MORE FUNDS VOTED
FOR COUNTY AGENTS
Trustees of University of Vermont
Apportion So, 500 Annually for
Franklin, Orleans and Rutland.

The trustees of the University H
of Vermont have apportioned $1,000
annually to the support OF county
agricultural agents in Franklin, Or
leans and Rutland counties. Their
action extends this system to eight I
of the fourteen Vermont counties. T
than obtains in any other state. Fur +
thermore, they have provided for the /
extension of the system to cover four
more counties within. the next five
years The Rutland county agent ha

They are at the service of the farming
interests OF their respective counties.
The university trustees are thus eua-
hled to extend its influence because an
enactment constitutes it the special
agent of the federal government in eX
tension work. The use of these new
funds IN the further extension of the
county agricultural agent system as OPP
| tional and not mandatory. Whether they
shall or shall not bc used thus is pure

However, the system now in vogue in
Bennington, Windham, Windsor, Orange

so that after a thorough survey o.
