Taking the college to the people
Abstract
"Herewith is presented a combined report of the extension activities and accomplishments of the College of Agriculture for the years 1921, 1922 and 1923. It has been the practice of the Extension Service of the College of Agriculture to require all of its project leaders to submit detailed annual reports of the activities conducted under their respective projects. From time to time these reports have been abstracted and published. The purpose of these published reports is to give the interested person a general conception of the character of work undertaken together with a general understanding of the more important accomplishments. No system of reporting has ever been devised, which tells the whole story of Extension work during the year. Thousands of farmers, farm women and farm children are reached each year indirectly. The College naturally knows nothing about these people having been reached at all. Thousands of others are reached directly, but they do not report back and consequently there is no way of knowing the extent to which such persons have been actually helped. Such figures as are given, therefore, tell only a part of the story of accomplishment through the extension work of the College."--Page 5.
