When he got to the Jail he was so

is bong conducted this summer by
E. ]. Kyle, dean of the school OF agri-
culture OF the Texas A. and NJ. Col
lege. In addition to visiting and in
specting the agricultural colleges, Mr..
Kyle also is studying the big dairies,
nurseries and farms of other states.
He will return in time for the opening
OF school.
Another feature OF his visit which
may result in good to the Texas farm
ers is a conference with the heads
of the agricultural department OF the
federal government Mr. Kyle will
spend a week in Washington. He re-
ceived his master of agriculture de-
gree from Cornell University and he
will visit his alma mater. He is ac-
companied by his wife and young
daughter.

Included in the 10000 names on this
list will be found the names of all
men on the various experiment sta
tions in the United States and terri
tories, about 300 Libraries. all agricul-
tural colleges; us of the leading
newspapers of the country. as well as
scientists of all descriptions. The re-
naming names are those of farmesr,

1t is difficult for one who has not
visited and inspected this important
part of the experiment station to con-
ceive of the volume of work done.
The director OF experiment stations
states that the work Of this division
can be greatly facilitated II those who
request their names to be added to-
the list will first ascertain If they are
already receiving the publications.
and thus save the station time In
wedding out duplicate names. The
work of revising the list, that is, re-
moving names to which literature
sent has been returned, changing adj
dresses, ETC.. win be lessened If those
desiring addresses changed will al
ways give the old as well as the new.

to same by number. A list OF the

time upon application to the director

Do PEOPLE WANT
CAS- IN BRYAN?
This Great Convenience VIII Be
Furnished II Consumers
Desire II.

II the question OF commercial gas
for the city was left to those who
have previously used it in other places
we would have gas and at once. AS
convenience and time-saver there is
nothing to equal it, and IF the people
want 1, in Bryan they can get it, so
says Jordan T. Lawler. manager OF
the Bryan Power Company. A fran
chise for the manufacture and convey
ance of gas has recently been secured
by this concern, and II 1t can be sold
to a sufficient number OF consumers
in the city a first-class plant Will be
installed before the close OF 1914,
equaling in service that OF the Bryan
Power Company, which is one OF the
best not only in the state but in any
state in the Union.
II. T. Lawler and son are both
great believers in municipal owner
ship OF all public utilities that such
necessities should be produced and
furnished to the consumers at actual
cost, and will operate a gas plant as
such or will produce 1t as individuals
and guarantee the public the best
service at the lowest possible rates
to be had.
The only question is. DO the people
of Bryan want gas?" If this question
be satisfactorily answered this firm is
ready to produce 1t.
