Plan to establish experimental farms across Colorado
Dr. B. L. Jefferson proposes creating state funded experimental farms in all agricultural areas with the Colorado Agricultural College in charge. The Carey act fund, potentially $500 600, would finance the effort, at no cost to taxpayers, with farms supplying education and training for local farmers. The plan includes expanding the fund to $500 000 and securing a legislature appropriation for $250 000 to build facilities and support departments.
