give him the full amount, claiming the

This irritated the Justice, whereupon he re-
moved his coat and made dire threats. An

The large attendance al al former Farm

active part taken by those in attendance, as
sures Us that We need no longer urge the
people to come. The important question in
the past has been, and 10 doubt will contiR-
ue in the future to be, e how shall We accom-
mOdate all who are in aitendance2n
The fact that the Court ball has always
been crowded has led rs to believe that in
order to accommodate al il may be necessa-
" to provide for an overflow meeting. For
this reason We have secured the attendance
of sufficient number Of helpers TO enable
Us TO keep two meetings running atsthe
same time If Il should be found necessary TO
secure an additional hall. Among those
from abroad who have promised to be pres
ent if they can arrange TO do so, who have
no special assignments upon the programme,
but will take part in general discussion, are
Hon. Geo. L. Hepburn, of Chaddsford, Pa,
and Hon Chas. s. Beatty, Of Leisenring. Pa.
Our instructors are all thoroughly practi-
Cal men, who will be found ready 10 respond
to any call for information on any subject
relating to the farming industry, whether 1,
be given through the query box or upon the
floor OF the institute.
Papers read before the Institute mus. be
handed 10 the resident member OF the State
Board of Agriculture for the use Of the
Board.
After each address or paper announced in
the programme the subject will be open for
general discussion, in which all are invited
to participate. In such discussion speakers
will De limited 10 five minutes. The exer-
cises will be interspersed with music and
