of students and former students of vocational agriculture in

and associations of those chapters in the States, territories,

and possessions of the United States;

(2) to develop character, train for useful citizenship, and

foster patriotism, and thereby develop competent and aggressive

rural and agricultural leadership;

chapters, and members all official supplies and equipment of the

corporation;

themselves and their work, to encourage members in the

development of individual farming programs, and to promote their

permanent establishment in farming by -

have achieved distinction in vocational agriculture, including

farm mechanics activities on a local, State, or national basis;

and

farmers under 30 years of age who were former students in

vocational education, in accomplishing these purposes; and
