and he feels that much good will be
the result of the cooperative effort
which is now under way.

reclamation of poor land through the
devotion of soil to the cultivation Of

was the general idea that only nat
lands are fit for cultivation. He points
out that small fruits and things OF
this sort can be cultivated successfully
on the hill sides OF Cabell county.
He believes that the agricultural ex-
tension idea is in its infancy and that
West Virginia will witness great re-
suits Of the movement In few years.
He intimates a belief that within
a year or two it will be so arranged
that the county funds for the co-opera-

ment may be provided from the coun-
