DESERVED PROMOTION
FOR MR.. COOLEY

Mr.. A. G. Cooley, who has served
rs agriculturist for the San Luis
valley counties for more than a
year. has been offered the position
of director of agricultural extern
sion in the New Mexico Agricul-
tural college, with very attractive
opportunity for service in organic
ing n new division in the college.
Mr.. Cooley will accept the New
Mexico offer, especially as it allows
him to continue his present posi-
ton until a successor can be chosen
and introduced to the work that
Mr.. Cooley has organized with such
distinctive ability as to win the at
tention of college men within and
without the state.
Mr.. Cooley began work in the
San Luis valley last summer, and
has made n notable success in or
ganizing the farmers and towns
men of the five counties for which
he is working. His leaving the
state will be n serious loss. espe-
cially to the San Luis valley; but
with this feeling of loss will be
mingled a sense of pride in the
honor that has come to Mr.. Cooley
and those with whom he has Ia
bored. During the conference of
college and department of agricul-
ture men held in Denver Mr.. Cooley
was offered two different positions
refusing to consider either except
on condition that he be allowed
time to close his work properly in
the valley and train competent
successor.
This large opportunity that has
come to one of Colorado's county
agriculturists is an illustration of
the value of thorough training in
agriculture. Mr., Cooley graduated
in 1911 from the Utah Agricul-
tural college; then taught agricul-
ture in the Ogden high school
then resigned as teacher and
went into commercial work to be
ready at days notice to take
work as a county agricultural agent,
In June, 1913, Mr.. Cooley received
telegram from Prof. ID. w. Frear,
of the State Agricultural college,
Offering him work in the San Luis
valley, and in two hours after re-
ceiving the message, in North Da-
kots, was on the way to Colorado
to take up the work in which he
has made distinct success, win
ming the confidence and esteem of
his superiors in the Agricultural
college and the United States de-
partment of agriculture.
President @, A. Lory of the State
Agricultural college recently wrote
ms follows to IA friend of Mr.. Cooley:
81 am sorry to see Mr.. Cooley 60
He has done such excellent work
in the San Luis valley that we
shall miss him greatly. His new
position, however, is such a great
one and comes as a well .merited
promotion that rejoice in his
success

most the equivalent Of passenger train
time.
In this connection the performance
Of fast trains No. and 80 between At
Ianta and Martin over the Nashville,
Chattanooga & ST. Louis Railway show
what efficient service has done. During
the month of August No. s was on
schedule time twenty-four out Of thirty
one days, with an ayerave delay Of only
ten minutes in the twenty-four hour
run, while No. 80 was ON schedule time
twenty seven days with an average de-

This service handles goods from West
Tennessee through Chattanooga and
Nashville, connecting with trains for the
north and northwest, and its Importance
is readily understood by the shippers
along the route.
