WORK PROFITABLE Members Realized Over $2,300 Aside From Prizes During Past Year, Leader Reports. Douglas county bo'R and girla 4-II club work increased, according to the annual report of J. Koland Parker, county leader, over luu per cent In llJliH over the enroll ment. Four hundred and eighty two boya and girls completed pro jects In sewing, cooking, canning, marketing, poultry, rabbits, sheep, Koats,' dairying, corn and potatoes. The value of all the projects to taled $'.841.04. This sum being the market value of the articles made, the poultry, livestock and crops produced. Cost of materials, feed, breeding ctoc k and labor was ?;;i0u.itH. leaving a net profit for ull projects a sum of 23N0.Uti, but does not include over $50U.OO won In premiums at the various fairs. The above figures were com piled from tlie cost account rec ords each club member must keep of each project taken. Thirty one communities and fifty-seven school districts took part and made possible the club program for the year. Each com munity or school district provided un nd nit to act as advisor or In structor for the boys and girls In their various club projects. The number taking advantage of the club woik has been increasing the past three years. On Decem ber :tl over 5(o boys and girls had already enrolled for club projects for the new year, ll2i, including many new schools and several communities not active before. Hoys und girls club work Is available to all boys and girls In the county between the ages of nine and eighteen. All that is re quired. Is that, they decide upon one, of the twenty-five projects or division.! of the projects offered and agree to complete the work un dertaken. They may enroll In groups of five or more taking the same project, having a local lead er or advisor to meet with them and discuss the best ways to carry on tlie woik to secure the best re sults. Working toeiher In this way the group Is known as a stand ard club each number benefits from the discussion and the ex perience of the other members but must carry his own work separ ate nnd distinct at his own home. An individual may enroll for a pro .1rt and carry tlie required work under the supervision of the coun ty club agent or the parents. Ttie county club agent, with an ofrice In the federal building visits the schools and talks over club wot k with the children and explains Vow the different projects are car ried and the requirements of each. Tlie boy a and girls are then asked to talk over the projects they think best suited to their conditions and secure the parents' consent. This done the enrollment blanks are filled out and sent to the county club agent. The club agent then sends the Instructions as supplied by the Pnlted States department of agriculture and the extension ser vice of the Oregon Agricultural college free to club members. The club member Is entitled to all that he or she makes or earns from the dub project but Is required to send to the county club agent properly filled In a cost account statement of the work done, the articles made and the profit or loss on the project as carried. This cost ac count report Is a most important feature of ctub work. It trains the toy or ulrl to keep to a rec ord and defiulately Know the cost and expenses, returns and standing of their business venture. Gives Good Training Club work trains In a business way and teaches the greatest and best practices for the farm and home. It brings the boys and girls together, fosters community spirit and teaches tlie advantages of co operation In producing results. A few of the outstanding pieces of club work In the county are in teresting and gives a clear under standing of the results to be ob tained from ttie work.
