| EXTENSION SCENE A" w N??h Canta T ? ? A AGRICULTURAL A II EXTENSION i^r^RSSSSli I " MMMMjl SERVICE Jokk : On Monday. January 4, as .ihe Extension Service began its new year, we bad the opportunity to present our annua) report to the county commissioners and state legislators regarding our edu cational programming activi ties for the past fiscal year. In addition to the county com missioners and state legisla tors, the Extension Advisory Council members and some members of the local news, media were present. Some of the facts that we presented to those present included a report that 5,580 minutes of actual on-air time was utilized during 1481 on local radio stations to provide factual up-to-date information to local citizens, la addition to the vast amount of radio time, 95 minutes of television time was also utilized; plus, there were over 3,000 persons who visited individually the Eztea sion Office and mote than 17,000 individuals who called 738-8111 for specific informa tion. We have reported many times in this column that a part of the programming efforts of the Extension Ser vice is the provision of free and up-to-date informational bulletins or pamphlets to persons who either atop by the O.P. Owens Building or who request these bulletins by other means. We have printed educational bulletins on thousands of subjects. Thus, in the areas of 4-H, home economics, and agri culture one should be able to secure a reasonable amount of information via the sources that I have mentioned or through other means by which we disseminate educational information. Last year there were over 44,000 informational news letters mailed to producers. home makers. and 4-H club 17,000^sp?cid^tafbnnatio^ ms wore written locally by oar agents and programs such as the Crop Promotion Banquet. 4-H Achievement Awards Program, Livestock Awards Banquet. Farm-City Week efforts, and other special programming efforts of this type colled for the printing of more than 5,000 special ban quet-type programs. Natural ly, there were 52 newspaper columns tuepared by this writer qwq f?ur additional columns or editorials were prepared for the local media. While all of these pro gramming efforts may sound quite significant, there were many other activities such as agricultural educational mee tings, livestock shows, bizar res, Extension ho me makers programs, 4-H leader meet ings, and scores of others that accounted for practically an average of one meeting per day being held by the Exten sion Service in Lumberton or other areas of Robeson Coun ty. Thus, while these numbers that 1 have mentioned may seem impressive, there exists an opportunity for hundreds of thousands of other local citizens to take advantage of information and programs that are offered through the Robeson County Agricultural Extension Service. While the informational bulletins may be prepared by Extension specialists in Ra leigh, essentially all of the other information that is disseminated is accumulated and prepared by local agents. Therefore, there is usually some information available through the Extension Office that can address a multitude of needs of our local citizenry. Thus, in the future, even though we received more than 17,000 calls requesting infor mation last year, we heartily encourage anyone who may need practically any type of information in the agricultur al, 4-H, home economics, community resource devel i apnea*. or other utu which m*f be construed u feting into these are si such as urban andscaping, beautification. hone insect control, and hundreds of other areas of this type to keep in mind that this information is available through the local Extension Office which is located in the O.P. Owens Agriculture Buil ding west of Lumberton. NEWS VIEWS Robert L.
