THE 4-H CLUBS
It would be difficult to name any single influence which
is doing more for the development of the young men and
young women of America into useful citizenship than the
4-H club movement. This year it is estimated that there
will be more than ten thousand 4-H clubs organized in
the United States. As the minimum number of members
of a 4-H club is five, that means 50,000 boys and girls en
gaged in intensive, competitive effort for self-improvment
in the fields which the four “H’s” stand for—Head, Heart,
Hand and Health.
At present there are eight different classes of compe
tition around which the 4-H clubs are form ed; corn,
wheat, calves, pigs, sheep, for the boys and canning, cook
ing and sewing for the girls, although there have been
and still are many girl members of the grain and live
stock clubs. If they did nothing more than train these
young folk in the most modern methods the clubs would
be doing a great and valuable service, but they go farther
than that. They teach the lements of team work, which
in the future, even more than in the past, will be the key
to successful farming, and they inculcate the principles
of good sportsmanship in teaching the unsuccessful com
petitors to be good losers. More important than those,
even, is the stress laid upon exact cost-accounting. The
boy who has learned by his own 4-H club records just
what it cost to grow a quarter-acre of corn or to raise a
calf, is going to be a better business man when he runs
his own farm than most farmers are today. And farming
is on its way to be more of a business and less of a gamble
than it has been.
