 Presidents Address.
 A number of interesting facts and a plea for the dignity of agricultural life were ably introduced in a scholar ly address by the retiring president, George A COsSrOve of Wilmington, who noted that the demand for instruction in scientific poultry culture far exceed ed the supply; that the classes in these lines at all the agricultural colleges were oVercrowded, and that the aver age salary of 0 professor of poultry culture exceeded that of the average minister of the gospel. The day must be worked for, he said, when the Con- necticut Agricultural college will have far better facilities for instruction in this line than it has at the present time. The egg "crop," noted President Cosgrove in another place, exceeds in value that of the wheat crop and of any other except corn.

 Two Speakers.
 The meeting opened with a discus sion on A Few Very Important Crops Concerning Dairymen. There were two speakers. Prof. l.. A. Clinton, director of the Storrs Agricultural Ex- pertinent station, spoke on Root Crops as Adjuncts to Dairying- He spoke of the value of mangel wurzels as an adjunct to the lighter feeds like hay, alfalfa and clover. It has been stated a pound of dry mange1 wurzeI is equal to a like amount of corn meal. With the use of mangelS one-half the grain ration may be displaced. Mangels aid digestion of grain and hay and be- sides help to keep animals in healthy condition. Loose, open, porous soil is best Good potato land is good for mangelS. They can follow corn pOta- toes or clover to advantage. The land should be well fertilized with stable manures plowed under in the fall. One trouble Tn raising mangelS Is weeds. Manure that is known to be full of seeds should be composted and watered to burn the seeds.
 In the spring there should be a top dressing of 150 pounds nitrate of soda, 250 pounds acid phosphate 80 to 100 pounds of muriate of potash per acre. From 10 to 12 pounds of seed to the acre should be used for seed. They must be sowed thicllly and not too deep The yield ought to be from 30 to 40 tons per acre. The plants must be thinned to allow of the plants hay ing room to grow. One must get down on his knees and thin out the plants. The rows should be two and one-haIf feet apart so that in culti- vating the flores on the plants will not be cut and check the growth of the plants. The mangels need not be har- vested early. as they make vigorous growth in the late fall. "A light frost will not hurt the nangels. Mangel< are good for horses. sheep and poul-
