OF Farm Expert
Continued from first page)

The agent appointed must be suit
able to the county committee, the
Agricultural College, and the Federal
Agricultural Department and will be
under the supervision of the college.
Representative committees have been
appointed from each commissioners
district of the county to work for the
completion of this plan, and subscrip-
tions may be made to the banks.
These men believe in this movement
but can i'll afford to use their time en-
tirely for it, and we hope everyone
will cooperate with them, and boost,
so that Redwood county may at least
give it fair and impartial trial.
