Dl4—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, September 29,1984 Youthful Charolais breeder (Continued from Page Dl2) never ceases,” Kirk adds about his 4-H projects and their chores at home to maintain their stock. And, their stock is not limited to beef animals. Although the boys had to give up their horses because of lack of room and an ever in creasing Charolais herd, they have goats and pigs as additional projects.. Kirk is in his fourth year with swine and dairy goats. He at tributes the fact of their obtaining goats to the current Berks County Dairy Princess, Debbie Price, who coaxed him to enter an essay contest to win a goat. Well, he won the goat and now the herd numbers over five animals. The boys admit that “mom” does the milking and they feed any excess milk to their pigs. Kent also mentions that he looks forward to training his large doe to pull a cart. The boys state that the pigs are the easiest, but add that they do not appreciate getting “messed up” by the exuberance of their animals DON’T BUY Before you see us or you will be paying too much 4 MODELS LEFT MUST BE SOLD ACT NOW!

She adds that she enjoys helping them with their projects and remains very proud of their achievements and hard work that they put into it. “We were both 4-H members,” she explains about her husband and herself. “He (their father) found that it was helpful to him. That’s why he wanted the boys to get interested in it.” “There is a lot of good stuff in 4- H,” Kirk concludes. He has par ticipated in County Council, State 4-H Achievement Days, leadership congress, and capital days at Harrisburg. “It’s a nice mixture of kids from all different clubs,” he says and then adds that he has made more friends in 4-H then in all his time in school. When asked what he counts as most valuable for his future goals of college and a career in ag business, Kirk finds it hard to point to any one thing. “My experience in 4-H,” he concludes.
