Crowds of women struggled along with

IMPORTANT MEAS

Senate Has Passed Bill Providing for
County Agriculturists.

One OF the most important devel-
opment measures pendino in the leg
islature is Senate Bill No. 22z which
empowers boards of county commits
sioners to appoint county agricultur-
lists for their respective counties. An
active campaign in behalf of the
measure has been made by the Colo
RADIO Association of Commercial Ex-
ccutives, the State Agricultural Col
lege and the agricultural and COM
mercial interests OF the state. 1t has
passed. the senate. Supplemental to
this bill is House Bill No. 53S, which III
alters the present county advertising
fund to enable the smaller counties
to take advantage of the other bill.
The practical value of the county
demonstrated in the south, where last
year this work. costing So5o,ooo, re
suited in direct increase in crop pro-
duction of S25,ooo,ooo.
Ell Paso, Logan, Pueblo and the
San Luis Valley counties have already
appointed county agriculturists, whose
business it is to confer with and adj
wise farmers on their own farms, as
to the best methods, seed, crops, in
dustries and systems of farming. The
work is especially needed in the new
er agricultural districts.
As practical measure it has been
shown that the work of the county
agriculturist is more effective than
that of the demonstration or expert
mental farm. Under the latter plan
the latest of machinery and the best
of equipment is always provided and
this does not encourage the farmers
who are not able TO buy the same ma

pert the best features OF the expert
mental farm are embodied as it is
the plan TO arrange with several OF
the more progressive farmers OF each
county to conduct farms under his di-
rcCtion.

showed very good form. A new pitcher,
Wayne Roelsson, a freshman, was in the
box for Rocky Ford. He pitched a coed
game and with more practice a great
deal is expected of him as well as other
members of the team. 1t is very encour-
