NEGRO CLUB WORK BRINGS
GRATIFYING RESULTS.

The county and homo Lcmonstra
ton work i'll the South among Ne
grocs is done in almost all instances
by members of their own race who
have been trained by the white cH
tension workers. Tho same types OF
club work arc done by the Negroes
AZ are done by the white club mem
bors. The results have been crafty
ing in every locality according to
tho United States department OF
Agriculture and the State agricul-
tural colleges which cooperate in the
work.
A Negro agent in Pulaski County,
Arkansas tells OF some of the results
of her work as follows:
"Mr Jim White was induced,
through tho influence of the agent,
to remodel his homo, adding n new
screen porch, which includes the well.
This makes il very convenient for
the housewife. The house has been
painted recently. A sanitary clubhouse
has also been built and tho garden
enlarged and well fenced. This was
done last year
Mrs. White, his wife, became very
deeply Interested in poultry and from
tho sale OF chickens and eggs sue
realized over S125. She used the
money for furnishing living room
in her homo. The walls were paper
cd, three nice rugs had been put on
tho floor and Il set of mission furni
turo was very neatly arranged in one
room.
When 1 visited this room in 1917 I
found in il none OF tho things men
toned above and the contrast was
quite striking. These improvements
were Il direct outgrowth of the home
demonstration work through the poul
try club, according to Mrs. White.
MRS. M. Robbins, living near Mt
Zion Church has sold all Of her scrub
poultry and has a fine lot Of White
Wyandottes instead. She won tho
first prizo at the county fair last
year and is very hopeful of her flu
turc success with that breed of chick
ems.
Tho club girls ut st. Johns com
munity have commenced their annual
'cloan up campaign, to the end that
they have white-washed several hon.
cs and surrounding outhouses on
their home grounds. The president of
tho club Is very active Tho garden
club members all purchased thor
seed together and each member plant
cd seed on tho same date"
