FERTILIZER AND
FEED BILL AGAIN
SPECTACULAR CONTEST OF 1912
TO BE RENEWED IN THE NEXT
GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Baton Rouge.-That the fight Of 1912
will be renewed at the coming session
of the General Assembly to place the
fortified and feed stuff inspection
work under the direction of the expert
ment station, is indicated in the re-
port of w. R. Dodson, director of the
State Experiment Station, to Governor
Hall.
"The fertilizer and feed stuffs con,
troll work should be reorganized if
the best results are to be secured"
said Dr.. Dodson.
Legislative enactments from time
to time have so entangled the duties
of those engaged in the agricultural
activities of the state that some OF
the old laws should be repealed and
new laws enacted, that will clearly set
forth the fields of activity in which
the state is to engage in promoting
agricultural development, and more
clearly define the responsibilities OF
those who may be elected or employ
ed to do the work, as well as the au-
thority of the boards to whom respon-
sibilities are entrusted.
"As a illustration of this entangle-
ment | cite you to the fact that the
Board of Supervisors of the Louisiana
State University elected the professor
of agriculture at the State University,
who, ex-officio becomes director of the
experiment stations. The work of the
stations is under the supervision Of
the State Board of Agriculture and I'M
migration. We thus have one board
electing man to have have charge
of the work over which we have no
control, and another board having con-
troll of the work without authority to
employ or discharge men to do the
work.
Again, there is division of authority
in the inspection and analysis of ferti-
lizers and feedstuffs that is detrimen-
tai to the best service.
Scientific investigation is pre-emi-
nently the first function of the ex.
pertinent stations. For the best re,
suits, those engaged in this work
should be relieved very largely of
~ har rocpopcihj1f4joo
"There are but two reasons that |
know of from the farmers viewpoint
why the work of fertilizer and feed,
stuff inspection should be participated
in by the experiment stations, since
we have passed through the pioneer
stages Of investigation along these
lines. One reason that has been ad.
YanCed for such participation is that
the analytical work is scientifically
technical, and only technically train,
ed men should be employed to do this
work; and that such men being out
Of the realm of politics would not be
employed by political officers. The
other reason Is that the stations have
received pecuniary aid In carrying on
their work by the net revenue re
naming after paying the expenses oil
the inspection and analytical service.
