agreement for them to sign that they
would limit the session to three days
and in return the Jacksonville Board
OF Trade agrees to pay all expense Of
the three day session. It is understood
that q large number of the members
have signified their willingness to abide
by this arrangement and 1t is also un-
derstood that the only objection the
governor would have to calling the ses-
sion would be that 1t might be the

extended sitting, for which there does
not seem to be any great necessity

The order meant the purchase Of las

the order. He explained he did not

There is another matter in which
l am deeply interested. There are
only three lines devoted to it in the
democratic platform. but there are
no lines devoted to it in the republ-
can platform; and there are so many
lines in the bull moose platform
that l haven't found it yet. 1t is
a Sabbath days journey through that
program. If there are such lines 1
have not reached that station yet
But in the democratic platform there
are three lines in which the party
declares 1t to be its duty to devote
such funds of the national govern
ment as it may constitutionally devote
to such purposes to the promotion of
industrial. agricultural and vocation
al education.
"The specific meaning of that part
of the platform is this: You know
that in our universities there is stor-
ed up no end of information, which
would be extremely useful to the far
mer if the farmer could only get at
it. We can not let the farmer leave
the fields and come to the university
to get the information. because we
would starve in the meantime. But
we can organize matters in such a
fashion that the university will carry
the information to the farmer; and
it is our business to see that the
chemistry of soils, all the investiga-
tion that has been going on in the
world of science for a generation and
more, in the proper rotation of crops.
all the information which has been
gathered with regard to the proper
tine and method of planting certain
crops and the adaptation of certain
crops to certain soils-all questions
which have been exhaustively studied
in the universities-should be carried
to the farms, and the men on the
farms given free use of these accum-
ulations of knowledge.
