County Men At

Agricultural Convention

Sever*] Cape May County attended the State Agricultural Convention and Farm Week Trenton last week. Meyer SemofT and Michael McPherson, of Woodbine and Cold r ig, respectively, represented Cape May County Board of

Agriculture.

Edwin C. Miller, of Cape May,

was the County Pomona Grange delegate. E. H. Phillips, of Cold Spring, who was elected to the State Board of Agriculture for • four year term last year, spent

three days at the convention. Mr. McPherson was appointed to the nominating committee. Henry Brown, of Burleigh, took

part in a round-table discussion on "The Roadside Stand as an

Outlet for Honey” as part

horticultural and beekeepers’ meetings held in conjunction with

Farm Week.

Brown several years ago developed a stingless bee at ''

Burleigh apiary.

County PTA In Big Meeting

The glamour girl of 1942 will be a farmerette in denim overalls. This prediction was made at a farm labor forum called by the State Grange and New Jersey Farm Bureau Wednesday as part

of Agricultural Week.

David H. Agans, of Three Bridges, master of the Grange, presided at the meeting which was attended by representatives from more than 20 groups including the state departments ol health, labor, institutions and agencies and agriculture, and the migrant labor committee of the

Consumers' League.

The farmers' biggest and most serious problem for 1942 is going to be that of getting labor, said Major H. J. Lepper, of Trenton, representing the U. S. Employment Service. Competition \ between industry and agriculture for the limited available labor supply is expected to become more intense as the war program

develops.

Among recommendations for a partial solution of the farm labor situation was included the employment of girls and young women for work on farms, modification of labor laws permitting boys and girls to do tasks that are now prohibited and giving credit on school work for time

spent in the fields.

W. W. Oley, of Trenton, chief of the Bureau of Markets, told of the service of the farmerettes in the last war and expressed the belief that women could be easily trained for many jobs on farms. He stated, however, that there are many tasks on farms that women should not b« asked to

perform.

A survey of labor requirements is being prepared by D. 0. Boster, of Trenton, in charge of the U. S. Department of Agriculture Crop Reporting Service. Field men will be placed in New Jersey early in February to canvass the farms for the labor requirements of the rural areas.

The mid-winter meeting of the County Council of Parent-Teach-ers Associations was held Thursday in the First Presbyterian Church, Ocean City. There was an attendance of 65 members. Mrs. M. Foulk, of Woodbury, second vice president of the State Congress of Parents and Teachers and director of the Southern Counties, made an address in which sbe stated: "Parent-Teacher policy is the welfare of our children and youth and our organization is the medium through which our people may come together and discuss what is needed in our commun-

ity.”

Mrs. E. M. Menerth, of Westfield, state goal chairman, explained the required goal stand-

ard of the organization.

Other speakers included Lome

part of the | C. Rickert, Ocean City recreation * ’ ’ center director; George E.

Brown, superintendent of Ocean City schools, and Daniel J. Ricker, county school superintendent, who invited the units to attend the National Education Association convention in Atlantic City three days starting February 12. Both sessions were presided over by Mrs. John B. Kaighn, of Cold Spring, county council chairman, who conducted the business

meeting.

The musical portion of the program was a set of vocal duets by Mrs. Janet Carraine and Mrs. Mildred N. Hogan, accompanied

by Mrs. Ralph Jarvis.

Luncheon was served by the

Ocean City units.

The next County Council meeting will be held on April 9 at 2:15 p.m. in West Cape May bor-

ough hall.
