Winter Term at the A.
G. Closes Next Week
Many Prizes Are To Be Awarded in the Judging of
Live Stock - Other Demonstrations
Are to Be Held.

: This week practically marks the
close of the winter term at the Agri-
cultural college. Tuesday and Wednes-
day of next week will be devoted to
examinations and ON Wednesday even
ing will occur the graduation exercises
.or the farm husbandry class. All day
Thursday will be devoted to the stock
and grain judging contests and to the
demonstration in meat cutting.
The spring vacation, however, will
sbe very short one, extending only
from Thursday evening to Monday
morning, when the spring term will
begin.
There is one event that takes place
at the close of each winter term at
this college that is Of special interest
to all, and that is the contest held to
determine the winners of the prizes
offered for proficiency in judging live
stock. One hundred and sixty stu
dents are taking the work this winter
and they have been working diligently
to prepare themselves for the contest.
More zeal and rivalry have been mani
tested this year because Of the addi-
ton of several new prizes to the list
through the liberality of the breeders
of the state. The prizes consist of a.
gold medal donated as prize by the
college to the students from either
class showing the greatest proficiency
in judging all classes of animals, and

Drouth Years.
No period of eight years passes that
does not bring a crop failure for each
of the cereals and if farmers and
planters would make 1t a rule to hold
a large part of their crops each year
they would succeed in obtaining the
high prices that always come with the
crop failure years. The very large
circulation of my weather bulletins
has had some effect and more of the
crops, particularly cotton and corn, are
held over now than few years ago.
All crops do not usually fail the same
year. Wheat is often good when
corn fails and when cereal fails
north 1t is often good south.
When a drouth occurs on the high
lands it is usually wet in the low
lands and the reverse is true. The
Alleghanies and the ridge between the
Mississippi and Red river of the North
valleys. The valleys of those two riv-
ers constitute the low lands. If we
can calculate when drouth is due in
the low lands of the Mississippi valley
1t will be safe to predict wet weather
in the high lands at the same time.

in regard to the ability and devotion

toward the American people. In re-
gard to American abandonment of the
Islands, he further declares that such
action would plunge the people into
unspeakable calamities. None of the
people want that done, he says, except
the revolutionists. These are few but
blatant, so that, the American concep-
ton of their number and Importance

torious that these revolutionists are

RELIGIOUS NEWS NOTES

Inc most encouraging report yet re-
ceived from the Philippine islands is
that furnished by jeremiah T. Harry,
Catholic archbishop of Manila. He is
in this country for only about fort
night, on business connected with his
great missionary charge. He will then
freturn to his post, which he has been
occupying with consummate ability
since June, 1903. He naturally LAYS
special emphasis upon the religious
development of the islands and the
religious nature of the people, recog-
mixing that every development, to be
permanent and salutary, must have
religious foundation, and the hope for
the people for the people depends upon
the depth and ethical quality Of their
religious nature. Six million natives
|of the Philippines are Catholic Chris
tians. or the quality Of their religion
las it Is developing under the fostering
care of Catholic control according to
American ideas and in cooperation
with the American government the
archbishop says:
THE people are not only religious,
but deeply religious The attendance
lat the Sunday schools taxes the ca
pacity of the churches. Very few ma
tive families fail to have daily prayers
in common. The custom Of reading in
each family during Lent the passion of
the Lord in the vernacular is still
kept up. The effect of this solid re-
ligious training Is perceptible in the
remarkable purity of the girls, the
great se1f-control Of the MEN and boys,
the universally ready submission OF
all to parental authority. Their home
life Is very, very attractive. I am
well aware that persons who have
spent but short time in the Philip
pines have reflected severely upon the
natives, but over three years Of close
personal knowledge Of ali classes, in
their homes and intimate family reIa
.tions, make me positive OF the truth
or what | am saying
on the question OF the abandonment
iof the Philippines by the American
government, the archbishop makes a.
strong case from the religious point Of
view He says:
IT would be q burning disgrace.
Yes, disgrace, T want To use that word.
1T would be shame. Give me per-
mission TO state also, as my decided
opinion, that the brightest page In
