4-H Boys Busy With Gardens COURT HOUSE—Willard G. Patton, district 4-H Club agent, made tours of inspection with local club leaders in Cape May, Rio Grande, Erma, Green Creek, South Seaville, Swainton, Sea Isle City and Woodbine recently and found a total of 66 gardens, most of which were well cared for by club members. The gardens varied in size from 500 square feet to two acres and in general were laid out for a varied supply of vegetables to use fresh, can and store. The most outstanding for size, succession cropping and cultivation was that of the Ouram brothers in Erma.. The best small garden was that of Nelson Garretson, of the same club. The largest pig project was that of David McPherson, of Erma, with ten registered durocs, including two brood sows and a recently acquired boar. The best gardens in the Sears contest thus far were those of Edward Hand, of Rio Grande, and Russell Weatherby, of Dias Creek, and 'the Robinson sisters, of South Seaville. At least 60 pigs were inspected, most of which had been vaccinated against hog cholera, and many members were raising supple-

seen at Douglass Wilson’s in Cape May. The Swain brothers in Cape May have a fine small poultry and rabbit project. The largst poultry project was that of the Ouram brothers in Erma. A very high percentage of all 4-H boys visited are working on farms in addition- to carrying on H projects’.
