Excerpt from Extension Results as Influenced by Various Factors: A Study of 532 Farms and Farm Homes in Clay and Sedgwick Counties, Kans., 1927The data were collected by the survey method, representatives of the extension service calling at every farm within the areas selected and obtaining the information direct from the farners and farm women Concerned. The field work was done by experienced extension workers who were thoroughly acquainted with the extension program and activities in the areas studied over a period of years. The members of the survey partywere trained in the use of the questionnaire card (fig. 1 and 2) before going to the field, and the schedules were carefully checked at headquarters each day and any errors or inconsistencies corrected in the field. No part of the data was collected by the local county extension workers, but these agents assisted in all other ways possible in expediting the field work and insuring completeness and accuracy of data. The definitions of extension terms approved by the Association of Land Grant Colleges and the United States Department of Agriculture and published in the annual statistical report oi'county extension workers have been closely followed throughout.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
