Farm Bureaus Expand Kansas Agriculture Extension
The Smith Lever fund will finance extensive extension work across Kansas in agriculture and home economics, via county agents and farm bureaus. Counties forming farm bureaus with at least 25 percent of farmers or 250 members receive 800 to 1600 dollars annually from federal and state funds, plus county support. By 1915 more bureaus and agents are planned, with 1914 reports showing 11 agents visiting 2755 farmers, 2224 office visits, and thousands of calls and meetings.
