DEMONSTRATION WORK WITH FARM BOYS AND GIRLS HOW THE FARMER CAN USE FACILITIES OF THE U. S. DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE FARMERS' COOPERATIVE DEMONSTRATIONS IN NORTHERN AND WESTERN STATES The Bureau of Plant Industry, through its office of farmers' cooperative demonstrations, northern and western states, in cooperation with the state agricultural colleges, is carrying on two lines of demonstration work: (1) With adults through county agricultural agents and farm management demonstrators; and (2) with young people by means of boys' and girls' clubs. Demonstration work with adults has been carried on in the northern and western states for the past three years by means of agents located in an agricultural area, usually the size of a county. There are now 313 of these agents located in as many counties in the northern and western state, and the number is growing as rapidly as funds are available and the men competent for the work can be found. The very diversified nature of the agriculture of the northern and western states necessitates that the agent who may be located within a country thoroughly trained in agriculture. tural press, co- parties consisti study local ag re different section rled on demons of 46 farmers, b 6 demonstrations with an average meeting.

The very diversified nature of the agriculture of the northern and western states necessitates that the agent who may be located within a county thoroughly trained in agriculture. It is required that he be farm-bred, know the science of the subject as well as the field practice, and that he have organizing ability, tact, and common sense in dealing with men. The county agent brings to the individual farmer the results of scientific investigations in agriculture and the experience of successful farmers and helps the farmer to put them into practice on his own farm. The agent's prime mission is to increase efficiency in farming and to secure to the farmer a greater net income at the end of the year, and at the same time maintain the productiveness of the soil, a proper standard of living, and a consequent improvement of rural life. The idea uppermost in this demonstration work is to get as many farmers as possible to undertake some line of agricultural improvement on their own farms and thus learn better agriculture by actually doing it. In taking up work in a county the county agent first finds out what the agriculture of the county really is and what the farmers need, based on an examination of agricultural conditions throughout the county and conferences with the farmers themselves. The agent's training in the science of agriculture along with his local studies enables him to advise with farmers helpfully at the outset on such subjects as spraying, seed selection and treatment, fertilizers, control of insect pests, cultural and stock practices, and other miscellaneous matters, and it is along these lines that he is usually first called upon for assistance in the county. But his greatest usefulness to the county comes from his cooperation with groups of farmers who study their own local agricultural problems and carry out lines of demonstration work that they devise themselves or which the county agent suggests. The county agent also acts as a connecting link between the scientific or research work of the state and nation and the farmer, not only presenting the agricultural area, usually the size of a county.

Through a memorandum of understanding between the secretary of agriculture and the officials of state agricultural colleges, all of the county agents of the department in the Northern and Western states are cooperatively employed with the state agricultural colleges. The agent, therefore, is a joint representative of the state and nation and has back of him the support of these two great institutions in his advisory and demonstration work with the farmers. The county also in which the work is done shares in the expense and control of the work. During the year 267 county agents have been at work. Of this number only 177 were at work at the beginning of the year. Two hundred and sixty-three have reported on the results of their work, as follows: Each agent reporting has visited an average of 290 farmers one or more times on their own farms; has been visited in his office by 331 farmers; has been consulted over the telephone on matters relating to agriculture 617 times and by letter 1,045 times. Added to this each agent on the average has held 75 general farmers meetings, organized 7 associations for the promotion of agriculture along various lines, written 38 timely articles for the agricul- ANAHEIM GAZETTE tural press, conducted 4 observation parties consisting of 70 men each to study local agricultural problems in different sections of the county, carried on demonstrations on the farms of 46 farmers, holding on the average 6 demonstration inspection meetings with an average of 31 farmers at each meeting. Each county agent on the average has secured the selection of seed corn in the fields of 69 farmers and has had planted selected seed on 2,132 acres, resulting in an increased yield as reported by 60 agents of 9.4 bushels per acre due to better seed used or to the better cultural methods suggested by the agent. On the average there were grown under the direction of the agent, 1,010 acres of wheat in each county, with a reported increased average yield from 54 agents of 7 bushels per acre. Each agent induced on the average 26 farmers, growing a total of 429 acres of oats, to treat the seed for smut. The increased yield of oats reported from 48 counties doing demonstration work with oats was 10.6 bushels per acre. With