In announcing the NJVGA's

that all I,one Star S'H" boys

that such a program should be

where more than 384,000 farms

at approximate!} $1,082,200,000
The NJV'GA regional chair-
man also pointed out that such
activities among the young farm
ers of the state are becoming
increasingly important in view
of the evergrowing population
resulting in demands for mote
and be:ter food. He cited recent
estimates indicating the nation
has 5148,000,000 people to fe<*
now, as compared with 130,000.-
000 in 1940. He also pointed out
that the average American is
eating about 15 per cent more
food than in prewar years.
"In view of the above," Mr.
Hines said, "it is more and more
important that out young farm-
ers learn as much as possible
about improved production and
more efficient marketing meth-
ods. The program of the Na-
tional Junior Vegetable Growers
Association "provides them with
that opportunity.
All youths can enroll through
their local 4-H Club leaders or
