COUNTY EXPERIMENT FARM
HOW IT WILL Be ARRANGED AND WHAT IT IS EXPECTED
TO ACCOMPLISH

At the beginning of operations of
The County Experiment Farms of the
state, IL Is the wish of the manage
| ment that the people shall know just
how the farms are to be managed and
what they may be expected to do that
will be helpful to the people. The
| plan of operation is to be submitted 70
the County Agricultural Society for ap-
proval. After this the management, as
is provided for by the law under which

, II is the desire of the management

plication, under local conditions, OF the
results of the Investigations of the
Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station,
and for the purpose Of increasing the
effectiveness Of the agriculture of the
, various counties of the state, County
Experiment Farms may be established.
In other words the experiments that
have paid best and have given best re.
suits at the State Experiment Station
at Wooster shall be tried out on the
County Experiment Farms where they
can be seen by the people. In Miami
and Paulding counties, where the Elk.
pertinent Farms are now being operat.
ed for the second season, several of

10. Plant diseases and control OF
noxious weeds.
II. Injurious insects and fungus
diseases.
These various lines OF work will be
carried on to certain extent on each
Of the County Experiment Farms. Any
citizen of the county may visit the
farm in season and inspect the various
experiments in progress. Agricultural
questions may be referred to the
County Experiment Farm ut any time
for answer. The resident manager
must not be expected to answer al Of.
these questions, however, but they will
be referred to the proper specialist at
Wooster, who will answer them direct
ly. If the matter referred to is Of
sufficient Importance an expert will
visit the locality and thoroughly In
vestigate the problem. This, however.
will only be necessary and can only
be done in special cases.
The County Experiment Farm is
, owned by the people Of the county and
should benefit the people Of the city as
well as the county. The question Is
often asked--How are the city people
to be benefited? 1t Is a well estab.
lished fact that whatever benefits the
country, benefits the city. When we
have prosperous agriculture all other
pursuits prosper. Better farming
means better food supply. The bet.
ter the farmer is trained in the science
and art of farming the better will be
the quality Of all food products placed
upon the market The County Expert.
ment Farms will benefit the city peo-
pie by supplying better and more
wholesome fruits, dairy products, cere-
ais, meats. poultry products, etc.
An annual financial statement will
be made to the county commissioners
Of all expenditures and receipts In
connection with the management and
operation Of the farms. An annual re-
port will also be made of results Of all
experiments being conducted and Civ
ing details of the various lines OF work
in progress upon the farms.
These reports will be free to oil
citizens of the county.
