Farmers Institute.

Don't forget that Jan. IL and Is
are the dates for our Farmers Insti-
tute. Let every one turn out and help
make it a success. We have a good
program. Come prepared to take
part in the discussions, for it is in the
discussions that we derive the most
benefit. Don't think you know it all,
but come to learn as well 2s TO teach,
for it is through the Interchange of
ideas that we obtain useful and bene-
fetal knowledge.
If anyone has good specimens of
ia rm products bring them with you,
for they may be the means Of bring
ing out some useful knowledge n the
line of their production. If anyone is
milking cows and wants to know if
they are paying for their keeping,
just bring some of their milk, the
second day, as there will be a milk
te It on that day. To get a fair sample
of milk for testing, take the milk as
soon as MIXED and pour it from one
pail into another several times, which
loroughly mikes it, then take your
sample and put it into bottle. One
half cup will be sufficient for testing
purposes. Come one, come all, and
don't be afraid to ask questions when
the discussions are going on and you
will go home feeling that the State
has greatly benefited all classes by
giving us the Farmers Institute.

Resolutions of Respect.

At regular meeting of the Pioneer
Hook and Ladder Company of the city
of River Falls, held Jan. 9TH 1895. the
following resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, Under the will of that
Providence to whose WAYS we must sub
init, comrade w. w. Thayer has been

ing family our warmest sympathy and
the assurance that he will be held in

the hour of danger and need.

for our departed comrade the apparatus
of our company be draped in morning for
thirty days.

Normal Items.

The school is hard at work after the
holiday vacation, nearly all of the
students having returned. A few
new students have entered and a few
who have attended ON previous years
are again in line.
The River Falls Normal is the
most distant from Madison of all the
NOrmals in the state, nevertheless
the delegation to the State Teachers
Association is usually good and COM
pares very favorably with the
attendance from schools less remote.
This year seven of the faculty attend
ed, namely President Parker, Profs.
Brier, Clark and Ewing, and Misses
Shultes, Smith and Hatherell.
The school contains several we'll
stocked aquaris. which affords illlstra-
tive material in the line OF fishes,
crustaceans, aquatic insects, etc.
Among the living specimens whose
habits may be studied at any time are
sunfish, suckers, dace, sinners, sickle
backs, darters and cray-fish.
The water in the aquaria is aerated
by the growth of aquatic plants, SO
that each aquaria is a miniature
world by itself. Best success seems
to result by having the tanks in the
direct sunlight for a portion of the
time. Under these conditions the
liberated oxygen may be seen rising
from the growing plants.
Through the fishermen at Hudson,
a number of fishes were lately obtain
ed. Among these lamprey and
sturgeon formed interesting additions
TO the collections, the latter, being
the only ganoid in the cabinet. 1t is
believed that an intimate familiarity
with the more common kinds of fishes
found in Wisconsin streams is more
valuable than a study of the many
kinds the student will never meet.
Mr.. w. ID. Parker Jr. recently pre-
sented the school with a series of over
40 geological specimens, named and
labeled, from the Archaean Of Michi-
gan, which he collected while on the
Michigan Geological Survey. These
will be of service to the future
Geology classes.
