Association will hold its meeting and
corn show at Mitchell on December
18th, 10Th and 10th. We have ar
ranged for the services OF Prof. A. N.
Hume of the Illinois College OF Agri-
culture, assisted by Prof. Cole of the
South Dakota College Of Agriculture,
to conduct during the 18th and 10Th
a corn school for farmers. Every
farmer attending, who desires so to
do, will be a member of the class, and
the time will be devoted to studying
types and kinds of corn most profit
able to be raised in this state, to the
selection. care and testing of the seed
and to the preparation of the seed
bed and cultivation of the crop.
These corr schools are held very ex-
tensively in Iowa, Nebraska, and in
Ill, and have been a great assistance
in bringing corn to the front in those
states. This instruction will be free
to all farmers who will attend and we
hope for a large attendance during
the entire meeting.
Owing to the fact that we were
able to procure the services OF Prof,
Hume, l have assumed the response.
