other organizations. Miss Alice L. Peck, Miss Nancy McNeal, and Mrs. 

 Alice V. Crandall are giving full time to this organization and to super- 

 vision of this undertaking among the boys and girls of the State by 

 means of junior home projects. 



Last summer the Farm Cadet Bureau of the Military Training Com- 

 mission established several boys' camps in agricultural districts throughout 

 the State. City boys from sixteen to twenty years of age were hired out 

 to the farmers in the locality, and formed a very valuable asset to the 

 labor supply of the region. Professor George A. Works spent considerable 

 time between June i and September 30 in inaugurating and supervising 

 these camp communities. 



The. chief emergency work of Professor George F. Warren and the 

 staff of the Department of Farm Management has been the tabulation 

 of the state agricultural census. Much of Professor Warren's time has 

 been spent in giving information to various food authorities and investi- 

 gators. 



The war work of the Department of Home Economics is described in 

 the report of that department.
