department has encouraged in the va

states for only about a year and a
half. The work was started sooner in

the southern states, as these were
considered to have greater econom-
icaI need for it. Also the general ed
ucation board of New York city offer
ed to help out the work in the south
in order to remedy bad agricultural
conditions. and this board has ma
terially aided in inaugurating clubs
to interest boys and girls in growing
corn, tomatoes and cotton.
In the mean time an urgent demand
arose in the northern and western
states for similar cooperative work
for young people. The successful
club work in the south furnished an
impetus for nationwide work and
the youth of the north and west have
taken up the national club work with
much enthusiasm. In the cooperative
arrangement with the southern states,
each state had a leader in charge of
the club work whose expenses we're
paid, half by the department and half
by the local organizations interested.
The demands of the north and west
have been so urgent that eight states
are now waiting to pay half the ex-
penses of this club work, but the de-
partment of agriculture has not at
present the funds to furnish the other
half. However, the work is continu-
ally being pushed into new territory
as the funds become available.
The individuals and local organiza-
tons throughout the north and west
have been most enthusiastic regarding
the work of the boys and girls. Sena-
tors and representatives sometimes
aid the work by generous contribu-
tons. Last year five congressman
from Illinois alone each furnished sue
cessful boy growers of corn with a
trip to the capital. Other congress
men from the New England states.
New York and West Virginia. brought
club champions to the capital.

YOUNG FARMERS FROM NORTH AND

Champion Potato Corn and Tomato Growers Are Handsomely
Entertained at the National Capital Along With Prize Winners
From Southern States-Work Encouraged by Agricultural De-
partment in Various States of the Union

AS an example of the interest ia.
known society leader of Cleveland, o.,
may be cited. She has devoted from
three to four months of her time dur
ing the past year to organizing and
promoting girls canning clubs She
has paid visits to the 126 girls in her
county who have taken up the work,
and among the girls who will shortly
visit Washington are two champions
of that district who come at her ex-
pense. Her two daughters, aged four
teen and sixteen years, are among the
club members, and, although not COM
peting for a prize, they have done the
work Of raising tomatoes on one
tenth acre plot and canning the prod
ucts.
In districts where corn does not
grow readily, but where there are
plenty of young people eager to grow
something, it has been found that po-
tato clubs are more satisfactory than
corn clubs. An organization of boys
and girls was started last year in
Massachusetts to grow potatoes, and
there are now $4,000 young people en-
rolled in potato work. most of them
being boys, as the girls are encour-
aged rather to take up tomato raising
and canning. Some girls. however,
have shown interest in potato grow
ing and have done particularly we'll in
manufacturing homemade potato

POSTCARD SENT NEWLY WEEDS
Highly Decorated Remembrance is
Inscribed With Advice
From Sender.

DegveT.~A wooden postcard nearly
two feet long and more than half =
foot wild and highly decorated with
instructions to newly married couples
was handed to e. C. Bennett, clerk at
the Kaiserhoff hotel, by the letter car
rier when making his usual mail de-
livery.
Roy d. Lee of Pueblo, who were here
on their honeymoon. The couple had
departed, however, before the card ar
rived. Clerk Bennett tried to put it in
the mail box and it wouldn't go. Then
he hung it up over his desk That
caused SO many people to make use
less remarks that he showed it under
the counter.
Then some one told him he was In
terfering with the United States mails,
so he took it out again and handed 1t
to the telephone operator, who wrote
another address on it and forwarded
1t after the happy couple.
One motto said: May all the
troubles be little ones" Another said:
BE good to one another" Another
card asked the clerk. in the event he
could not deliver the postcard, to re-
turn to the couple addressed at Rose
lawn cemetery, Pueblo, Colo, as that
would undoubtedly be their stopping
place in the end.
The card had tfrirty-four stamps on
it and numerous pictures of hearts,
cupids and other designs which con-
veyed the impression that the parties
addressed were in a blissful state of
mind.
