Last Tuesday morning our city
was all ablaze with Old Glory. A

with flags and bunting.
Promptly at $50 o'clock the

line of march in front Of the Hotel

flower girls and boys under COM
mand of Capt. K ed f. Black and all
started for the cemetery. Arriving
at the cemetery the veterans pro-
ceeded to the grave of Col. Clark,
where a hollow square was formed
and the ritualistic ceremony was
performed, after which the little
flower girls, under the direction OF
the veterans, proceeded to place
wreaths and flowers upon the graves
of all the fallen comrades.
From there the march was taken

IN accordance with that offered il
the short winter course, which ex
tends ten weeks. The summer course
however, offers many advantage,
which the winter course cannot
enjoy, such, for example, as visiting
the growing crops on the expert
ment plots or at Elmendorr
Elmendorf is stock farm owned
by Mr.. u. Ilaggin and is perhaps
the finest farm in the world, having
besides its cropping interests, the
very best OF all classes of live stock
and also what is probably the finest
dairy barn in the world. A year
ago an arrangement was made by
which the Agricultural College was
given full use of the Elmendori Farm.
the students OF course being the
ones ultimately to derive the benefits
of such an arrangement. This gives
facilities to the Kentucky Agrlcul.
tural College which are enjoyed
perhaps by no other agricultural
college in tie country.
The greenhouses, plots, farm and
dairy OF the College are of course at
the service of the students and in
struction in these lines of work con.
stitutes a regular part OF this course.
Opportunity will be given for a
certain degree of specialization, that
is, student may devote his par
ticular attention to dairy ing, poul-
try husbandry, farm crops, hort.
culture, entomology, the sciences, or
to live stock
Besides the regular work planned
for the students in the Agricultural
College as in other departments, a
special course has been arranged,
the lectures to take place twice
weekly. These are all of a non
technical nature and of general and
specific interest to students in any
department of the University.
A majority of the pc ,plc in Ken
tuckv are engaged in agriculture Ut
some form, hence it seems suitable
that the Agricultural College should
strive to meet the demands OF this
large class of people in the most
effective way. This it seems should
be done through the teachers AM
practical farmers of the State who
can put into operatian the teachings
OF the Agricultural College.
The summer course will begin on
June sixth and will extend to Iuk
twcnty.eighth. On arrival III the

made to meet the expenses at ,hs
course and no pains will he spared
to make it of such a nature as to
satisfy the demands of teachers an
farmers.
In nearly every county IN the State
an effort has been made to form an
agricultural club among the boy ;,
aud the success OF such enterprises
in the counties where it was tried
last year was phenomenal From
such activity the school will natu-
rally become the agricultural i'm.
provemcnt center. and with a train,

value will be greatly extended
