One of the most interesting exhibits
Of the past week in connection with
the Conference for Education in the
South was that made by the Virginia
poultry clubs Inaugurated by the
federal government just few months
ago when the department Of aericul-
tuFe sent Joseph William kingborne
to Virginia to interest country boys
and girls Of the Commonwealth In
poultry raising and teach them the
way 10 make It profitable the work
has grown rapidly. until now three
counties are organized and over zoo
children enlisted in the various poul-
try clubs.
The exhibit gave evidence Of the
fact that Mr. kingbone has fallen IN
line with the slogan of the Confer
ence for Education-~"Co~ope IN
country life" In practically every In
stance the poultry clubs have been
organized by pupils OF the county
schools, and it Is his purpose TO pur-
sue this policy. In the exhibit were
brooder made by the members Of the
poultry club Of Chester high school.
and n feed hopper manufactured by
the club connected with BurkeviiIe
high school, and both good examples Of
the ingenuity of the youthful builders,
well adapted 10 practical purposes
and inexpensive. Mr. klngborne is
not only arousing the enthusiasm Of
the country boys and girls in the sub
lect Of poultry raising. but teaching
them how TO make II profitable and
how 20 build their own appliances for
the business conduct Of the industry
