The first Jersey calf club in the South to' be recognized by the Jersey Cattle Club Association of America was organiste.il during the past year by County Agent J. W. Hendricks, of Catawba county. This club is the first in the South to receive an appropriation from the Jersey Cattle Club and is one.of about six in -tin', whole of the-United to thus tie recognized. According Mr. J. A. Arey, dairly farming spe cialist, the requirements for the rei-og-nized calf club have been made so strict until few of the so-called clubs have, been able to meet them. The club in Catawba county was or gan'zed In the three year plan, which proposes to grow out the calves to ma turity and to show them lit some of tlie fairs each fall. This club has twenty members, which is the minimum allowed under the. new requirements. During tlie past year the members re ceived fjiTii.OO in cash from the Jersey Cattle Club. The boys and girls tak ing part in it showed their calves at the county fair at Hickory and three were shown in Rnle'igli nt the State Fair. According to Mr. Arey, this calf club work is doing tremendous good in ad vancing the dairly interest of Catawba county, and from the success which ' the hoys and girls are having there it is felt that the. Idea will spread over the ither dairy counties of North Car olina. Gaston nnd Mecklenburg coun ties are also doing club work' w!th dairly cattle but have not yet organized their clubs on the same plan us the atawha county club, Detour at Kannapolis in Bad Condi tion.
