Those senatorial districts in Sc
curing a meeting for 1903 should cor
respond with the college at the earliest
possible date, so that arrangements can
be made for the meetings some time in
advance. Our staff OF instructors is linn
tied in number and since the institute
work is done by them without remunera-
ton. and in addition to their other reg
ular duties. Il is necessary that a sched-
ule OF meetings be carefully arranged for
in advance. 1t is the purpose of the farm
ers' institute department to cooperate
as closely as possible with the district
agricultural schools. and to this enc
meetings have been offered TO each of
these institutions during the past year.
Four Of the schools responded and meet
ings we're held at the Fourth District
school at Csrrollton, the Third District
school. at Americas; the First District
school. at Statesboro, and the Sixth Dis
trict school. at Barnesville.

vice may hg rendered much more efficient
and helpful 10 tine several communities in
the state. Correspondence with reference
