County agents 



Ten counties have met in conferences and have appointed local repre- 

 sentatives to act as agents for their respective counties. These county 

 agents assist in arranging for various extension enterprises for the 

 county, by way of giving advice to the local people and counsel to the 

 College. The county agent affords a means of bringing the needs of the 

 county to the attention of the College and of bringing the College into 

 closer relationship with the people. An example of the work done by 

 one of these county agents since June 7, 1912, is given below:
