Agricultural and Horticul- | . tural Agents. “The demonstration work which has been carried on by the State uni- versity and the federal government has made apparent the value to our |farmers and fruit growers of agri- cultural, horticultural and stock' . breeding demonstrations. There is: room for enlargement of this very | | beneficial work. The fact that the | work of the agricultural experiment ' station is more or less limited by [lack of funds and the large territory | to cover suggests the value of | demonstrator in the counties, who would be skilled in proper methods of farming and fruit growing, selec- | | tion of seed and plants, breeding of live stock, extermination of pests, | Jjudging the value and proportions of | fertilizers, treatment of soils and the diseases of trees and plants, “I recommend that a law be passed authorizing the board of county com- missioners of cach county to employ #uch agricultural and horticultural demonstrator when in their judz- ment it would be profitable to do so, {and when deemed advisable, to au-! | thorize such agent to employ assist- ,arts. Such demonstrator could also render valuable service by giving i practical lessons in agriculture in the public schools, thereby making more efficient this branch of the public school work; also in co-oper- ating with the corn clubs and toma- to clubs, stimulating and extending this commendable work. The law should allow two or more counties to Jointly employ such demonstrator if desired.” Agricultural P(;’ize: for Boys and irls. | “Any policy which tends to en-: cournge and increase agricultural activities 18 of unquestionable value to our State. Florida has an unlim- ited amount of rich and productive I'nd and it has untold possibilities for agricltural expansion. Every reasonable effort should be made to promote our farming interests. The ambitious boys and girls of the State will readily respond to the encour- agement which might be offered to them by contests in growing the! ¢10ps to which the soils of their re- —— spective sections are adapted. “I suggest the wigdom of leglsla- | tien being enacted which would au- ! thorize the county commissioners of the various counties to offer prizes for such contests.
