Admiral Jouett. a lieutenant in the
early days OF the Civil War. captured
a fine prize through the growing of
cock? No?
Well, Jouett, In command of the
Montgomery, was cruising off the coast
of Louisiana out of sight OF land, when
one morning about O'Clock while
running through dense fog he dis.
tinctly heard rooster crow as he was
walking the deck with the officer OF
the midwatch.
In his inspection OF the vessel
Jouett had seen no poultry and had
reason TO believe that there was none
on board. However, 1t was some mo-
ments before the Significance of the
growing dawned upon him. Turning
to one Of the officers. he asked:
Are there any chickens on boardY
No. sir

Billy Bryan does not believe the
same way some of the designing

State do. Bryan says the admins
tration is not to blame for the
financial furry but that the high

ciers got exactly what was coming
to them. In this connection he
says the wages of sin is death, and
they died financially. The Demo-
cratic papers of the State under
moneyed influence as they are lay
II on the President, and thus is 1t
seen that they have different

A Short Course in .lgricuItuTe

A Short Course i'll Agriculture
A great many farmers when the
Importance of agricultural education
is pressed upon them, answer very
properly that they cannot go to col
lege because every respect
able college course Is TOO long; if
they had the inclination and the
time. the cost of a four year course
would forbid their trying to profit
by it. 1t hardly seems wise to scold
farmer, or any other man for not
doing what he has no time to do or
for not buying what he lacks the
money to buy.
Our College of Agriculture at
Morgantown has taken these facts
into consideration, and is preparing
to give in 4-week course such in
struction as can he given in short
time. The entire faculty of the col
lege of agriculture will be at the
service of the short-course students,
with a few we'll known specialists
from other, states among them Pres
ident Butterfield of the Massachu-
sets Agricultural College.
Our farmer readers who are inter-
ested in the progressive things of
their business should write to Prof.
T. C. Atkeson, Morgantown, w. Va,
