No. 35 EAST LANSING, MICHIGAN AUGUST 31, 1925 IvIUMFORD, '91, AUTHOR "OF NEW~LAW Dean of Missouri College of Agriculture Writing Measure Providing Funds Credited by Alumni Publication With for Certain Phases of Agricultural Research. According to the Missouri Alumnus, F. the college of '91, dean of B. Mumford, agriculture of the University of Missouri, is the author of the bill signed by Presi dent Coolidge in February through which in funds are made available for research farm problems affecting products and phases of rural life. T he article follows: the marketing of to One of the most important and law provides for far- reaching laws in t he interests of agricul ture, prepared by Dean F. B. Mumford of the Missouri College of Agriculture, was approved by President Coolidge on Febru in ary 24, 1925. This creased appropriations the colleges of agriculture of the several states for scien- t.ific research in the interest of agriculture. T he bill provides for an initial appropria tion of $20,000 for the first year and $10,- 000 additional each year thereafter until ihe total appropriation shall have reached $50,000 annually. The provisions of the bill limiting the use of these funds are in dicated by from ihe bill itself: " T he the following quotation indirectly on funds appropriated pursuant to this act shall be applied only to paying the necessary expenses of con investigations or making ex ducting periments bearing the production, manufacture, preparation, u: e, distribution and marketing of ag ricultural products and including such scientific researches as have for their purpose the establishment and main agricultural tenance of a permanent industry; and such economic and so ciological investigations as have for their purpose the development and im provement of the rural home and rural life, and for printing and disseminat ing the results of such researches." 1 the Hatch The administrative features of to those of this bill and are similar Adams acts providing funds for agricul tural experiment stations, but the uses for which these funds may be expended are broader and place emphasis upon certain phases of agricultural research in agricul tural economics, home economics and rural sociology. The increased emphasis upon the business side of farming is a recogni tion of the importance of world economic conditions in the development of agricul ture. The prosperity of the farmer is not alone dependent upon efficient production methods, but is determined by economical methods of distribution and marketing. In vestigations in distribution and marketing of farm products will therefore be under taken by all the stations benefiting from this act. The bill also recognizes that the rural problem solution of involves the rural conditions. It therefore provides for investigations of the rural home and rural living. It is clear from a careful reading of t he provisions of this bill that its authors had in mind the establishment of a permanent the and efficient agricultural industry and satisfied development of a contented and rural people. The provisions of the bill to include every phase are broad enough of the production, manufacture, prepara tion and use of the farm products, as well as broad problems of agricultural econo mics, home economics and rural sociology. This magnificent endowment for agri cultural research, added to amounts already available, will represent a major endow ment of approximately $250,000,000 and an annual income of more than $10,000,00 for the state experiment stations.
