WINTER SCHOOL IN SESSION
Fifty Men Enrolled. Many States and For
Countries are Represented.

| The Winter School for Farm
ers opened in Washington State
college Tuesday morning, with
bright prospects for one of the
best terms ever held. There were
Just 40 men enrolled the first day
and 10 more came in the next two
days, making 90 at the end of the
third day A study of the list of
students enrolled shows that this
school has gained an enviable rep
Entation over wide scope of coun-
try, and that its work is being felt
Feven IN foreign lands. Horticul
ture is among the most popular
of the courses, and more than half
OF those enrolled are taking this
course.
Prof. w. S. Thornber, head of
the department Of horticulture.
gives out the following statement:
We now have 30 students here
IN our short courses in general.
Is OF which are taking the horti
cultural work, Is general agricul-
ture and I. in general dairy work.
There are three directly from Eng.
land attending the horticultural
course, six from British Columbia,
thus making a total of 9 British
land Canadian students in the de,
Ipartment of horticulture at the
present time.
In IA recent conversation
Mr. w. II. Sparks Of KEITH
ne tells me that Mr. W. G
a special horticultural ST
our short course last y
without aGy previous hor
training Wha, or, after
tine cEc weck curse
home, bougnt sci 3f1ng app,
and scions and made 10000 ap
pie tree gratis, planted and cared
for them himself, and has @now
200 first class -year-old apple
trees which are easily worth from
II 900 to 81 500 with the price
that nursery stock is selling at the
present time This illustrates in a
very practical manner how prac-
teal our course in horticulture is,
when it is possible for an unexpe-
Irlenced man to become proficient
enough even in two weeks time to
go home and grow his own trees
and succeed so remarkably well
