College of Agriculture.

The short course in agriculture is
now in session at Madison with an at
tendance of 295, an increase of APP
proximately 20 per cent. over the at
tendance IF last winter, and the col
lege is taxed to it's utmost to accomo-
date the large classes.
The short course has become one OF
the most popular courses in the uni
versity and full realization Of the
fact seems apparent that the young
man from the farm in order to pursue
his vocation successfully should be
trained with the same care as a doc
tor, lawyer or banker.
Since the organization OF the short
course in 1886, 1859 students have
awaited themselves of the opportunity
of attending; of this number 2O2 have
come from other states and 957 from
Wisconsin. Of the 295 in attendance
this winter, 81 are nonresident and
234 resident students.
Twelve states outside of Wisconsin
are represented in the attendance,
Illinois heading the list with rep
resentation of 33. The ten counties
of the state most largely represented,
with the attendance of each, are as
follows: Dane, 20; Rock, 1S; Mil
waukee, 10; Grant, II; Eau Claire
and Dodge, 10 each; La Crosse and
Walworth, each; jackson, Lafayette
and Trempealeau, 8 each.

was a grand lecture or women and
showed the place now occupied by
them. He traced the history of the
race from the Garden Of Eden. when

shaved condition during Pagan times.
until lifted up again by Christ. He
d. fined her duties and her glory, her
virtues and her powers Beautifully
be pictured the ideal of womanhood's
purity as exemplifed in the virgin
mother of Christ. Earnestly did he
deprecate the brakiug of the marriage
vows. His description of the nuns,
and the manner in which they took
the vows, becoming the bride of the
church, was very impressive also. 1t
was not only a lecture OF great in
terest, but also one to create marked
impression for good upon all his
listeners.-La Crosse Chronicle.
