"COUNTY AGRICULTURAL AGENTS
A MILITARY NECESSITY-"

| EXTRACTS from address of Assistant
Secretary of Agriculture Carl Vroo.
man at Chicago, Nov. 20, 1879
| The Federal 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
a military necessity because of war
conditions: We need and must have
county agent in every agricultural
county in the United States by the
beginning of next planting season and
that means by Feb. /, 1918.
Not all of this stupendous work can
be done by the Department of Aeri-
culture unless it has the cooperation
OF the agricultural colleges and the
other agencies that are working with
1t. Nothing must be left undone to
speed up the work of organization 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 become
the directing genius in the agricul.
tural industry of the country. There
has rested on him always a very great
personal responsibility. There rests
upon him now more imperative pub
lie responsibility that he must dis.
charge as part of his duty to his
country in time of war. It is no small
task. It will require ability Of the
highest order and application of the
closest kind.

COUNTY AoGNT MOVEMENT m

Public Safety Commission uraes
Boards o. County Commissioners to
IssApproprlate $1,000 per Year for
~ County Agricultural Agent Work.
the .aetion to place an agricultural
agent in every agricultural county, as
urged by the Federal Government, is
being reinforced by the Minnesota
lCommission of Public Safety. Recent
~ the following letter was addressed
fsto all Boards of County Commissioners
in Minnesota:
TO the County Commissioners:
Dear Sir: February /, 1918, has
been fixed as date by which the Fed
eral Government urges as an emer-
gency measure under the Food Pro-
duction Act the placing of an agricul.
tural agent in every agricultural coun-
ty in the United States.
To the Agricultural Extension Divi-
sion of the University Of Minnesota,
the obligation has been delegated to
assist counties in Minnesota in per.
fecting plans for organization and in
supervising the movement when estab-
lished. We are advised that the gen.
| eral plan agreed upon and employed
| in Minnesota in starting the work in
county is substantially as follows:
That Boards of County Commissioners,
who are authorized by state law to ap-
| propriate $1,000 year to this move
ment, are being asked to give assur-
ance that such appropriation will be
made when specified number~of in
terested persons have associated them
selves into an organization to assist in
planning and directing the county
agent work, and have raised certain
funds to better finance the movement.
In view of the extreme need for in
creased production during the coming
year and the development of better
facilities for the distribution and mar
keting of farm products, which are
specified among the purposes of the
measure proposed, the Minnesota
Commission of Public Safety emphat.
ically indorses and urges the plan for
providing for an agent in each county
and earnestly hopes that the Board
of County Commissioners in every
agricultural county in Minnesota will
cooperate according to the plans
which have been above outlined.
This letter is being sent to each
commissioner, and we trust you will
take it up at your next meeting.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) H. w. LIBBY,
Secretary.

There have been no other deaths for

There have been no other deaths for
more than week.
The general health of the men is far
above the average. The weekly report
from all national army divisions re-
ceived by Lieut.-Col. J. r. Shook, divi-
sion surgeon from Washington, show
the division to be among those with
the least diseases.
The big barracks buildings have
withstood the test of severe cold
weather and the heating arrangements
in practically all buildings have proved
satisfactory in every way.
On Jan. l, general court martials for
practically all regiments will convene
to take up any cases which may be
brought before them.
They comprise the second group of
general court martials which have
been appointed. The first were ap-
pointed Sept. 18th, and have served
since.
Practically every taxicab and auto
mobile and, in several instances, large
busses, were engaged to take the SOL
diers to their homes for the holidays.
Many of these started on trips of more
than 800 miles.
Drastic measures have been taken
by military officials cooperating with
state and city officials in Des Moines
to protect soldiers of the eighty-eighth
division of the National Army here
against social diseases. -
To eliminate this evil, termed by
Secretary of War Baker as "the great
est menace to the military forces of
the country" a policy which compre-
hends the confinement of men and
women found to be suffering from ven
ereal diseases for such periods as may
be necessary to complete a cure or for
the period of the war if it is found
necessary, has been decided upon fol-
lowing a conference between Co.. J.
P. HarbesOn, commanding the military
police, Dr. G.. l.. Sumner, secretary of
the state board of health, DR.. H. L.
Saylor, Des Moines city health officer,
and medical officers from the eighty.
eighth division.
Already twenty women found to be
suffering from social diseases after
being picked up the police on the
streets in Des Moines have been con.
fined in hospital at Des Moines
where they will be treated.
Thus far no men have been interned
but the policy extends to cases in men
as we'll.
The Des Moines city council soon
will vote on an ordinance making such
confinement mandatory and plans now
are being formulated for the construc-
tion of hospital where all patients
will be segregated. The windows and
doors of this institution will be barred
and guards will be placed to prevent
those placed therein for treatment
from escaping.
To date less than 1000 cases of
venereal diseases have been admitted
to the base hospital here. OF these,
approximately three-fourths were con-
tracted by soldiers before entering the
service. OF the other one fourth, nine
ty per cent of the cases were contract
ed in Des Moines, medical officers say.
This is considered an especially low
number of cases considering the total
number of men who have been in
training with the division and is far
above the average of posts of similar
size which have been maintained in
the past.
