THE FARMERS.

Applied For.

! Applied For.
The farmers of Union should
send in at once their applications
for the Farmers Institute. The
applications may be sent to j. N.
Harper, Clemson College, and
must be in by June 9Th, in order
that the schedule may be pre-
pared.
This institute means a visit to
the county of an agricultural car,
fitted up with all kinds of farm
ing apparatus, specimens of
plants, improved dairy methods,
etc. Lectures will be given by
experts on all subjects that per-
tain to farming. It behooves
the farmers of Union County to
get this car here, or at some
central point; so let them signify
the place desired, and agree, at
least fifteen of them, on one To-
cality.
Below is a circular letter to
