SUGGESTIONS RELATIVE TO THE PREPARATION OF THE COUNTY EXTENSION AGENT'S ANNUAL REPORT.

The annual report should be a review, analysis, interpretation, and presentation to the people of

the county, the State, and theN ation of the sum total of the extension activities in each county for the

year and the results secured (including assistance rendered by subject-matter specialists). The making

of such a report is of great value to the county extension agent and the county people in showing the

progress made during the year as a basis for future plans. It is of vital concern also to the State and

Nation as a measure of rural progress and a basis for intelligent legislation and financial support. This

blank form covers simply the statistical phases of the report, and should be supplemented by a full

report in narrative form.

·

NARRATIVE SUMMARY.

The narrative report should be a statement in orderly fashion and arranged under appropriate

subheadings, of the work done, m.ethods used, and results secured under each project, as well as of the

general work accomplished. Every statement should be clear-cut, concise, forceful, a,nd, where

pos-sible, reinforced with ample data from the statistical summary. In the preparation of the part of the

report relative to each project, the results reported in the statistical summary for the project should

be analyzed, conclusions drawn, and recommendations made. The report may well be illustrated with

photographs, maps, diagrams, blue prints, or copies of charts and other forms used in demonstration

work. Full c1'edit should be given to all cooperating agencies. The lines should be single-spaced, with

double space between the paragraphs, and reasonably good margins left. The pages should be numbered

in

consecutive order.

The following outline is suggestive of how the narrative report may be clearly and systematically

presented:

SUGGESTIVE OUTLINE OF ANNUAL NARRATIVE REPORT.

I. Cover and title page. II. Table of contents.

III. Status of county extension organization. (1) Form of organization-distinctive features.

(2) Function of local people, committees, or project leaders in developing the program of work. (3) General policies, including relationships to other organizations.

(a) Soils.

(b) Farm crops }

(27)

,.

STATISTICAL SUMMARY.

To supplement the narrative part of the report, and in order that comparable State and National

summaries may be made, it is necessary to include a statistical summary of the work in each county.

The following form has been prepared to insure uniformity of reporting. In addition to the questions

asked under each subdivision of the report, space is provided to add "further data

if

it is desired. The

statistical summary will grow naturally out of the field and office records.

4. A DEMONSTRATION is an example designed to show the practical application of an established fact. Demonstrations may be of methods or of results.

Under method demonstrations include lecture demonstrations, practicums, etc., such as demonstrations of canning methods, home-mixing fertilizers, poultry culling, dress-form making, and the like, all involving short periods of time.

Under result demonstrations include demonstrations in which a substantial period of time is involved, records of results kept, and comparisons made, as in a child-feeding demonstration, corn-culture demonstration, pasture-improvement demon-stration, and the like.

5. A DEMONSTRATOR is an adult or junior who, under the direction of the extension service, undertakes to show in his community by example the practical application of an established fact, and who keeps records and reports on the same.

8. A STANDARD CLUB (boys' and girls') is one in which certain State or National standards for club organization and procedure are met.

9. A COMMUNITY CLUB (boys' and girls') is a club in which the classified clubs, such as corn, pig, canning, poultry, etc., are feder-ated into one large community club.

10. AN OFFICE CALL is a visit or a telephone call by a farmer, or other person, seeking agricultural or home economics information, as a result of which some definite assistance or information is given.

12. A TRAINING MEETING is a meeting at which project leaders or local leaders are trained to carry on extension activities in their respective communities.

This question includes the farms listed under questions 43, 45, 47, 48, and 50, but does not necessarily equal the total of these questions since not all soil practices that might be included in question 41 are listed and since one farm might adopt two or more new practices. This is also true of similar questions through-out this report.
