The Oregon Short Line is furnish
ing Professor French and his assist
ants two cars for use in holding far
mers' Institutes along it's line in Ida
no. This is the first work of the kind
taken up by the railroad in southern
Idaho. A similar trip was made by
the experiment station staff over the
Northern Pacific in northern Idaho
last summer. While this cooperation
on the part of the railroad is quite
new in the West, it has been carried
on in the East for several years, and
has proven very successful in carry
ing information regarding improved
methods of agriculture to the people
who were directly engaged in this in
dustry.
The cars used for this purpose in
southern Idaho will, according to the
Boise Statesman, be equipped with
demonstration material such as dairy
apparatus, including a milking ma
chine in operation, spraying apparatus
for fruit trees, exhibits of grains and
grasses and other agricultural pro-
ducts and charts to illustrate lee
lures given by the speakers on the
various topics pertaining to farm life.
One of the interesting and helpful
features which will be seen in an
agricultural library of 100 books Sc
lected for the benefit of those who are
looking for such helps on the farm.
This library will include a list of bull
letins and pamphlets which are avail
able in the department of agriculture
at Washington, and in the experiment
station at Moscow. The following
itinerary has been arranged in coop
Grafton with the general passenger
department of the Short Line for the
trip. Further advertising matter will
be sent out from time to time, before
the dates mentioned.
