DIRECTORY OF GENERAL EXTENSION SERVICES.1 The following list of institutions and extension activities is fairly complete and approximately accurate. The information was obtained from catalogues, announcements, and correspondence. Since this bulletin is concerned chiefly with university extension, no attempt was made in compiling the directory to include all the agricultural colleges and the normal schools. 1 The directory is a revision of a mimeograph bulletin prepared by J. J. Schlicher. 2 See succeeding pages for fuller tabulation of activities of State university extension services. |
