labor for agricultural purposes in Ari- Zona has resulted in bringing thou sands of much needed laborers into the agricultural communities, thus releas- ing many of the laborers for the indus trial work
 In the summary of the regular work of the council he referred to the re- markedly efficient work of Lin B. Orme, in charge of the Boys Working Reserve, as follows:
 Active assistance given to the Boys Working Reserve in Maricopa county, and boy scouts in Yavapai county, in agricultural work done this summer. This work, throughout the state, has been placed under the leadership of MT. Lin B. Orme, who has devoted much time and energy to the wrok, with very successful results. This boys reserve in Maricopa county, which was organized under military form, hoed 1000 acres of cotton, dug 9 acres of potatoes and picked S5 acres of melons. Seventy seven boys were employed in this work They earned $7.600, paid all expenses and at the close of the season each boy had a comfortable nest egg of earnings. The camps were run on a strictly business like basis. The spirit shown by the boys was splendid and the same fine spirit of service was shown by the boys in Yavapai county, who were un- der the leadership of County Chairman Hoogestratt. This movement is not only an advantage from an agricul- tural standpoint, but it develops man. liness and a spirit of service on the part of the boys, and it is hoped will be
 largely extended next season.
 MT. Orme's field report was also presented, showing the business-like way in which the boys work was han dled.
