Clark, District Conservationist This seems to me to be the appropriate time to tell you something of the opportunities in Agriculture. Never in the history of the Soil Conservation Service have these opportunities been as great as they are right now. Americans are rediscovering agriculture. After years of being taken for granted, agriculture now makes the news headlines - whether the topic be food prices, bad weather, or a technological advance in the grim race between the stork and the plow. We have an opportunity to constructively exploit this heighten interest. Despite all the recent headlines, too many people still equate agriculture with tilling fields or harvesting crops. Unreal images, if unchanged, could diminish tomorrow's agriculture. Agricultural progress is greatly dependent upon the achievements of scientists, one of our Nation's most important resources. We are short of this brain ? power today, and each year competition grows for new graduates. Competition is especially fierce in agricultural which draws on all the sciences. Indeed, in recent years there have been about twice as many jobs as graduates. Urbanization aggravates the problem. With each passing year there are more youngsters who have never visited a farm, much less grown up on one. If we are to continue our progress in agriculture, a good many of tomorrow's scientists and engineers will have to come from the urban and suburban communities where some 75 percent of our people live. Agriculture must sustain an agressive recruiting campaign to meet its manpower needs in quantity. Fortunately, the colleges of agriculture are reporting sharp Service News James M. Allen, 18, son of Mr. and Mrs. Eddie Allen of Rt. 1, Raeford, enlisted in the U.S. Air Force delayed enlistment program. Allen will report Dec. 5 for basic training at Lackland AFB in Texas. During his six years of service, he will serve in the electronics aptitude area. He is a 1975 graduate of Hoke High School. Ronald Scott, son of Mr and Mrs. Fulton Scott, Rt. 1, Aberdeen, was promoted to Army specialist four while serving as an armor crewman with the 3rd Armored Division in Friedberg, Germany. increases in enrollment. But ettorts must get underway to recruit agriculture its share of gifted students. Ideally, these efforts should be directed at high school students whose career choices are still open. Our readers can play important roles in their home communities. How9 By seeking out bright students who like to probe for deeper meanings, who ponder causes and consequences, and then challenging them to a lifetime of service in a vital career aimed at producing more food for a hungry world. Teachers, for example, are in an excellent position to encourage students who show promise. Scientists everywhere can participate in their local high school's Career Day, or prepare informational materials to help guidances counselors give students a more factual picture of the many science careers open in agriculture, whether by speaking before civic groups, by button-holing the local newspaper editor, or most important of all - by encouraging the apt young people we meet in our daily lives to prepare for satisfying careers in research. .. and one to grow on!