potatoes, 47 agents reported the growing of this crop by 2,448 farmers who treated the seed for scab or used improved cultural methods, getting in return an average increased yield per acre of 26.6 bushels. From 38 counties where results were reported in hay growing, the average increased yield on 140,519 acres was 1.1 tons per acre. Each agent secured on the average 58 farmers in each county, who grew an average of 5.5 acres of alfalfa each. The 263 county agents reporting were instrumental in having the following number of registered stock secured by the farmers in he county: 53 stallions, 748 bulls, 171 rams, and 960 hooves; 5,063 farmers were induced as much as possible of the fresh material, and can the remainder. As with the boys', the girls' club work is coordinated with the school work, and in addition, the girls are taught to prepare and serve the various articles canned in appetizing and attractive ways. With both boys and girls a careful record is kept by each showing the cost of growing the crop, returns, and profit in all lines of the enterprise. At the present time there are 147,546 enrolled in the club work in the 33 northern and western states. In the corn club work 29 boys report yields of over 120 bushels of dry shelled corn per acre, 106 report yields of over 100 bushels per acre, 461 over 80 bushels per acre, and 1,096 over 60 bushels per acre. In sugar beet work 546 boys report an average yield of 20.4 tons, with an average net profit of $37.60 per acre. Under irrigation methods the champion potato grower was produced by Utah, with a yield of 720 bushels per acre, while with humid conditions the highest yield 560 bushels per acre was attained by a Nebraska club boy. In the club work with girls 492 demonstrations in canning, grading and packing, and in the saving of by-products of garden, field and orchard were made during the year, with an attendance of 119,427. In this work one Iowa club member grew 5,318 pounds of vegetables and made a net profit of $115.57 on her club plat. The club work with junlors, like the work with adults, is all carried on in cooperation with the state colleges of agriculture. THE NEW COOPERATIVE LABOR PLAN In a recent address in Chicago, an DESK BOOK FOR TEACHERS The state board of education is making an interesting and unique experiment in the publication of the speller bulletin prepared by Miss Anne Nicholson, textbook assistant of the board, and just issued from the state printing office. This book has not been adopted as the official textbook in spelling for use of the pupils, but is a desk book for the use of the teachers. They will try it out, note results on the blank leaves bound into the book for that purpose, and will report their experience and observations to the board. From the test of actual school use during the coming year, it is believed that suggestions will be received which will make possible the revision of the little book so that it will be one of the most practical and valuable spellers in use in the country. In that event, its formal adoption as the speller of the state series of textbooks will follow. Teachers and laymen will observe with interest that this book is much smaller than the spellers in common use. It contains 3070 words, mile many spellers contain 12,00 to 15,000 words. The list has been compiled from a wide range of material investigated, including the study of many texts and articles on spelling, reviews of lists furnished by teachers of the state, and analysis of the writing vocabularies of a large number of students. Included in this short list are all the words in common use, all the words, in fact, that it is necessary for children to be drilled on. The arrangement of the book and the teaching methods suggested are based on the advice of the best educational authorities of the country and in general, it is believed they will com- 38 counties where results were reported in hay growing, the average increased yield on 140,519 acres was 1.1 tons per acre. Each agent secured on the average 58 farmers in each county, who grew an average of 5.5 acres of alfalfa each. The 263 county agents reporting were instrumental in having the following number of registered stock secured by the farmers in he county: 53 stallions, 748 bulls, 171 rams, and 960 boars; 5,063 farmers were induced to feed live stock, and balanced rations were figured for and adopted on 4,698 farms. The agents assisted in the organization of 378 anithog-cholera clubs which vaccinated 291,501 hogs. In addition, 4,717 silos were put up at the suggestion of the county agents and 110 breeders' associations were organized. During the year 83 cow-testing associations were organized, and through encouraging individual farmers to test their herds 58,718 cows were brought under test. Upon the suggestion of the county agents, 7,224 farmers were induced to make better use of farm and barnyard manure, 1,988 farmers were taught how to home mix 10,341 tons of fertilizer, while 11,552 farmers were induced to use a total of 181,506 tons of lime. Commercial fertilizers were introduced on 4,938 farms, and 42-304 acres of hay, soy beans, cowpeas, and vetch were grown for green manure. Ald in keeping farm accounts was given 2,417 farmers. The agents assisted in organizing 216 purchasing and marketing associations, which did a business amounting to $93,806. These exchanges also served as a medium through which 2,533 farmers were supplied with labor and 276 farms were rented. The organization of 3,436 farms was analyzed with reference to labor income and factors of organization affecting the income by county agents and of 3,715 farms by special farm management demonstrators.

