Shall Marshall County Have County Agent
A movement in Marshall county seeks hiring a county agent funded by government and state aid totaling 1200 annually. The agent coordinates cooperative agricultural efforts, advertising, disease control, and upbuilding of farming industries, not giving general farming advice. Meetings across townships will explain the work and form a county association, with some farmers opposing due to misunderstanding of the role.
