present were Geo. Orr, Don Forbes,
T. J. Hartnctt, John Feller, Martin
Hogh, Henry Cain, J. F. Learner, T.
F. McGIashan. The visitors present
were Andrew Kramper, Dan Hart
nctt and H.F. Williams from the
United States department of agri
culture. After the minutes of the January
business maeting were road and ap
proved President Learner called up
on the county demonstrator to re
port the work he had done for the
association during the month of Feb
ruary. Mr. Raymond summed up his
work for the month as follows:
"During the month I have had 18
inquiries on farm problems over the
phone, G inquiries by letter, and 55
personal inquiries on farm problems;
have received 46 letters and sent out
30 letters and 60 postal cards; have
traveled 285 miles on tho train and
14 miles with a team. I have also
vaccinated 13 hogs.
"A meeting was held February 23
in the court houso at Dakota City at
which Mr. Williams explained the
farm survey work. Aas the roads
and weather were bad very few
turned out. Those present, howev
er, enjoyed a very interesting and
h. .r-t.tful talk by Mr. Williams.
"At a joint meeting of the Commer
"c club'of Homer and farmers in
the neighborhood tho Homer Farm
ers' Institute Association was organ
ized, officers elected and plans made
to have a good institute at Homer
next fall."
This reprrt was approved, after
which Mr. Raymond recommended
that the board direct him to carry
out and accomplish the following
work for the year 1915:
I. Boys' and Girls' Club work,
which includes corn clubs, potato
clubs, pig clubs, Gardening clubs,
canning clubs, and girls sewing and
cooking clubs.
II. Farm survey wo rk.
III. Hog cholera work.
IV. Crop demonstration work,
such as the treatment of data for
smut, corn cultivation experiments,
testing of varieties, the various
methods of seeding alfalfa, and oth
er things that show valuable lessons
in crop produotion.
V. Farm engineering work, such
as silo construction, drainage, plan
ning for farm buildings, water sys
tems, etc. Mr. Raymond further
said: "These are the main lines of
work I wish to take up. Of course
there will be other work at times
which will have to bo taken care of.
I believe if the association can carry
out these projects until definite re
sults are secured they will accom
plish something worth while to the
county. I therefore submit this
plan of work to the directors for
suggestion and approval."
Director Thos. Hartnett moved
that the board approve- the recom
mendations of Mr. Raymond (and
instructed himto carry' out and ac
complish the work he has outlined
for the year. Director Martin
Hogh seconded the motion aud same
was approved unanimously by the
board.
The consideration of bills was
then called for. Director Henry
Cain moved that Mell A. Schmeid's
bill of $4.75 for printing 1,000 ord
ers on May 12, 1914, be rejected.
Director Feller gave a second and
the motion carried.
The following bills were then ap
proved and the secretary instructed
to draw orders on the treasurer for
their payment:

After the consideration of bills
H. F. Williams, from the United
States department of agriculture,
introduced by the county demonstra
tor. Mr. Williams in his address to
the board explained farm survey
work and urged that tho county
agent and the board give a great
deal of attention to this work
Ae stated that farm survey work is
getting a business statement from a
large number or iarms, and was
done by taking farm records. He
stated that it was his duty to get
county demonstrators started arrtl
taught how to sake these farm rec
ords. He further stated that his
office would then make up sumuary
sheets and return them to the farm
ers who had their records taken.
These summaries would show the
profitableness of each farm as com
pared with the other farms in the
connty. From a summary a farmer
can ascertain whether his fprm is a
success financially, and if not a pay
ing proposition, where the trouble
lies. Mr. Williams stated that every
farm should pay five per csnt inter
est on the value of the farm and a
net labor income besides.
After the conclusion of this ad
dress the board adjourned,
