An interesting read on 4-H.  Here's an excerpt:
The Demonstration Work undertakes to create in the schoolboy a love of 
the farm and a new hope by showing the wonderful possibilities of the 
soil when properly managed and the ease with which wealth and 
distinction are achieved in rural life when science and art join hands.
-- 
"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will 
not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius 
will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the 
world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone 
are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve 
the problems of the human race"

~ Calvin Coolidge
