The SOUTHERN TO RUN
TRAIN FOR FARMERS
Two Colleges on Wheels to
Be Operated

Washington, D. c., Feb. 25.-During
the week beginning Monday, March 8,
the Southern Railway Company, in line
with its policy of doing everything pos
sible for the betterment of agricultural
conditions in the territory traversed
by its lines, will run two special ag-
riculturaI educational trains.
One of these trains will be operated
in cooperation with the Virginia De-
partment of Agriculture and Immigra-
ton and will spend the entire week on
the Richmond division, between Rich
mond and West Point. Meetings have
been arranged at twelve points.
The other train will be run over the
lines of the Southern Railway and the
Queen and Crescent Route in Ken
lucky in cooperation with the Depart
ment of Agriculture and the College Of
Agriculture of that state. Twenty-four
stops will be made by this train.
Each of these trains will be in
charge of parties made up of men
scientific knowledge and practical ex
perience who will be able to give i'll
formation of the greatest value.
Subjects will be arranged to meet
the most pressing needs of the differ
ent sections visited Bad weather viii
not be allowed to interfere with the
meetings as all will be held in pas
senger coaches.
The Southern Railway in connection
with other lines is furnishing abso-
lutely free of charge a train with
which the State College of Agriculture
of Georgia is making a forty-seven day
tour of the state.
The expense entailed by the run
ming of these trains is born by the
Southern in the belief that its interests
are identical with those of the farmers
of the South and that it will eventual
ly be repaid by the improvement in
conditions that will result from an in
creasing adoption of better methods of
agriculture.
