County Agent Victory Program For 1942 Plans for the county agent’s of fice in O’Neill are being revised for 1942, wherever necessary to fit the new statewide educational program. A five point program was adopted at the recent meet ing of the Agricultural Extention Sefrvice in Lincoln. Plans for the coming year are intended to help farm people in Holt County meet the impact of the war during 1942. Production of the greatest quantity of high quality food in the nation’s his tory is the main job which farm people face. Meeting this pro duction with a shortage of farm labor and less machinery and labor saving devices is going to require the best management and methods of production to be employed. An all-out “Nebraska Victory Home and Garden Program” is one point to be stressed. All the Ex perimental data at the Nebraska Experiment Station will be brought to farm and town people alike, and new varieties of vege tables will be encouraged. In making plans for more and bet ter gardens, county agent Lyndle Stout will work closely with the county United States Department of Agriculture War Board and other organizations, to reach the greatest number of people. The state-wide Pasture-Forage Livestock program will be revised to meet the need of the situation. An effort will be made to assist any farmer before planting so that the county may be sure of meeting its production goals. An extension campaign for immediate repair of machinery to relieve re pair shortage is now being carried on. Closely tied in with the raising of gardens will be the aim of bet ter nutrition for the family in the county. Information on healthful eating habits will be made avail able through women’s project clubs, 4-H home economics clubs, demonstration circulars and other means. The 4-H program will seek a greater enrollment than ever as recently announced. Victory pin and seal awards will encourage clubs and members to enroll new members. More emphasis will be placed on production of more food and better citizenship as the rural boys and girls take up their part in the Food for Victory Cam paign. The educational part of the Food for Victory campaign is going to require the full time of every farmer as well as every cooperat ing organization in order that the United States may not be short of food in this war.
