Holly School of Agriculture.

Last Mondays meeting. though not
very well attended, was very interest
ing. The reports of observations made
by the chiefs Of the divisions Of Irriga-
ton. Preparation Of the Soil and Guilt
vation were to the point. and the alb
sentees missed considerable valuable
information.
Judging from the experience Of some
OF the members. it ia evident that de-
bate could be arranged. the question
being whether certain crops should be
given surface irrigation or planted ON
ridges and wa,ered between the rows.
Had that question been settled before.
it would have saved some Of our people
a lot Of hard work this epriag. The
school hopes TO be OF benefit by solving
just such problems.
The seeds and bulbs issued TO the
Floral division by the school will b,.
distributed to the members Of that di-
vision who are present at the next
meeting.
1t is hoped that there will be better
attendance at the next meeting, and
especially that all the chiefs of divisions
will be present.
