Rookkeeper for a Million Farmers.


Bookkeeper for 100000 farmers
that's what the secretary Of the Mis-.
souri, state board Of agriculture really
is, although keeping books is only
part of his business. Each year Sec.
rotary George B. Ellis arranges for and
directs more than $50 farmers insti-
tutes, issues a monthly bulletin on
some agricultural subject and answers
several thousand inquiries that have to
do with almost every phase of farm
life. AS the farmers bookkeeper, it is
the secretary's duty to issue monthly
crop reports during the seeding and
growing seasons, and an annual report
at the end of each year. The monthly
reports always made public at exactly
II O'Clock noon on the first Saturday
in the month, with the exception of the
month of December, when the report
is issued on the second Saturday, are
issued in April May, June, July, Aug
ust, September, October and Deem
Der. A special wheat and oats report
is issued in November. The material
for all these reports is furnished by
oOliC wv CIOp correspondents, repre-
senting every section and every coun-
ty in the state. These reporters are
representative farmers chosen because
of their honesty and ability to make
true and concise reports and because
Of their interest in agriculture. They
serve the state without pay, receiving
in return for their services only the
crop reports and other publications of
the board of agriculture. On next to
the last Thursday in each month pre-
ceding the month in which a crop re-
port is to be issued list of questions
to be answered, and from which the
next report will be made up, is mailed
to each correspondent, who is advised
as to when his report must be in. AS

have been received at the secretary's
office in Columbia the work of tabula.
