II ~ vice workers of the state OF
Montana annual reports for the
year 1928 were filed which give in
detail the great story of the extern
sion work that is bringing Mon
tana into notice for her work with
farmers and farm women. This
meeting in Bozeman was the ninth
annual conference and brought to
the extension headquarters, "a
county agricultural agents, five
home demonstration agents. two
club leaders, six specialists and the
four state leaders. Director F. S.
Cooley of the extension service pre-
sided at the opening meeting and
discussed the unsolved problems of
extension work.
A total of 37o communities or
ganized for extension work; 1868
men and women serving as volun-
tary local leaders; $1,000 farmers
and farm women who have wit
messed extension demonstrations
almost 10000 Montana farms per-
sonally visited by extension
agents; 918 boys and girls who at
tended the 1923 recreational and
educational camps; 1874 farm
homes represented in boys and
girls club work-this Is a brief
summary of the high points of ex-
tension work reports for 1928.
Reputation for Quality

the reputation as the best producer

ed their work at community, coun-
ty and state fairs and in many in
stances won first prizes away from
their adult competitors.
Boys and Girls Club Work
Club work is handled by projects
each boy or girl signing up to
handle definite project work. A
boy will sign up to plant and care
for an acre of corn under proper
to raise a pig to the
market stage, to handle certain
area of garden, or to feed and raise
a lamb, colt or calf. This work
has found such favor that bankers
of the state commonly loan thou
sands of dollars each year to club
members who wish to start bust
ness for themselves"
Girls in club work do canning
clothing making, bread making,
and similar work. At the end of
the club year there are achieve
ment day programs where the re-
suits of the year are summed up.
During the year there were 10
club camps where 918 boys and
girls from the farm had a week of

MAKES THE DEAF HEAR
Remarkable Invention Enables the
Deaf to Hear All Sounds Clearly

Everyone who is troubled with
deafness in any form will be inter-
ested in the announcement of the
Dictograph Products Corporation,
Suite 402A, Sharp Building, Kansas
City, Mo-, that they have at last per-
fected a device which will enable
every one whose auditory nerve is
not entirely destroyed to hear as per-
fectly as one whose hearing is nor
NAL To test it thoroughly they sent
it to a number of people who had
been deaf for years and they report
most gratifying results. Many state
that they hear the slightest sound
with perfect ease. and that their nat
ural hearing has been greatly i'm
proved. The manufacturers are so
proud of their achievement and so
confident that every deaf person will
be amazed and delighted with it, that
they offer to send it to anyone by
prepaid parcel post on ten days free
trial. They do not ship c. o. D., nor
do they require any deposit, but send
it entirely at their own risk and ex-
pense, allowing the user ten full
days to try it and decide whether
they want to keep it or not. AS there
is no obligation whatever, everyone
who is troubled with deafness in any
form should take advantage of this
liberal free trial offer. Just send
them your name and address for des-
criptive literature and free trial re-
quest blank.-Adv.

treatment is believed to be the most
effectual method of stopping wheat
rust, and this treatment was in
troduced by extension people. Ex-
tension specialists gave the treat
ment before county extension
agents and the county agents in
turn demonstrated it to farmers.
More than five tons of copper car
Donate dust was used in Montana
in 1928 to fight wheat smut, with
a resulting saving of thousands of
dollars.
Livestock Work
There was important livestock
work. On II tours some o48 Mon
tana farmers visited 100 famous
livestock farms and heard the ex-
periences of these successful live
stock growers. Extension work
ers circulated hundreds of letters
and circulars urging better live
stock sires, held meetings to in
crease interest in better livestock,
and gave many demonstrations.
The demonstrations in wool grad
ing in various places in Montana
gave scores of Montana woolgrow-
ers their first knowledge of the
methods used by professional

of high quality small grains in
North America, and most of this
reputation has been built in coun-
ties which employed county extern
sion agricultural agents. Practi-
cally the entire work of producing
high quality grains and grasses has
been the outgrowth of work of ex-
tension people cooperating with
farmers; the state exhibits at in
ternational shows have been ga
thered and handled by extension
people; most of the state exhibits
from "a counties have been gather
ed by county agents.
The increase of favor for corn
as Montana crop has been an
other big feather in the caps of the
county agents. In the past year
the acreage of corn has doubled in
counties employing county agents,
although there was little if any
gain in counties that did not en-
ploy county agents. In one county
alone, Richland county, the 1922
acreage was an increase of 400 per
cent over the 1921 acreage, with
further increase in 1923. In
crease in corn acreage has come at
a time when wheat was losing ia
vor because of market conditions,
and it gave the Montana farm an
immediate increase in hogs, dairy
cattle and other livestock. The
benefit of the increase of corn
acreage has meant untold addi-
tional wealth on the Montana farm.
Crop Standardization
Figures in the annual reports for
1928 give many points of more
than common interest. The report
on crop work alone is worthy of a
separate story. Crop standardized
ton has been an important work

conveniences. Other farmers OF
the county or community were able
to visit this farm often to see the
results of ideas recommended by
extension people, and to gather the
practical hints that would increase
their own poultry profits.
Poultry Cu1ling
There were poultry culling dem
onstrations where 1869 birds were
examined, and 2,457 discarded as
Improbable egg-layers. Hundreds
of farmers and farm women wit
messed these demonstration and
learned how to Gull the unprofit-
able birds from their own flocks.
The farm people of Montana be-
lieve in recreation, and they have
as keen interest in the movies as
have the town people. During
1928 the extension agents held 239
meetings at which motion pictures
were shown, the meetings being at
tended by 19,482 people. The pic
lures are shown upon a portable
machine run by power from the
county agents car, with almost any
white wall, side of a building, or
hastily erected canvas as a screen.
This record shows an average of
some 100 farm people for each
movie show. The shows usually
consisted of a reel of travel or
scenic pictures, couple of reels
of farm information pictures and
reel of comics or juveniles for the
children.
Throughout the state in 1923
there were 1,214 farm homes repre-
scented in club work. These boys
and girls from the farms exhibit

County extension work got its
start in the boil weevil troubles of
1911 in the south, where farmers
called in college trained specialists
to help them in combating the in
sect spread.
The idea became fixed in the
south and spread to other states,
New York being one of the first
states to install county agricultural
agents on a definite system. In
1913 the Smith-Lever law was
passed and went into operation in
1914. Since that time extension
work has spread fast throughout
the country until now there are in
the neighborhood of 1000 county
agents employed.
County extension work is sup
ported by funds from the county,
state and federal governments,

Learn How to Play

Then there were meetings anC
camps where the mothers of the
farm gathered for rest and recrea-
ton. At some of these camps wom-
en- said that they were "once more
learning how to play" From an
other camp these farm women re-
ported that they were ''going back
to the farms with new and better
appreciation of the life on the farm
and with a greater sense of service
to their community and state"

In Montana in 1928 there were

agents, five employing home dem
onstration agents and two employ
ing club agents. To direct this big
county work there are seven spe-
cialists who are sent out from the
Bozeman headquarters office to
help county agents and to help or
