Faculty Adviser The Qwego chapter of Future Farmers is a branch of the national organization known as the Future Farmers of America. This organization has five main purposes: 'l. To promote vocational agriculture in the high schools of America. Q. To create more interest in agricultural occupations. 3. To promote thrift. 4. To promote scholarship. 5. To develop local leadership. ln the eight years since its organization the Qwego chapter has constantly striven to develop each of these purposes. During the year the association conducts tours to the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University. l-lere the members listen to lectures on up-to-date agricultural methods, take part in iudging contests, and attend a meeting of the State Future Farmers Association. Members of the club are required to have investments in agricultural enterprises, such as poultry or other live stoclc, and to carry on these individual investments suc- cessfully through their own efforts. High standards of classroom worlc are required of Future Farmers who desire advancement in the organization. Future Farmers are allowed to assume responsibility as often as possible, in order that they may be able to carry the burdens of leadership. ln these many ways, the Future Farmers feel that they are carrying out the ideals set up by the national association.
