G., Ore. Ph. II« Oregon 4-H club vegetable gardeners have a chance this year for 100 percent participation in the Sears Roebuck Foundation garden contest through a new state ruling that provides garden inspections for all qualified club members, according to Burton Hutton, state 4-H leader at Ore gon State college. Participation was previously limited to 50 percent of the state’s 80 garden club members who qualified through elimination to exhibit at county fairs. The revision also provides mer chandise awards to youthful green thumbers who receive blue or ivd ribbons on the basis of two gar- den inspections third-rated group will receive white ribbons This replaces a cash award sys tem formerly limited to county fair exhibitois. Hutton said the ruling applies only to the Sears contest and that standard garden ing exhibits at county fairs will oontinue. Younger 4-H members will be encouraged to participate through the new se t-up which lowers en- try nxiuirements for garden size from 6(i0 square feet to 200 feet The state leader believes garden tours or inspections will be an outstanding club event this year, enabling 1-H ers to see how dbu dub members conduct their products.
