or the elation of prosperity alone.
AS Mr.. Homer Stiers, who was
slated to lead the discussion on
this topic, was absent, Mr.. Dobie,
the second speaker, was intro
duced, after pleasing selection
by the quartette.
Mr.. Dobie's remarks on the sub
ject of "Noxious Weeds could
not fail to be helpful. If there is
one evil in all the science of farm
ing that requires the most incess-
ant, persistent care to combat, it
is weeds. In the light of progress
slve researches, many of the plants
formerly regarded as weeds have
become valuable agriculturally,
but hosts of them remain, both
unsightly and unhealthful. The
most successful method yet found
of eradicating the pests is simply
to cut them off before they can
form leaves, for leaves are their
lungs. This requires work-hard
and constant, but it is the only
salvation, especially from the
perennials, such as as milk weed,
night shade, etc. Mr.. Dobie's
talk was on subject close to the
farmers, but comparatively unex-
plored, and ought to awaken in.
hterest in scientific methods of ex.
termination.
Another selection by the ladies
, quartette concluded the morning
session.
The attendance in the Afternoon
was much improved, despite tn,
stormy weather. Mr.. Harsl
opened the program with an ad
dress on "Raising Sheep for Pro
fit. Mr.. Harsh's experience has
of course, been in Stark county
but he gave some excellent advice
to the sheep-raisers of Hooking
especially on the production o
hot house lambs for the eastern
market, and wool values. He rec
commended the introduction of tn
Spanish-M -Merino breeds for mutton
producing purposes, adding tina
the advanced prices of mutton i
recent years jusrifies some troubl
and expense in that direction
Questions by w. w. Marks an
others regarding treatment fo
various ailments of sheep elicite
from Mr.. Harsh some yaluabl
points on that subject.

tion by Mrs. Silverthorn, and
plantation medley by the qua
ltette, the president announced I'll

FARMERS INSTITUTE

The annual meeting of the
Hooking County Farmers Insti-
tute was convened in Rempers
Opera House for its first session,
last Friday morning. The rain
and elect of the night before had
rendered roads almost impossible,
and the attendance was very slen-
der for the opening meeting, only
sixteen persons being present when
called to order. This weather
fate seems to pursue the Hooking
County Institute; for the past two
or three years the conventions
have been opened under similar
disheartening conditions. In the
evening, however, a fair crowd,
mostly Of town people, were in at
tendance.
No effort was spared, either by
the officers, T. j. Brown, Presi.
dent, and Chas. j. Wright, Secre-
tary, or by the State speakers, to
render the Institute successful

Brown that the Court House would

j. l.. Dobie, of Anglaize county
and D. d. Harsh, of Minerva
Stark county. Both are gentleme
of wide practical experience i
everything connected with farm
ing, and filled their part of tn
program in very satlsfactor
manner. They arrived in Loga

following as committee on nomina-
tions: Messrs. Will Nixon, II.
w. Glove, John Krinn, and George
Marks.
"Problems of Soil Texture and
Fertility" by Mr.. Dobie, was the
next number. 1t is impossible to
give even a synopsis of this inter-
esting and valuable address. The
speaker dealt with the subjects of
drainage, fertilizing and croprota-
tion in n manner that showed his
enthusiasm arose from actual
knowledge produced by expert
ence. He awakened an interest
in his hearers minds that ought
to be satisfied only with eXhaus-
tive reading and research along
the lines he suggested. His blunt
assertion that "The day is past
when any old fool can farm" was
sober truth, viewed In the light of
up-to-date and progressive science.
Mrs. Robert Longstreth read an
excellent paper, by request, on
"The Lewis and Clarke Expedi-
tion." The paper had been pre-
pared for meeting of the D. "A
r., but was thought suitable fol
this occasion, and was well re-
ceived.
After musical selection, ad'
journment was made till evening

session of the New Plymouth In
stitute, which is reported success
in every way. This ladies quar-
tette was engaged for the Insti-
tlIte here year ago, and their re-
turn speaks volumes for their pop
ularity in Logan. Their selections
were one and all admirable, and
the singers themselves are in such
perfect harmony that their songs
cannot fail to be we'll received.
Promptly at 9:30, Friday morn
ing, President Brown called the
Institute to order. An invocation
by Rev. j. F. Williams opened the
meeting. Mr.. Brown then ad-
dressed his limited audience in a
few well-chosen words, introduce
ing the first speaker, Mr.. Harsh.
The comparison made by Mr..
Brown of the present attendance
with the Biblical marriage feast
to which the invited guests failed
; to come, was happy one. Mr..
Harsh gave an instructive talk on
the subject of "Labor Without
Price, The basis of his remarks
is the fact that the farmer alone,
of all business men, cannot figure
on profit or loss more than short
time ahead. He labors without
knowing what the price will be
For this reason, many IF the farm
boys leave the country and go tc

and can be counted on. The best
of them, however, eventually fins

Home" His arguments in favor
of his side of the question were
incontrovertible, and his pictures
of happy farm life were well
drawn and applied. A vocal
selection by Mrs. Blasius, accom-
panied on the piano by Mrs, G. K.
Bowen, received the usual enthusi-
astic applause accorded this talent
! ed singer. She was followed by
, Judge o. w. H. Wright, in an ad-
dress that certainly commended
itself to his audience by the union
of good stories, recollections and
congratulations with which the
genial judge moved them. After
short and concise address by Mr..
Dobie, on "Ideals and Realities of
Life" Judge Bright rose as
farmer among his fellows, and
made some interesting remarks
along general lines. This closed
the program for the day, and the
meeting was adjourned till the
following morning.
Saturdays session was opened
at 8 40 a. m. by the quartette,
followed by prayer by Rev. Will
liams. Mr.. Dobie then spoke on
"Some Objects of Cultivation.
We regret that we are anable to
give even condensed account of
this and the following admirable
addresses, but space forbids. We
are sure that all who heard them,
especially the farmers, will feel a
J keen interest in investigating at
large the subjects mentioned. Mr..
Dobie spoke again in the after
noon on "Intensive Farming. Mr..
Harsh's subjects for the day were
"The Farm Horse and how to
Produce Him." and "Creameries, u
both of which were very interest
ing and instructive.
The afternoon was largely taken
up with music and recitations, anG
general rounding-up of the bust
ness of the Institute. Mrs. Franz
l Rauch, of Nelsonville, sang "Ir
g Old Madrid" and "May-Time.'
Mrs. Blasius, by special request
sang "The Holy City," and for al
encore rendered the delightful
little Japanese Love-Song." Mis-
