ing the approval of the farmers and
is resulting in large amount OF
soil saving work on the part of the
farmers who have attended these
demonstrations.
Every one of the answers receiv-
ed expressed the opinion that soil
erosion was an important work in
this county. There was equally
unanimous opinion that the methods
demonstrated were successful in
practice. However, one or two ex-
pressed the qualification that the
dams require some attention after
being built, If they are entirely eff
fective
There have been two distinct
types of dams used, woven wire, and
brush OF those covered by the re-
port four were brush dams one was
woven wire and eleven were combi-
nation dams of both of these mater
ials. In answer to the question as
to whether the demonstration dams
had been successful in holding the
dirt, many different answers were
received One answered that the
wire obstruction was full but had
been washed out this fall, but that
the brush dam had held and was full
to the top. Other typical answers
were, eyes, the woven wire was full
to the top" THE brush dam held
the dirt but there has not been
enough rain to fill the woven wire"
Seven answered the question Eyes"
In reply to the question: "Do you
think they will continue to hold the
dirkD cnrna NJ tho opouarS uara. GsTt
looks as though they will hold long
time" Woven wire will" I think
so, but they will have to be watched
for they are liable to need little
patching at times" Others agreed
that they need attention when they
begin to weaken.
The QUESTIONABLE further showed
that much work was done by the
farmers as a result OF the demon
strations. Many report that they
had built several themselves and
that they are all full and some re-
ported that one or more of their
neighbors had put distractions on
their farms. MAIDS Walter appears
to have done the most work, for he
reported twenty-five, all filled to
the top. There were several others
who reported that they had built six
or more since the demonstrations
were held.
There were two dairEfeeding
management schools to teach how to
balance ration for livestock, and in
structions on livestock management.
Four farm management short
courses to teach the farmer a sim
nile method of keeping a record OF
his transactions and to analyze his
business; five short courses and
twelve meetings of the federation.
Altogether there were 1872 meetings
attended by 14,037 people. There
were 2341 calls at the farm bureau
office for information.

ASSuuluB LudL THESE IlOChS are
only the average egg production
farm flocks of Audubon county. 80
per cent of the birds are unprofita-
BILE birds. The 1854 culls laid only
1871 eggs in the fourteen days and
when they were removed the per-
centage of the egg production of the
hens was raised from $50 to
33M%.
Another conclusion which the fig
ures prove is that these low produc-
ing birds may be picked from the
flocks. 1t is a common custom for
a farmer to sell off a number of the
old hens and market them, which
will enable him to increase his egg
production.
One of the purposes of these dem
constructions is to enable the farmer
to pick out the 32% of non-profita-
Bile hens and market them, which
will enable him 20 increase his egg
production as time goes on.
While we do not have any fig
ures on the work done by farmers
who attended these demonstrations
and went home and culled their
own flocks, yet we have had them
give us reports which are equally as
good as the above figures.
There were IA demonstrations on
soil erosion attended by 272 farm
ers. At these demonstrations farm
ers were shown the principles of
building dams, by actual installation
by the demonstration. Not only were
they shown the way to put in dams
which would hold, but also they
heard good talks on the control of
soil erosion before the water reaches
the bitches.
Some two months ago the bureau
office sent out questionnaires to the
IA farmers who had demonstrations
on their places this past year and to
13 who had the demonstrations last
year. The answers to the question
