MINE ENGINEER
TURNS TO FARM
w. r. SLAUGHTER, M. C. N. MAN,
HAS BEGUN AN AGRlcUl-
TURAL COURSE AT
MENOMlNEE.

w. +. Slaughter, OF the Houghton
College OF Mines, who is mining en-
eineer OF some reputation has begun
a .course In the Menominee County
Agricultural school, says the Menom-
inee Herald Leader. This is quite a
change from the work that Mr.. Slaugh-
ter is accustomed 10 and II is sur
prise 10 many that he would take
up farming and drop such payins
profession as that which he has left
beh ind. However, Mr.. Slaughter has
his own Ideas in the matter.
Il win buy a farm in Michigan and
farm q myself. / believe that. after
all. farming is the best life and the
most Independent. There is no pro-
fesion or bushes in this country to-
dav that has anything over the farm
or. lie is as independent as the stars
His work goes on despite panics or al
most anything else. My interest IN
farming has not been sudden. / have
been gradually figuring II out with
myself and I find that ii will be the
best thing for me in after years. There
is a great deal to scientific farming
and I am DESTROYS Of learning it al
II possible"
Prof. Volta, OF the agricultural
school feels that he has been fortu-
nate in securing Mr.. Slaughter as
student 1t will do a good deal In
strengthening the belief in the school
in this vicinity. At present there are
twenty-six boys enrolled in the farm
ers short course. This is the largest
number Of boys the school has ever
had in any Of the short courses. II Is
encouraging to Prof. wojta and he
believes that the work he has put IN
for the school is beginning to be ap-
parent.

in London, which made n great point
of having running hot and cold water
in it's bedrooms. but had left out the
telephone, which even third-class

So, the lifts are small and slow; and
there are still places where you are eX-

But the service is generally good; and
at the best London hotels the food Is
