not all farm youths will remain on the farm, the 4-H agricultural program is an important training ground for future careers, says a 4-H spokesman. Agri-business today amploys about 40 per cent of the working population. The 4-H Agrucultural program has been sponsored for 15 years by International Harvester, a pioneer 4-H backer. Incentive awards are provided on an annual basis. Harvester also will be host to 1969 state and national award winners who attend the National 4-H Congress in Chicago. In addition IH hosts a spectacular luncheon for the entire Congress delegation of some 2,000 persons. Scholarships of $600 each will be presented to six national winners during the Congress. All state winners will receive a expense-paid trip to Chicago for the week-long event starting right after Thanksgiving.
Results of increased participation in the program is also reflected in the number of county medal winners last year. Nearly 6,900 young farmers claimed a medal.
