SHORT AGRICULTURAL COURSE

The Gazette says that about 80
persons, probably half CT whom
were farmers, were in attendance
at the university on the opening of
the short course in agriculture. Act
ing President Levers made the
opening address.
While the attendance was not
large, it is believed that the total
registration will be very satisfac-
tory, as there are many farmers in
. 9th r parts of the state who have
signifed their intention to he pre-
sent, and many who have telephon-
ed in to learn when subjects in
which they are particularly inter
est ed will be considered.
Among special events of the week
will be the visit of the legislature
Friday. On that day lunch will be
served at the solons at the univer-
slty and a progrum of addresses
will follow. d. O.. Lively, the
man in charge of the stock exhibit
at the Panama far, will proba bly,
be n of the speakers. His address
to those registering for the cour Sc
will probably take place Friday
morning.
Another event during the week
will be a dinner given bv the agri-
cultural club.
Prof. Levers, in opening the
course referred to the experience
in Iowa where by means of demon
sration trains and school instruc-
tion, the farmers learned enough
about selection of seed to add mil
lions to the income from the corn
crop. He referred to Illinois. where
the agricultural students have in
creased from two to 900, aud to the
work Of Prof. Moore Of Wisconsin
who through his experiments with
barley has secured revolutionary
results ia the production of that
grain.
Prof, Levers was followed by DR..
H. E. Reid, chairman of the board
of regents, who welcomed those
enrolled for the cousc. The prin-
cipal address of the morning was
that by Prof. Gordon H. True in
which he made the statement that Of
all the states of the union he would
prefer Nevada for agricultural
pursuits.
Prof E. A. Howe gave a detail
ed exhibition Of seeds and seed
selection, showing samples of seeds
telling how to produce seed suit
able to Nevada how to maintain the
purity of seeds, how to test seed
and how to select the seed. He
encouraged discussion of the sub
ject. Prof. E. A. Frandsen spoke
of the relation Of birds and small
animals to agriculture.
