OF all theorists the man who ap-
plies no method or system or science
is the worst. He sits down in the cor
ner grocery and tells the boys when
to plant beans, and how to feed stock,
and when to sell wheat This man
who farms by tradition is your real
theorist, and the college bred man is
poor daub of the original. However,
before We get far on the road of prog
ress the practice and theory must be
brought together. Looking over the
history of the past decade this is the
most notable advance of the schools,
that they have slowly worked around
TO an appreciation of that fact, and as
fast as they arm their men with both
practice and theory the graduates of
the agricultural schools go out TO make
life larger for those about them, and
more valuable to themselves. The
agricultural education is worth while,
and il is becoming more vital with
the passage Of time and the growth of
experience.-Farm, Stock and Home.

conference of farmers institute, short
course and extension workers in Chi

laboratory work in a well-equipped
laboratory, in which the technical pro

FARM NOTES

France has spent SS5,000, 900 in plant
ing trees on the watersheds of impor-
tant streams.
Edward Smith, living near the Wag-
onseller bridge, Green Valley, Ill, had
a yield of fifty bushels Of oats 10 the

nursery stock in charge of Prof. ]. G.
Sanders of the economic entomology
department of the college of agricul-
ture of the University of Wisconsin,
which started July l, is now fully un-
derway. The law strictly forbids the
sale of trees, shrubs, cane fruits and
strawberry plants without an inspec-
ton for disease.
Jessie Field writes than an old
farmer in Page county, Iowa, once
said: 81 can't see the sense of rails
ing more corn and better stock to get
more money if we don't use that
money to make better homes and do
not see how we can have better homes
unless we make our boys and girls
have the right idea of home making"

That chickens intended for market
should be divided into small flocks and
should be fed heavily on fattenine

of Prof. James G. Halpin of the col

| of Wisconsin. 1t has been found thai
as rule, the average farmer pays
! little or no attention to the fattenine
of his market fowls, taking them tt
market directly from the range. A
mixture of four parts of ground corr
and one part of wheat bran mixed witt
enough sour skim milk to make i

people may gather from time to tim
for pleasant social, literary and mus
cal entertainment. The fun-lovin
spirit of the young folks should

for recreation should be gratified b
providing various indoor and outdoo

His Audience

It is not necessary for US to recount
tNe record made by Captain Hobson
(then lieutenant) in the Spanish
American war, and of his triumpha
tour of America shortly following. We
would like to say. however, that if
Cur readers have the opinion Of Hob
son that most newspapers seem to
wish them to have, they will be agree
ably surprised. Like most noted men,
he has suffered from misrepresenta-
tion-he, more than others. He is
not a bully, or a dude, or lingo; nor
did he ever kiss the girls by whole
sale. He, himself, is the strongest
contradiction to all these libels that
persist to this very day. When you
see and hear him you will see and
hear a polished southern Christian
gentleman, manly, modest. handsome
