Meeting Of the Farmers Clubs.

The Evansville Farmers Club and the
Patu KENT Plal te S Club were entertalnet
by DR.. r. S. Hill. at his beautiful new hOm'
on Wednesday evening. Some of TIL
members were kept away by theinclemenc.
of the weather. Those who were presen
spent a most delightful and profitable
evening. The visitors were first invited
to inspect the buildings and premises, AM
subsequently at the business meeting tn
inspection committee consisting of W. 5
Powell, John Snowden and Fred Sassce
made a lengthy report from which WI
make the following extracts:
The farm as a whole was found il
first class condition, and with notable
improvements in shape of roads and stabl
ing to say nothing of the almost palatia
residence"
The operation of dehorning as exempt
fed by the host on a Jersey bull seems tt
us to be a march forward, this operation wa:
quickly and scientifically done will
apparently very little pain to the ANNA
which when l%oosened, Immediately com
menced the ordinary vocation of consum,
ing what seemed to be a bountiful supply
of remarkably good grass"
The condition of both wheat and grass
on the place is so remarkably good that
the hosts system of farming could be
well followed to advantage"
THE progressiveness of the host is best
shown by a fine young Red Polled bull, as
he proposes to follow the recent advance
in cattle by breeding this strain which is
peculiarly adapted to beef" The com.
mittee also commented upon the magnifi.
cent horse, BRAT" n of the pets OF
Stratford Stock Farm, and also upon the
fine sucking colts exhibited and upon
the improved breeds of poultry.
President, j. d. Cassard, of the Vans
vile club, presided over the meeting and
Mr.. George E. Loweree acted in his
capacity as Secretary.
The application of Mr.. Charles H.'Stan.
ley for membership was received. The
discussion was upon the subject of de
hoiHiuS SdtIiS, Nv thC hoSt gave ill
interesting talk. The general opinion
seemed to be that it should be practiced
for the safety and comfort of the beasts,
and as a means of lessening the danger to
man from vicious animals.
Committees on better transportation ia
cilities and on immigration reported pro
gress.
The Patuxent Planters Club will meet
next month at the home Mr.. Upton Brooke
when the annual election of officers will be
held.
1t is needless to say that the visitors
