REPORT ON RADIO
BY FARM AGENTS

A Farm Bureau bulletin recently
received by County Agent Joe Will
son, concerning the use of radio on
farms, is as follows:
In response to circular inquiry
which this department sent out last
spring 1920 replies were received
from county agents with reference
to their use of the radio in extern
sion work. Thsee have been as
sembled and tabulated by J. c.
Gilbert, of the Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics, Interested in radio
work. 1t appears that out of this
number reporting, SO county agents
have radio receiving sets; 488
more have access to radio receiving
sets, while 588 reported that they
had no access to radio receiving
sets. Of those having radio re-
ceiving sets or having access to
such sets over 80 per cent were
able to get satisfactorily the market
and weather reports of this depart
ment.
Seven hundred and eighty county
agents, who made an estimate as to
the number of radio receiving sets
owned by farmers in their respec-
tive counties, reported a total of
39,869. If this ratio holds good
throughout the country it would
appear That about 145,000 farm
families have awaited themselves of
this means of keeping in touch with
the outside world. Seven hundred
and fifteen of the agents reported
that they believed the radio re-
ceiving set has now reached such
stage of perfection that farmers
could quite generally find a sub
/, stantial source of satisfaction
through this means of keeping in
touch with the world; 221 agents
were doubtful as to this while 264
made no reply.
From the Departments stand
point / would say that we are regu-
larly furnishing market news and
weather service to all sections of
the country. We are also furnish

capable of receiving messages over
very substantial distances.
We are inclined to believe, there
fore, that a reasonable extension of
radio receiving sets in rural dis
tricts may properly be encouraged
by extension forces. Any move
ment Of this kind probably should
be through the encouragement of our
own extension staffs at the colleges
to own instruments. We will then
be in a position to put in such sets.
The county agents will then be in
position, based on their experience,
to encourage project leaders to put
in sets and thus the radio will gradu-
ally be extended until there will be
farmers in practically every COM
munity who will regularly be re-
ceiving market news, weather SER
vice and other information from the
colleges and this Department
which has a bearing on agriculture
and rural life, and in addition will
be getting from the radio vast
amount of satisfaction and enter
tainment for the farm family from
commercial and private sources.
The above information, giving
out the essential facts of the re-
plies from the county agents, is
placed in your hands for whatever
consideration you may care to give
it. Possibly your county agents
would be interested in it.
Yours very truly,
