To the Farmers of the State.

At the last meeting of tho Board of
Trustees of the Clemson Agricultural
College, / was requested to notify the
farmers at large ofthe willingness of the
Board to cooperate with them in the
work of holding Farmers Institutes at
least one in each Congressional Dis
trict. The Trustees will send Professors
OF the College, and whenever possible,
expert farmers, to talk upon such sub
jects as may be OF special interest to the
farmers in whose neighborhood the In
stitute may be held. To make such In
s~titutes profitible, it will be necessary
for farmers to attend and to join in dis
cussions that may from ti!ne to time
arise. Such an Institute should be an
agricultural school for the ordinary
farmer and should be free from AL red
tape or formality. To farmers interested
in tobacco raising, Ishall endeavor to
get a successful tobacco grower to talk
on that subject. To those interested in
dairying and cheese making, l shall try
to secure FOR them Prof. Hart or some
other expert dairymap. In 'short where
farmers desire an Institute, l shall be
pleased to cooperate with them in AJAX
ing it meet as far as possible their es-
pecial needs. AS We shall be able to hold
not more than one Institute in each Con.
gressional District, l shall be pleased to
proper time and place for holding the
same. 1t has been suggested that be.
tween the middle of July and the mid.
die of September will be the most suita-
BILE time. All correspondence in regard
to same. should be addressed to Presi.

School and Nation.

These are times of great national
anxiety. Social disturbances and
disclosures of political corruption
have alarmed the people. Worship
of the "mighty" dollar, of narrow
sectional and party ties, and other
evidences of a widespread and
growing egotism which does not
hesitate to sacrifice the general well
ware to the Moloch of selfish, am
billions and present desires are felt
to be indications of an approaching
crisis. Anxious minds are watch
ing with deep the gather
ing of clouds and flashes of light
ming, and are looking for signs of a
brighter and happier future. 1t is
natural that their hopes should CEN
ter on the education of the youth of
the country. There they seek for
help. What a heavy responsibility
this places upon the schools! They,
above all other institutions, are
considered the strongholds of the
nation and of society. Humanity
established them for the realization
OF its innermost wishes, and fosters
them as gardens in which it has
planted its noblest hopes. Are the
teachers aware of the trust confided
to their care? Many thousands Of
them certainly are. But are they
also imbued with the spirit Of the
ideals of mankind, and earnestly la.
boring to make their efforts pro-
ductive of the highest results.

Probably most teachers have from
time to time been called upon to la.
mcnt their inability to impress upon
pupils the reality of places and PEG.
pie met in the geography lessons.
-, Pupils read of and hear of far
away places and things, but they
have only vague ideas that such are
real.
The power to awaken interest
and enlist the understanding Of the
average child is badly needed in
this important branch.
To make the pupil conscious that
we have to deal with solid noun
%tains, broad stretches of territory,
swelling oceans, rapid rivers, broad
lakes, and large cities filled with
struggling masses Of men and wo-
men-to make these things actual
to a child's mind is a contamination
devoutly to be wished.
Lecture your scholars-add all
the charms of poetic fancy at your
command arous in them enthusi-
asm like your own; let them see
that you are in earnest. Tell them
Of the magnificent splendor of
Paris; of the dazzling beauties of
Mexico; Of the marvellous growth
of our own Chicago-dwell upon
all these things, and you are bound
to awaken an interest that the text
book will never develop.
The newspapers, with their fresh,
breezy columns, teeming with re-
cords Of accidents occurring in all
parts Of the world, may be made
n Of the teachers most efficient
aids in a geography lesson. It's
supply Of interesting items is album
dant and, applied judiciously by the
skillful hand of the bright teacher,
on memory's page, will render the
picture clear and distinct, and the
acquired instruction profound and
abiuing.
1t is, alas! too true that much OF
our oral instruction is directed to
the eyes and ears more often than
to the brains Of our pupils. We
talk too much cover their heads.
Don't put too much dependence in
your text books. The biographies
almost without exception, contain
an enormous amount of matter that
is absolutely trash, and utterly use.
less to the pupils who can master
it, and positively injurious to the
many who cannot.
Ever have in view the desire to
teach geography to your pupils as
you wish it had been taught to YOU
when you went to school. Teach
crs make ruinous mistakes when
they neglect local geography
Never mind about the pampas OF
South America when you can tel

more to a boy TO know as much
about his w country and State
than it is to know of far coun
