Agricultural Education for Yer
mont BOYS,

A school of Agriculture for Vermont
boys is to be opened next September in
connection with the Lyndon Institute
at Lyndon Center, this State. A two
years course in scientific and parctical
agriculture will be given, designed to
prepare young men for successful farm
ing under Vermont conditions. BOYS
will be instructed in the character of
soils, the use of fertilizers, animal hus.
bandry, dairying, horticulture, vegetable
gardening and greenhouse management.
The purpose of the promoters of the
school is to ma Ike it thoroughly scientific
and at the same time practical. The
boys will be required to do actual farm
work and become familiar with the vari-
Gus operations they study in the class
room.
The farm which will be used as the
laboratory of the school has been &C
quired for the purpose by Theodore N.
Val. who is much interested in the sub
jecl of agricultural education. With
MIR. Vail in the formation of plans for
the school have been associated Elk. Gov.
Fletcher ID. Proctor, President Gibbs of
the New Hampshire State Agricultural
College, Director Hills of the Vermont
State Experiment Station, State Super
intendent Mason S. Stone, John w. Tit
comb and President Thomas of Middle
bury College. The new school is de-
signed to be a public institution, not
private enterprise.
A unique feature of the school will be
the opportunity it will afford to Yer
mont boys to pay for their education in
agriculture while acquiring it. 1t will
be in no sense a charity school, and
every boy will be required to pay for his
tuition, board and lodging But boys
who wish to work their own way will be
given an opportunity to work during
term time at fifteen cents an hour and i'm
the summer vacation they will be paid
S25 per month and board. 1t is expected
that an able bodied and industrious boy
will be able TO provide his expenses by
this method Any Vermont boy who
has finished the grammar school and is
ready for High School may make appli-
cation for admission.
The director of the school will be
Arthur r. Merrill, a graduate of the
New Hampshire State Agricultural Col
lege and a successful teacher at the
Baron deHirsch Farm School in New
Jersey. Mr.. Merrill will send to anyone
interested circular of the school and
application blanks may be obtained
from him. Address Lyndon Center,
Vermont.

MlOOlE.BURY EXPLORERS.
College Professors Plan Expedi-
ton to Interior Of Labrador
Prof. Mcfarland Leader.

A scientific expedition to the
west-central part of Labrador for
the following summer is being or
gained by Prof. Raymond Nc
Farland of Middebury College. The
expedition will go by rail to Lake st.
John, Quebec, thence by canoe to Lake
Mistassini via the Chamouchouan river
and File Axe lake. After brief stay
at the Hudson Bay company's post on
the lake the expedition will proceed to
the eastward where field work and
study of the UNEMPLOYED region about
Little Lake Mistassini and Lake Tennis
camie will be made. Return to Lake
st. John will be made via the Mistassni
river; in this way, about 700 miles will
have been covered by canoe and port
age.
The purpose of the expedition is to
obtain better knowledge of the unex-
plored interior of Labrador and to add
scientific data to the geography and ge-
ology of the height of land. The work
of Prof. Mcfarland in the field will be
directed largely in securing specimens
of fauna in the regions visited. AS as
sociates in the expedition he will have
DR.. Thomas c. Brown and Prof. Phelps
N. SWEET, both professors in Middlebury
College. DIR. Brown, who has had ex-
perience in two exploring parties sent
out from Amherst College to South Da-
kota and northern Wyoming, will act as
geologist of the expedition. Professor
SWEET will be magnetic observer and
topographer. While the expedition is
primarily private venture it will re-
ceive the cooperation of well known
scientific institution of Washington, D.
c., which will furnish part Of the equip
ment of the party.
The scientific equipment of the expe-
dition will consist of an observing tent,
magnetometer with theodolite, dip cir
Gle, one-half second pocket chronome-
ter, pocket compases, Hamilton watch,
aneroid barometer, geologist's COM
s-clinometer, two kokads, self reg
istering maximum and minimum Their
mometers and one steel tape.

COLLEGE DEFEATED.
Loses to Massachusetts College
bv Score of d to a.

What was, perhaps, one of the best
ball games of the season was played
Friday afternoon on the campus when
the College team was defeated by the
Massachusetts State Agricultural Col
lege, to 8. 1t was a close game from
start to finish and but for errors on the
part of the local team the result would
probably have been different.
The weather was cold and not at all
conducive to good base ball but in spite
of this handicap both Clegg and Stilson
pitched good game. Clegg struck out
Is and allowed 10 hits, while Stilson
struck out II and only six were able to
get hits off him.
Middlebury got two tallies in the
initial inning, when, with one out, Still
son singled to left and went to second
on Stewards bingle. Both advanced on
Fishers grounder to left and scored on
Coleman's timely two-bagger to right.
The "Aggies" scored one in the Sec
ond on hit and two errors. In the
fifth the locals got another on two pas
SEES and Fishers double. The visitors
scored one more in the sixth and in the
seventh took the lead, netting two runs
on three hits and wild pitch. After
that both pitchers were invincible, only
one man reaching first in the last two
innings.
Middlebury out-batted the Aggies,
every man but one getting at least one,
but in fielding the visitors proved far
superior. Brewster was undoubtedly
the star of the infield. He grabbed
several that looked like safe ones and
his star catch of Barney's liner in the
seventh was the fielding feature of the
game.
Fisher contributed the fielding feature
by making a difficult catch of foul
behind a clump of trees. Stewart
gathered in two difficult fouls.

George Hammond, superintendent of

cement walk on Main street in front of
the Battel block to replace the old
asphalt walk which was broken up last
fall when it became necessary to change
the course of the village water main in
that vicinity. The change necesstates
considerable expense but the result
should be satisfactory to all taxpayers,
as cement is undoubtedly the best thing
for sidewalks at the present time and
will do good service for many years.
To have patched up the old asphalt
walk with cement would have made an
unsightly appearance and the repairs
would have been only temporary at the
best. The trustees will do we'll to order
cement in all places where it is neces-
sary to construct new walks.
