Excerpt from Biennial Report of the North Carolina Department of Agriculture, 1923In order to greatly increase their efficiency, the Department of Agriculture has begun a comprehensive building program on the seven branch station farms. At the Mountain Station a magnificent poultry plant has been erected, together with several good houses for the laborers. A good dairy barn and other out - buildings have also been completed on this farm. The same is true of the other farms, and an effort is being made to have them reach the highest point of efficiency in serving their particular sections.Recently the Board of Agriculture turned over the old Serum Plant farm, near Raleigh, to the Animal Industry Division, for more extended tests with swine. This will make the eighth branch station farm now being operated with Department funds.As usual, the Department fostered the work with women, and no more outstanding piece of work 111 the South has been done than that accomplished this past year by the Home Demonstration Division in establishing curb markets and stall markets for the rural women. This is, of course, in addition to the regular work of the Division in home making, canning, clothing and home ground beautification, and club work.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
