Rotary Awards to
FFA, 4-H Winners
In Hockley County
Based on essay contest and
project conclusion, the Levelland
Rotary club will this week award
a registered Jersey heifer and
a registered Duroc Jersey gilt to
outstanding 4-H club and Future
Farmers of America in the coun-
ty-
The prizes have already been
selected. County Agent D. W.
Sherrill said Wednesday. The re-
gistered heifer will come from
the Roy Conatzer herds, and the
gilt has been chosen from animals
owned by C. E. Padgett.
Purpose of the contest and
Rotary awards is to encourage
youthful stockmen in the area
to introduce higher quality live-
stock throughout Hockley coun-
ty.
An essay based on the past
year’s work for 4-H club and
FFA boys will tabulate 40 per
cent in awarding of the regis-
tered heifer and gilt. Ability of
•he bov to carry his project to a
successful conclusion will score
60 per cent.
This year the 4-H club win-
ner will receive the Jersey heifer,
and the FFA winner will take the
registered gilt. Reversal of the
awards will be seen next year,
Sherrill said.
Annual report to Rotarians is
required of the award winners
on progress of the projects, and
the FFA-4-H boys will be ex-
pected to show their apimals at
least once q year.
The prize takers will also be
required to turn back to the Ro-
tary sponsors the first heifer
calf produced by the prize heifer
and the choice gilt pig from the
first litter of- the gilt.
