Frsm the Record:
BY the exceedingly kind courtesy OF
the Minneapolis Daily Tribune, We are
privileged and pleased to reproduce
the above snapshot" from its issue Of
Sept. 5, showing one of our pioneer
and highly respected citizens who Wis
tied the Minnesota State fair last
week, and again enjoyed by-gone days
with old mates. The Tribune says:
Father Time may be able to work
changes in so years in turning black
hair, silver gray, and making limbs
bent and trembly, but he failed to dis
guise the face and figure Of Nicholas
Murphy, Y, that his old army com
rade, Sergeant John Dorsh, "a, did not
recognize him after a separation Of As
years. Sergeant Dorsh came to Min
neapolis from Sunnyvale, Cal, to at
tend a reunion of the boys Of the
Eleventh Minsesota regiment. 1t was
the last reunion he could attend, he
said, as rheumatism was creeping on,
and a lot of the younger men had
gone over the divide When he stood
up to answer the roll call, another
bent veteran, with a cane, came up and
tapped him on the shoulder. Sergeant
Dorsh turned around and looked long
at the man who had tapped his should
er. Then his eyes lit up and he put
his knobby hand into the hand of
Nicholas Murphy. It's Nicholas he
said. old Nick. His hair is gray
and his eyes are dim. and a leetle Of
the devil is out of him, butt it's Nick

BEADLE BUILDING AT FAIR

The Beadle monument commission
set out to raise $4,000 for that purpose
and actually did raise S4,67S, says a
Pierre dispatch. The expense amount
ed to $3.50, and the statute was secur-
ed for $500, much less than was an
~ticipated, leaving about $4,000 On
hand, which the committee desired to
use for tablets to be placed in the ro-
tunda OF the state house dedicated to
Gov. A. c. Me!lcttc. and Mother Sher-
rard, to cost about $1,000 apiece. The
state educational association last year
disapproved of such plan, and instruct
ed the committee, consisting of Cover
nor Vessey, Superintendent Lawrence,
ex-Superintendent Bamer, President
Wenzlaff and Doane Robinson, to con
fer with the board of agriculture to Sc
cure it's cooperation towards con
structing a Beadle memorial building
at the state fair, on which the $4,000
was to apply. This committee met
with the board Of agriculture Thurs
day and President Hill of the board,
and Superintendent Lawrence selected
as a building plan committee, to re-
port to a joint meeting Of the commit
tees, not later than January 10th, and
presumably at the state educational
association meeting at Mitchell in
November. Some suggestions were
made as to its character. There is i'm
perative need for a large assembly
hall at the fair, and it is proposed to
include one herein to seat not less
than 1000 people. The sportsmen Of
the state suggest that part of the now
very large accumulated game fund be
appropriated for a permanent museum
of the states natural history to in
clude specimens Of all native fauna,
and the committee will consider de-
voting part Of the building for hous-
ing the same.

AGRICULTURE BY CORRESPOND.
ENCE

Agriculture by mail is a course
which is proving very popular in the
State College in this city and students
from nearly every state in the union
and in Hawaii are enrolled in it,
The new course is in the college ex
tension work and the following sub
jects are taught in it:
Elementary Agriculture.
Animal Husbandry.
Poultry Culture.
Elements of Botany.
Horticulture.
Fruit Culture.
Vegetable Gardening.
Biology.
Home Economics.
Home Sanitation.
Bookings college is the only institu-
ton of its kind in the country which
has taken up the work of teaching ag
riculture by mail and the success OF
The first year has established 1t as a
permanent feature of the college.
The students took a great interest
in their work and it is expected that
the results will be far reaching in thar
a general knowledge Of the rudimen
tary facts OF scientific farming are
easily gained by the farmers by a little
study at their homes.
Indications are that the ensuing
year will be even more successful than
the past, as the course has not been
advertised extensively and its success
as a practical method of instruction
has been established.
In addition to the correspondence
course the college is planning to carry
on extension work by a series of lee.
lures to be delivered by experts. These
lectures will be on practical topics
of modern farming and will be deliver
ed in the school houses throughout
the country. During the summer the
experts will visit various farms and
show the farmers how to plant and
grow crops scientifically.
