COMPLETED

The plans for the Stanley County
Farmers Short Course and Institute
have been completed and the pro-
grams issued. The instructors secur-
ed are the very best and stand at the
head of the departments in which
they will give instruction. Many
cities of large size have been unable
to present a course such as the farm
ers of Stanley county have the privi-
lege of attending from January 25th
to February 2nd.
Prof. A. Z. Chamberlain, of How
ard, State Superintendent of Farmers
Institutes and member of the Fac
ulty of the State Agricultural School,
will be here the last four days of the
Short Course and conduct the classes
in the Liye Stock Department. These
classes will be held in the Reidinger
Garage building.
DR.. II. II. Stoner, Superintendent
of the State Experimental farm at
Highmore will give series of eight
lectures during the first four days of
the Short Course, at the Opera House
on soils. DR.. Stoner is an authority
of national reputation on this subject
and no farmer in this new country
can afford to miss this opportunity of
receiving this instruction.
Mr.. II. E. kaufman will be here dur
ing the entire Short Course and will
conduct the classes in Corn Work and
Poultry. In the former work he will
conduct two classes each day--the
mems class in the forenoon, at the
Opera House and the boys class in
the afternoon at the Simek building.
Mr.. kaufman has no peer in this work
and has successfully conducted nu-
merous courses in corn work through
out Iowa and has won concentration
from each.
Prof. J.D. Towar, of Lansing, Mich.
a prominent member of the faculty
OF the Michigan Agricultural College,
has been secured for a series of eight
lectures which he will deliver during
the first four days of the Short Course
dealing principally with the raising
of grains and grasses. -
Mr., #. J. Hoon, who lives west of
town in Big Buffalo township has
consented IT, conduct classes on Fruit
and Tree culture. Mr.. Hoon is all
old time nursery man and came to
Stanley county some FIVE years ago
and already has as fine an orchard
and bunch of trees as can be found in
the entire state. This instruction
alone is worth the time spent in COM
ing to attend the Short Course, for
the raising of trees and fruit means
much to every farmer in this county.
Marian Cole Fisher, of st. Paul, will
have charge of the Domestic Science
work and will be here the enUire eight
days. Mrs. Fisher is an instructor Of
unusual ability and it is seldom that
the ladies in community the size of
this are afforded the opportunity of
learning the modes of cooking as is
taught by this instructor.
With this array of talent all that re-
mains to make the only Short Course
west of the Missouri river one of the
most successful in the entire north
west is the attendance of every farm
err, his wife and children, and we wish
to urge all who possibly can to make
their arrangements to start with the
first class on Wednesday morning,
January 25th and remain until the
Short Course closes with the election
of officers on Thursday afternoon Feb
ruary 2no.
A liberal list of premiums is offer
ed in the various departments by the
business men of Kadoka. The prem
inn list together with the daily pro-
gram is published elsewhere in this
issue.
1t costs nothing to attend the class
es, as all the expenses incurred have
been provided for, and stock brought
in for demonstration purposes will be
given good care free of charge to the
owners.
