be most enthusiastic over the do hst'

and many of them are already asking
me what kind of arrangements may
be made to accommodate them here, so
that they too may attend the school.
In fact In general the more visit
the different ranohers In this region
the more clearly /, for one, can see
the great benefit to be derived from
securing the school for this city,
and I feel assured that once inaugu.
rated here, st. Maries will lead as the
place where the greatest Of interest
is taken in the Movable Agricul-
tural School work -
During the past few days Mr..
Cham bers has visited considerable OF
the territory about this city his trips
on horse back covering both sides
of the st. Maries river as far up as
Nc Goldrlck's farm on the one side
and to J. b. Henderson's ranch on
the other. and also up the st. Joe
river as far as Paul Rochat's ranch,
this "trip including visits to the
ranehers on both sides of the river.
In all about 35 miles Of riding has
been completed and with his trips
yesterday aud today down the river
to the Hells Gulch region aud on
this side Into the Benwah aud Cherry
Greek districts he believes that the
territory most convenient for the
securing of the ranohers' attendance
will have been we'll covered aud that
big representative delegation will be
present from each district.
Outside Of the work of securing
the slgners to petitions Mr. Chambers
Is taking up arrangements for matters
which will need attention In this
city, one Of these heing the making
of arrangements with the Red Col
lar Line to have the st. Joe boat
arrive in the city earlier In the morn
ing aud leave later In the evening,
this insuring better Accommodations
for the many ranohers up the st. Joe
river who desire to attend.
Another thing which will be taken
up will be placing the Molhers Club
, of this city In charge of providing q
, nursery and place TO take care Of the
children under the personal charge Of
some person engaged for the purpose,
this meaning that mothers may devous
a their time more largely to the at
!. tending Of the meetings.
o A suggestive program Of the diffe
4 rent sessions of the Movable Agricul
, tural School has been received by Nj
Chambers, the meetings covering
y three sessions each day for six days
i the dates of which while not defiuite
ly settled probably being the frs
week in December. the same tim
as the big st. Maries Poultry Show
- which will prove strong attraction
