been telling you some of the ways in
which conceive those insistent de-

to say again that there Is neither magic
nor cure-all in any of this Hard
necessity drives us now. The mandate
is clear and peremptory. These are
the things We must do.
We are engaged in a national enter
prise. There are no sacred highly
privileged special interests which We
are pledging ourselves to protect. There
is no panacea for our economic ills
There are, however, methods to be tried
for attaining genuine concert of in

with the help of all Of you we shall

times over the cost?
Briefly, the work of the extension
service in the county includes the coun-
ty agricultural work covering soils, ag-
riculture and horticultural crops. in
Guiding tree fruit and truck crops
dairy, poultry and other livestock. with
all of the diseases and insect pests in
Testing any or all of them. Boys club
work including definite instructions to
the groups along agricultural lines as
well as the development along lines of
rural leadership. Agriculture is funda-
mental to American life and cannot re-
main in it's present position, and our
young people can use the extension
service in developing life aims.
The home demonstration work in
cludes work on clothing, home furnish
ings, and nutrition, with the many
problems Of made-over clothing, recov-
ering Of furniture and floors and the
making Of many new pieces of fur
nishings for the home in keeping with
the income, and the many nutritional
problems developed through radical
change in the food habits of the peo-
pie of this country in the last twenty
five to forty years. Girls club work
with it's many varied interests in all
of the above lines along with the health
program for both girls and boys as
regular part of this work, with the
broaded aspects given above are all
important.
This work is all carried to people
of the country through personal calls
on the agents for assistance, visits to
farms and homes to answer questions
and to help in solving problems which
have been brought up as general prob
lens in the community through meet
ings held by the agent alone or with
the assistance of. the specialists, the
latter who are devoting their time to
keeping in close touch with the new
er developments that seem to be prac-
tical for our rural communities.
Is not the above program on the
basis of investment made as indicated
in this article, one which should be
maintained by an agricultural COM
munity, to further agricultural and
home development?

OF Interest To Farmers.
BY County Agent E. G. Durdle

vice to himself and will then realize
how little of his tax money goes to-
| ward the maintaining of the extension
service as represented by the county
agricultural agent and the club and
home demonstration agent. We would
like to raise the question at this time
as to whether farm population In an
almost entirely agricultural county is
not entitled to the expenditure Of this
amount for a program to assist them
In developing better program from
year to year and keeping abreast of
the times. Should not this amount be
returned to the farmer through indirect
results even though he did not contact
the service personally?
AS far as federal monies is concerned,
let us again look at the actual facts.
Undoubtedly the average person seeing
the sums expended by the United
States Department of Agriculture,
namely, three hundred and thirteen
million dollars for the fiscal year end
ing June 0, 1881, feels that large part
of this expenditure is for very definite
agricultural purposes. Facts show that
fifty-tWo per cent of this money goes
to the bureau of public roads for fed
eral highways. The large part of the
balance goes into channels which the
average farmer probably would feel
was not directly benefiting him. The
entire extension appropriation out of
this three hundred and thirteen mil
lion dollars, amounts to but 8 IS per
cent of the three hundred and thirteen
million dollars, or approximately ten
million dollars. Ten million may look
like lot of money, and it is until
spread out over the entire United
States, but it is easy to see that it is
but a very small item in the total
tax which goes into the Federal funds
and again we ask whether farmer in
an agricultural county is not entitled
to at least this part. of the money
spent by the federal Department of
Agriculture.
The point that we wish to make is
this, that it is not the tax money which
goes to support the extension work
which is making the burden. Further
more, it would seem that agriculture,
if it is going to progress with other
industries, must not only maintain it's
present percentage of tax monies, but
ii anything, should be entitled to
larger percentage considering the size
OF the industry Will the amount saved
by any individual farmer, if the entire
extension program in the county were
eliminated, help in any way to assist
the farmer in the adjustment of his
business? Should not the investment of
this amount through an extension SER
vice and program bring; returns many

Durdle Explains Value
of Extension Work

There recently has come to our at
IGNITION questioning on the part OF
farmers and occasionally, business men,
as to the continuation Of the extension
program as carried on In. the county
through the county agricultural agent
and the county club leader and home
demonstration agent. In the little dis
cussion which we have had either dir
ectly or indirectly on, this point, the
question that has always been raised
has been the one Of expense Of the
work rather than the one Of criticism
of the work from the standpoint of
results being secured. We want, at this
time, to give some facts in regard to
the costs Of the extension program, as
carried on by the above workers, to
individuals of the county.
In, the first place let us keep in
mind that forty-f1ve per cent of the
taxes Of the county are paid by bust
ness utilities such as power companies,
railroads, etc. We think. we can say
without fear Of successful contradic-
ton that these people are solidly be-
hind the extension program as they
not only work with the existing agents
! but have gone out and hired their own
agents to assist further in an extern
sion program. About nineteen per cent
of the taxes Of the county are paid
by people within the cities and, towns
Of the county. the remaining thirty
six per cent being paid by the farmers.
In other words, the farmer pays trifle
over one-third and the business man
about one-fifth of the expense for the
work, almost one-half being borne by
the public utilities.
Last. year the question of just what
the entire service, as far as the county
budget was concerned, was costing the
individual farmer, was carefully gone
into 1t is little difficult, without TAX
ing the, individual cases, to indicate
just what the cost is to the individual.
The nearest we can get at this cost
in generalized statement, was given
to us by the treasurers Office last year,
when we were advised that the cost
to the individual farmer of the county
is about: forty three cents per thousand
dollars in taxable valuation on which
he pays taxes. Another general state
ment which is not quite so correct,
and here the variation will be wider, is
that. the. cost to the farmer is approx
mately twenty-seyen; cents for each
hundred dollars assessed in. taxes. i'm

These counties saved the party but
were unable to stem the Bone tide.
In fact they aided it under the idea
that Bone was their friend because
he advocates municipal ownership, and
preached the doctrine that industry

private enterprises and turned over to
the politicians to operate.
