County Agents have Won Per-
manent Place in Rural
Development

After ten wears of experimentation development under
the direction of Department of Agriculture county agent
work has proved itself indispensable factor in agricultural
communities in the Northern and Western states 1t has awak
ened farmers instincts and is helping him to
stand on an equality with other business interests 1t has
brougtabout reorganization of social conditions in rura
districts which makes country living satisfactory and
has brought to the country boy and girl respect for the
farm and new and better vision of country life
The specific activities of county agents in Northern and
Western states with respect to soil fertility crops fruit live
stock, farm management boys and girls clubs farm home
problems fully and Interestingly described in Depart
men Circular 49, which be had application to the De-
partment of Agriculture.
History of County Agent,
The circular also gives brief history of the county agent
work from its inception in 1911 in Broome county Newly ork
BY the end of June 1913 about hundred of the agents
work in 10 states The passage of the Agricultural Tx
Act in May 1914 and later the food production
gency of the World War; led to the rapid expansion of the
county agent force which numbers 166 agents in the
1000 agricultural counties of 33 Northern and Western states
Iowa and Minnesota the only states which have complete
quota of agents
It is interesting to note that the early efforts of county
agents poorly received by county communities and in
very openly resented by farmers The changed
attitude of agricultural communities in regard to the county
agent is of the notable rumphs of the work and is
the hest possible proof of its value and necessity.
Helps the Farmer Help Himself.
The county agents first duty is to help the farmer help
himself One of the outstanding developments in connection
with the county agent work has been the increased emphasis
placed the appointment of community project leaders and
through them the development of programs and extension
work in agriculture and home economics.
The aid Of extension experts from state colleges of agrcu
ture and the United States Department of Agriculture FIRE
quenty sought since farmers insisting high standard
of qualifications in those from whom they expect learn
and better methods of farming.
The circular gives tables and figures in connection
with its story of the county agent work in the Northern and
Western states

WILL THERE BE A STRIKE?

The Enterprise is of the opinion that there will be no
general railroad strike but in the event there is strike It
will be of short duration. The railroad men nave 700
much to lose in the event they strike. Various divisions
Of the railroad workers have already announced they will
not go strike We base our prediction on the the tact
that railroad are eveled headed men, among e oeS
railroad men now out Of work. many of whom have not
worked at their occupation since the unauthorized strike
Of 1920 Many of these men would be willing to take the
strikers places it is stated If the railroad men went on
strike they would likely lose their seniority IN $ery f
fact that thew would not have the public sympathy in the
event of strike.
In every large city of the United States there are thou
sands of men out of employment who would be willing
to take up railroad work the strike went into e1tect

BOGALUSA MEN ARE
HELD FOR KILLING

No details have been received in
Bogalusa further than newspaper ac-
counts relative to the charges against
o. G.. Mole and his brother, George,
who are being held at Harrisburg,
La, on the charge of killing a man.
Both deny the crime and state that
they purchased a houseboat from the
man whose body was found, they
claiming that the man sold them the
boat and had started back to his
home. The Mole brothers were ar
rested at Plaquemine and taken to
Harrisonburg. A message to Deputy
Sheriff Wommack, Of that parish, for
particulars has not been received by
the Enterprise.
o. c. Mole is well known to the
citizens of Bogalusa and especially
the north side and the terrace. He
was one of the oId-time printers and
was employed as a straight matter
Compositor on the Enterprise before
a linotype was installed. He was
always considered a harmless man,
but of very nervous temperament.
George Mole recently conducted a
secondhand furniture store in Rich
ardsontown and came here from Mis-
sissippi. They left here about a
month ago.

FALSE ALARMS KEEP THE
FIRE DEPARTMENT BUSY

The Bogalusa Fire Department
was royalty entertained Wednesday
night by two false alarms, and Meth
er of the culprits who caused the I'M
necessary trips have been caught.
Shortly before 10 o'clock an alarm
was turned in from the box at the
corner of Huron avenue and Shenan-
doah street and although twenty cars
headed by the two fire trucks paraded
up and down Huron avenue no fire
could be found.
Thirty n1inuteslate another alarm
was TUNED in from Richardsontown
and upon reaching the box it was
found that this too had been false
alarm.
Thoughtless boys and girls should
be told of the risk and expense en-
tailed every time the heavy trucks
are brought out on the streets and
while so far Bogalusa has been for
tunate in not having any serious ac-
cidents occur while the trucks are on
the streets the danger is always pres
ent and the firemen who literally
take their lives in their hands every
time they rush out of the station and
down the streets at a breakneck pace
necessary at all times to reach the
scene of a fire, should be considered
whenever the mischievous idea enters
the head Of some idl crowd of boys
to turn in an alarm.
