tute and the same will be held on
Friday and Saturday, March 18th and
10Th. The sessions will be held at the
opera house, which will be secured by
the business men of Princeton for the
purpose. &c. A. Jack and Clerk of
Court Briggs. have been in CORES
pondence for some time with O., G.
Gregg and DR.. J. G. Curryer, who
havelcharge of the institute work, and
they were notified this week that the
dates named had been set for the insti-
tute at this place. The Minnesota,
farmers institutes are in great demand
all over the State, and are becoming
very popular, because they are so prac-
tical and of so much benefit to the
farmers, SO that any town that secures
9 tWo-days session of the institute is
really fortunate. The Institutes that
have been held at Princeton have
always been we'll attended and a great
success, and both Mr.. Gregg and
DR.. Curryer >realize this fact. Mr..
Gregg in letter to Mr.. Jack not long
since, stated that he had received a
letter from q farmer who had attended
oneof the Princeton Institutes and the
farmer said that in one season he had
made 81 900 clear over and above what
he would have made had he not follow
ed the instruction of the institute work.
This is only one instance of where
farmers have been benefited. -.
Prof Gregg, whose work in Mime
sofa is SO greatly appreciated, has been
asked to 60 to New York State to
deliver a series of lectures at farmers
Institutes in that State, and he may
not be able to be present at the Prince

OF good lecturers on all farm topics.
Numbered among the corps of institute
instructors are such men as A. c..

famous clover and tillage expert, en-
Eghtens farmers on how to help run
down. land, and the proper method of

two weeks ago. Mrs. Wilcox speaks
on household economy for the farmers

there will be- enough good takers and
entertainers to make the session very
interesting and highly profitable.
