PIGS REQUIRE SPECIAL FEEDS RALEIGH, March 3 ? What's gocd lor the pig is not necessarily good for the sow, says Dr. William Moore, veterinarian w.th the State Agriculture Department. He reports that a recent test ra tion based on ground corn and in cluding only live per cent green alfalfa hay was fine for growing and fattening pigs, but sows re ceiving this ration failed to pro duce thrifty litters. More than half of the pigs from these sows died before weaning. When the alfalfa hay was boosted to 15 per cent, however, t h e sows farrowed iieailio iificV's' a I ch^t??rr th still inadequate and some of the sows collapsed after nursing their newborn pigs for a few weeks. Dr. Moore says that the com plete answer, of course, is sound, well-balanced rations for the sow, both before and after farrowing.

Have Many Opportunities Many opportunities are given to 4-H'ers. They are able to take part in contests and local work which will help them to grow year by year. Some of the 4-H dates every member or prospective member w^ll want to remember are: March 1-9, National club week; May 25, 4-H Church Sunday; July 25-31, State Wildlife conference; Septem ber, (first week) older youth con ference; November (first week) National 4-H Achievement week; December (first week) National Club Congress. Every worth-while thing will require effort on the part of the individuals participating. Parents have a very definite part in the program, to encourage the efforts rtnade by the young people. Every club member is required to con duct a project in farming or home making. Usually there is a slight expense to any worth-while pro ject. Are the parents helping their children to earn this small amount of money required to use on their projects? New Camp It Objective Let us look together at a project that is facing every 4-H club mem ber in Jackson county. Their 4-H club camp at Swannanoa was no longer available during the war, it was used instead for military pur poses. They are now endeavoring to build another camp near Waynesville for the Western part of North Carolina, to send the 4-H youth of the counties for a wider vision of the 4-H program and for the further training of youth nr-the QUICK RELIEF FROM Symptom of Distrtss Arising from STOMACH ULCERS DUX TO EXCESS ACID Fr?

Each county has been asked to raise seven hundred ($700) dollars for a county cabin. There are approximately four hun dred active 4-H club members in Jackson county. Is this problem to be left up entirely to the youth of the county, or will the parents guide and direct them^so that they will be able to earn the money necessary to build the Jackson county cabin at the new camp site'.' The Dillsboro 4-H club introduced a plan in which every active mer - ber could have a part in raising this money. Every 4-H club in the county has voted to adopt the plan suggested by the Dillsboro club. The motion proposed that each 4-H club member be responsible for Lraising .one tiallaj to .gn, towXcd the. financing of the cabin; that the remainder of the money be raised through each 4-H club as a group. Parents and friends have a lot to do toward influencing young peo ple. If your child or neighbor's child is a 4-H club member, why not give him or her an opportunity I to do several errands and allow them to earn this money? In the days ahead the youth of the nation will be able to assume new respon sibilities, undertake bigger tasks and to do more with less. The chal lenge has been thrown out for the adults to grasp. Youth will need varied experiences in order to cope with new situations and 4-H club work at its best will do much to ward providing these new experi ences. Local leaders and parents do much to promote the work of the 4-H program. Your efforts are rec ognized nation-wide; your cooper ation and support are necessary if the nation-wide program is car ried out to its fullest advantage.

Nation-Wide Organization The 4-H club is a nation-wide organization conducted by the U, S. department of Agriculture in co-' operation with the N. C. State col lege of Agriculture and your coun ty. There are 1,700,000 4-H club members in the United States who will celebrate National 4-H club! week. Four hundred of these mem bers are from Jackson county, j coming from eleven clubs in the county: Dillsboro, Beta, Cullowhee, Cashiers, Cope Creek, Glenville, [Johns Creek, Qualla, Savannah, | Tuckaseegee and Webster. The boys I and girls learn by cooperating, and in doing so, create a desire for comradeship with other people. The expression "4-H" used in connection with these clubs typifies the training of Head, Heart, Hands and?Health, which the dub ,prp gram provides. The national 4-H club emblem is a four-leaf clover with a letter H on each leaf. The 4-H pledge is: "I pledge? My head to ^fcearer thinking; My heart to greater loyalty; My hands to larger service; My health to bet ter living, for my club, my com munity, and my xountry." The national 4-H club motto is "To Make the Best Better." (For additional information about 4-H club work, see your county extension agents.) FRESHNESS ?
