A YEAR AS
 COUNTY AGENT

(From the Windham County Farm CTS Association Newsl
 1T might be cf interest to some of the members 10 know what the coun- ty agent has been doing in the year that he has been in the county.
 During the past year there have been T23 farm visits made and B. 670 bulletins given out from this of- fee; there have been 16O meetings held CT attended with 12,310 people present at these meetings. From the office we have sent out l74 different circulars with a total of A0,250 copies. Articles published in the various pa- pers show total of fifty-iive and we have had TOP office calls and i,I63 telephone calls. This gives an idea of the amount of wcrk that is being done and the methods used in putting across the extension program.
 Different Programs
 The different programs that have been followed have been the poultry program with emphasis on the grow healthy chicks campaign; the dairy program with emphasis on the spray ing methods and better varieties; the crops program with emphasis on al- falfa and clover and pasture improve ment; the vegetble program with em- phasis on pest control and 300-bushel potato clubs; and the farm manage ment program with particular em- phasis en the size of business. The Young Farmers Club included in the farm management program.
 It is rather early yet to measure the results gained through the ex- tension program and generally at an- nual meeting we have more definite information to report than at this time of the year.

WALcoTT Vs. BINGHAM
Do Not Agree on Patronage and
 Census

Senator Frederic Walcott was one of the seven New England Senators who voted against an amendment to the census bin which would place the workers of the coming 1880 census under civil service rules when that amendment was passed by a 42 to 37 vote.
 Senator Bingham was paired with Senator Glass of Virginia and did not vote on the amendment.
 The amendment would provide that the 100, GOO odd field and office work CTS who will conduct the 1920 nation al census would be appointed by the director of the census under civil ser vice rules.
 1t is believed that even though the amendment pass with the bill and be sent to the House, the House will kill 1t, as Representatives are practically unanimous in their desire to have census workers appointed through patronage.
