Page 6__________________PIONEER________________November 17, 1943 FFA BOYS PRODUCE 1,693 TONS OF FARM PRODUCTS The younger generation of nisei farmers of Amache, the FFA boys have just com- pleted their successful harvesting season. It has been successful in more than one way--first, the lads set a production goal that will equal that of any school in the United States--second, they did a splendid task in such a short period--and third, despite the labor shortage, the boys prepared 500 acres of uncleared land. When harvest was all over, their figures read 400 tons of alfalfa, hay, 10,000 bushels of corn, 800 tons of corn fodder and milo, 100 tons of po- tatoes, 10 tons of dried beans, 18,000 ears of ear- corn, and 13 tons of toma- toes. This production feat was only accomplished after the 40 youths had toiled night and day in cold and hot weather. So these wil- ling and hardworking boys deserve a great deal of credit for their accomplish- ment under the supervision of Jim Burgert, Mas Wata- nabe and Gerald Griffith. Special recognition must be given to Jim Burgert who "got out there with the boys and received more than his share in sweat and grime." THANKS We wish to thank our many friends who com- forted us during our recent bereavement. Sincerely, Domoto Family 6F-5C HOMEMADE GIFTS FOR YWCA CHRISTMAS SALE NEEDED A call for contributions of handmade articles such as straw place mats, hot pads, pot holders, aprons, tea towels, linens, table- cloths, jewelry and other types of handicraft or small works of art is issued by the YWCA.
