practical farm work is made one OF
the means OF instruction; the course
extends through two or three YEAR,.
The theoretical instruction is some
what similar to that of the Winter
Schools. and is so far of an elemen-
tary character that Toys who have
passed successfully through the
peoples schools" are capable Of
understa nding it. The practical
farm work and instruction vary &C.

diiiops. The Middle Agricultural
School" at Lichtenbof stands on
rather higher platform in the series

Agricultural Education in Ba-
Yaria.

For farmers sons, even OF the
hard. working classes, still other OPP
portunities are possible, which could
not escape the notice OF the prudent
German. Various; Rinter SCHOOLS have
accordingly been established by the
several agricultural soci cites, to be
Kept open from November to Febru-
airy inclusive. In 1928 there were
eleven of these schools, and others
we're projected. The organization
varies according to local needs. and
the means 81 command, but the
course OF study extends through one.
two or three winters. Besides the
common school branches Including
religion, instruction ia given in the
elements of natural science, field
culture, the raising of animals. book.
keeping and farm management; also,
where it ia possible, in drawing, field
measurements, drainage. soils, tools
and fruit culture. At Wtirzburg,
where there is a force of eleven
teachers, agricultural law, geography
and history have been included. It
is remark able to see the liberality of
both the State and the agricultural
societies in providing such schools,
az contrasted with the apparent In
difference OF the great mass OF labor
ing farmers. The fees for tuition are
not high, and the necessary living
expenses are made as how as possible,
that none may be excluded from want
of means. Some idea of the appro.
priations of money required may be
realized from the report OF 1865 9,
that in seven Winter Schools then
established So teachers instructed
157 pupils! Each teacher. however,
is generally employed but few hours
every week to give instruction in his
own department.. Besides the teach
ers' salaries, buildings. fuel and
incidental expenses, Bavaria literally
furnishes these schools with wall
charts, collections OF minerals, soils,
agricultural products. etc., models Of
machinery, of tools and flowers,
chemical and physical apparatus,
and various other means Of instruc.

OF the Rw, to be reconciled to it. A

When or where this relation will

For nearly thirteen years I have
held almost daily intercourse with
the readers Of this paper. l have
stood at the helm at times when
the storm ragged, and when all
around was darkness. I relinquish
the editorial chair to others with the
proud consciousness that nothing
has ever appeared in these columns,
in giving utterance to which, my
honest convictions have been stiled
or my conscience quieted BY gold or
other mercenary considerations. No
man or measure has been supported
or condemned from corrupt or venal
motives.
Ny intercourse with my brethren
of the press, in Tennessee and else
where, has been OF the most pleasant
character. I have given blows, not
always discreetly, and have taken
them, not always patiently, but I
cherish no feelings of malace or i'll
will. While I lay no claim to bril-
liancy or superior ability as journ-
alist, I trust I have done nothing to
disgrace this most honorable profess
sion, to which majority.of the best
years of my life have been devoted.
And now, in bidding adieu to my
companions through these many
years, years sweetened by honest
toll with an honest purpose, I trust
that prosperity and peace may
crown our common country, and
especially that those to whom
I, as an individual and journalist,
am under so many obligations, may
never have cause to say their conf,
dence has been abused or misplaced.
