Jim Frink Combines
High School Classes
An example of how the vo-
cational agriculture program
in high school coupled with
vocational agriculture leads a
boy into established farming,
is the story of Jim Frink of
the Crater high school voca
tional agriculture chapter.
Jim, who will be a senior
this fall, has practically ful
filled his goal of becoming
established in farming. He
now farms 27 acres of wheat,
20 acres of barley, 45 acres of
oats and vetch hay, 32 acres
of oats and 230 acres of
Talent alfalfa. He plans to
buy 15 feeder steers this fall
to utilize part of his grain and
hay. Those crops not fed on
the home farm to Jim's live
stock will be sold and the re
turns used to further his agri
cultural investment.
Livestock
Current livestock In Jim's
FFA supervised farming pro
gram include three Guernsey
cows, three heifers, three
registered Berkshire sows, one
registered Berkshire boar
and four fat hogs. Jim plans
to exhibit classes from his
livestock and crops at the
Jackson County FFA and 4-H
fair.
The Crater chapter member
has demonstrated a strong in
terest and aptitude in farm
mechanics, his Instructor
pointed out. Work he has
done In the Crater vo-ag shop
includes construction of a
large tilt bed, dual wheel im
plement trailer and complete
overhaul of a farm tractor.
Jim, along with chapter:
president Don Denning, ac
cumulated more points in the
Crater FFA activity contest
than any other member."
Griggs said. "The award to
the two boys for winning the
Crater FFA activity contest
will be a trip to the National
FFA convention in Kansas
City in October."
Jim holds the state farmer
degree and is chapter treas
urer. He is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Morris Frink, Cen
tral Point.

FFA Organization Has Developed Fast
What is the Future Farmers
of America?
It is the national organiza
tion of boys studying vocation
al agriculture in public secon
dary schools under the pro
visions of the National Voca
tional Education Acts.
It was launched at Kansas
City, Mo., in November, 1928.
The organization has con
tinued to develop rapidly. On
June 30, 1956, the active mem
bership totaled 382,342 in
8,990 chapters of 49 states,
and Puerto Rico.
Primary aim of the FFA is
the development of agricul
tural leadership, cooperation,
citizenship and patriotism.
Other purposes include:
strengthening the confidence
of farm boys and young men
in themselves and their work,
more intelligent choice of
farming occupations, creating
and nurturing a love of coun
try life, improving the rural
home and its surroundings,
encouraging cooperative ef
fort, encouraging thrift, im
proving scholarship, provid
ing organized recreational ac
tivities for rural people, and
supplementing by means of
boy-initiated and boy-directed
activities, the systematic in
struction offered to prospec
tive young farmers regularly
enrolled in day-school voca
tional agriculture courses.

4H Clubs Help Of Boys and Girls
What is the Oregon 4-H
program?
It's the youth program of
the Oregon State college ex
tension service in cooperation
with the U.S. Department of
Agriculture and the various
counties and cities in Oregon.
It cooperates with the
schools, churches and other
youth organizations in the
development of boys and
girls. It helps boys and girls
become responsible citizens
who will live useful, enjoy
able lives.
Included in the things it
teaches both boys and girls
are: desirable skills, attitudes,
and ideals for better living;
responsibility for self, family
and community; cooperation -how
to work with others;
leadership - how to help oth
ers; courtesy - to get along
with others; health habits for
healthful living; good groom
ing for better looks; confi
dence in themselves; pride in
a good job well done; to fin
ish what they begin; appreci
ation of nature, beauty, music
and life itself; conservation
and proper use of natural re
sources; ambition and desire
for better things and better
living.
This program also helps
parents guide the develop
ment of their sons and daugh
ters. It offers opportunity for
parents and others interested
in the welfare of boys and
girls to become 4-H club lead
ers. It's for all boys and girls
between the ages of 0 and 21.
To be a 4-H club member in
Oregon, a boy or girl must
have passed his ninth birth
day and not have passed his
21st birthday on Jan. of the
current club year.

