MUCH GOOD ACCOMPLISHED
Farmers Institute at Monmouth VIII
Result in Creamery Being
Established There.

The first of the proposed series oil
horticultural institutes was held in
Monmouth last Friday and Saturday,
and should the success of the ones
which are to follow be equal to that'of
this first one, their benefit to Polk
County will be immeasurably great.
Many men OF note in horticultural
matters were present, and their
addresses were of great practical value
to the farmers who attended. Among
the important addresses delivered
during the meeting were: Pears"
President W. K. Newell, of the State
Board of Horticulture; Small
Fruits" Professor Lewis, of 0. A. G..
Cherries" J. R. Shepard, of Salem
"Walnuts," Fred Groner, of Hills
boro; Strawberries" A. J. Shipley.
Of Monmouth; "What Horticulture
Will Do For Monmouth" H. M. Will
Hanson, secretary of the State Board
of Horticulture.
In addition to these helpful and
instructive addresses on matters per-
tanning to horticulture, DR.. James
Withycombe spoke on 'Stock and
Dairy Farming;" Professor Bradley,
of Q. A. c., on Soils" and President
Kerr on the "Value and Influence of
Industrial Education"
AS direct and important result of
this Institute dairying has been given
a powerful Impetus in Monmouth, and
already sufficient stock has been sub
scribed to insure the installing of a |
creamery in that city. 1t is expected
that this new enterprise for Monmouth |
will soon be in operation.
Institutes similar to this one will be
held in Dallas, Airlie, Perrydale, and |
other towns of Polk County in future,
and great and far reaching benefit is
expected to result from them.

BY DEAN COLLINS.

Ye sons Of men, sit up and note
How earth has cycled round the sun
Until our jolly panic year
It's shaky course hath we'll nigh run
And now, upon glad New Years Day
10 swearing off we turn once more
And lay each little vice away,
AS we have done in years before.
Go shake the moth-balls from your
robe
That snowy mantle, old and quaint
And shine your little halo up,
Ill you appear a solemn saint.
This is the season Of the year
When all our sins we sweetly doff,
And for a short, sad day enjoy
The harmless sport Of swearing off.
Beneath its load, from sun to sun,
The burdened er-wagon creaks
And maids, by sharp compunction
stirred,
Wash the fair peach bloom from
their cheeks.
The semi-colored meerschaum, too
Vile trap for filthy nicotine
Tossed from the study window lies,
10 bleach among the herbage green
Yet as the evening shades approach,
Down to the earth they swiftly
plump
The motley crew that lately rode
That truck symbolic of the pump.
And where all day the ruddy bloom
Like peaches was not seen at all,
Refulgently it flames once more,
vi AL
All, see! Who creeps on hands and
knees
Among the frosted herbage white?
he seeks his cast-off meerschaum
pipe
In the dim watches of the night.
\ long deep sigh of sweet relief
Resounds throughout the haunts of
men;
\ second day dawns on the world,
And we have all sworn on again.

fans who arrived late were disappointed
when they found that the newcomer had
already performed.
Smith and Graham are suffering from
sore arms. The Nationals are certainly
in bad way for pitchers.
The new pitcher got a great reception
when he went into the field. After each
inning he was forced to don his cap.
Jack Warner may be unable to catch
again for two or three weeks. He suf-
fered a double dislocation of a finger on
his right hand, when a foul from Robes
bat hit his digit in the last Chicago
game.
All Of the coaching that Johnson has
received since coming to Washington has
been from Jack Warner. Cantillon had
planned to have the veteran catch the
youngster but Warmers injury upset the
plans, so Heydon had to do the backstop-
ping
The first thing the new screen at the
end of the bleachers did was to rob
George Mil Of a home run. He smashed

Of the Nationals left Galveston last night
and is expected TO report Monday.
Block has been catching on the Calves
ton team for three years. Previous 10
going 20 Texas he was with CantlIon at
Milwaukee and was considered a reliable
backstop ar that time. When the Wash
iugton manager saw the player in action
at Galveston last spring he noted a de-
cided improvement and framed up deal
with the manager Of the club so that
Washington could get the player in case
any OF the Washington backstops should
get injured. AS soon rs the seriousness
Of Jack Warmers injury became known
yesterday, word was sent to Galveston to
rush Block on to Washington
The new catcher is Of medium height
is well built and weighs about I60 pounds
He has a good batting and fielding record,
and is an especially coed thrower.
Warner may be oIt Of the game for
two or three weeks. as a finger on his
right hand has double dislocation be-
sides being badly split. AS Blankenship
