A brother of Rev. G. o. Howe is super
intendent of the experiment station in
Burlington, and it was but natural that
Prof. J. L. Hills (also connected with the
station) when here last week attending
the agriculture meetings should seek out
the Rev. gentleman. Before calling on
Mr.. Howe, however. the Prof. singled
out one of the audience as having a
clerical mien and accosted him. The man
SO accosted was E. F. Hobson, and proud
of the idea that he had been mistaken for
Rev. Mr. Howe he became quite elated
and carried his head very high, so highiu
