EDUCATION IN AGRICULTURE.

A farmer should be the best edu-
Gated man of his times. He mas
more responsibilities than the ordi-
nary man of affairs He must know
something about the land and its
elements of fertility. He should
know how to conserve soil moisture
and make two blades Of grass grow
where one has grown before The
farmer cannot expect TO succeed un-
less he studies the markets and pro
duees that which the people desire.
He must read the papers, visit the
cities, talk with politicians and ev-
cry other class of men and keep his
credit good in many places. The
ordinary man has single thought
requiring attention, while the far
mer has a train of thoughts.
Every year adds to the Importance
of the state college as an educa-
tional feature Ii is the place where
farm boys may be educated. There
is a regular appropriation for the
purpose of training students in all
the principles Of farming, gardening
an orchardng 1t Is the duty of the
faculty TO give instructions in all
those branches. And the college at
Pullman has reputation for being
thorough in the matter of educat-
ing agricultural students The teach
ers are Well qualified for the work
and take a pride in advocating agri-
culture al every possible emporium

The farmer Institutes. held In ev-
cry county throughout the state are
educational conventions The OBJ
ject OF these meetings is to help the
farmers in becoming more proficient
in the art Of cultivating the soil and
handling its products No one has
attained such nigh standing as to
be able TO retire and leave the
world because there is nothing more
TO learn. With the dissemination OF
agricultural literature and the in
crease of college facilities. there is
no reason why farmers should be ig-
norant of the principles underlying
success. Let The schools advance
and publications multiply until ev-
cry man in the land has modern
agricultural education
