Abstract
"We have chosen as the title of the present publication 'Making the Farm Pay'. We choose to interpret this title rather broadly. Farm labor must be properly compensated in dollars for capital invested and labor expended. The farm must, at the same time, offer other compensations which, in many cases, dollars cannot buy. The farm must pay in terms of satisfactory living conditions for the farm family. The farm must pay in terms of a progressive environment in which boys and girls may grow to manhood and womanhood. The farm must pay in terms of communities which satisfy that in born desire of human beings everywhere to mingle with their kind in work, in play, and in giving expression to their community, state, and national patriotism. To make the farm pay from each and all of these angles is the purpose of the Agricultural Extension Service. The following pages may reveal the extent to which that purpose is being accomplished. This report, if it may be so designated, comprises two divisions. The first of these is a general statement by the Director of Extension covering matters of immediate administrative concern. The second division has been prepared for publication by the agricultural editor. Division two is not a report, but rather an analysis of reports by one intent upon the purpose of interpreting for farmer readers agricultural facts and figures."--Page 3 and 4.
