"The child OF kindergarten age is so

means must be devised to eliminate

be raised and maintained for the sur

REPRESENTATIVES
Z NOT COUNTY ADVISERS

@ssAdvice is q word that has been ON
erworked, and now some are calling
the county agents county adviscrs".
&gThis shows hat the nature Of the
work of the county representatives is
misunderstood. He. does some adWis-
Dry work, but this us a minor part OF
his dudes, which may be outlined as
follows:
= 1. H~e,studReS the~agriCulture Of the

what is worth while agriculturally in
sach part of it. This study includes
farm financial land organization sur
yevs.

The task of improving the agriculture
Of an entire county is so s~tupendous
that the agent must be primarily an

accept the help Of voluntary assistants
in work
6. He acts as the connecting link
between the experiment station, the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, and the farmer, presenting the
results of Investigations in such a way
tina the farmer can use them, and
calling the attention of the experiment.
station staff TO the local agricultural
their assistance.
I. He gives advice. This may re-
late to spraying, seed treatment, hand
ling manure, combating insect pests,
cultural practices. or other miscellan-
eous matters which are the stock in
trade Of every we'll informed agent.
The giving of advice is seventh on the
list, because in actually improving the
agriculture of the county it is probably
Of least Importance, though in point
OF time it may be the first work I'M
Gertaken.
Those familiar with the work Of the
better farming men in North Dakota
will better realize the force of the
above statements. North Dakota has
in the better farming section OF the
experiment station, more county rep
resentatiTes than any other state, so
it is important that the people of the
state know the real work that these
men are doing.
