A WORD 
FROM 
G. Augustus Norwood 
Republican Candidate for Senator Third Essex District 
POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT. 
As a representative the last two years I have worked for the follow- 
ing measures: 
I made the motion and worked tirelessly for the gratuity bill for the 
G. A. R. veterans. 
In the last session I voted and took an active interest in the Spanish 
War veterans’ preference bill. As a member of the Fish and Game com- 
mittee, | helped push the Schofield Clam bill through the committee and 
through the House. 
Also by virtue of membership in this important committee I did much to 
further the interest of local gunners. 
As a member representing seven small towns I have been in close 
touch with the farming interest and, through co-operation with the grange, 
have at all times worked for the farmers, and especially in reference to the 
milk bills, and the Essex County Agricultural school. 
I worked hard and assisted in passing appropriation bills for dredging 
in Manchester and Gloucester harbor. T am in close touch with the situa- 
tion and ready to take up further work next year. 
The Workingmen’s Compensation Act which means so much to the 
working man went through my committee and consequently I am in close 
touch with the bill and able to handle the many important amendments 
which will be presented in 1913. The matter has received my earnest sup- 
port for two years. In 1912 I voted against the amendment which would 
enable corporations to start a system of their own, which would work a 
hardship to the working man. 
Other labor bills for 1912 received my hearty co-operation which I 
will continue to give in the future, if elected. 
I have several unsolicited endorsements of labor organizations.

TABLISHMENT OF AGRICULTURAL 
ScHOOL,. 
The voters of Essex County will 
find on their ballots, November 5, the 
following question, upon which the 
Legislatue of 1912 ordered that a 
vote be taken: 
SHALL Essex County ESTABLISH AN 
INDEPENDENT), AGRICULTURAI, SCHOOL ? 
If this proposition gets a majority 
vote, the law as passed last year 
(Chapter 587, Acts of 1912) requires 
that such a school shall immediately 
be established. Provision is made 
that seventy-five thousand dollars may 
be raised by bond issue for the land, 
buildings and equipment. Half the 
running expenses is to be borne by the 
State, provided the State Board of 
Education approves the school as to 
its location and administration. The 
other half of the operating expenses 
is to be met by county taxation, the 
whole amount for this purpose from 
state and county being limited to 
twenty-five thousand dollars a year. 
When the bill providing for the pos- 
sible establishment of this school was 
before the Legislature, representatives 
of the Massachusetts Board of Edu- 
cation were frequently consulted. In- 
its present form, the bill has the ap- 
proval of the Board. If a school is 
established, it will be expected that 
the Board, through its representa- 
tives shall actively co-operate with 
the county authorities in order that 
the highest possible standards of agri- 
cultural education shall be main- 
tained. A number of western states 
have schools of this character and in- 
variably they have proven helpful, 
not only in agricultural education, but 
in giving local farmers expert assis- 
tance in a variety of ways. 
It would be the aim of the Board 
of Education in its supervision of 
such a school, to insure that the work 
should be of the highest practical 
character. Practical farming, agri- 
cultural science, farm accounting, and 
similar subjects would be taught. The 
Board would like to see the school es- 
tablished where practically all of the 
pupils attending it could go to their 
homes each night.
