In the organizing of agricultural

been strikingly similar, very instruc-

quite funny. In reply to questions
relative to this particular line Of work
letter from our friend, Irving c.
Norwood, secretary of the Davenport
Commercial Club. Davenport, Ia,
will doubtless be interesting. The
letter is in part as follows:
Sin the summer Of 1912 the secre-
tary OF this organization and the
president Of the First National Bank,
who is live one and wanted to make
himself solid with the soil-tillers.
toured Scott county in 1909 Cadillac
visible, distributing literature, call
ing meetings, tlcketing the bell-cows
Of every township, and doing other
needful things in connection with the
formation Of county agricultural
organization. The Commercial Club
provided an office, furniture, steno-
graphic help, and other necessaries,
the government contributed $1,000 a
year, the business men OF Davenport
dug up an even larger sum. and the
farmers Of Scott county yielded
S124.19. With favorable wind
their means could be heard for miles.
"Cheered by the results, we in
duced kindly millionaire with a
penchant for agriculture to guaran-
tee the payment of any deficit that
might be incurred, and launched the
Scott County Farm Improvement
League upon chilly world. Then
we bought a secondhand Ford car
and a tank OF gasoline, hired SOL
emn young man from Ames, and we
were ready for business.
"Our success was not exactly i'm
mediate. Although the young man
from Ames can tell from looking at a
rolled oat whether 1t was planted
with drill or shotgun, and is
equally proficient in other directions,
he was at first the object Of consid-
cradle suspicion. Some farmers met
him on the wrong side Of the front
gate, with their hands on their In
gersolls, and some of them shooed
their stock in the barn when the
secondhand Ford car hove in sight.
His advice was as welcome as case
of smallpox and was followed as lit
orally as the ten commandments. And
when he insisted there were better
methods of testing seed corn than by
looking at 1t wisely through pair OF
ten-cent specs; that cholera serum
was not invented by black-hearted
confidence men to separate the far
mer from his loose change; that al

that sprayed trees yield more and
better fruit-he was looked upon as
a hopeless and dangerous lunatic.
