The largest and most successful Bust
ness College in the west. The following
are some Of Its special advantages:
1st. 1t is member of the Internation-
al Business College Association, and it,
Scholarships are good in all the Colleges
Of the Association.
I'd. The student sapes money by cheap
er rates for board. Good board. in pri-
vate families, costs our students from
$500 to $3.50 per week. The same class
of board would cost, in large city of
three hundred thousand inhabitants, at
least two dollars per week mora saw
ing to our students, while taking the
course, of more than enough to paw for
a Life Scholarship in our Institution
But we do more. We have large num-
Der of students who club together and
board themselves. and to all who board
in this way, We furnish, free Of charge,
the use of furniture, including bedstead,
chairs, table, stove, aud cooking uten-
slls. Some of our best students are
boarding in this way, at less than one
dollar and half per week, including all
expenses for board and room rent.
A smart student, who boards himself
as suggested above, can complete the
whole course for one hundred an d ttcenfu-
flee misunderstanding tuition, board,
books, stationery, and all necessary ex-
penses. This allows for five months
board and expenses.
Sd. There are no extra expenses, gas
tax, naturalization, janitor's, or gradual
ing fees.
4th. Our rooms are arranged express
ly for our Business College They are
the largest and most complete rooms
used for Business College purposes in
the West, the main hall being 60x9O feet.
Students are required to study at the
College, where they can apply to the
teacher in charge for instruction and
explanation as they may need it.
9Th. TIE Da0snport Business College,
is tie best-because it is the largest and
cheapest; because of It's experienced and
able teachers; because it is located in
the largest aud best city in the State,
and Is able to furnish situations to a
larger per cent of its graduates; and be-
cause it possesses the confidence of the
entire business community, and its di-
plomas are passports to favor among
business men,
9th. The Actual Business Department
of this College affords ample facilities
to impress upon the students mind what
he has learned in the theory department.
The students not only do business among
themselves in the College, but with the
other Colleges of the Association, thus
establishing inter accommodation, where.
by foreign business is carried on in the
same manner as that which takes place
in the Actual Business World. This
INSTRUMENTATION is now actually
taking place, thus opening correspond
ence between other Colleges of the Asso-
citation Through these agencies, ship
ments are made and consignments re-
ceived, with all The attending cores
pOndence.
The Telegraphic Department is In
charge of practical operator, of expe-
rience and ability, who devotes his whole
time exclusively to this department.

From John r. Dillon, Judge Of u. s.
Circuit Court.
Educated labor is always in demand
Commercial Colleges well conducted
supply an obvious educational need
The course of instruction is essentially
and pointedly practical. 1t is not in lieu
of, but rather supplementary to, school
or academical education. II connects
these with the every day duties and
practical business of life. Young men
contemplating LIFE OF BUSINESS can,
in my judgment, most profitably pursue
course of instruction in the Davenport
Business College.

CLEAN SEED.

The New York Herald says: Till.
ers of the soil may greatly increase
the amount of their crops by using
clean seed and keeping the land free
from weeds. This is particularly the
case with wheat. 1t is nothing un-
common for farmers having eight or
ten acres Of wheat to have mixed with
it ten or fifteen bushels Of cookie and
chess. 1t is believed that two hum
dred bushels of cookie and chess is q
small amount to set down against the
town where the writer resides, per
year. Allowing that other towns in
the country raise the same amount
each. it would give US about 1000
bushels i'll the county. Allowing
fifty wheat counties in the State and
we should have 100000 bushels.
Now suppose that only ten times as
much wheat is grown in the United
States, equally foul, and we have g.
100000 bushels. Every plant OF
cookie or chess occupied as much
ground and drew as much fertility
from the soil as wheat plant would :;
hence it is plain that by clean culture
we can increase our wheat crop large
ly. Cookie and chess are nothing
but weeds, and, like all other weeds,
they are hardy, outstanding sum-
mer's heat and winters cold.
