FARMERS GATHERING STATISTICS

Association is Collecting Information About Graduates in Agriculture.

There will be a meeting of the Harvard Farmers Association tomorrow evening in Holworthy 22 at 1.30 o'clock. Professor T. N. Carver, of the Department of Economics, will take charge of the meeting.

Ever since the initial meeting of the association on February 16 the executive board has been busy compiling a mailing list of graduates engaged in farming or allied pursuits throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico. This list consists of approximately 800 names of graduates. These are invited to join the Harvard Farmers Association in a circular letter sent out by the the executive board which enumerates the purposes of the organization as established by the board.

With the circulars the executive board is also sending out blanks by means of which it hopes to collect information with regard to the number and size of farms operated by graduates as well as the principal crop or kind of stock raised on each and the system of accounting used on each with other information of a like nature.

Membership in the association is open to all men who have ever been connected with Harvard and who are interested in the subject.
