Chamber of Commerce Wants to'Help
Ml Club Boys
At a recent meeting of the Board
of Directors of the Camden apd Kyrshaw
County Chamber of Commerce
il was .demded to foster the financing
of Qne hundred 1-11 club boys in Ker^haw;
county who need help in purchaswlg
purebred pigs and gilts.
The Chamber of Commerce is to
finance a good number of these out
of its own funds, but the majority
will be financed by individual men,
business houses and banks. A large
number of individuals and business
houses have subscribed. Under this
plan, for instance, Mr. John Doe, 4
business man in the county desires
to help one or more boys. Mr. Doe's
name will be placed on the list in the
Chamber of Commerce office. Mr.
Green furnishes the Chamber of
Commerce with a^JList^of boys needing
financial assistance? The boy and
Mr. Doe will be put in touch with
each other. If the boy wants to
buy a $10 registered pig and has only
$3.00, then Mr. Doe will lend the
necessary $7.00. The Chamber of
Commerce and Mr. Green are^inxious
that the transaction be carried
out on a strictly business4>asis, therefore,
the 4-H boy and his father or
mother or guardian will execute a
note and mortgage in favor of Mr.
Doe, the pig being the collateral. The
transaction will be handled through
the Chamber of Commerce office.
This plan not only helps the boys
to get the pigs but also gives them
a bit of business experience.
The rate of interest on these notes
will be (> per cent, per annum. The
loans for purchasing pigs will be IK
months, for bred gilts 12 months and
for pure bred calves 18 to 21 months.
The Chamber of Commerce is anxious
that each case be a success.
While it is desired to help every boy
in the county who needs help it is
also desired that only those who are
unable to finance themselves and
those who are prepared to care for
and feed these animals, will use this
plan. The Chamber of Commerce
would like to eventually finance 500
boys as it is believed that hog raising
offers one of the best methods
of putting agriculture in Kershaw
County on a profitable basis.
Boys who are interested in being
financed as outlined above will please
see Mr. Green and enroll in the 4-H
club.
Business men and institutions who
are iuterestedl in cooperating will
please get in touch with the Chamber
of Commerce.
Assistant County Agent.
Mr. J. It. Odell will assist with 4-H
club work in Kershaw county thfi.
month of June. With increasing enrollment
and interest in the boys' club
work. County Agent Green called on
Clemson for assistanradfaf1,a month.
Mr. Odell is extra ^ell qualified for
I-II club work by hav far been a club f I
lx>y himself for several years prior to
going to Clemson for his college education.
He is at pr<^ent connected
with the S. O. Experiment station.
His home is at Liberty, S. C.
Like Mr. B. O. Williams, State Club
Agent. Mr. Odell is vitally interested
in developing the rural youth of
South Carolina. He was very highly
recommended to Mr. Green by Dr.
Long. State Director of Extension
Service.
Forest fires continue to do very
serious and widespread damage in
the forests of Maine.
