John Hamilton, director of farmers’
institutes, has completed an appor-
tionment showing the number of days
the department of agriculture will fur-
nish two lectures to each county in
the state for institute work during the
season of 1806-07, The apportionment
is made on the basis of two days of in-
stitute to every county having not over
1,000 farms, three days to each county
having more than 1,000 and not over
1,600 farms; afterward, one day for
each 1,500 farms or fraction thereof ad-
ditional,
This insures department aid to each
county in proportion to its agricultur-
al interests, The state has been divid-
ed into three sections, with 100 days to
two sections and ninety-nine to anoth-
er. A separate set of lecturers will be
