Like every other person in the party, Mr.. Buck
ingham took occasion to express approval
the visit and wished there may be more of the same
kind "The talk Of back to the farm all right as
far II goes" he said, but it is decidedly better in
my opinion, to keep the farm boys the farm where
they belong and where they be of most value to
their communities, the state and the nation This is
especially true of the boys educated at the agrc-
tural school and every at all interested in the
future development Of the agricultural resources of
our state should give every encouragement in his
power to secure the necessary appropriations and
facilities at the farm to bring about the very desirable
end Of having few thoroughly educated farmers in
every precinct OF every county in Nebraska"
President buckingham but expressed the thought

MiIIIner Poem OF worth


ID, b. Van Buren,
How doth the little milliner
Concoct each costly hat.
And gather shekels all the day,
Until your purse is flat.
How nobly She charges you
For ribbons by the mile,
To decorate CONNECTIONS.
In the best Partisan style.
Who ever knew her miss chance
A gorgeous plume TO fit
Ia Just the proper spot TO shove IT.
The total up bit
AID then with what sublime aplomt
She pens her little bill,
That starts you on the pathway to
The poorhouse on the hill
No doubt but old King Solomon
Thought Of her when he spoke
about the marked rapldity
With which the fool goes broke.
So aptly doth the mlliner
The Scripture Justify,
by parting in her wondrous way
The dollars from the guy.
