TEAM WORK Brings
SPEEDY RESULTS
School Boys Used in New York
To Take Census.

NEW YORK CITY. May 17.-Tive
days after the New York State Food
Commission sent out blanks to the
farmers of that state, it had in it's
possession complete facts as to all the
needs and prospects Of all it's farms
1t knew how much "help', was need
ed; how many men and boys, women
and girls, were wanted by the farmers
and just where each and all of them
We're wanted.
What New York state did in rec
ord breaking time and with record
breaking efficiency every other state
of the 4S in the nation can do as
quickly and as we'll by using the same
ready to hand machinery.
The bulk Of the work was done by
the school children of the state. Two
days after the Agricultural College of
Cornell university working with the
food commission had placed its "cen-
sus' blanks in the hands Of the school
teachers of every rural school district
in the state the children of the schools
had returned the blanks with every
answer filled in! Schools had been
dismissed from regular routine work
to do this special constructive work
And while hundreds of thousands of
school boys and girls were scurrying,
one or two to each farm house, in the
for the state and for the nation, they
themselves were learning about their
state. They were taking an eager,
educative part in the patriotic task of
mobilizing the productive, Industrial
forces of their country.
These young census takers of the
schools learned and reported that New
York state farmers needed $4,000
farm hands: that they wished very
few boys and fewer girls: that 5000
women could be employed in extra
farm homework. They learned and
reported that the farmers of their
state had plowed an unusually large
acreage but might not get it all
planted, and certainly could not get it
all harvested, unless they could get
more Of seed and more workers than
at present seemed available. They
learned and reported equally essential
facts concerning the livestock and
poultry resources and prospects, the
fertilizer needs, AID, incidentally, the
marketing and transportation effects
upon the business of food production.
The SCHOOLS and the school chill
dren (whom all the states possess)
were fitted into "team work" with the
agricultural colleges and with con-
| meeting commissions and country farm
boards (Which, also, all the states pos
! sess.) Volunteer, unpaid-for help was
| given, for tabulating the returns, etc.,
