SEVERAL COUNTIES ] NOW WANT AGENTS
Rlount, Greene and Marion Have Been Without Lead
 CTS for Over a Year

 The Greene county board of reNe rue made an appropriation of sl,20O which will be supplemented by state and federal funds, and in making tfis appropriation the members or the board, the Eutaw Chamber of Commerce and. the farmers of the county requested District Agent w.. O.

MT Ninston--fs now in search of a man to meet these requirements, but before an agent is employed he must first meet the members of the board of revenue. representative of the Eu taw Chamber of Commerce and peo- pie of the county, who will be re- quested to express their approval.
 While the Greene county board of revenue was making an appropria ton of s1,2e0 the Marion county board of revenue appropriated ran equal amount, and the Blount county board appropriated s100, and both of these counties requested county agents with the qualifications out lined by the peopel of Greene county. District Agent I. T. Quinn will se- leot man for each of these two counties. and they will in turn ap- prove or disapprove the selection.
 The fact that three Alabama coun- ties made appropriations for coun- ty agent in one week is sufficient to indicate the important results being accomplished by different county agents, and by employing trained az ricultural leaders to assist them with their soil buildingf live stock, mar keting and other big agricultural problems the boards of revenue of BIount. Marion and Greene counties have each taken a big step which should be far-reaching for good.
