MRS. ANN DALE DEAD.
Well Known Lady Passes Away at Her
Home Gu Park Avenue This Morning.

Mrs. Ann Dale, we'll known lady of
the city, and the widow of the late
John Dale, died at an early hour last
Saturday at her home on Park avenue.
The deceased had been an invalid for
some time and during the last few
weeks she has been suffering with
creeping paralysis.
Mrs. Ann Lewis Dale was 90 years
of age. She was born in England
November 10th, 1883. While still in
her childhood death removed both her
father and mother and short time
later she came with friends from Eng
land to this country, settling in Keno
sha. Here short time later she was
united in marriage to John Dale. For
some time Mr.. and Mrs. Dale lived in
the town of Brighton, but many years
ago they removed TO Kenosha and
took up their residence at the home
stead on Park avenue, where Mrs.
Da1e's death occurred.
The deceased was of a kind and low
ing disposition and had many friends
in Kenosha who will greatly mourn
her death. Four daughters and two
sons survive. They are: Mrs. Grace
Young, John Dale, Thomas Dale,
Mary E. Dale, Mrs. Charles H. Good
man and Miss Lydia E. Dale, all of
this city.

DIED AT HIS POST.
Joseph E. Hoffman Well Know in This City
Expires While on Duty.

Many railroad men in Kenosha will
hear with great sorrow of the death
of Joseph Hoffman, a former engineer
on the Northwestern road. Hoffman
was employed as a passenger engineer
on the Illinois Central road, and his
life went out last evening with his
hand on the throttle of the locomotive
which pulled the night express out of
Chicago toward Freeport, Ill.
The fireman who was in the cab
with Hoffman stated that the engineer
was not feeling we'll when the train
left the station, and that just as the
train pulled out he expressed desire
to make the run on time, on account of
the fact that some of his family were
i'll. This little bit of anxious talk in
regard to his family was the last words
of the engineer.
The train crept on, and Hoffman sat
silently on his cushioned seat. He
failed to see the usual signals when
nearing the city, and the firemen
looked across to him in the cab. "Joe!"
he called, whats the matter, old
man, Amt you feeling we11?'
There came no answer. The train
was stopped, and Hoffman's body was
taken tx to Chicago. It is thought
that death was due to heart disease.

FARMERS INSTITUTE.
Kenosha Farmers Gather at Salem to Dis
cuss Practical Problems in Farm Life

The Farmers Institute for Kenosha
county convened at Salem Friday
and Notwithstanding the bad condition
of the roads large crowd turned out
to attend the opening sessions. The
institute is being conducted by Charles
Thorp, one of the best posted institute
men in the state, and the topics select
ed for the consideration of the farmers
were of more than usual interest.
The first session was held Thursday
morning and the subjects were entered
into in a way that shows that the meet
will be of great benefit to the farmers
of the county. The first subject taken
up was a discussion of Fertilizers, by
H. M. Cu1berson; this was followed by
an interesting talk by Conductor
Thorp on the subject of proper cultiva-
ton. This paper caused quite an ex-
tended discussion in which nearly all
the farmers in attendance took part.
The last paper of the morning session
was a paper on the subject Beef" by
George Wy1ey.
AT noon the people retired to the
basement of the M. E. church, where a
| splendid dinner was served by the
ladies of the church.
In the afternoon the meeting was
opened by discussion of sheep and
the raising of sheep in this county, by
Superintendent George McKerrow;
and this was followed by similar dis
cussion of the raising of hogs, led by
George Wy1ie. The afternoon pro-
gram was concluded by discussion of
Economic Feeding" which proved to
be one of the most interesting subjects
on the program.
In the evening farm subjects were
laid aside and a musical and literary
entertainment was given at the cherch
by local favorites.
During the evening session Supt.
Griffith delivered a splendid address on
the subject of education. He told of
the fine condition of the KenOsha
county schools and urged that the
school patrons take a greater interest
in the work of the teachers and pupils.
The evening session ended with dis
custom of the subject Farmers and
Education led by Mr.. Cu1berson,
This morning the regular work of
the institute was continued. This af-
ternoon the main event of the meeting
was announced, viz: lecture by State
Superintendent L. D. Harvey on the
subject, agriculture in Our Schools. -

