son lor rabies is approaching and
the District revenue law, which
levies a tax on dogs, also provides
lor muzzling.
Dogs held in leash by responsi
ble persons, however, are exempt
Irom the order.
IS NEW PEAK
Leaders See Wider Gain
for Betterment in
Rural Life.
By tbs Associates Press.
Upward of a million new project* to
improve rural life are beginning this
Spring.
Thi* is the way Agriculture De
partment officials look upon the work
of 1,200,000 farm boys and girls who
belong to the 4-H Clubs.
The figure represents a new peak
for enrollment in 4-H Club work,
which has been carried on by the de
partment's extension division in co
operation with States and counties
sinoe 1914. There are clubs now in
every State and territory of the United
States.
Final report^ on last year’s partici
pation have not yet been received,
but there were 469,129 boys and 654,
558 girls enrolled in 45 States. This
was an lncrase of 125,943 over 1935.
Trains for Usefulness.
The club work is aimed at enrich
ing farm life and training farm boys
and girls for greater usefulness.
To Dr. C. B. Smith, assistant ex
tension director, it 1s “the most sig
nificant movement among rural peo
ple today.”
“It is building rural leadership of
the highest character," he said.
Smith said 4-H work—training for
head, hands, heart and health—was
not altogether to promote better farm
ing.
“We know,” he said, “that a third
to a half of the boys and girls who
are born on the farm are likely to
find work in our cities and towns,
there to become merchants, clerks,
teachers, bankers, lawyers, doctors,
preachers, foremen In shops and la
borers in many fields. How impor
tant it is that those who come to the
cities shall be clean, wholesome, edu
cated, right-thinking youth—men and
women who have learned the virtues
of work and of thrift.”
Extra Profit a Side Issue.
Smith said the 4-H movement un
doubtedly had added millions of dol
lars to the farm income but that his
interest in the movement was more
in what it had done to improve farm
life and the character of farm youth.
"To the Nation 4-H Club work
means more than a million rural
youths annually constructively em
ployed in putting co demonstrations
of the better way in farming and
home-making throughout the Nation,
the better way in family and com
munity life, the better co-operative
and social way," he said.
