The sixty-three boys enrolled in this national organization consist of four degrees: Greenhands, Future Farmers, State Farmers, and American Farmers. Each of these de- grees is based on achievement. The activities of the chapter have been varied and many. Our chapter was host to an officers' training school in September. The out-of-town activities consisted of a trip to the American Royal, to Barrier field day at Eureka, and many other short trips. The F. F.
