pulgn is to show the American farm
that alfalfa Is the most profitable er

erne ef the Result*.
Results of the Kent county (KM
campaign ere:
(1) Biz thousand farmers visited
their homes during a flve-d
campaign.
(I) Thirty-two meetings held.
<S> Three hundred and serenty-11
miles traveled by the Alfalfa A
tomobtle Train.
(4) One hundred and thlrty-slx alfal
talks made by the Holden at
of alfalfa lecturers.
(I) Many applications for similar ea
palgns from all parts of t
United States.
The Kent county campaign has be
followed by campaigns In Allngi
Barry, Orand Traverse and St. Cli
counties, Michigan; Van Wert, Mark
Fulton, Williams and Champaign coi
ties, Ohio; and Sangamon, DuPa
and Kane counties, Illinois.
Great Meeting In Ohla,
t one meeting In Ohio upon tl
farm of Joseph E. Wing, near Mecha
lee burg, nearly 4,000 people gather
irum an pan* or unio and adjotnli
states to learn more about alfalfa. .
this great meeting the Ohio State J
falfa Growers' association was orgs
tsed. Over 100 antomolles made \
the alfalfa train. It Is recorded i
the greatest agricultural assemble;
la the history of Ohio. Other Oh
counties where the work >$as be*
taken up report success on ere
hand.
Sangamon and Kane counties, 11
nols, hare both conducted great cai
pal gas. At one meeting In William
Ills, 111., orer 1,200 farmers cams
hear the alfalfa lecturers.
In all of these campaigns whl<
were conducted within a period <
about two months nearly 60,000 fan
ere hare been reached with the go
pel of alfalfa.
As a result also of the eampati
work It Is conservatively estlmat*
that 200,000 acres of alfalfa will I
needed during this and the oomli
season.
Such is the result of the Initial woi
of campaigning for alfalfa, but vast
more than this tangible result hi
been accomplished. Bvery farm
throughout the region where the woi
was conducted Is talking about i
falfa. The co-operation of the schoo
In the territory Is a very lmporta
and effective feature. School oflBclal
from the highest to the lowest, hai
never failed to appreciate the oppo
tnnlty.
Professor Holden has express*
himself as considering it the mo
wonderful experience and the mo
beneficial trip from the farm stae
point that he has ever taken.
But this Is not all?wherever tl
