Little Miss McIan Is a member OF
Green county poultry club, whose
members have received Instruction
from Miss Mable Moore, home demon
stratlOn agent. Her club, with many
others, has exhibits at the East Ten
nessee Division Fair, consequently
those parents who were Interested to
have their children enter a profitable
work while they are young, brought
them TO Ihe fair and 10 see the results
accomplished by club members
County home demonstration agents
of the Upper East Tennessee counties
have during this year waged cam
palgn among the boys and girls clubs
OF their several counties, to encourage
the production and improve the quality
OF the farm poultry says Richard n.
Crane, poultry specialist with the Dl-
vision OF Agricultural Extension, Uni
verslty of Tennessee, They have Sc
cured thousands of members who have
made thousands OF dollars for them
selves Money made by these boys
and girls is nearly all clear because
OF the fact that their energies have
been directed into profitable play"
Mr. Crane states that the experience
OF little Miss McIaln is typical OF
many. They all show that the boys
and girls can make much money on
the farm, where they are protected by
the tender care of father and mother
and shielded from city temptations and
privations

farm or in the city, shows an inter-
eel in chickens or other fowl, assist
him In selecting the ones that he
wants, and give him q start by buying
Ave or six good females and a good
male" says Mr.. Crane.
Rabbits and Pigeons.
Rabbits and pigeons also can be
grown very probably on the farm or
In the city. ..Such work will give them
an opportunity to earn Sufficient money
with which to pay for their own edu-
cation, give them excellent employ
ment, and create in them an interest
In home that they would not otherwise
hays. Money spent In giving them a
start either In the growing of chick
