ARMER PRIZE winners 70 GET SCHOLARSHIPS c
The Department Of Agriculture Urges
a School Course As a Reward
for Corn Club Boys.

Washington The department of az
rjcultWc recommends that in place of
trip 10 Washiugtou the young prize
winners OF the corn, canning and pouE
try and other agricultural clubs be
given a years course in practical
training at some agricultural coilcgc.
Ia case the young champions acade-
mic training would not enable him to
! enter the agricultural college OF his
state. a more elementary course in a
school where agriculture is taught or "a
course in an agricultural hi"h school
are recommended.
The department considers that such
courses have considerably more last
ing value for prize winners and for the
agriculture of their sections than fly
ing trips to the capital. The state
and local organizations which have
been paying for these trips have been
sincerely interested in developing a
true appreciation OF farming as a bust
ness among the boy and girl farmers
Some of these have already considered
this question and have decided on tho

This gave impetus to the idea in
Arkansas ana now the biggest annual
prize offered the corn club boys is a
scholarship, given by the Bankers As
soclalon. The sam" association gives
similar scholarship to the girl cham
plon OF the canning clubs.
While years course. with all ex-
pcnses paid, is the suggestion of the
department Tor the biggest prize for
state winners less extensive courses
might be offered to county winners. II
has been suggested that such counties
as care to give prizes, give one or
more short courses in the state agri-
cultural and mechanical colleges to The
fortunate county champions. These
courses are usually only two weeks
long ana are held IN winter or IN sum
