WITH THE FARM AGENT

The county agents system as de-
veloped by the Federal Department
of Agriculture in cooperating with
the State Agricultural colleges has
demonstrated its great usefulness as
a means of promoting the full devel-
opment of the Agricultural resources
of the country. Working in intimate
and sympathetic relation with rural
people the county agent is able to Sc
cure the application Of scientific
knowledge and discovery to the bust
ness of the farmer and the home life
of the country people. In the present
war he has been ready to meet the
emergency and to concentrate all
rural forces and organizations in
working out the great problems of
food production and food conserva-
ton. In recognition of his value as
a local leader Congress has supplied
him with funds for the immediate ex-
tension of this system to every agri-
cultural county in the United States.
State and County Councils of De-
Tense and all rural organizations can
do, a patriotic service by assisting the
government and the state in accom-
plishing this end.
David Houston,
Secretary of Agriculture.
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1917-12-27

fective cooperation. than it was able
to do during the past year.
The Department now has at its COM
mand an appropriation Of four and
a quarter million dollars for the pur-
pose of putting a county agent in
every county where there is not al
ready one at work. More than 900
agents have been appointed under it
and other places are being filled as
rapidly as properly qualified men can
be found. By the time the planting
season begins next spring, we shall
have gone long way toward having
county agent in every agricultural
county in the nation.
And so, with closer organization
and more workers in the field, even
the great things we have done this
year can be surpassed next year. The
corn acreage, stupendous as it was
this time, can be still further increas-
ed. And to me our corn crop is one
of the most grandiose of the powers
that have been loosed in the prosecu-
tion of this war. Its very remoteness
from the battle-fields of Frandcegwv
from the battle-fronts of Europe and
the serenity and peacefulness that
brood over it serve but to heighten
its impressiveness. Not our own
splendid navy, nor the great army we
are building up, nor yet the millions
of men that our Allies have poured
into the trenches. nor even the grand
fleet of Britain keeping watch and
ward in its nameless costal fastnesses
not one of these is any more thrill
ing to me than this illimitable sea of
whispering corn.
Readers Of fiction may remember
the fate of the vulture-hearted rail
road magnate of Frank Norris great
novel, "The Octopus, who slipped
into the hold of one of his grain ships
and was buried alive in the avalanche
of roaring wheat. May we not see
some such fate for Prussianism? All
the power of blood and iron of which
the Prussian has made his boast, all
his great ordnance and the FORCES of
Essen, all his forty years Of plotting
and planning to take the world un-
awares and subjugate tall these
shall be overwhelmed and made as
naught by the golden flood of corn
from the peaceful valleys of our
matchless land.

L. W. Stevenson, manager of the

saw the aeroplane, just little south
of west, and apparently it had flashed
a searchlght on the city and appeared
to be stationary for few moments,
and then the light went out. Says il
was very plain and no doubt but what
it was an airship.

nike our showing nd then state with

HOGS FATTEN ON COW PEAS

M H Cottrell, of the farm bureau
development at Memphis, Tennessee,
writes the following regarding a
farmers experience with COW peas.
The cow peas can be grown in this
section with degree of success:
"Gordon Brent sowed COW peas in
his corn at the last cultivation. After
the corn had been gathered he turned
in hogs to pick up the corn that was
left in the field and to eat the COW
peas. The hogs made $40 worth of
gain from each acre pastured.
"More than three million acres of
corn are grown in Memphis territory
and an additional $40 should be OBJ
tanned from every acre in 1918 by
pasturing as Mr.. Brent has this year.
"There is hardly a small farm in
this district where the waste in the
fields will not make a thousand
pounds of gain on hogs"
