County Expert System Spreads

pointment of this expert. The state
of Washington is the most recent ex-
ample of the spread of this move
ment. A bill has been introduced in
the legislature there and will probably
be passed. For the benefit of other
communities where similar work is
talked of the Washington bill is here
reproduced in full, as follows:
An act creating the bureau Of farm
development of the state of Washing
ton, providing for the appointment
and maintenance of agricultural ex-
perts there under, and empowering
the boards of county commissioners
of the several counties of the state Of
Washington to appropriate and set
aside moneys therefor.
Be it enacted by the legislature of
the state of Washington:
Section 1. There is hereby created
the bureau of farm development Of
the state of Washington, which shall
consist of the president of the State
College OF Washington, who shall be
director thereof, and of the boards Of
county commissioners of all counties
of the state of Washington desiring to
participate therein. The officers and
members of such bureau of farm de-
veIopment shall serve without salary,
and the expense incident to the opera
ton of said bureau of farm develop
ment shall be borne by the county for
which the same shall be incurred.
Sec. 2. Upon the written request
therefor by the board of county COM
missioners of any county of the state
of Washington, the director Of the
bureau of farm development shall ap
point and assign to such county
competent agricultural expert: Pro-
vided, That the board of county COM
missioners applying therefor, shall
always have the right to reject any
appointment, to determine the period
during which such expert shall be
employed and to fix the compensation
of such expert, not exceeding 5000 per
month.
Sec. 8. Such expert shall, during
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1913-03-01

The employment of county experts
or advisers, who shall carry the mes
sage of the agricultural college to the
farm, is becoming more and more q
public issue in every state in the
union, and it is believed by many
that the time is not far distant when
every county in America will have its
paid demonstration as an aid to better
farming. Millions of pages of agri-
cultural information have been dis
tributed in the form of bulletins and
farm papers, but none of them can
ever quite take the place of the man
who knows and who will answer your
questions as to your local problems.
Such man cannot know all about
farming, but he can and should make
it his business to find out just what
you want to know about any problem
on your own farm.
A wide-awake man will pick up
ideas on almost every farm he visits
that should be carried to every other
farm in the county. Ii the local
farmer has not yet solved some vexed
problem, and the demonstration does
not know about it, the latter can
easily write to the college of agri
culture or to the United States de-
partment of agriculture, which has
thousands of experts, and get the best
knowledge which they have. The
county agent cannot know everything,
but he should know where to find any
agricultural information in existence,
how to tell it simply and with effect,
and how to organize the farmers in
his territory along any line of local
need, whether it be for marketing or
for other economic or social purposes.
The usual distribution of the cost
of such a county expert is between
the county concerned and the United
States government. the latter paying
a certain per cent of the expense for
the privilege of selecting the man
who shall serve as demonstrators.
Usually, also, special state law is
needed in order to clear the way for
the county commissioners in the ap-

the period of his employment, reside
and maintain an office within the
county for which he is appointed,
and, with the consent of the board OF
county commissioners of such county
he may employ such assistance as may
be required and purchase such books,
equipment, apparatus, aud material
as may be required, which books,
equipment, apparatus, and material
shall become and remain the property
of the county: Provided, That the
expenses which may be incurred by
the authority of this section shall
never exceed the sum Of $1,000 during
any calendar year.
Sec. 4. Such experts shall give in
dividual instruction and conduct ex-
perimental work with the object of
improving the agricultural methods
and conditions of their counties, and
shall perform such other duties as
may be required, subject to the
general supervision and control of the
director of the bureau Of farm de-
velopment: Provided, That the
boardszof county commissioners shall
always have the right ito cooperate
with the department of agriculture OF
the United States in the appointment,
maintenance and work ..of such ex-
perts; and in such event, the director
of the bureau Of farm development
shall appoint for the county exercis-
ing the privilege herein granted such
person as said department of agri-
culture may recommend. and said ex-
pert shall then be subject to the
general supervision and control of
said department of agriculture, and
said department of agriculture shall
defray such portion as may be agreed
upon of the salary, office expenses,
and othersexpenses incurred by such
expert.
Sec. 5 For the purpose of fully and
effectively carrying out the object
and provisions of this act, the boards
of county commissioners participant
ing herein of the several counties of
the state of Washington are herein
empowered to levy, appropriate, and
set aside such sum of money as may
be necessary not exceeding $4,000 for
any calendar year; and in the event
of a failure from any cause to levy
and appropriate such fund, and until
the next annual tax levy, said boards
of county commissioners are en-
powered to set aside such fund from
the county current expense fund.

TO PREVENT CORN DISEASE
stroy Balls and Avoid Use Of
Fresh Manure
(By +. NJ. FREEMANO

Every farmer is familiar with corn
smut. The largest masses are some
times over six inches in diameter and
are usually found in the ear. Smut
is also found in the tassel, on the
leaves and stem, and even on the
roots which hold the corn plant to the
soil. The smut-mass is blackish, and
is at first covered by whitish film.
which soon breaks and let's loose the
spore-powder. which Is blown about
by the wind. In general, there are two
ways by which the spores get back
on the land, ready to infest the next
years crop First, they may be scat
tered by the wind, or the smut-masses
may be left on the field Second the
smut-dust may get into the fodder
and may pass through the alimentary
canals of the cattle, without being in
tured, and may thus get Into the ma
nure pile. Or, again. the smut.masses
may be thrown into the refuse or
manure pile. In either case they may
be carried back to the soil when the
latter is manured Now, 1t Is an i'm
portant fact that the smut spores not
only may live through the winter in
the manure pile, but they may act

smut is therefore very likely to in
crease smut in corn field The
smut may live for several years in a
manure pile. but will gradually die
out. For this reason, old manure is
much better for fertilizer on corn
field than fresh manure.
In the spring the spores germinate,
producing long chains of new spores.
which are blown about in the wind
and infest any growing part of the
corn plant producing, finally, smut

soil or in manure piles for years.

GLEANlNGS FOR BEE LOVERS
Buckwheat Makes Fine Honey-littlo
Insects Are Benefit to Orchard
Care in Moving.
CBy A. JOSEPHD


If you have the space and would
plant buckwheat you will find 1t
makes fine honey. Plant it late so It
will bloom when all other flowers are
gone.
Some people think bees destroy
fruit. but that is not so. The birds
pick the fruit and as usual thing
they bite at the ripest on the trees
and when the bees find these fruits.
they devour them and leave nothing
but pit and skin. The damage to ripe
fruit is never started by bees; and
after being damaged by the birds it
is useless for marketing and, If 1t is
not removed from sound fruit next
to it, the one it touches will rot also.
Thus you see the bees are a benefit
in the orchard.
In moving bees do not do so until
the weather gets cold. too cold for
them to leave the hive. or they will
not stay. They will go back to the
old location. unless moved mile and
a half or two miles. Then they will
stay without any trouble; but If NOV.
ed only short distance in "a hours
the hives will be pretty well desert
ed
AS general thing bees do not fly
more than a mile or mile and a half
and they become familiar with tho
surroundings within that distance.
