WHAT FARMER THINKS
OF THE COUNTY AGENT.

The states relations service OF
the United States department OF
agriculture has on file thou
sands of letters from farmers
telling of help they have re-
cefved from county agents.
The following is quoted from
a letter written by W. 81. Har-
vey, a farmer OF Long Beach.
CAL:
Farming is no longer a blum
dering job. 1t is growing into a
science. To succeed, organiza-
ton, method, system and scien-
tific knowledge are needed.
These steps are developed and
brought about or made possible
by the right kind Of a county
agent. He is, therefore, a
trained. skilled man in personal
touch with the farmer to help
solve the thousand and one
farm problems as they come up
and has at his beck and call the
scientific men OF this great

to plant small areas to Rocky Ford
seed. The reSult-in 1917 farmers of
this section sold 20 cars of cantaloupes
with gross returns of over $12, 600. Re
ceipts per acre ranged from $50 to
$3.50.
The farmers began to appreciate the
value of their land, started sowing
winter crops. called upon the county
agent concerning silos and began look
ing about for cattle for their farms.
Land that had slow sale at $25 an
acre jumped in two years to S75 an
acre. according to report to the United
States department of agriculture. Not
least important, through the canta-
loupe enterprise the county agent
gained the confidence of the farmers
of the entire county in his work for
better farming.
