4-H Youth Tells The
Value Of Pole Beans

lecting high income specially
crops. In our case, this consists
of tobacco, squash, and pole
beans grown for both the
spring and fall markets"
Pole beans came to Larry's
rural community, BuckSport,
about 3 years ago when his
uncle visited a pole bean pro-
ducing area in North Carolina.
Interest in this trip was Stim-
ulated by the organization uf
the Horny County Farmers
Market at LoriS.
Larry said, Our first years
planting of "a acre almost
proved to be our last. We
learned lot about the cause
of poor stands, the need for
proper fertilizer placement,
and adequate insect control.
But in spite of all our mistakes
we were able to market enough
beans to break even.
1--WE saw lot of possibilities
in this crop and with the help
OF Jack Pruitt, Horny county'S
assistant county agent, we have
been able to lick most of our
problems through soil Selcc-
ton, proper grading before 60

average net return per acre is
now well above our first years

and we're hoping you can

S, J. r.
1t is next to impossible for
me to even estimate how
much money you will need to
meet your expenses at school.
So much depends on the fl
nancial level at which you
are accustomed to living,
what you think your per-
sonal needs may be, whether
yours is a private or State
school and whether it's an
all-girl school or co-educa-
tional.
However, here is a sugges-
ton. for whatever it may be
worth to you: Start out with
$40 to $25 a week, depend
ing on Dads wallet. Keep an
accurate record of daily ex-
penditures. Total them up at
the end of the month and
figure out what it averages
per week.
If you find you can save a
little, either put it in the
bank for a nest egg to be
used for holiday travelling eX-
penses, extra clothing, etc.
or let your parents know you
can get by on less.

Robin and I thought 1t
would be fun to 60 there
when we could afford it
and bowl in the daytime.
It's not very crowded then
and some of our friends
are there so it's really
great!
My mother says l can
not go without a chaperOn.
She says that only girls
who are looking for pick
ups 60 bowling in pairs. l
don't see how anyone could
possibly get into trouble
bowling in the daytime un-
less they went looking for
it. Do you? PEGGY.
If your parents trust you
and your girl friend, I be-
lieve you are old enough to
go bowling in the daytime
without a chaperon. The
only possible reason I can
think of which might change
my opinion is the type OF
people who patronize this
particular place. If they are
rough and offbeat. then is
is not for you-w with or with
out a chaperon.

music" .
But after the Twirlers had
shown their styles of do ST.
doing" and performed the
Grand Square, classmates
were asking where they could
learn the same kind of fun.
The Twirlers are used to
converting people. One Is
year-old even converted his
parents to square dancing.
They thought it was like
dancing in westerns until
they tried it.
And Judy says: II have a
girl friend who has plugged
me for years about liking to
square dance. Then a caller
did a first-nighter at her
church "a first dance and
she said she wished she'd
started square dancing long
ago..
The square-dancing teens
are like one big happy fam
lily. And Cindy says tall girls
don't have to worry about
height because there are so
many boys.
But Bob Mullen, Cindy's
13-year-old brother, has an
other reason for liking square
dancing. 1t involves girls.
Girls who square dance
are more fun" Bob says.
"They laugh a lot and are
easier with boys"

The evidence is in the
growth of square-dancing
clubs, especially around Vir-

class in Northern Virginia.

tomorrow some 500 teen-agers

It's not that these teen

They do. But they like square
