Wethink it is our dutyto serve the educational needs of all the farm people in our community, To do this we have programs for 3 different groups,- fly Future Farmers now in high school C23 Young Farmers recent- ly graduated who are just starting out on their own and C31 Adult Farmers. Our high schoolenrollment has increased from 16 to 26 farm boys during the past 3 years. Some of the 1955 achievements ofwhich we are proud are as follows: fly Our 1955 hog sale, althoheld at a time of badly declin- ing hog prices which caused many other sales in this vicinity to falldown badly,was one of the best we have. This was due entirely to the very high quality of breeding stock offered ever had. C21 ln the year 1955, our boys produced 14 litters of pigs which met the very high standards for Production Registry. Various breed associations have told us that they believed this was more than any other agriculture department in the mid- west. C39 Our program of farm shop work has been rated the largest and best in this section of Illinois. Our boys are truly interested in their work and they go after all of our many activities and studies with a spirit of co- operation and good will that makes it a pleasure to to work with them. Our Young Farmers classes started lastyear, now have 8 graduates enrolled. These boys bring back to school many ofthe problemsthat they meet in getting started. This part of our work is certain to grow as more boys graduate and start farming for themselves. Wethersfield Adult Evening School is well known as one of the largest and lest in this section. Average attendance last year was 109. Its affairs are largely administered by an advisory committee who bring to Wethersfield many nationally known guest speakers every winter.
