Congress Draws
4-H Members
Pennsylvania Tout hpower
Congress is a program for
youth. Their objective is to
help teenagers stimulate other
teenagers to improve their food
habits and to become aware of
the close relationship between
food .habits, nutrition, physi
. cal fitness and health. The
program is sponsored by food
and allied business organiza
tions throughout Pennsylvan
ia.
The 4-H program in Penn
sylvania under the guidance of
the Agricultural and Home
Economics Service is a stron 3
supporter ot this program
The fifth Pennsylvania Con
gress will be held at the
Holiday Motor Hotel in Har
nsburg on March 1, 19 63 To
participate a teenager, 16-3 9
years of age inclusive, in good
health, with a good scholastic
lecord may make application
to attend.
At the Congress the youth
will be interviewed with a
team of judges regarding their
knowledge of food and nutn
tion, with doctors regarding
health asd fitness; they will
participate in tours and will
discuss youth, their problems,
and what youth can do about
them. Boys and girls will be
selected at this State Congress
to represent Pennsylvania at
the National Congress in Chi
sago on March 26, 1963. The
State and National Food Con
ference Committee will pay all
expenses while attending these
conferences.
Farmers Assess
Themselves For
Promotion Work
One of the big assets of
the “Nickels for Know-How”
fertilizer tax program for agri
cultural development in North
Carolina is the flexibility of
the funds' and the speed with
which the funds can he put in
to action, said J W Fitts of
North Carolina State College
dunng the Lime and Fertilizer
Conference Feb 7 at the Penn
sylvania State University.
Although State and Federal
appropriations may be relative
ly large, they are not sufficient
to cover all problems confront
ing agriculture North Caro
lina farmers vote every three
years on whether or not they
will continue to tax themselves
a nickel on each bag of ferti
lizer they buy.
About $lOO,OOO per year is
used from “Nickels for Know-
How” funds, Dr Fitts said.
Since North Carolina has
soils and crops generally re
quiring heavy fertilization, ade
quate funds are collected to
carry on many important func
tions m research and extension
programs.
Dr Fitts said a program to
control tobacco diseases, start
ed in 1955, reduced losses by
some $2O million annually It
is estimated that nematode
control studies have saved N
Carolina tarmers more than $4
million a year.
Dr Fitts feels that perhaps
the most important phase of
the program is the pride of
jiarticipation by fanners With
farmer representatives on the
foundation board from every
county, farmers become aware
of research and extension pro
giams Since the whole pro
giam is aimed ultimately for
farmer use, their mtei est and
participation is important
Farmers support the program
and they, along with all busi
ness dependent upon fanning,
leap’ the benefits' he pointed
out.
