Legislation For The College

The College and Farm received con-
siderable notice at Dover this winter.
The Stare is giving more attention to
the institution every year.
The Legislation affecting the institu-
ton this year was as follows:
The charter of the college was re-
newed for two years. The Commis-
sion appointed two years ago to make
investigations and report to this ses-
sion OF the General Assembly recon-
mended that the members of the Board
be appointed by the Court. The repre-
sentatives of the old Board refused to
make this concession so by concurrent
resolution, the matter was referred to
the State Board of Education for con-
sIderatlon to report at next session
The members o. the old Board offer
ed to concede their part of the prop
erty TO the State and give the State IS
members Of he Board, thus giving the
State strong majority but for what
they deemed the best interest of the
college refused gran. Court full ap-
pointive power.
EDUCATION FOR GIRLS.
The matter of Higher Education for
Women, which has concerned the pub
lie mind so long was also referred TO
State Board of Education for consider
alton. This Board will give head to
| tn movement and it is thought some
concerted action will result from their
| recommendations. An attempt will be
made to secure concensus OF opinion
and outline a plan whereby the State
can provide for the education of our
girls.
CHAIR OF HISTORY.
A Department. of History will be
added to the College studies. This
will include also the study of political
science and economies. A special
course is to be given on Delaware His
tory and the workings of our govern
ment. A course OF lectures is also
provided for.
An annual appropriation of $4,000 is
made for this department.
The College, aside from this, gets an
annual appropriation for two years OF
$1,000 for general improvements.
THE FARM.
The Farm will receive $4,000 ior the
completion of the Plant including the
Dairy House, a tenant house and gen
eral repairs, ETC.
| AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION.
A new department was given to the
Agricultural Department-Agric
Extension, to carry on work through
out The State in connection with the
farm. This will come under the super
vision OF the Director of Experiment
Station. An appropriation of $4,000 fol

The growth of the colored artist in
the world of art finds a brilliant il
lustration in the recital which was
held last night in Orchestra hall,
Chicago by Madam Azalia Hackley
our own friend and former citizen.
Orchestra hall is the elite auditorium
of Chicago, the home of the Thomas
orchestra, situated on Michigan ave
nue.. 1t seats two thousand and ca
ters only to high-class events. The
prophet would not have been be-

seemed likely to reach such an emf

Assistance has been given in tho
organization of creameries in some OF
the States, notably North Carolina. but
the government takes no stock in tho
fellows who go around to organize
companies aud build creameries in
sections that are not yet ready to
maintain such n plant, having not yet
raised the cows TO give the milk to
keep n creamery supplied with the
necessary stock TO make il pay. OF
course. the only object these fellows
ave in sight is the sale of the costly
equipment for the plant.
The report OF the chief says these
creamery promoters" have been quite
active the past year in Virginia and
the other Southern States named, and
this warning is given. There are
hut few localities in these States where
dairying is as yet sufficiently developed
10 make IT possible to operate a cream
cry with success. hence the dairy di-
vision tries TO discourage such enter
prises where local conditions are such
that they cannot succeed. Whenever
the conditions are reasonably favorable
all possible assistance Is gwen in or
gambling creamerics and getting the
work properly started
Teaching the Dairy Business.
Speaking further OF the work OF
Uncle Sans dairy experts in the field,
the report says:
Assistance was given by field men
| at thirteen fairs AT each of these q
butter contest was held. a small eX-
hibit of plans of dairy buildings was
made, and publications on various dairy
subjects We're distributed.
a number OF the fairs working
dairies We're conducted by the field
men. a twelve-month butter contest
was conducted In North Carolina. Thirty
dairymen entered, nineteen remained to
the close. One hundred and six agri-
culture meetings were attended by the
field workers, and seven short courses
Of dairy instruction of from three to
six days were given.
During the year three new dairy
and live stock associations were or
Eanized. and meetings were held with
six associations organized the previous
year"
Now, that is doing pretty we'll for
Uncle Sam. exceedingly we'll. and the
people ought TO not only take advant-
age Of the help offered freely. but en-
courage and uphold the helpers. I'm
Gle Sam never sends out experts unless
they are indeed experts. n as for
that matter. Virginia sends no block
heads out to instruct armcrs and
dairymeD. Hence the agents of tho
government and of the State ought al
ways to he received with open arms.
II is not always the fact that they are
so received In the back and
more is the pity.
