was laid out, prizes for which were awarded during Farmers' Week. In 

 connection with these different lines of activity, a heavy correspondence 

 has been developed. 



Recom mendations. 



The writer beheves that the keynote of the work lies in more personal 

 contact with people who want practical information, and the development 

 of a system which will handle the details in furthering such an end. 

 The writer therefore recommends that his work draw more heavily on 

 stenographic assistance and such departmental aid as is necessary to get 

 satisfactory information on the technical questions. The promotion of 

 the work must call definitely for all or part of the time of some person 

 in each one of the departments connected with extension work, that the 

 proper attention may be given to the problems in the field. These per- 

 sons, while remaining under the direction of their own departmental 

 heads, would confer with the Extension Office and with other persons 

 doing a similar work in their respective departments. This would result 

 in general extension conferences for the purpose of caucusing opinion 

 and systematizing efforts in the field.
