co. A0RlCuLTuRAl AGENTS
a, MILITARY NECESSITY

The FederaB Government has out
lined a very definite program for the
development Of County Agent work
by the end of this. fiscal year that,
in. the ordinary course Of things,
would have required six years.
This wide and rapid development
is military necessity because Of
war conditions. - We need and must
have a County Agent in every agri-
cultural county in the United States
by the: beginning of next planting
season and that means by February
/, 1918. ~~ ~ 49,
Not all of this stupendous work
can be done by the Department of
Agriculture unless it has the coop
Grafton of the Agricultural Colleges
and the other agencies that are work
ing with it. Nothing must be left
undone to speed up the work of or
ganization in the counties, to get
Agents appointed in the counties
promptly so that they will be on
the ground ready to assist farmers
even before actual planting begins.
For the County Agent is to be-
come the directing genius in the ag-
ricultural industry of the country.
There has rested >on him always a
very great personal responsibility.
There rests upon him now a more
imperative public responsibility that
he must discharge as part of his
duty to his country in time of war.
1t is no small task. It will require
ability of the highest order and ap-
plication Of the closest kind.

Senator Gaiinger of New Hamp-
shire, has introduced in the Senate
a resolution asking that the agri-
cultural committee of that bodv in
vestigate the advisability of admit
ting Chinese labor during the period
of the war. The Senator is thorough
ly alive to the economic danger that
threatens this country unless there
is a large increase of farm labor for
the coming season. In an interview
the Senator is quoted as saying: 81
think we will be in a very serious
fix unless we get farm labor Crops
everywhere are unharvested because
the labor is leaving the farms. Com
plant comes to me, some of it bit
ter, that while the government asks
farmers for increased production the
crops cannot be gathered" The re-
solution does not promise to admit
Chinese as citizens or with view
to their permanent residence her,
but on somewhat the same terms as
American soldiers are sent to France,
under the control of their govern
ment, to be returned when their la
Dor is no longer needed. Tke plan at
least deserves careful thought. the
labor shortage is acute, and does not
promise to be any less so in the fu-
ture. And if the country is to pro-
duce the record crop expected of it
another season, there is no time to
be lost in arranging for an adequate
supply of labor

THE FIRST Interest
lNSTALLMENT

On December Is the first INSTALL
ment of interest on the two billion
dollars of the. first issue of Liberty
Loan Bonds became due. The amount
approximated $35, 100000, being 81. rs
interest on every hundred dollars of
bonds.
Holders of coupon bonds obtain
their interest money from any bank
or post office in the country by SIM
ply presenting their coupons. Hold
ers of registered bonds are sent
checks for their interest by the
Treasury.
Hereafter every six months ten to
fifteen million American citizens are
to receive interest money on their
Liberty Loan Bonds from the United
States Government. This is going to
create a closer and more direct asso-
ciation of these citizens with their
Government, and the effect of this
association is going to be Of great
value to these citizens and of great
value to the Nation in making them
more personally interested in their
Government and more active and
alert in the exercise of their duties
and rights as citizens Every Liberty
Bond holder is going to be an active
champion of wise and economic legis-
lation and administration.
The Liberty Loan is not only a
great financial transaction; tt is 4
great national force, great national
bond between the bondholder and
their country, q great influence for
better government and better citi-
zenship.
