The farmers institute lately
held in this city attracted SO little
attention that the Tribune reporter
overlooked it entirely. Experience
demonstrates that these institutes
are most successful when held in
the smaller villages and if they do
any good commensurate with their
cost it is when held in the midst OF
the farmers homes.
