Mr. Montgomery is a graduate of the Macdonald College and the Ontario Agricultural College. Before joining the railway, he served as an assistant tural representative and agricul- tural representative with the On- tario department of agriculture. At one time he served as assist- ant to Durham county agricultur al representative, A. Oliver Dal rymple_in Hastings county 4-H EXPLAINED Mr. Montgomery said 4-H work was first introduced in the Unit- ed States between 1900 and 1910. The initial clubs were nature study and corn clubs which soon became prominent in the states of Ohio, Indiana, New York and Illinois. By 1910, the program broadened to include wheat, po- tato and garden clubs for boys and baking, sewing and canning clubs for the girls The name 4-H and the symbo lic four-leaf clover emblem was approved and became official in the U.S. in 1914 Records of the early beginning of 4-H club work in Canada are not too complete, however it is known the first clubs were form- ed between 1912 and 1915. The first clubs were calf, swine and garden clubs. The number of different type projects and memberships have gradually in- creased over the years. Last year, 4-H membership rose to a new high of 75,8881 members en- rolled in 5270 clubs across Can- ada Membersh about equally hoys and E ment in the girls' clothing project leads all 4-H activities, followed by dairy clubs, beef and garden. ONTARIO MEMBERS In 1959, there were enrolled in the province of Ontario, 24,019 club members in 2051 clubs. There is considerable more room for expansion of the program as only s tly over 10 per cent of Canada's eligible voung people are currently enrolled, and in the U.S.. only 17.8 per cent of those eligible are enrolled in 4-H work The whole 4-H program in Can- ada js co-ordinated by the Cana- dian Council of 4-H clubs.
