READING FOR FARMERS.
The Unfversity Extension Movement
Among Agriculturists.

The Secretary OF Agriculture has received
from Liberty Hyde Bailey, professor of
! horticulture in Cornell University, an artI-
Gle on farmers reading courses. which 1t is
proposed to publish as farmers bulletin
| for gratuitous distribution. Prof. Bailey
| 1t is said, is prominently Identified
with the university extension work in agri-
culture. He says in part:
Among the agencies for diffusing knowl-
| edge and promoting enthusiasm among
| farmers. the reading course has come to
| be an important factor. In the movement
! for the education of the people, the estab-
| lishing Of colleges for farmers was import
ant and far-reachirg. We are now feel
ing, however, that 1t is not enough that
| colleges be maintained for those who desire
to partonize them. Those who cannot or
| who will not come to colleges, must be
reached. Education is seized Of the mission-
ary spirit. and this spirit is that impulse
which passes under the general name OF
| university extension
mo apology is needed for the extension
! movement; yet. there are those who say
! that persons who will not make the effort
| to learn OF their own volition, should be
| left in ignorance. Every farmer should
| be awakened.
suppose ii will never be possible to
| discover which was the very first reading
| course movement for farmers. One cannot
! read far into the history of the agTicul-
| tural colleges without finding germs of
! the idea. The desire that farmers be given
! more and better reading matter came into
being with educators many years ago.
But many farmers do not go to CO lege and
| are not touched by it, and SO much new
| knowledge has come into the farmers
| horizon that some special machinery is
| needed to carry something OF the college
| influence to the farm. This machinery
| embraces itinerant lectures and school
bulletins and reading courses.
las early as 1882 President James Mills.
| OF the Agricultural College of Ontario,
outlined reading course for farmers.
! The Council of Agriculture and Arts for
the province co-operated in the enterprise.
| Certificates were offered to those complet-
ing the required course of reading"
After reviewing the educational work
done in several of the States for farmers,
Prof. Bailey says:
Two distinct ideas are represented in
the reading courses which have been tried.
The older, or Chautauqua- Pennsylvania
/ idea, is that Of a definite prescribed, Sc T.
limited. technical correspondence curricu-
, lum, the completion of which is signalized
by certificate or diploma. The other, or
Cornell idea, is that of a flexible, nom
limited untechnical reading course in
| which there is no system Of counts and
which does not lead to certificatory hon.
ors The former is intensive. II is adapt
ed to the few. The latter is elementary.
1t is adapted to the many. Each is in
complete. The ideal reading course sys-
tenn is that which joins the two IDEAS Its
general work is to touch and awaken ev-
cry farmer. particularly every poor farmer.

A coster named Edward Leary who was in

taste to dress himself in a khaki tunic of the

magistrates remarks called forth a voiiey of ap-
plause from the public at the back of the court
room. Leary WAS fined 10 shillings or seven days.
Probably he had no intention OF ridiculing sol.

There is renewed evidence that the navy
ring conspirators would like tc get Rear
Admiral Schley before a packed court be-
fore Congress can have the chance to be-
gin an investigation of the Long -Crowrin-
shield Sampson game. What the American
people think of the victor of
Santiago was shown at the Met
ropolitan Opera House. New York,
last night. What they think OF Sampson
has been in evidence on several public oc-
easions. What they think of Long and his
coadjutors. those persons can easily ascer-
iain by exposing themselves in the same
way. We do not think that Mr.. Mckinley
would consider it good politics. to estab-
iish Sampson Relief Commission just at
this time. There are too many people Of
influence and popularity loaded for exactly
such an opening.

MCst Americans VIII remember thai af.er
BeEedios Arnold bolted the American party
of independence On a certain historical
occasion, he was rewarded for his treason
by an appointment as a brigadizr general in
the British army. We are naturally re-
minded of the episode on reading that the
former Democrat William b. Bynum has
been 2ppointsd one of the Appraisers OF the
Fort of New York by a Republican Presi-
dent. Bynum. though not exactly in the
way Arnold did, bcltad his party for gold"
As Democrat he. of course, was once al
opponent of the Chinese wall tariff policy OF
Mr.. Mckinley. But il is easy to swallow
a gnat after digesting a camel. He will
1ow bend his energies to helping in the en-
iorcemanI CT the most oppressive and in-
famous bit of fiscal legislation in the an
mails OF civilization. His case only goes to
illustrate the good fortune of the Demo
cratic organization in being able to re-
gurgitate persons of that kind in 1895.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Wheat Opened In spiritless Manner
On Chicago Board of Trade.

Chicago, Oct S0-Wheat opened in a
tame and spiritless manner. and through
out the session almost an entire lack of
interest was evident. There was nothing
in the situation TO encourage either buy
ing or selling and prices slowly but
steadily deprecated. owing mainly TO
lack OF support. The market kept Just q.
shade above put figure until the end of
the session, the range being only sc,
when covering by a few shorts started q
slight rally and the market closed barely
steady. December opened a shade lower
at 697sd7Gc, sold sparingly at Zoe, declined
TO 6Sssc, and closed with buyers at $3.50
Zoe. Chicago received pa cars. sixteen OF
which graded contract, The visible sup
ply increased Less 900 bushels, which
expected, WAS enough to exert a slight
bearish influence. Worlds shipments TO
Europe during the week were 1854 900
bushels. against s. 475.000 bushels the same
bushels in excess of European weekly
requirements. Atlantic port clearances of
wheat and flour equaled 10000 bushels.
Cash demand here very slow.
Corn was active but rather steady. A
poor cash demand, coupled with heavy
receipts and predictions of an increased
movement in the near future owing to
perfect weather, encouraged liquidation,
under which the market gradually yield
ed until near the c4oSs. when a partial
recovery took place on covering. Decem-
Der closed at $3.50.
A good shipping demand and buying by
elevator interests steadied bats. Specu-
latiVe trading was light throughout the
session. December closed at 221Hc.
Fear Of a shortage in January pork ana
generous buying by packers strengthened
provisions early. but on the bulge liquida-
lion became heavy and the gain was
nearly all lost. January pork closed &c
higher; lard and ribs unchanged.
The leading futures ranged as follows;

QUIET CAMPAIGN.
Political Fight Being conducte'
Without Public Meetings.

The present city campaign is one OF
the quietest in the history of the city,
the only thing to remind one of the
close proximity of election being the
ever present candidate hunting Tor
votes.
At both Democratic and Republican
headquarters but little is doing, that OF
the Democrats presenting the more AMI
mated appearance. Both chairmen pro-
fess the utmost confidence in the re-
suit of the election, although an I'M
dercurrent of nervousness is discern
able among the Republicans While the
Democrats are wearing q satlSIled
smile betokening satisfaction at the
trend of things.
SO far no arrangements have neen
made for public meetings by either
party, and it will likely be the latter
part of the week before anything is
done in that line.
On the other hand, there is great
deal being done in secret. Candidates
and their friends are making house
to house canvass exhorting the people
to vote for this or that candidate and
perfecting precinct organizations.
There seems to be an unusually disin-
terested feeling among the voters re-
garding registration. This apathy is
alarming the Democrats, as 40 full
registration would greatly enhance
their chances of victory. Today is the
last day to get your name on the regis
tration books, and all who are not
registered by 8 o'clock this evening
will not be allowed to vote.
