days session Of the Lee County Farm
ers' Institute and Short Course.

the visitors are several in
structors from Ames and promi-
rent agriculturists, who will address
the meetings.
The first morning was devoted to
getting the exhibits in shape and look

Joseph Fry, who has held the Of
flee OF president OF the institute since
the organization eight years ago, and
who, within the last year has remoy-

BY a Lee county man. Mr.. Fry has
for years been one of the most prom
inent of the Lee county agricultur-
lists and his passing will be viewed
with regret by many of the farmers
Of Lee county.
In the morning the domestic science
class Of the short course took up the
subject of sanitation and a lengthy
discussion was held under the direc.
ton Of Mrs. Charles B. Mccoy.

Last evening a lecture by Robert s.
Seeds OF Birmingham. Pa, attracted
"a large number of visitors.
Friday is expected to be the lar.
gest day Of the meeting and it is
thought that more than a thousand
of Lee county farmers will attend the
institute. Interest in the institute is
at high pitch and the address of
President Fry, which is a plea for
the farmers to take advantage of the
Julius Rosenwald offer OF thousand
dollars and employ an expert for the
benefit OF the county, was received
enthusiastically by the institute.
Everything points to one Of the
most successful meetings that has
been held in the eight years that the
institute has been in existence.

Gentlemen
This is the eighth consecutive
meeting of the farmers and business
men of Lee county here in Donnell-
son to discuss the various agricultural
topics of the day. want to thank
you gentlemen at the outset Of this
meeting for the honor you have CON
ferred upon me for continuing me as
the president since the conception of
the institute.
You are all aware that am now a
resident of another state and as a
matter of fact you will now select
another to fill my place as president
You have plenty of good material to
select from, men who are not only in
terested in the agricultural interests
of Lee county, but of all the interests
of the entire county. My interests
will continue to be linked with yours,
as the interests of all should be link
ed around this power zone. You
have never allowed religious or polit-
ical prejudice to mar the progress Of
your meetings, nor any of your plans
or projects, ana if you continue along
these lines your meetings will grow
in interest and influence, year by
year.
The first farmers institute was held
here February 81, 1906. That will
make this the eighth annual meeting
This year you have added the Short
Course and one more day to your pro
gram, which gives you a three days
program instead Of two, a.; heretofore
Your executive committee has beer
fortunate enough to secure the bes
talent in the state to carry out YOU
program, and with the two evenins
rand three days sessions you will be
able to go over almost the entire
agricultural field and thresh it ou
pretty thoroughly.

SEVENTY-YIVE LIVES LOST

reported killed and hundreds were in
jured, some mortally, by storm of

eastern states Friday. Property dam
age we'll run well into the millions.
Definite advices have been received
accounting for at least 70 persons dead
with reports from points temporarily
cut off from wire communication by
the storm, adding hourly to the list.
Reports show the loss of life was
heaviest in Alabama, the number OF
dead there being already placed at
twenty-seven with additional fatalities
reported but not confirmed. Lower
Peach Tree, ALA, was practically wiped
out.
Two are dead in Indiana, three in
Tennessee, two in Ohio, two in New
York, one in Michigan, two in Louisi-
ana, twelve in Mississippi and one in
Texas.
Accompanying the death lists are
estimates of the injured totalling more
than 200 with additions coming in at
brief intervals.
The storm swept with startling sud-
denness dlagonally across the country
from northern Texas TO western Penn
sylvania and New York, bisecting the
Mississippi valley and moving north
eastward across the Ohio into thegreat
lake region.
The storm was one of the most de-
structive of the year and rarely equalled
in the extent gifts sweep and damage.
Buildings toppIed before the blow in
nearly dozen states and death lay all
along in its wake.
The property loss was heavy all
along the storm track. Estimates of
the damage from Indiana and Michi-
gan alone aggregate $2,O00,00O, about
evenly divided between the two states.
Early reports of losses ranging from
S25, 900 to S50o, 000or more from various
sections indicated that the total would
reach large figures.
