Washington. July 20.-Iowa will get
about $4,000 this fiscal year as her
share of the appropriation OF 100000
which congress will allow for federal
aid to farm management. While the
matter is still in conference between
the house and senate, 1t is believed It
will be allowed. Tne matter is taking
on much importance. Secretary Will
son has become convinced It is going
to mean much Improvement in farm
methods. Next year he expects to ask
for double as much, or 100000. the
plan being for the federal government
to pay half the salary OF q competent
farm management expert in counties
willing to pay the other half. Most Of
the money will go to northern states,
as the south receives federal aid for
farm demonstration work. The two
lines Of work are distinct. In the farm
management work the purpose is to
have the expert for any given county
kept busy the year around. travelling
thruout the county. advising farmers
meetings how to cope with soil, crop
and other agricultural problems and
even the problem Of transportation Of
farm products to market and their ad-
vantageous sale.
