James Clark, Newport 4-H'er,
owns a nice Hampshire gilt that it
registered. James won this gilt in
the corn production contest in 1953
sponsored by the Carteret County
Farm Bureau. He plans to breed
this gilt to a purebred Hampshire
boar soon. This type ol project is
very good in that James first grew
his feed supply which was two
acres of corn. Then he secured his
gilt.
Other 4-H'ers and adults, also,
could profit to follow this proced
ure. The lack of good quality feed
hurts the livestock industry more
than any other single factor.
Electricity has meant much to
each of us. It has given us a higher
standard of living and made a lot
of our daily jobs easier. Those
that take the Farm and Home
Electric Project in their *-H work
are trying to learn more about
electricity and how to use it. There
are 25 members enrolled in this
project here in the county. These
members will soon be receiving ad
ditional information and instruc
tions on carrying out their electri
city project.
This year we are celebrating the
Diamond Jubilee of Light. Thomas
A. Edison made the first light bulb
75 years ago. During this time elec
tricity has come into everyone's
life. It has been reported from the
local cooperative of the REA that
everyone in the county who wants
electricity has it. This is a record
of which everyone should be proud.
In 1919 there were only 3.6 per
cent of the farms in North Caro
lina with electric service. Today,
35 years later, 96 per cent of all

farms have electric Mrvke. There
are 288,000 farm* in North Caro
lina and 278,000 of them have elec
tricity. A 4-H girl won an electric
grill and waffle iron at the Farm
and Homr Electric Congress in
Charlotte this year by guessing the
closest to the figure of 279,000.
4-H members have had a very in
teresting program at their regular
club meetings this month. The pro
gram opened by the group singing
"O Little Town of Bethlehem." De
votional consisted of Scripture
reading by club member, Matthew
2: 1-12. Six members participated
in a skit called "Star Thoughts,"
followed by a Christmas prayer.
Minutes of the last meeting were
read by the club secretary. Busi
ness was discussed. A club mem
ber read a comical poem called
"The Day After Christmas" and
the group repeated the 4-H Pledge.
Boys studied Wildlife Conserva
tion and the girls, Window Cur
tains for Your Room. Boys were
given their 1955 record books. Sev
eral girls joined the 4-H Club this
month. Girls will get their record
books at a later date.
Girls will have a separate record
book for each project in 1955.
Keeping the record book should
be easier and more Interesting now.

Santa Claus Needs Help
In Getting Garden Gifts
Santa Claus U a fine fellow but
he's no mind reader.
The Small Fry catch on to thia
(act early in life. They write dis
patches to the North Pole or viait
St. Nick in hia local habitat.
Gardenera, however, are apt to
let their families and frienda get I
into a rut giftwiae. They should
acatter some aeeda of new and 1
uaeful ideaa, cultivate new fields, |
and reap something besides ties '
for the males or embroidered '
hankies for the ladies.
Adults are only children grown
up. It you keep an ear cocked,
you may hear the fond hopea of
your favorite garden friend.
Perhaps a little family run down
the garden path will help:
For Him
Did Dad seem a little pooped
after his last push session with
that tired old lawn mower? Maybe
the family could pool resources
and all hands chip in to buy that
power mower he'd like? and needs.
Or does he ram around the gar
_ ?
den in old, broken down togs that
make you wince whenever he stops
to talk to a passerby? How about
some sturdy garden trousers, or
a heavy twill shirt for early Spring
chill, or a lightweight, short
sleeved one for hot Summer days?
He'd be happy with a gift order
for bulbs, shrubs, trees, seeds or
perhaps those prize dahlias he 1
wanted but didn't buy because
Junior needed new shoes. Then
there's the year-round gift of a
subscription to a garden magazine
? there are several worth his
while.
Your garden shop has the open
sesame to his desires. Walk around
and you'll surely see something
you've heard him sigh about dur
ing the gardening season. You can
find something to fit him, and
your purse.
For Her
The Lady of the garden has
some needs and wants too. She
like* a wide, under arm basket in
which to put her flowers to carry
from the garden to a pail of water
then to her home. She's partial to
sharp cutting shears, a hand trowel
set of her own, gay garden togs,
a floppy sun hat ? and garden
gloves are a must for milady's I
hands.
Hosiery preferred, especially
when it's luxury sheer and Id
new fashion tones. Above, In an
angel decorated gift box, seam

She foes for ? set of those
flower holders or attractive con
tainers for arrangements, and U
particularly partial to exotic seed
or bulb collections for experi
ment. These you can make avail
able to her by leaving a gift de
posit with your garden shop.
For her, too, a quiet amble
through a garden supply store will
live you a lot of ideas, and per
haps crystallite some wish?s you've
leard her express.
Small Fry
The toddlers are the gardeners
if tomorrow. Encourage them. We
iuggest a family gift certificate
to each of the juniors able to per
?mbulate certifying that they have
? small patch of garden for their
i'ery own come Spring .
Just a 5 by 5, 10 by 10-foot
