Probably no one factor has
contributed more to the rapidly
increasing prosperity among the
small planters of the South than
the farm demonstration work
now carried on under the aus
pices of the Agricultural De-
partment of the United States.
This work embraces every State
in the South, and hundreds OF
thousands of demonstration
plots have been planted under
the instruction of government
agents, and the farmers, once
ignorant of and skeptical about
the rotation of crops and the
scientific planting and raising Of
corn, are becoming steadily less
and less dependent upon cotton
and tobacco, the most difficult
and unstable of crops. Today
the true value of the govern
ment method is being recog-
nized thro ughout the entire
South, and a wonderful organi-
cation of boys corn clubs has
come into existence. In almost
ever county in the rural dis
tricts there are one or more or
these clubs, planted and cult
waited by the boys under the in
struction furnished them. Nor
have the girls been overlooked:

everyone has heard; but many
do not know that he is only one
of thousands trained and sent
out from Hampton to carry on,
to the best of their ability, the
task of training the Southern
negro to work intelligently, and
take pride, rather than shame,
in his work, however lowly it
may be. There are scores Of
others, the Penn School at St.
Helena, South Carolina, and
Calhoun, in Alabama, among
them. And then, almost un-
known even where they exist,
are hundreds of humble workers
who have gathered about them
few converts and are quietly
but perseveringly planting the
seed they were taught and told
to SOW.
Over all OF these, great and
small, the tireless eyes of DR..
Frissell watch, and his sympathy
and assistance are instant when
a crisis comes.
Then there is the Jeanes
Foundation, a fund of more than
a million dollars, created by DR..
Frissell from money given him
by a Quaker woman years ago,
who would not contribute to
Hampton, but was willing to
have her money used to better
