I last year. They amounted to
$16682.
Now the 4-H girls won’t have
a special advisor.
"I guess
the county home demonstration
agent to spend more time with
the girls and let the older wo-
men take care of themselves,"
said one commissioner.
Deaf Smith County’s rural
youth program is just now get-
ting on its feet. About three
years ago the Sadie Lee Oliver
Club was organized. About the
same time the Adrian Club was
organized. So in 1946 Deaf Smith
had two organizations for rural
girls age 10-18. clubs where they
could meet and learn to cook
and sew, can food and raise
chickens and be proud they
lived on a farm.
Tire popularity of the clubs
grew until within the past two
years seven more have been or-
ganized. Now they reach out to
include 120 girls, mostly the
young adolescents who need I
companionship and interesting '
activities to keep them busy and I
the security of having someone j
older to direct their work and ;
help them with their problems. I
Arrived First Of May
Doris came to Deaf Smith
May 1. Since then she’s had !
charge of these younger members j
of the women's division of the
statewide extension service. She’s |
directed their programs on
clothing, teaching them to make
smart and inexpensive clothes
for school and dress wear. That1
not only took a drain off family |
budgets, it also gave the girls j
the assurance that comes with I
looking well and the self re- !
iiance that goes hand in hand !
with constructive talents.
There were club programs on |
baking, too, where the just- j
learning-to-cook-girls got sound j
advice in accurate baking prin- |
cipals. Ten year olds turned out
luscious cakes and cookies that
sometimes even made their
mothers a bit envious.
This year the statewide 4-H
program is emphasizing poultry j
raising and clothing project^, so
the „ girls were encouraged to I
raise 25 chickens and to make at '
least two school dresses.
Wi;h their poultry care project
they learned, to feed and care
for baby chickens, to cull the
flocks, and how to put the pro-
ject on a paying basis.
Gardeners
Many of the girls raised gar-
dens. They are also learning food
preservation principals.
And just recently Doris and
the enthusiastic 4-H workers
who had earned that trip went
to the 4-H encampment at Ci-
marron.
Yes. there are other youth or-
ganizations In Hereford, but
there aren’t any others that are
I designed to meet the needs of
j rural girls, to teach them home-
making and farm-living prin-
cipals. Deaf Smith County has
more 14 year olds enrolled in 4-H
■work than any other surround-
ing county.
And now the director of those
clubs must go away, just when
the work is going so nicely, just
when the girls are so interested
and leadership will be transferr-
ed to the home demonstration
agent, a thoroughly capable
leader, but one who must spread
her work over 14 home demon- j
stration clubs as well as nine I
4-H clubs.
Rather Be Assistant Here
“From here I will probably go
to a county agent's job some-
where. There are more open-
ings for them than for assis-
tants. But, really. I’d rather
work with the young folks in
their 4-H Club work.
Deaf Smith’s whole economy Is
based in the main on agri-
culture. The success of agricul-
ture enterprises rests on the
Individual farmer, the success of
Us future rests on how interest-
ed the farm boys and farm girls
are In remaining In rural agri-
culture.
The county, itself, has always
been interested in youth, in
their activities and in 4-H work.
Last year they raised $1,400 just
for the 4-H Livestock show.
That’s two hundred dollars more
than Is needed to pay an as-
sistant agent for one year.
But the county doesn’t have
any money they say
“If the people want to raise
their tax evaluation, then we
will have money,” said John
Morris.

Fairview 4-H Club
Has Back Programs
Members of the Fairview 4-H
Club met Saturday morning at
the home of Mary Womble. Com-
bining several back programs
they had missed, the girls ob-
served demonstrations on mak-
ing bound-button holes, baking
a cake and construction prob-
lems.
Plans were completed for a
program to be given to the ladies
of the Community, and the order
of the meeting was changed.
Betty McGaughey gave instruc-
tions on "how to make a motion."
Cake was served to Lorene
Armstrong, Betty McGaughey,
Mary Womble and Mary Ann
Johnson.
