TO INSTRUCT THE FARMERS
Agricultural College to Exhibit at
West Michigan State Fair.

The department of farm and garden
produce at the West Michigan State
Fair. at Grand Rapids. September II
to 10, will offer something Of especial
interest and instructiveness TO farm
ers this year. The farmer of Michigan
has turned his attention to raising his
crops on the most scientific basis pos
sible and is always looking for some
thing better by which he may i'm
prove what he already has.
The department of agronomy of the
Michigan Agricultural college will this
year make a big display of grain and
fodder crops, both seed and straw, in
order that patrons of the fair may be-
come better acquainted with the old
and new varieties and set ideals which
the farmers may seek to equal in their
own crop production.
To still further encourage the pro-
duction of fruits and farm crops in
the newer sections of the state big
space has been set apart in the agri-
cultural building for county exhibits
alone This will permit of com.
parison of the successes in the vari-
Gus counties and afford keen rivalry
for the supremacy. Liberal premiums
have been offered for this feature Of
the fair this year.

liam Alden Smith and large number

sion of the congress and just proceed
ing a great state and national cam
paign, these men should have some
thing of more than ordinary interest
to say when given the opportunity
which 1t has always been the custom
of the fair officials TO give.
Senator Smith, who championed the
cause of the farmers In opposing the
reciprocity treaty. will most certainly
