Report of the Work of the Middlesex County Extension Service in Acton During 1934
The following report is given of the work of Middlesex County Extension Service in this town for the year 1934.
The town of Acton has served more or less as a central meet- ing place for farm organizations of Middlesex County. Middle- sex County Dairy Farmers' Association and the Herd Improve- ment Association hold all of their meetings in this town. Also the County Poultrymen's Association meetings are held every month except during the summer.
Meetings were held of interest to fruit growers on picking and packing apples. Many individual farm requests have been an- swered, either through the office or by making personal farm visits. These have had to do largely with the poultry and fruit men.
Under the C. W. A. project for cutting down ieglected apple trees some assistance was rendered in the organization and de- velopment of the project.
At Acton Fair judges were furnished for several departments and assistance given in arranging some of the exhibits.
Ninety-two boys and girls are enrolled in Acton in 4-H club work. The membership is divided among Clothing, Home Fur- nishing, Poultry, Garden and Handicraft projects. John McGuire and Robert Clapp had unusually fine gardens and were both awarded money prizes by the Middlesex North Agricultural Society. This society sends a man to judge the boys' and girls' gardens in the northern part of the county, awarding prizes to the best.
The junior committee for the Acton Fair headed by Joseph Perry, Superintendent, did a fine job. In spite of dry weather the garden exhibits were good and there was an increase in all other exhibits. The committee took entire charge of the 4-H building.
North and Center Acton have had regular organized groups in homemaking, studying Nutrition, Home Management, Garden- ing and Canning. Miscellaneous meetings were held in West
67
and South Acton. All leader training meetings for the Nas- hoba section have been held in Acton Center; the Woman's Club house offers excellent facilities for such work. A study group in West and Center Acton is discussing the problems of the pre- school child. These leader schools are conducted by Mrs. Ruth Morley, State Child Guidance Specialist.
The home agent has met with a group of interested men to talk over the possibilities of a recreational center in Acton. The fair grounds would make an ideal center if proper arrangements can be made. Two state recreation specialists and Mr. Carl Scraeder from the State Department of Education spoke at some of these committee meetings. The topic will be discussed this winter, and we hope definite plans will be made.
It should be remembered that the work of the Middlesex County Extension Service is free to all citizens of the county who desire to participate in its work. It is organized primarily to serve farmers, homemakers and boys and girls residing in rural sections, but homemakers, back yard gardeners and boys and girls in villages may also avail themselves of this service.
