At. these fairs each .I-H member displays llis project, to show to the other l members and the public wlmt the individual members accomplished during the year. To give the read- er a clearer idea of what goes on at one of these fairs, here is a brief outline of one leld at South- sire last August. It was given by the Southside and Mill Creek 4-H clubs, under the direction of Mr. Lee Huston, Mrs. Chase and Mrs. William KempLon; in the evening of Aug- ust 23, 1945, at the Southsiue Community Hall. In the afternoon tile members brought projects to the hall. But that was just the beginning, for then began the tasks of cleaning, decorating, ar- ranging and any number of little jobs that had to be done. At the end of a long hard afternoon the U, S.

Although Shell Premium costs more to make, it costs you ,m morc than other premium gaoliacl Many a promislng calf, lost be- cause of infectious scours, probably could have been saved by the simple expedient of giving the patient a transfusion of blood from a mature cow in the same herd. This treatment can be followed by amazingly prompt and helpful results under conditions where more difficult, cunbersome, and costly treatments have met only with failure or mediocre relief. According to Dr. W. A. Higglns of General Mills Larro Research Farm, Detroit, giving a blood transfusion is a simple procedure which can be done easily, with tha help of a qualified veterinarian. A 12 or 14-gauge bleed- ing needle is used to draw blood from the jugular vein in the neck groove o,f a healthy, mature cow. This cow can be selected at random from the herd  eir€,e he neepd ot be'the dam 9f ,the ick Ctil£ The' Cow's blood is €0111cted in a clean, quart milk bottle or other suitable container in which has been placed sufficient soluble oxalate, so- dium citrate, or other anticoagulant to keep the blood from clotting in the bottle. About one-fifteenth of an ounce, or 2 grams, of sodium oxalate should be sufficient to prevent clot- ting in as much as a quart of blood, LARRO RESEARCH FARM PHOTO if the bottle is agitated moderately from time to time while the blood is being drawn from the cow. Approxi- mately a pint, or slightly more, of blood should be used to treat a sick calf, As soon as drawn from the cow', this blood is introduced by gravity flow into the jugular vein ef the sick cal by means of a funnel attached to a piece of rubber tubing fastened to a bleedtn needle inserted in the calf's jugular vein. The success with which blood transfusions have been used for some calf ills commends this method of treatment for much wider use than it has received up to the present time. The treatment is highly Lpractt'- cal because it calls only for materials which are readily obtainable. The therapeutic or medicinal value of whole blood has reeeived er: attention and application in human medicine in recent years. Certainly it is worthy of further use in treating certain calf disorders such as those caused by infectious scours, where frequently, there is nothing to lose and everything to gain. A blood trans- fusion well might save a sick calf which otlierwise would surely perish. Southside Club One of Oldest The Southside 4-H club is one of the longest organized clubs in Mason county. This comnmnity has had an active club ever since 1925: Until recent years there has been the agricultural club and lmme economics club but the past several years the organiza- tion has been handled as a com- munity 4-H club with the var- ious projects. Records are somewhat incom- plete as to who the leaders were until 1935 when Lee Huston took over the reign and has led the club ever since. He is now a well scasoned veteran of 4-H club work, after 11 years of continu- ous working with young" folks. Many of the young folks of the community have been in his club. The girls clubs have had more of a turnover in leadership. Am- ongtim early leaders was Mrs. J. E, Underwood. Others include Evelyn Leggett, Catherine Evans, Mrs. Laurie Hill, Mrs. Louis Aaehe, Margaret 'vVolden, Mrs. chas. Chase. Mrs, C. Okerstrom is a present leader of the girls projects. Skokomish Young Folks Wanted to be 4-H'ers So Formed Junior Club The fact that a boy or girl had to be 10 years old to join a 4-H club irked some of the young folks in Skokomish Valley. If those over 10 years- could have a club why not those under ten? These youngsters really wanted a 4-H club, so Mrs, Thee, Richert decided to see what could be done. As a result the Skokomish Jr. 4-H Club was organized. The members range iu age from eight to 11 years. The club now has 17 members having project in gar- dening, poultry, rabbits and dairy and beef calves. The officers of the club are At- lee Johnson, president; Fred Sjo- lmlm, vice-president; and Bob Wilson, secretary. These mem- bers keep tlaeir leaders as' well as themselves very busy, May 4: llly. Day Date; Skokomish School Site Saturday, May 4, 10:30, at the Middle Skokomish School is the setting for the Rally Day, advises County Agent Okcrstrom. All 4.H Club' members should plan to at- tend this occasion. Also, club members, bring your parents to this meeting. Various features of educational and entertainment will be staged by the members. Club members should remember to bring a sack lunch, Caroline Reiman Edits 4-H Issue by Clinton Okerstrom The responsibility of publishing this first 'edition of the 4-H sec- tion has been placed upon the club members. Those who were older and haw had some exper- ience were naturally among those selected. The members elected Caroline Reiman as editor and Margaret Valley as assistant editor. Caroline is a newcomer in the 4-H club work but she really is doing a fine job and is showing her ability as a leader. Pat Hart and Elinore Brum- baugh volunteered to contact the business concerns for advertis- ing in the paper. The girls have done much of the business work of the paper and have made the assignments of ar- ticles. Thanks to these girls and all the contributors of articles. Also thaaks to, the business concerns who have supported the 4-H Club members' efforts, Kiwanis Support Much Help to 4-H The Shelton Kiwanis Club is supporting the 4-H program m ftfll force.

We have had demonstrations on making salads, cookies and sand- wiches. We served a lunch at the March P.-T.A, meeting which consisted of potato salad, sand- wiches and coffee, which made $6.23 for our club. At the P.-T.A.

Achievement Day Big 4-H Event Achievement day is held each year following the completure of records and contests. The main object of Achieve- ment day is to present the var- ious awards that each member has achieved.

The points are received for attendance of the members, demonstrations given during the year, and other items. Last year the Isabella Valley Club received the plaque. On Achicvmen day we learn new games and songs. We .also have a speaker that talks on var- ious 4-H items. All in all we have a swell time meeting other club members, leaders and parents. VIOLA KNUDSEN, Reporter. Food Preserving Important to 00L.H by Shirley Abel Last year foodrpreservation was a very important project in 4-H work. As food was scarce, all that could be harvested had to be eat- en or preserved. In our county many of the girls who took canning last year are taking this project again. Be- sides getting credit in 4-H work, you receive a lot of self credit when you see the rows of filled jars. We all know that food will be more maportant this year, as so many other countries need our help. So I'm sure any girl taking preservation won't be sorry for this choice.
