Better practices in agriculture and home making are dem- onstrated by these juniors. Surveys in a dozen different states show that some of these improved methods are adopted into the regular practice of the farm and home, on at least two out of every five farms. Our enrollment last year showed a marked increase in the livestock projects. The achievements were also outstanding. The Grand Champion pig at the Junior Live- stock Show in 1926 was owned and raised by Henry Roningen of Pelican Rapids. Money that he earned through club work, together with a hundred dollar scholarship from the Minneapolis Journal, has made it possible for Henry to attend the College of Agriculture, at St. Paul. Wayne Naugle of Ada, had the reserve champion baby steer at tl1e Junior Livestock Show. He raised and fed an Angus steer. In John Letnes we have a dairyman of no mean ability. His Ayrshire calf took first in its class at the State Fair in 1925. He too, won a o11e hundred dollar scholarship awarded by the Jlinneapolis Journal. He is now attending the Northwest School of Agriculture, at Crookston. A national championship with a bread demonstration was w-on by Lorna and Ruth Griffin of Kittson county. Because they were state champions in the bread dem- onstration at the State Fair, they were awarded a trip in the National Boys' and Girls, Club Congress held in connection with the International Livestock Show at Chicago. Here they demonstrated in competition with teams from several other states, winning first place. lvfany educational trips are furnished club members each year. Several hundred from this district received trips to the State Fair, Junior Livestock Show, Short Courses at St. Paul, and the Northwest School at Crookston. Club tours, camps, picnics, and county fairs, are giving many an opportunity to get information as well as enjoyment. The VVinter Show at Crookston is doing much to assist the club folks in their work. OYS' and Girls' club work has become an important part of the extension -wp program in the Red River Valley. In 1926, nearly 41,000 were enrolled in Page Sixty-seven
