GREAT SCOPE FOR
FARMERS SCHOOLS
Prof. G. |. Christie Suggests
Methods of Improving
County Institutes.

LAFAYETTE, Ind. Oct e1.-The
final sessions Of the most successful
extension workers conference were
held in the assembly hall Of the Pur-
due agricultural building yesterday.
with about two hundred agricultural
workers in attendance. The morning
was devoted to a few brief addresses
on methods of making individual coun-
ty institutes successful in which Rob
ert E. Geyer, of North Liberty: John
L. Harden, of New Castle. and e. B.
Moore. of Scircleville, participated.
Professor G. l. Christie devoted con-
siderable time to the issuance of sug-
gestions for future work. What the
farmers institute has done for the
age is we'll known, he said. What the
farmers institute will stand for and
accomplish in the next few years is q
problem.
MANY feel that the institute has
fulfilled its purpose and should give
way to something else. If We had some
other form of meeting or course which
was superior to the institute, then l
should be in favor of the change. But
We have nothing to offer as a substi-
tute. For this reason, it is up to us to
make the most Of the Institutes.
IF the institute is to succeed. it
must be more permanent. That is. the
people should know when an associa-
ton is organized that they will have
regular meetings and help. The in
stitute association must hold more
than one meeting each year. The
problems are too many to be discuss
ed in one day or one meeting.
"The county organization must be
broadened. In too many counties the
work and responsibility has fallen on
one man. Other workers must be
drafted into service. For this reason.

MUST HAVE Been FUN
Mules Played Ping Pong
With Their Master.

EDWARDSVILLE, ILL.,. Oct. 21.-
Matthias Bast probably owes his life
to the fact that he was kicked across
haystack by two mules only three
times. The mules were situated on
opposite sides of the stack, and only
the faulty aim of one mule prevented
Bast from playing a ping pong role
until the mules tired out.
Bast has three broken ribs, frac-
tured collar bone and bruises and cuts
all over his body. He admits that ev-
en- with his strong constitution he
would have been able to mage the
strenuous tran-stack trip only a few
more times. The mules, who were be-
coming proud of their batting average.
seemed put out when they were made
to desist from the exercise.
Bast owns a farm on which he
raises mules. The other day two
calves strayed into the mule lot and
Bast tried to coax them out. They de-
clined to be coaxed. Bast decided to
risk the mules and went into the lot
after the calves.
intercepted him at the haystack.
While one stood guard the other mule
went to the opposite side of the stack.
Then No. /, taking carful aim, kicked
Bast. He described a graceful para
bola over the stack and alighted very
convenient to No. 2. The latter, an
xious to emulate his companions high

No. l, perhaps over anxious to
score again or afraid Bast would
manage to escape fired quickly at

Fell short from the destined aim. He
lighted on the top of the stack and

until the mules were driven away.

mansion in Fourteenth street, has
! been dismantled and will be torn
down in a few days. The latest oc-
cupant was Frederick T. Van Beuren,
son of Col. Henry Van Beuren, in
whose life time the house was built
more than seventy years ago. When
! the house was built the neighborhood
| was the fashionable center of the city.
The Van Beuren House, with its pref
ty garden formed only small part
of the property of the Van Beuren
family. They own all the rest of the
block to Fifth avenue, and con-
siderable land adjoining. 1t was orig
inally the Spingler farm, comprising
about % acres, and was purchased
by Henry Spingler in 1888 from John
Smith, who bought the tract in 1862
from Elias Brovoort. Spingler paid
less than $4,000 for the farm. 1t in
cluded all of the present Union
Square which was taken by the city
when the streets were cut through.
The old Spingler farmhouse stood
within the limits of Union Square.
Spingler left no sons to inherit his
estate and through his only daughter,
who married a Van Beuren, the prop
erty came into the Van Beuren family.

The swimmer became exasperated
and slapped at the fly, whereupon it
circled his head and flew straight in

the fly that he sank and would have
drowned, had not some friends in a
boat came to his rescue.
Caspar Robling, farmer and chic
ken raiser near Bloomfield, N. j., is
beyond doubt lucky man. For some
time he had been missing chickens and
the other day on of his prize-winning
boosters was gone. Vowing ven
geance, Robling armed himself with a
loaded shotgun and went in ambush
for the depredator of his poultry yard.
After waiting in vain for several
hours he saw a neighbours dog near
the chicken coop. He started in such
haste to pursue the dog, that he trip
ped and fell. The shotgun was dis
charged and several of the shots en-
tered Robling's hand. AS he arose to
his feet he saw lying in front of him
dead mink, who had been feeding on
the prize rooster and was killed by
the accidental discharge of Robling's
gun.