This was the difficult problem which had to be solved before any plan could be truly effective. At the present time a host of men pass annually from northern Mexico into Texas working its way as the season advances, northward to the Dakotas. This army is, however, only a nucleus; it contains less than half of the men required for the harvest. It must therefore be recruited from outside, a more difficult matter than might be imagined for not every man who is in search of work is fitted for the harvest feld.The question of transportation also complicates the situation.Harvest hands are not usually rich in ready cash and what they have are not likely to risk in long journeys in search of opportunities that may not exist. The first step, therefore, is to foresee where and when and how much labor will be wanted.In this crop correspondents of the department can be of great service They are in a better position than the average farmer to estimate prospects in their several localities and the probable need for labor.The farmer himself, however, is being asked to do his part.Under the plan now in force, any employer in need of men can fill out a form. The arrangement of the book and the teaching methods suggested are based on the advice of the best educational authorities of the country and in general, it is believed they will commend themselves to the teachers of the state. One result of the investigation has been to explode the time honored theory that the children of the present cannot spell as well as the children did in good old days of little red school house.Ability is called to discovery if some actual tests made a generation ago.These tests showed that only 40 per cent of the words were spelled correctly.The same test was submitted to a corresponding grade in a present day school,with an average of 51.2 per cent. If this speller is adopted as the state series text,either in its present form or after revision,the state will save all expense ofthe purchaseof rights fromthe authorandroyaltiestopublishers.Theworkhasbeendoneaspartoftheauthor'sdutiesasthetextbookexpertofthestateboard.

Club work in corn growing is one of the leading lines of work with boys. In this work each boy selects his seed corn, tests it, prepares the ground, plants, cultivates, and harvests 1 acre of corn according to the most approved methods. He also usually makes an exhibit at the county and sometimes the state fair of his products. As a member of the Corn Club he meets with other boys for the purpose of study and instruction in corn growing, and as part of his school work writes the story of "How I grow my crop of corn." The idea in this work is to show on actual demonstration plats how the average corn yields of the community can be increased and the cultural processes necessary to that end, and to bring boys at an early age into contact with the best phases of agriculture, so that they may have a better understanding of it and find enjoyment in it. Club work with boys is also carried on in potato growing, hay growing, fruit growing, the raising of poultry, pigs, etc., along similar lines. Frequently the girls take up this work with the boys. The chief work with girls, however, is the Canning Club work. In this work the girls are taught to utilize the wastes of the farm, like surplus fruit and vegetables, by means of canning and preserving. In the canning work the girls are instructed in the best commercial practices and taught to can in tin or glass, using the various kinds of hot water and steam home canning outfits. In the tomato canning club work, and with many other kinds of fruits and vegetables, the girls also grow the crops, market The first step, therefore, is to foresee where and when and how much labor will be wanted. In this the crop correspondents of the department can be of great service. They are in a better position than the average farmer to estimate the prospects in their several localities and the probable need for labor. The farmer himself, however, is being asked to do his part. Under the plan now in force, any employer in need of men can fill out a blank to be obtained at the nearest post office which is forwarded to the local headquarters of the Department of Labor. Among other things the prospectice employer is asked to state on this card whether or not he will advance transportation and if so on what terms he expects to be repaid. Similar cards are provided for men in search of employers. In this way applications for men and applications for jobs are matched against each other. NEWPORT BEACH SEA WALL Plans for the rebuilding of the sea wall along the ocean front at Newport Beach are being rushed to completion. Engineer Kellogg has submitted his report to the board of trustees of that city, recommending a reinforced concrete bulkhead with a pilng foundation. It has been suggested that property owners along the ocean front at East Newport deed the city five feet, so that sidewalks and bulkhead may be set back in order to secure better protection. CHINA BUYS $240,000 TINPLATE IN AMERICA The government of China this week ordered $240,000 worth of tinplate, a total of 70,000 boxes, to be rolled by the American Sheet and Tinplate company. No statement as to the purpose of the order was made, but advice said that China would place other orders here in the near future owing to the great difficulty of securing English or Welsh tin because of the war. SECRETARY DANIELS has announced that the name Cuyamas has been chosen for the naval oil carrying ship No. 5 after the river which flows through the Southern California petroleum district. Plans for the ship are now being prepared. The Cuyamas river flows through the Santa Maria oil fields in the northern part of Santa Barbara county, empyting into the Santa Maria river at the foot of the Cuyamas range of mountains. OLIVE NOTES Other communities may talk of hard times, but, to judge from the building boom going on here, Olive was never in a more prosperous condition than right now. Numerous public and private buildings are under way or just completed. Olive's first brick business block—a splendid garage built for Henry Meyers—is now practically finished. The new packing house contract has been let and will be completed in time to handle Valkncias. There was an addition built to the blacksmith shop last week, while the excavating has been done and material placed on the ground for the new water system here.
