rye and Sudan grass in the mountain part of my terri- 

 tory. I started this year a number of plots of alfalfa, 

 which are doing well at the present time. I have also 

 been influential in building a number of bams, cow 

 sheds, cribs, poultry and hog houses. 



With what has been done it only has seemed to open 

 up the field to greater responsibilities and greater im- 

 provements. I am working now to the end where I can 

 see my territory all organized into farmers' clubs, each 

 club having representatives, which will come to Berea, 

 the center of my territory, and there organize a central 

 organization — each one of these rural clubs having a 

 phone so as to be in connection with the central organi- 

 zation. 



I am convinced that such an organized territory and 

 such telephone system will bring about better rural 

 conditions and better citizens of our Commonwealth.
