opened yesterday morning at the court
house for a two days session. There
we're about 500 persons present, most of
whom were farmers.
The first number on the program was
a paper by H. d. odell on potato growing.
He not only went into the matter Of
varieties, but gave a description of the
soil. cultivation and other things neces-
sary to a profitable production of the
tubers. He said that large per cent Of
the potatoes used in Beatrice last season
were shipped in at cost of about $4,000
He believes all of these could have been
probably grown at home.
A paper on grasses by F. c. Croker of
Filley was read and discussed at length
by A. II. Kidd, j. l.. Rhodes. w. L. ozman
and others. The discussion was confined
to no particular variety, but included all
Of the grasses grown here.
The afternoon was devoted to the judg-
ing of seed corn by Prof. Zook of the
state farm. His lecture was highly in
teresting and instructive. Feeding hogs
and cattle was the subject of Prof. II. r.
Smith of the state farm. He has the
reputation of being the most scientific
feeder west of the Mississippi river, hav-
ing been the winner in the great exhibits
with the products of the state farm.
Having the farm pay was discussed in
all its bearings by Prof. e. w. Hunt
He emphasized the necessity of keeping
up the fertility of the soil. No evening
session was held on account of the COM
mercial club banquet.
Prizes were awarded in the different
classes of corn and potatoes as follows:
White Corn-H. d. Odell, first; John
Freriehs. second; Glen Wheeler, third;
