MISTAKEN
Are Farm Women, Who Think
Government Will Make Indi-
viduaI Money Grants.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. oct. g.
Many letters are being received by
the United States Department of Ag-
rtculture which indicates that farm
women in various sections of the
country have come to believe that the
government is about to assist them
with grants Of money to individuals.
This unfortunate mistake which, it Is
feared, will be the cause of consid-
cradle disappointment. appears to
have arisen through misunder-
standing Of the Smith-Lever act re-
Gently passed by Congress. Under
this act funds contributed both by
the federal and state governments
are made available for practical dem
onstration work I'M agriculture and
home economics. Experts from the
agricultural colleges and county
agents. both men and women, are to
show farmers and farm women the
value Of modern methods In agri-
culture and housekeeping. and dem
onstrate the use of labor-saving de-
vices. The purposes OF the act are
thus entirely educational; and there
are no provisions whatever for tll-
rect financial assistance
This demonstration work which
the Smith-Lever act is designed to
promote has already met with con-
siderable success in the states where
1t has been started, but the addition
al funds now available will greatly
increase its efficiency. To avail
themselves to the full OF its posi-
bilities the department officials rec
commended that farm women form
local clubs and then communicate
with the county agent or the state
agricultural college. In this way It
will often be possible to secure a
visit from the county agent or from
the home economies expert.
