ganization has done in this state

ganization has done in this state
an d the work that it will yet do,
cannot be measured in dollars and
cents. but because in addition to
that money profit it has also
frightened the lives of our men
and women and children who live
upon the farms. it has given them
social enjoyment, mental i'm
provement and more to live for.
In an address at Grand Forks re-
Gently by Bert Ball of Chicago the
Secretary of the Crop improve
ment Committee. the duties of the
County Agent were outlined as
| follows:
County agricultural agents are
sometimes referred to as County
Advisers" This implies a misun-
derstanding of the real work of
the agent. Advisory work is part
of the agents duties. but is a mi
nor part.
~ He studies the agriculture
OF the county to learn what is be-
ing done and what is worth while
agriculturally in each part of it.
This study includes farm finan-
cial and organization surveys.
% He gives the results of his
studies to farmers, not in the way
of advice. but as facts observed
and conclusions drawn. This is
done through the local press, lee
lures. institutes. circulars. short
courses. and personal interview.
Is Based on these local studies
and the ascertained needs of the
county. clubs, associations. and
the like are organized and the in
dividuals solicited to undertake
definite lines of agricultural i'm
Drovement on their own farms.
a. He endeavors to co-ordi-
nate all existing agricultural ag-
encies within the county. so that
all may work unitedly and eff
|ciently.
81 He develops local leader
ship. The task Of improving the
agriculture of an entire county is
So stupendous that the agent
must be primarily an administra-
tor. He must inspire and accept
the help of voluntary assistants
in work.
(6) He acts as the connecting
link between the scientists of the
research institutions of the state
and nation. and the farmer.
(7) He gives advice. This may
relate to spraying. seed treatment
mixing fertilizers, combating in
sect pests. cultural practices. or
other miscellaneous matter which
is the stock in trade or every we'll
informed agent. The giving of ad-
vice is seventh on the list be-
cause in actually improving the
agriculture Of the county it is pro-
badly Of least Importance, though
in point of time it may be the first
work undertaken.
