AGRICULTURE STUDY CLUBS 70

Ames. FEB. 17.-Agriculture study
clubs for young men On the farm
eighteen to thirty years of age and
home making clubs for the young
women on the farm-in the words OF
y. w. Kennedy, director Of Ames ex-
tension. the most far reaching move
ment ever undertaken In this state OF
any other state toward keeping the
young men on the farin"-are to. be
inaugurated Immediately by capable
extension worker who Joins the extern
sion division specially for this purpose.
The club idea is- one Of DIR. Kennedy's.
The director says the only solution OF
the problem to keep the farm boy on
the farm is to get to%htm while he IL
there and show him. before 1t IS too
late. what he Is leaving when he leaves
the land. Get them interested and
there will be fewer OF. them forsaking
the farm is the directors theory.
haussr 10 Organize Clubs.
Organizing of the clubs will start at
once, under the direction Of M. A.
Hauser, of Marshall county. who joins
the extension department.. It is planned
for the young men to meet once or
twice q month, III the, country school
house or rural church, and discuss crop,
soil. livestock, orchard improvement
and kindred subjects. The state col
lege would send, every SO often. crop
expert who would take the club mem
bers on n tour Of inspection to the
neighbours farm where he would show
them the reasons-Why the neighbor Is
making more money OF the same kind
of land than they are. The clubs will
be furnished crop, livestock and all

Farm Life More Attractive.
II the farm home is made q more at
tractive and comfortable place in which
to live, Director Kennedy says the
farm boy would be farm husband in
stead Of running of to the electric
lighted, hot and cold water. thoroughly
modern" city. The idea Of the young
women's clubs Is to make country
home life more interestine These
clubs would study domestic science.
home sanitation, planning, decorating
and furnishing homes and identifying
the country home grounds by landscape
gardening. Occasionally tho mems and
women's clubs would meet Jointly to
hear an Ames gardener tell how to
make an inviting house lot and an
other instructor tell how to build a
better house.
I'm other words, we want to make
the Iowa farm homes the most attrac-
tive places in America. In England and
Scotland the most beautiful homes.
grounds and flower gardens are found
on the farms and not in the cities.
What England and Scotland can have
Iowa can have.'' says Professor Ken
