Aid to Agriculture Trustees' Report


The Trustees for County Aid to Agriculture consists of a board of nine unpaid members appointed by the County Commissioners. These Trustees are empowered by law to maintain one or more Agents or instructors in Agriculture, Home-making and Country life, who shall meet the residents of the County individually and in groups for the purpose of teaching and demonstrating better practice in Agri- culture and Home-making, the benefits to be derived from coopera- tive efforts, better methods of marketing farm products, and the or- ganization of communities to build up country life. The statutes fur- ther allow the Trustees to receive on behalf of the County money appropriated by any town or by the Federal Government . . . or by the General Court for any County . .. and may enter into any agreements . .. relative to Extension Work with adults and with boys and girls in Agriculture, Home-making and Country life. (G. L. Ch. 128)


In accordance with the above, the Hampden County Trustees dur- ing the past year maintained Agents who have been of service to all residents of the County. These Agents have conducted meetings and demonstrations and made individual farm and home visits in connec- tion with many phases of Agricultural and Home-making practices in all cities, towns, and communities in Hampden County.


Our Agents have made contacts in every city, town, and com- munity in Hampden County during the past year in one or more projects and have been ably assisted by local committees or individual voluntary leaders as the occasion required. In Wilbraham the fol- lowing citizens have been of great assistance as voluntary leaders in such projects as were conducted during the year: Mrs. Norman Thurlow, Mr. Henry J. Clark, Miss Caroline Baier, Mrs. Clifford DuBray, Mrs. Henry M. Baier, Mrs. Charles J. Hatch, Mrs. Howe Newell, Mrs. Fred McCombe, Mrs. Roland Bennett, Mrs. Carl F. Alsing, Mrs. Spencer Clayton, Mrs. William Hopkins, Mrs. Eugene Hansen, Mrs. Robert Cochran, Mrs. Walter Subjek, Mrs. A. J. Brooks, Mrs. John Prendergast, Mrs. Weldon Fellows, Mrs. Holton Pease, Mrs. Gilbert C. Walker, Mrs. O. K. Gilbert, Mrs. Herbert Sanborn, Mrs. C. A.