counselor,
Martha Y. - My husband is
spending too much time with
my friend.
Herbert Y. - She deserves
all the sympathy and help I
can give her.
'
Martha Y. - My husband
and I have been married eight
years and have three young
sters. We have had a happy
marriage until recently.
Our problem involves an
old friend of mine, whose hus
band has been hospitalized for
several months as the result
of an accident. He may be
severely crippled for life. We
have tried to help this woman
in her troubles, but I feel that
my husband is beginning to
do a little too much and
Sylvia is being just too, too
nice to him.
Things have gotten so bad
that Herb is spending more
time over at Sylvia's house
than at home. Am I wrong in
objecting?
Herbari Y. - I'm really
angry that Martha should
take such a jealous, petty atti
tude. Her friend has been
through a tragedy and de
serves all the help and sym
pathy she can get.
I wonder what Martha
"Is ir responsible asenctts and
would do if the same thing
happened to me. I hope some
body's husband would be kind
enough to help her out. I was
able to ciirect Sylvia to a good
lawyer and banker. She has
also become so nervous she is
afraid to be alone evenings
so I make it a practice to stop
in for a while nearly every
night.
Martha becomes furious
every time Sylvia calls me
for some advice.
Th Council: We agree that
Sylvia needs plenty of sym
pathy and help from her
neighbors. How far this kind
of help should go depends
upon many faetors.
Most women are extremely
dependent upon the strong
arm of a man to the point
where they may lose their
balance if it is suddenly taken
away. Certainly, the man who
offers assistance at that critic
al moment is an invaluable
friend.
However, no woman has
the right to take over anoth
er's husband to the point
where he is sorely missed by
his own wife. Wives have
different degrees of tolerance
of such a situation. We think
it is safe to assume that the
woman who rarely displays
jealousy is a fair judge of the
matter of where lines should
be drawn.
Herbert should recognize
that his oversolicitude may be
doing the woman in the case
little good at this time. The
first shock is over. Sylvia is
now at the point where she
must learn to make her peace
with her misfortune. She must
discipline herself not to be
afraid when she is alone, and
she can't and won't do that
as long as she knows her
nervousness will bring imme
diate help.
It is evident that Martha is
now the woman who is suffer
ing from the lack of male
companionship and support.
She can't send her husband
out on lend - lease forever.
Since Sylvia lacks the
strength and judgment to re
lieve Herbert of his helf-im-posed
responsibilities, he must
do something himself about
loosening her grip.

Crater high school FFA I
chapter in Central Point plans
to hold evening disease con
trol demonstrations again this
year at the Jackson County
4-H and FFA fair, according
to Ed Griggs, chapter adviser
and vo-ag instructor.
Chapter members who will
participate this year are Alan
Bray, Willie Debrick, Gilbert
Harrison and Bob Ryan,
Griggs said.
A stage will be erected by
chapter members in front of
the FFA barn. Spotlights and
sound equipment will be in
stalled for the programs.
Demonstrations will be held
for at least three nights. Each
demonstration will be preced
ed and followed by music
from the Crater FFA Rogue
Ramblers. This group has
placed high in the state FFA
talent contest for the last two
years.
demonstrations this year
will consist of properly and
safely throwing an animal
with halfhltches around her
body. This method of throw
ing a large animal Is based
on the pressure by the rope
on nerves along the animal'
i back causing a relaxation of
muscles. Actually the animal
lies down instead of being
uirown, onggs explained,
demonstrated on the cow after
Is thrown. These include
subcutaneous or under the
skin shots with a veterinary
syringe, Intermuscular, intra
peritoneal and intravelnous
shots. An FFA member will
describe the demonstration
over a microphone.
Correct methods of clean
ing and storing veterinary
syringes will be discussed,
also. The Crater chapter with
other Jackson county chap
ters, will exhibit livestock,
poultry, crops and projects
constructed during the school
year in school farm shops.
Other Areas-
The Illinois Valley and
Grants Pass chapters join the
three Jackson county chapters
in competing in the livestock
and dairy judging contests.
The Future Farmers of
Jackson county extend an in
vitation to everyone to view
their exhibits, programs and
demonstrations, Griggs said.
"Included in the aims and pur
poses of the Future Farmers
of America is development ot
leadership, character, skills
and agriculture science. Each
Future Farmer is enrolled in
a high school vocational agri
culture class. The members
follow approved farm prae-
I tlces learned In the classroom
