Agriculture in A. & M.
College.

Col. r. I. Miner, president of the
A. g. M. College of Texas, expects the
largest enrolment next session in the
two year course in agriculture, that
has ever been shown.
Young men over eigteen years of age
are admitted to this course without
examination, if in the Judgment of the
president of the college, they are
qualified to do satisfactory work in
the studies required in this course.
The two-courses in agriculture is
intended for young men who wish to
spend one or Two years in peparing to
go backto the farm and apply successful
ly all of the more important scientific
methods of farming which have been
worked in recent years. To this end
the course is made highly practical
and technical, including in abbreviat-
ed form most of the technical work re.
quired in the four-year course. Stud
ents who have carried the required
amount of work for two years and
have had approved farm experience
will be given a certificate showing the
work done.
1t is course established in the last
two years, and is for those who cannot
afford to devote four years to the full
course. The instruction in the course is
thorough and the young man who COM
pletes it is well equipped when he finish
es in farm crops, soils, irrigation and
drainage, dairying, farm machinery,
farm equipment and management, ele-
ments of horticulture, nursery methods,
truckg ardening orchards, small fruits,
and plant breeding; judging of animals
veterinary science and surgery, and SUI
ficient mechanical engineering to allow
him to handle his own mechanics on the
farm. He takes also some chemistry,
some botany and some English. So far
this course has been very successful. a
large number OF young men are now tax
ing the two-year course, and quite q
number finished last session. Next year
it is confidently believed there will be Il
| big increase in those who come for the
two years. In fact Secretary A. b.
Wilcox is now enrolling names of those
who have written for information on the
subject.
The real object of this instruction is
to equip young men for real farm work,
to make more farmers, carrying out the
real original purpose OF the A. & M. Col
lege OF Texas.

Women Are in 204 Differ
ent Positions.

OF the occupations distinguished by
the census bureau in classifying the
returns of 1900, women were engaged
in all but nine. There were no women
soldiers, sailors, firemen in fire de-
partments, street-car drivers. There
were two motormen, telephone or tel
egraph linemen or apprentices or
helpers to steam boilermakers and
brass workers. There were, however,
five women pilots, ten steam railroad
baggagemen, thirty-one brakemen,
twenty-six switchmen and yardmen
and aagmen, six ship carpenters, two
roofers and skaters, 1876 blacksmiths,
sos machinists, eight boiiermakers,
thirty-one charcoal and coke and lime
burners and eleven wellborers. To
day, every fifth woman in the United
States is Breadwinner, and the ratio

ease was discovered by the Bur-
eau Of Animal industry a few
years ago, and this Bureau has,
since endeavored to interest all
State governments III its produce

as a result of the agitation and
demonstration OF the great value,
OF the serum, provided Iunds Tor
the purpose, IN some instances as
much as eight to ten thousand
dollars have been appropriated.
The serum is comparatively cost
" to produce, and one State makes
charge Of fifty cents for serum
enough to protect $50 pound

cure hog cholera than vaccination
will cure smallpox, but it will pre-
vent it. Given a drove of hogs
which are dying OF cholera two
or three day, the Veterinarian
can, by injecting the proper dose
under the skin. check the deaths
in a few days Or. given a drove
in which hog cholera does not
exist. the drove can be protected
| absolutely against infection Such
protected hogs can live with. and
| can eat the carcasses of hogs dead
from cholera without contracting
the disease. They are absolutely
immune. As the Bureau OF AMI
NAL Industry could not, for OBJ
vious reasons. undertake to fur
nish the various States with the
serum, representatives OF the
States are invited to witness the
method OF its production at the
hog cholera farm near Ames,
Iowa. and were furnished enough
virulent hog cholera virus to start
serum production. The Delaware
State Board OF Agriculture sent
its veterinarian to witness these
demonstrations. and he has since
successfully produced the serum
at the Delaware College Experi,

RED WARRIORS
SHIPPING RECORD

Since the Duluth people have been
operating the Red Warrior Mining
eompanys property in Star district,
Beaver county, they have taken out and
sent 10 market % cars of ore, totalling
$500 TONS sampling rs per cent lead,
Is ounces silver and - per cent iron.
W. j. Merritt has been experimenting
these operations, and Is naturally
proud OF his record. The ore occur
renee is principally in assures and
bedded veins making off into the lime
stone country rock.
Among the principal workings is a
500-foOt vertical shaft, with levels
from the lee. 200, 500 and 500-fOOt sta
uons. A crOsscut al a distance of 100
feet from the 1O0-fOOt level is in the
ore body. and the vein is again cut in
the shaft at the 200 station. On the
500-toOt level il is cut at a distance
OF l3O feet from the station. The deep
est working is at point 346 feet in
the drift from the 500 level. The face
OF this crOsscut indicates that il is in
close proximity 10 the ore bearing
channel.
The vein has a north-south strike.
and an east dip Of As degrees, and
has a continuity OF LOO feet on
pitch OF go degrees 1t has some of the
characteristics of a contact.
An important part OF new develop
ment work IS the Winze off the third
level. which has attained a depth of
$50 feet. This is driven on an incline
OF As degrees and skip is operated
from the air compressor. off this
winze a sub-level has been run on the
vein. and II is proposed to sink anoth-
er Wine from this sub-leVel and at
the same time to raise from the 500
level 20 connections with the 500 level
