Last January the Holt exten
sion service board made the de
cision to “build”. They selected
some 45 representatives, ranch
ers. farmers, business men, clergy
men. homemaker, 4-H club lead
ers, farm organization leaders,
representatives of government
agencies, breed associations, rural
youth and cooperative represen
tatives to come together to draw
up the plans for the enlarged ex
tension program building.
They designed a four - story
program. The ground floor was
for farming, the second, was for
ranching, and the third to be de
voted to family economics and the
fourth floor will “house” the
community or family life activi
ties.
In order to plan the activities
that were to be studied and car
ried out on each floor, these local
leaders divided themselves into
subcommitties and elected a
chairman and secretary and ad
ed some specialists from the
county who were sucessful in
their field to help them. These
four committies met once or
twice to complete their tenative
plans and recommendations for
the extension work to be carried
on their floor.
The local extension agents and
the state extension services ser
ved as resource persons to give
them needed information they
desired and to bring the working
tools to help determine the pro
jects to be worked on and draw'
up the blueprints.
County building committee plus
county specialists met a second
time anti each committee pre
sented their blueprints to county
group who eliminated any dupli
cation and unnecessary effort.
The building committee then
compiled a findings report and
decided to complete long range
blue prints for county, extension
program in fall and winter 1956.
Subcommittties continue to
meet during the year and study
their field more in detail.

and progress was reviewed. Mi
nor changes in the blueprints

committies had to meet again to
