This photograph from the Department of Agriculture shows the “Booker T. Washington Agricultural School on Wheels,” a movable school in Madison County, Alabama. Shown in the image are agricultural agents and a rural nurse.
A dedication on the side of the vehicle reads:
This truck with its equipment was donated to the Federal and State Agricultural Extension Service by the Negro Farmers and their friends of the State of Alabama, in appreciation of Tuskegee Institute and in memory of the late Booker T. Washington, who helped to make Negro extension work possible and who loved the country people and “The Great Big Out of Doors.”