miller, t'other day: jeff [ says, I'm

let's stop an think this question over.
The Beers don't know what liberty is,
l says. They air fanatic to certain
extent. They're bull-headed, an be-
hind the times. I honestly think if
England licks ZEN ii would be a good
thing fer the Beers themselves an the
country in general. It would mean re-
ligious liberty, an social liberty an en-
lightenment in any way you want to
look at it. Amt that the truth, Jeff?
I says. That's the truth, JIM he
says. 4 raley believe myself it would
be good thing if England would whip
'em, but, by George, Jim, Pm goin' to
yell fer the Beers, anyway! Jist why
Jeff'H yell fer 'em don't know. It's
the underdog speerit, l suppose. 1t
can't be sympathy fer if you sympa-
thize with a Teller you want to see
him better his condition, an if Jeff
hopes they'll win it's plain he don't
want to see 'em do that. It's dern
queer thing. However, I'm jist like

SUGGESTS NEW PLAN
State Superintendent Harvey Dis
cusses Education and Agriculture
at the Farmers Institute.
TO TEAcHFARMING IN SCHOOLS

The State superintendent is in Favor of
Extending the Teaching of the Science
of Agriculture in All the Country
Schools Also open Departments
IN Which the Young Ladies Gould Learn
How to Cook and Attend to House Work.
State, superintendent L. D. Harvey
was the guest of Kenosha county Fri
| day and his address at the Farmers
Institute Friday afternoon was the
| feature of the day. The room in which
| the institute was held was packed and
and it is estimated that fully FIVE hun
dred people were present to greet the
state official and to heartily applaud
his sentiments. The subject chosen
by Mr.. Harvey for his address was
''Agricu1ture in Our Schools The
entire speech was very interesting, but
some of the matters taken up will be
the cause of much discussion among
the educators of the state.
In speaking of the subject he said
that the school of agriculture in con-
nection with the State University was
one of the best departments in the
institution and it's effects were being
plainly shown in the improvement of
the agriculture in all parts of the state.
The people have learned that there is
more in farming than simply ti1ling
the soil, and the study of agriculture
in the schools of the state fill a long
felt want. The educated farmer is no
| longer rarity, but leader.
But the part of Mr.. Harvey's address
that attracted special attention was
his announcement that he was in ia
vor of teaching agriculture, not only
in the State University, but in every
county school in the State. Of course
in this general plan for the education
of the farmer no effort should be made
to teach him the sciences as would be
taught in the University, but rather to
arrange a course which will make him
teach him the difference between the
different grains and their value as
crops. In this connection Mr.. Harvey
thought that a practical education
should also be arranged for the girls of
the school. He said that it was per-
fect1y proper to teach them the COM
mon branches, the sciences, art and
! literature, but they should also learn
to be housewives, to cook a meal and
to do the duties of the home.
Of course the practical plan of edu-
cation, as outlined by Supt. Harvey,
was the source of interesting discus
sion and it will undoubtedly at no dis
tant time result in a revolution of the
systems of teaching in the schools of
the county. Supt. Griffith has always
been in favor of practical teaching
and he will be. glad to endorse the plan
proposed by his superior officer.
In late years the farm has lost it's
dignity and the only way to keep the
farmer boy on the farm is to teach him
that farm duties are as worthy of his
honest efforts as the duties in any
other walk in life.
The comments heard on the streets
today show that the speech of Mr..
Harvey has set the people thinking
and results may be expected. Any
experiment of the teaching of practi-
cal agriculture in the schools of the
county will be watched with great
great interest.
