During the past year the members have shown an active interest in F.F.A. by having projects and exhibiting them in various county fairs, livestock shows and in the Section 5, F.F.A. show. The judging contests which they attended were 'Land judging' at Glasford, 'Poultry Judg- ing' at Wyoming, 'Livestock judging at Section 5. Fifteen 'green hands' were initiated this year and a 'Chapter Farmer' initiation has been planned for the Sophomore members. The hard working members sold sixty-five pounds of rat poison and a number of fire extinguishers as a money making scheme. Each year a 'Pest Con- test' is held, the Seniors and juniors versus the Sophomores and Freshmen. The Fresh-Soph team won and were treated to a chili supper. This year's chapter of enterprising young farm- ers has worked well and has tried to develop competent, aggressive, rural and agricultural leadership - the aim and purpose of Future Farmers of America.
