New Holland plans to continue
farming at home, hut with only
50 acres in the home farm and
a 16 year old brother, he knows
he will have to make some
other arrangements too. He
said this week he would like to
go on to college, but has not
made application, and is not
sure just what phase of agri
culture he would like to pur
sue.
Larry and his brother Leon
have had most of the respon
sibility of the farm during the
past year, stripping nine acres
of tobacco in the evenings after
school.
Beginning his farming pro
gram as a freshman with one
gilt and 60 rabbits, Larry has
expanded his program to five
sows, four acres oif tobacco,
two acres of corn, a steer and
about 30 tat hogs this year.
Leon has another four sows
and feeds out another 30 head
of hogs. Their father feeds ab
