OUTING For CHILDREN.

The Associated Charities win send
the first party Of fresh air children to
the fresh air camp in the country on
Thursday, July ?, and every Thursday
thereafter during the hot summer
months. There will be about twenty
five children in the first party.
The fresh air outings are conducted
by the Associated Charities which are
badly in need Of funds for carrying on
this very commendable work. The
children are well cared for on large
farm several miles from this city, and
the wife Of the farmer where the chill
dren are homed is a trained nurse and
the children receive the best of care and
attention.

The question of improving our
courses in agriculture represents it.
self for consideration Just now. II
has been in the minds of the Agri-
cultural Staff for sometime tnat an
effort should be made to make two
additions to our courses OF study that
are Of great Importance, One of
them IS agricultural engineering and
the other poultry hushandry.
In regard to agricultural en-
gineering I am sure much need not
be said Every member Of The com
mlttee appreciates how much a know
ledge OF modern farm machinery
means TO the farmer, and how incom-
plete would be an agricultural course
without instruction in this important
branch
In order TO make this work effec-
tive uere is needed an Instructor, and
q building that can be made comfort
ably warm in the winter time. Such
q building would probably cost from
$1,000 g S2500. 1t could be gradu-
ally eluipped from the Morrill, fund.
An instructor in farm mechanics
could be had for from 81 900 to 81 500
per year and would be a decided adj
dition TO our force Of instruction.
Poultry keeping is one OF the i'm
portant industries of the State. We
could render much additional, effec-
tive service to our constituents by
the establishment of a poultry de-
partment at the College. A plant
suitable for instruction with perhaps
some work of investigation would
cost from $4,000 to $4,000 and an in
structor to take charge of the work
could be had probably for from $1,000
to $1,000. II is likely that this man
could do some extension work and
draw part of his salary from exten-
| sion funds.
Such a department would serve
both the mems and women's colleges
as well as furnish poultry informa-
tion to inqurers in the State.
College Work.
THE work at the State Farm has

fertility Of the soil is improving, and
OF course the orchards are becoming
a greater asset each year The live
stock, especially the cattle, add con
siderably to the attractiyeness of the

to take over the public schools Of that

is not a city, village, town or country bus

prize to Mrs. Jarvis. The beautiful cake
ratified was won by Mrs. John Murdoch
and the candy by Mr.. Crowell.
At about 10 o'clock on Tuesday night
the alarm of fire was sounded when the
flames were seen to proceed from the res
idence Of Mr.. L. devries, which coon be-
came n fiery mass and despite the most
heroic efforts OF the volunteer fire brigade
the entire house was destroyed, together
with practically all Of Mr.. de Vries' furn-
iture and personal effects, including not
only their wardrobe but many very hand
some and costly articles Of furniture, stat
uary and bric-a-brac that were given
him and Mrs. de Vries when they were
married, in addition to an elegant $500
piano and chest of silver valued at $3.50,
and a number of heirlOoms and other
relics of his old home, just brought back
on his recent visit 10 Germany, and
which aside from their intrinsic worth
we're invaluable to him as keepsakes and
mementoes Of his early life.
The cause Of the fire is still unknown,
but is supposed to have resulted from
defective fue. Fortunately the wind was
not blowing at the time, else several
neighboring buildings also would prob
ably have gone, and as lnatter-of-fact the
residences of Messrs. r. Y. Newell and
w. w. Middleton on either side OF the
Inflated house were in greatest danger
and were saved only by the stubborn and
tireless efforts of the fire fighters.
The house destroyed was the property
of Tony Serio and was insured for $1,000,
while Mr.. de Vries carried about $500
insurance on his furniture.
Mr.. and Mrs. de Vries had q delight
full home, which was the scene Of many
pleasant gatherings, and the sympathy
Of their friends lie extended Them in their
misfortune.
