WHAT IS FARM DEMONSTRATOR: V. W. Pugsley TelLs About These Much Needed "Hired Men" for the Fanners of the County If I should attempt to put into one sentence what a farm demonstrator is, or should be, it would be this: He is a man of practical farm experience with an agricultural education work ing under the joint direction of th farmers, the slate agricultural col lege and the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, to assist in de terraining the best agricultural prac tices for the community in which he is located. In the term agriculture practices I would include the prob lems both of production and distri button. A little later in this article I shall have more to say about the specific duties of farm demonstrators, and what I shall say will be based upon what has actually been done in this and other states, rather than upon what might be done. Perhaps clearer understanding of what farm demonstrator is may be obtain ed by first gaining an idea of what he is not. The things be is not proba bly make a longer list than the things he Is. That Is why be is of value to a community. Those who ! profess to be everything are usually not very capable at anything. Koine Nota In the first place, a farm demon strator is not an adviser." Some farmers seem to think that a demon strator is a person who has a lot of notions and theories about farming that he is trying to have adopted in the county in which he is employed. If that were true I would have no use for a farm demonstrator. No per son, no matter how much experience of a successful nature he may have accumulated in one section of the state, or how much agricultural edu cation he may have secured is capa ble of going into community strange : to hlni and giving a very large a ' mount of advice to the resident farmers as to just how to banlde their respective farms. The farm emonstrator is distinctly not an ad iser in the sense in which we ordin arily use that word. Neither is the farm demonstrator n "expert." No man should be em ployed by a county association as an agricultural expert. No man knows it all. Few men are capable of pos ing as experts in special lines of ag riculture, to say nothing of being ex perts in all lines. The farm demon strator should be able to secure ex pert advice from specialists and au thorities In different lines, and he should himself have a good agricul tural education to assist him in diag nosing farm problems and to enable him to suggest solutions; but he should never pose or be hired as an 'agricultural expert. Not Agent of Business The farm demonstrator, In Nebr aska at east, is not an agent of any trust or Industrial combination, any business interest or interests, or any group of middlemen local or other wise. He Is Bimply the agent of the farmers themselves. True, the dem onstrator works under the direction of the agricultural college and the department of agriculture, but these are creations of the people In the in terest of agricultural advancement. Neither of these institutions receives support other than revenues from public domain and the taxes of the people. Funds to and in promoting county demonstration work may be paid to county associations by busi ness men or groups of business men, but the agricultural college and the department of agriculture will not co-operate in any work if contribu tions for its support have any strings whatever tied to them. Everybody who ' is interested in the growth and development of Ne braska must be interested in agricul ture, because the wealth of the state is founded on agriculture. For that reason business interests offer sub scriptions to farm management as sociations in the counties where dem onstrators are employed. If the farmers desire to accept these sub scriptions as a county .association of farmers that Is their privilege and their affair. The agricultural col lege and the department of agricul ture simply insist that such subscrip tions shall be free from olbigatlons. Business interests in Nebraska have formed what is called The Ag ricultural Development. Commission of Nebraska. Their purpose, as set forth by the president of the Com mission, is to raise funds to assist in the development of agricultural re sources in the state. The Commis sion will pay its contributions to tbe treasurers of count yassociations making application for assistance. The only condition upon which the Commission will grant funds in this way is that the county association shall be organized in accordance with the state plan for demonstra tion work, and that tbe funds given shall be used for such work. The business interests of Nebraska neith er hire nor direct the work of any demonstrator. They contribute to the work If the farmers of the com munity desire to accept their contri butions; otherwise, they do not con tribute. "I Saw a last night," writes a Philadelphia man. "I was in the men's cafe of the . . . Hotel. A few tables away, and close to a window, was a rather rouh-lock-ing man of about fifty. He took a cigar out of his pocket, bit off the end, put the cigar in his mouth, took a match out of the match box, and tried to light his cigar. The match broke in two. He took another.
