Excerpt from Status and Results: County Agent Work, Northern and Western States, 1919
When county agent work was started in the Northern and Western States it was hoped that the men appointed to the positions woiuld remain in the work for a considerable period Of years and that the work might be thought Of as a career, comparable at least, with other professional work in agriculture. Experience has proven that this is desirable, and that a good county agent becomes increasingly useful as his period Of service is lengthened. It takes time to learn local conditions and to gain the confidence and cooperation Of farmers.
Fig. _1. - The county agent's office is the farmer headquarters. An average of farmers called on each agent during the year to discuss their farm problems.
