successful agricultural summer school

The following article, taken from
the Tacoma Ledger, shows the interest
that was manifest:
"After six weeks of most success
full course the summer school OF the
Washington State college closed today
with demonstration of the work
done by all departments during the
course. The closing exercises, which
commenced at 10 O'Clock this morn

the entire day, many coming from
Tacoma to view the exhibits.

lures was the demonstration of
testing textiles to determine whether
they we're correctly labeled.s The
tests we're all of kind that could be
adopted by any housewife, and the
results of tests showed goods sold
with statement that they we're pure

pies of cloth to be tested.
