of Mrs. II. &. Woodin.
The meeting was called to order by Pres
ident Mrs. Geo. 7. Mason.
A duet by the Misses Nellie Cramer and
Myrtle Mason, and prayer by Rev. ID. L..
Cramer, constituting the open exercises.
The president had previously appointed Mr..
Cramer to officate as Chaplain during her
term of office.
Miss Myrtle Mason read very nice paper
entitled "Our visit to lansing" which
would have done credit to one far beyond
her years. 1t was both well written and
well read. Miss Guilford read paper on
the same subject. The club voted to have
her paper published. Miss Guilford wishes
to say that she fully appreciates the compli-
ment paid her in the vote taken by the club,
but as the paper is quite lengthy she will
give only a synopsis of it, which is: The
Burton Farmers Club went to Lansing,
visited the Agricultural college, and then
came home again.
Mr.. Merrill spoke very highly of the col
lege as an experiment station, gave their
various methods of cultivatng cereals and
other crops. One plat of wheat was planted
and cultivated with the hoe. This gave a
much larger yield. One plant, the product
of one kernel of wheat, gave 46 heads, with
kernels much larger, and OF darker, richer
color than the ordinary method of cultiva-
ton gives. He was of the opinion that we
should cultivate more and use less seed.
Mr.. Merrill also regarded it desirable
institution for giving young men practical
education and fitting them for filling Their
various avocatiOns in life.
In reviewing the events of the day the
club recalled the kind and courteous atten-
tions received from Messrs. Geo. Il. Mason
and j. N. Mcbride, who took charge of the
party, for which vote of thanks was ten
dered them.
Miss Nellie Cramer, who has just return
ed from Wisconsin, where she has beer
spending year with her brother, DIR. Geo

of the Canyon, mountains and river scenery
of that state.
The subject for discussion at the mex
meeting for the gentlemen, is-"What Il
the best variety of wheat to SOW, and how
much should be sown TO the acre." Speak
ers: Messrs. Merrill, Lewis, and Cramer.
The subject for the ladies: 1.-The bes
