w M fury there have been sew
IBByrlaa IN eral great movements in
yaA.S@&@4 the United States for the
DerLerlnenC of agriculture. Among
these may be mentioned the establish
ment of the State Agricultural Col
leges, the State Experiment Stations,
the United States Department of Agri-
culture, and the County Agricultural
Agent Movement. The latest CT these
movements comes more closely into
touch with the farmer than any of the
others. In fact 1t is the connecting
link between the farm and scientific
agricultural investigation. 1t is the be-
lief of those who stand behind this
movement that within few brief years
a competent, experienced and Scien-
tifically trained agriculturist will be
employed by practically every 8gricul-
tural county in the United States. AL
though the movement is yet in its in
fancy, more than $50 counties in the
eastern, northern, and western states
have taken up this work.
The State of Washington is not lag
ging behind in this movement. At the
last session of the Legislature a law
was passed authorizing the commission
ers of any county to provide and APP
propriate funds for the salary and eX-
penses OF county agriculturist The
law creates "A Bureau of Farm De
velopment," of which the director of
the State Experiment Station is di-
rector. The law also provides for CO.
operation with the Office of Farm
Management of the United States De
partment of Agriculture The Office
of Farm Management and the State
College of Washington have perfected
arrangements for jointly employing
State Leader, who will have the super
vision of all of the county men within
the state. Eight counties, namely,
Wahkiakum, Benton, Lincoln, Spo-
kane, Walla Walla, Adams, Douglas,
and Okanogan now have county agri-
culturists at work. Several other
counties are also considering the en-
ployment Of county men.

The Kind of Men Selected.

Where it is possible to do SO, men
are selected for these positions who
were raised upon farm, who have fin
lshed a four-year college course in
agriculture and who have had several
years of practical experience in farm
ing or along investigational lines after
leaving college. 1t is very desirable
that men Of mature Judgment be
selected, for county position is a
most difficult place to fill. SO far such
men have been found for the positions
now being filled in this state.
The Work of the County Agriculturist.
Upon taking up his work the county
agriculturist will acquaint himself, as
rapidly as possible, with the several
agricultural conditions of his county,
study the various types of soils and the
crops and types of farming that have
been most successful on each type Of
soil.

Five minutes later the foreigners

face of beautiful young girl, uncon5

words, "drive fast, stop for nothing!"
Hubert reached his own boarding
house. He dismissed the puzzled and
wondering hackman. Then he car
ried the girl up to his room, sum-
moned the landlady and sent for a
doctor. -
1t was nearly midnight when the
physician succeeded in arousing the
girl from her deep torpor. For three
hours thereafter she, the landlady
and Hubert, formed trio engaged
in explanations.
The young girl had been kidnapped
from private school by the foreign
ers. They we're professional black
mailers. Her parents were travelling
on the continent and were immensely
wealthy.

The woman! A sense of curiosity,
interest, chivalry came to the front
with the young journalist. The ro-'

in token of introduction. They led

bank notes to Hubert. "The rest will

Hubert accepted the money. What
was he plunging into-a kidnapping
exploit? However, he was in the
midst of the scheme now, and he
nerved himself to go through it. He
halted at a cab stand and engaged
four-wheeled vehicle. One of his
companions got up on the seat out
side with the driver, giving the latter
a direction.
After a devious route, leading into
the foreign quarter of London, the
vehicle halted. 1t was within a dark
and lonely court.
