WHY NOT
A 4-H CLUB

Boys and girls between the
ages of 10 and 20 years are in-
vited to take part in the 4-H
club program which will get
underway during the months of
April and May. 4-H club work
is a program for the rural youth
of Lancaster County and is con-
ducted in cooperation with the
Lancaster County Agricultural
Extension Service. It is a pro-
gram designed to give the
voung folks the same informa-
tion that would be given to the
farmer or homemaker if they
were to ask the help of the Ex-
tension Service. The 4-H pro-
gram is the connecting link be-
tween Lancaster County boys
and girls and the information
obtained by research at Penna.
State College.
The 4-H club program, like
the other services of the Exten-
sion Service is free to the young
folks.
In the 4-H club program the
work is divided into 4-H Agri-
cultural clubs and 4-H Home
Economics clubs. A member in
the 4-H Agricultural club sel-

ects a project of his own choos-
ing on some phase of farm life.
These projects are in dairy, live
stock, field crops or some other
phase of farming. He assumes
the responsibility for the care,
management, and record keep-
ing of his project. In addition
to the project work the 4-H Ag-
ricultural club members attend
a monthly evening meeting dur-
ing the summer months. At
these 4-H meetings club mem-
bers of a community get togeth-
er to discuss their projects, ob-
tain information, and join in
recreational activities. A coun-
ty agent visits the club mem-
ber at least once a year and of-
fers suggestions on the 4-H pro-
ject.
In the 4-H Economics club
work the club members of a 4-
H Club choose a project which
the entire club works on These
clubs meet every two weeks
during the summer months. The
members of these clubs carry

projects in sewing, food prep-
aration, child care and other
