we can reach, interest and help this
class of farmers the beneficial effects

dustries.
The experiment stations are doing
their work well. Our college of agri-
culture offers advantages along agri'
cultural lines. Much is being accom-.
plished by the agricultural short
courses and farmers institutes.
The United States farm demonstra.
ton agents are doing valuable work
with individual farmers in special
crop production, but the field for the
county demonstration farm is not GOV.
cred It will afford opportunity for
continuity of effort in soil building;
1t will serve as an object lesson: a
practical working demonstration, not
only with few acres for special
crop, but covering every feature OF
farm work. It will form a center for
community interest; it will bring the
farmers together; will develop coop
Grafton; will make possible and prac
tical community specialization in
breeding live stock. and specializing
In crop production, guaranteeing best
prices to farmers for their products
We have abundant evidence that
the farmers interest in the demon
stration farm work is aroused; we
have inquiries from every county In
the state asking how the demonstra
ton farm can be secured.
The department of agriculture sug
gests that the county court of each
county wanting the demonstration
farm buy tract OF land typical Of
the farms of the county, that the
equipment and labor be provided by
the county and the county receive all
the revenues from the farm. This
should be paying investment for the
county, because the farm, to serve its
purpose, must produce profit anf
increase the fertility each year.

PUT One IN EVERY COUNTY
Such Methods and Practices, Il u As

Development Of Better and More
Profitable Agricultural Conditions.
(By Capt. T. F., Peck. State Commits
sioner OF Agriculture.)

NASHVILLE. Dec. 30.-Since /
have been connected with the depart
ment of agriculture have been arg-
ing the Importance and value Of a
county demonstration farm in every
county to demonstrate the results Of
the work of original investigation
done by the experiment stations,
Experimental work Is too expensive
70 be carried on by the individual
farmer, and he is not equipped in a
majority of the cases with the nee
essary education for the work. Then
there Is no necessity for experiment
ing by farmers on facts proven by the
experiment stations. The important
thing to do Is to present the facts to
farmers on the demonstration farm
in way that will be applicable to
them on their farms
/ have insisted that the demonstra-
ton farm should be typical Of the av-
erage farm, and the equipment should
be within reach of the average farm
er, and no farm operation should be
undertaken beyond the reach Of the
average farmer to follow on his farm.
Two results should always be attain
ed-increased production and increas-
ed fertility.
To interest the farmer he must see
how he can increase his production
and increase the fertility Of his farm,
without making expenditure out OF
his reach. When this Is shown him
and he has successfully taken the
first step, he will more willingly make
the second and third; each step In
his progress will make the next one
easier. @ eas
Now, when I started this agitation,
knew the department Of agriculture
did not have any funds for getting the
work under way, but knew 1t would
take time to get the farmers to I'M
derstand and appreciate the impor-
lance of the demonstration farm and
that 1t did not interfere with any otn-
er work along agricultural lines. but
intended to strengthen and make
more effective the other work under
way.
/ have been trying to get the farm
er to understand the difference be-
tween the work Of the experiment sta
ton. and that of the demonstration
farm The first solves the problem
confronting the farmer: the latter
demonstrates to the farmer how ne
can apply the solution on his farm
and increase his revenues.
We all know that for every pro-
gressive farmer who Is keeping
abreast of the progress in agricultu-
raj pursuits we have at least ninety
who are not making progress; whose
methods are antiquated: who are al
