making poor growth. I am expecting better results from 

 the sweet clover the second year, since it is a biennial. 



Some plots of red clover have been inoculated this 

 season. Many more fields of cowpeas have been seeded 

 this season than ever before. Other summer legumes, 

 soy beans, peanuts, etc., have been planted only spar- 

 ingly, but have been successfully grown. 



A few good poultry houses have been built. 



One pure bred Hereford bull has been brought into 

 the county. Several pure bred boars have been intro- 

 duced. One activity of the farmers' clubs which I am 

 encouraging is the co-operative ownership of pure bred 

 sires.

WOODFORD COUNTY. 



Since coming to the county, I have treated 4,500 

 hogs with anti-hog cholera serum, and turned half that 

 many more to the veterinarians of the county. Fifteen 

 men have been taught how to use the serum themselves. 

 Sixteen meetings have been held to educate farmers in 

 the use of sanitation and serum to control this disease. 



Eighteen demonstrations have been made with 

 growing alfalfa; twelve with crimson clover; thirty- 

 eight with other crops. Forty orchards have been in- 

 spected, and demonstrations have been made in fifteen 

 of them. Five men were induced to show apples at the 

 State Fair, and each of them took premiums, while apples 

 from the county won first premium in the county display. 



Seventy boys were enrolled in the Boys' Com Club, 

 and forty-eight of the number finished. Eighty boys and 

 girls were enrolled in the Boys' Pig Club, with twenty- 

 three finishing. Both of these clubs were well repre- 

 sented, and won a large share of the premiums offered 

 at the State Fair. 



Twelve boys worked in live stock judging, and ten 

 of them went to the State Fair and won prizes. 



Thirty-three schools were visited in the interest of 

 club work. 



One hundred and fifteen public meetings were hield 

 with a total attendance of 3 2,000 people.
