Bums .S'ecrelur',v Board of Agriculture The membership of the State Board of Agriculture is charged with a duet of re- sponsibilities.

College a11d the four sectional agricultural schools, namely: Connor's State School of Agriculture, War- ner: Murray State School of Agriculture, Tislioiningog Cameron State School of Agri- culture, Lawton, and the .Panhandle A. and M.

The chief accountant for the State Board of Agriculture audits all the claims submitted by the agricultural colleges as well as those of the department of agriculture. These are prepared by the chief accountant for presenta- tion to the board and after oflicial approval, sent to the state auditor for payment. The other purpose is the approving of agricultural regulations concerning activities ol' the State Department of Agriculture. Page 22
