GIVEN PRAISE
PRESIDENT or THE INSTITUTION
HAS HIS WHOLE SOUL M
THE WORK
no PREPARATORY STBDEETS
Four Vouns Men Take the COMPETE
tive Examination For Appointment
the Rhodes Scholarships From
West Virginia

Never in the history OF its existence
has this institution had a brighter
future before it. The president fully
appreciates the responsibility that
rests upon him, and he has thrown
his whole soul into the work. BE has
the hearty cooperation of the entire
faculty, as well as Of the people Of
the whole state. He is broad-mindeG
and not willing to see one department;
Of the school built up at the expense
of the other: but the thing that should
please the farmers most is the fact
that the president believes that there
is no department in the institution
that is of more vital importance to
the state than the Department of Agri-
culture. It may be said OF him that
he loves not the other departments
less, but this one the more HAD
this view of agriculture been takea
twenty years ago, how much bette!
it would have been for the material
interests of the state. And ] know OF
no people who are TO blame for il
more than the farmers. We have sim
ply been inactive and uninterested in
the things that not only meant more
TO rs than anything else, but more to
the people of the state. The West
Virginia College of Agriculture and
Experiment Station are in a more
healthy condition than they have ever
been. The Board ofRegents has given
to the Dean and Director a corps of
very vaIuab bic and efficient assistants.
During the past year not a single com
plant has come to me that letters Of
inquiry written by farmers were not
answered promptly. These professors
are not only willing to answer all in
quiries from farmers promptly, hut
they are anxious that farmers should
write to them for help. This fnst:tu-
ton is ours and the president and
tentire faculty are our servants, and
We should not hesitate to call upon
them to help us.

of more mature years when he left
his farm two winters to attend this
short course, but he has always felt
that he never made an investment
that paid half so well-not that the

that there was SO much he did not

who expects to manage his farm five
years longer. can afford not to take

Farmers, Agricultural Course.

: dTHlGFS FNStiCA'GG'a' WI 80
The College OF Agriculture OF the
West Virginia Univers ity Will hold an
other short course in agriculture for
the farmers Of the state. This course
will begin January 7, 1913, and last
for ten days
The same equipment and facilities
that are used in tho teaching OF. the
four years course. will be used in this
short course. The Instruction will not
only be given by the regular instruc-
tors of the College Of Agriculture, but
experts of prominence from different
parts OF the state and from other
states will assist in the work. Special
lectures and entertainments will be
given each evening.
The. entire cost, including board,
room and registration fee, need not
exceed $500. One day at this course
may amply repay a farmer for the full
amount expended.
A large number OF farmers attended
the course last year and every one
felt that It was money we'll ex-
pended. Cne farmer who has at
tended the course for seven successive
winters. Won nearly ali the West Vir.
GINA first prizes on fruit and vegeta.
bles at the State Fair at Wheeling.
The farmer who can leave his farm,
or the farmers boy who has no
definite line Of study for the winter,
should arrange to take this short
course at the college.

Big Balloon Destroyed.

Dusseldorf, Germany June 29.-The
Zeppelin dirigible balloon, Schwaben
l., stationed here, was totally heS
stroyed today. The balloon was lying
at anchor when a strong gust of wind
caught it and broke it from its moor
ings. 1t collapsed in the middle A
number of mechanics seized the
ropes but the balloon was wrenched
out of their hands into the air, where
a moment later it exploded, caught
fire and was consumed.
Several workmen and forty-four sol.
diers, who had been called to assist,
were injured, some of them seriously.
The airship had arrived from
Frankfort last night. Owing to the
high wind 1t could not be derricked

STRONG IN LOVE COUNTY.
Fred Tucker a Winner for Senator
In Sister County.

Under the caption, Fred Tucker
for Senator" the Marietta Monitor
pays a well merited and a true com
pliment to the senatorial candidate
from Carter county.
To the people of Carter county Fred
Tucker needs no words of eulogy. His
brief career as public official
public seryant-has been one which
speaks for itself. 1t has shown him
lie office is public trust. Such a
man is we'll worthy the support of a
constituency such as that of the coun
ties in this senatorial district, con-
stituency who are entitled to the best.
The words of the Marietta Moni-
tor follow:
In the paper this week will be
found the announcement of Fred e.
Tucker of Ardmore for the office Of
state senator from this the 18th SEN
atorial district, which is composed
of Love, Carter and Murray counties,
subject to the action of the demo-
cratic party at the primary to be held
August 9th.
Mr.. Tucker Is one of the most bril-
liant young men in the 18th senate.
rial district and is truly a self-made
man. His father died when Fred was
quite young and the responsibilities of
caring for large family fell upon
his shoulders. He educated himself
by his own efforts and in few years
climbed from janitor in one of the
public school buildings in Ardmore
to superintendent of Carter county
schools.
When elected to the office of coun-
ty superintendent he lacked just sew
en- votes of leading the democratic
ticket in Carter county. When nom
mated to this Office he went to the
south and east and studied the school
system at close range. He believes
in economy in school work and has
recovered sufficient misappropriated
funds since being in Office to more
than pay the salary of assistant su-
perintendent. He puts school work
above all else. Mr.. Tucker was born
in Mt. Vernon, Texas, has lived in
Carter county L. years. He is well
known in all three of the counties
comprising the 18th district and will
poll good vote"
