Relation of the County Agent to the
People.

The above subject is discussed in
the Weekly News Letter of August
81, by DIR. A. G.. True, director of
the States Relation Service. DR..
True's definition of county agent is
worth while pasting in your hat.
Here it is:
"a county agricultural agent is a
public official whose business it is to
make available in practical form the
knowledge of agricultural science as
developed by the state experiment
stations, the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture and the results
of the best farm practice. He is ex-
pected to show by field demonstra-
tons, publications and otherwise the
application of such knowledge to To-
cal farm conditions"

WORK HAS BEGUN
ON THE NEW HOTEL
Contractors and Workmen Are
On the Ground

If indications mean anything
Aberdeen is soon to have one oi
the most commodious and modern
hotel buildings in the state. Exca.
vations preparatory to laying
foundations for the erection of a
sixty-room hotel structure on the
old Gordon house lot, corner oi
Commerce and Maple streets, Were
begun Monday and the work will
be pushed steadily to completion.
Contractors and workmen are on
the ground, and material will ar
rive in time to keep carpenters and
masons busy without cessation
until the hotel is finished.
The building, as disclosed by
the blue prints. will have a 'front.'
age of ninety feet on Commerce
street with the lobby and hotel con-
venient appurtenances on the
ground floor. The basement will
be constructed for accommodation
of a laundry. furnace, etc.
The second story will contain
guest chambers and parlors. all of
which will be splendidly ventilated.
Nearly every guest room will be
provided with a bath and other
conYeniences.
When the building has been
completed and put in operation un-
der competent supervision, it can
no longer be said that Aberdeen is
without adequate hotel facilities.
1t will no longer be true. for our
town will be fully abreast along
that line with any city in the state.

THE COUNTY AGENT
INCOME PRODUCER
Profit or Saving Comes Through
Cooperative Buying

The money value of a county
agent to his county is forcibly il.
lustrated in the report of J. w
Willis, head of farm demonstra.
ton agents for Mississippi. Ex-
elusive of the credit due the county
agents for improvement in live
stock and dairying. for controlling
diseases and insect pests of plants
and animals, or for broadening the
views of farm people on communi-
tY development, sanitation and ed
ucation, on only two items of work
the Mississippi county agents re-
turned to their farmers a clear
profit of nearly two and a quarter
million dollars.
More than half of this profit or
saving came through cooperative
buying of feeds, fertilizer, breeding
stock and other items the farmers
needed and the cooperative selling
of farm products. The other part
of the profit was made ON the de-
monstration fields worked accord
ing to the instructions of county
agents and represented a clear gain
on .756 acres of 81, I,O5S.771, oyer
the Yields on the other felds work
ed by old methods.
During the two years covered by
this report, an average of sixty
agents were employed in the state.
Estimating their average salary at
So, 900 a year their cost amounted
to S360.000. against a profit on
two items of S2,215 $50. Any
county that thinks in terms of the
cost of county agent should re-
verse its ideas and consider him as
a source of income.-Progressive
