There's a lot Of fun in watching
properly fed pigs, calves or lambs
gov
The dairyman who constantly
thinks Of his cows, talks of his cows
and even dreams Of his cows makes
much money.
Whether sheep anil dogs can thrive
in the same npiehborhood depends
wholly dpon the character Of all Of
the dogs.
AIfalfs and exercise is a splendid
combination for brood sows at THU
tire of the year. Plenty Of alfalfa
but not too much exercise.
The big majority of farmers who
have stock that is registered are max
ing money. This is hint to those
who have no pure-breds.
By means OF silJ the sweet juici-
ness Of the corn is kept through the
winter, and i good dany COW turns it
into dollars. Build sIio.
Scatter few oals about for the

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.

A largely attended meeting was
held in the Court House in La Plata
on Tuesday and Professor Charles
:. Richardson Of the Maryland
Agricultural College, made a telling
address in behalf Of the Million
Dollar Apr ipriation asked for he
College. Professor Richardson spoke
eloquertly Of the accomplishments of
the College, its needp, and Of its;poor
support as compared TO other colleges.
The following resolution indorring
the appropriation was unanimously
ainp,ed:
WHEREAS;-The yer increasing
need for agricultural investigation aud
instruction is constantly Ibecomiag
more generally recognized as one of
the most necessary attributes to the
future development, progress and sue
cess Of our State, and the welfare aud
happiness OF her people; and
WHEREAs:-The people Of Mary
land have come to realize that this
knowledge and information can best
be disseminated through the Aglieul-
tural College aud its co-worker, the
MARYLAND Experiment Station, which
institutions have already rendered in
estimabe servics to lie farmers Of
Maryland, and done much to add to
her material advancement; and
WHEREAS;---These Institutions
are engaged in the great, important
al d Invaluable work Of building up the
farm, and improving economic, home
and social conditions in rural commun-
tiles, aud while receiving liberal en-
dowments from the Federal Govern
ment, are but sparingly dealt with on
the part of our State and because of
which inefficient appropriations have
been unable to render that high de-
gree of service which has character
lied the Agricultural Colleges of other
States where the Legislatures have
been more generous; lack of support
which has tended to narrow and con-
fine the sphere Of usefulness Of our
own Institutions; aud
WHEREAS:---In order to attain a
greater state o. efficiency and cover a
larger field Of usefulness to the Agri-
cultural and kindred interests Of the
State, the Maryland Agricultural
College is new applying to the Mary
land Legislature for an appropriation
of One Million Dollars, to be paid in
i've annual installments Of 5000, 0OC
each, with an annual sum for mainten.
ance, beginning ar $4,000 and gradu'
