Six hundred thousand 4 H members in 48 states work on the 1956 National 4 H Safety Program to reduce farm and home hazards. They survey, demonstrate, and display safety topics, with GM incentives including four gold medals, trips, and $300 scholarships for national winners. The program is run by the Cooperative Extension Service with National Committee on Boys and Girls Club Work.

Innovations include twin broilers, raisable backs, disposable linings, 40 inch ovens, quick heat units, built-in surface units, and doors that swing down or open as twin doors for easier cooking and faster meals.
Fertilizer Carryover Depends On Soil Type And Conditions
The amount of fertilizer that carries over to next year varies with soil texture moisture and crops. Silt and clay increase carryover while sandy soils reduce it. Drier seasons boost residue benefits and nitrogen phosphate and potash carryover differ by nutrient and soil type. The Agricultural Service Division of Union Bag & Paper Corp urges soil testing and specialist guidance for best yields.
