Prof Wheeler, director OF music called
on members Of the institute to sing the
song entitled: "My Danes Lame Frame
Crane to which call everybody nobly
responded, although several OF the ladies'
got their words badly mixed and our
director appointed Prof. Holden to be a
lady and assist them, whereupon the
Prof proceeded TO ACT his part, but her"
voice was wonderful coarse.
AT 3 O'Clock the institute adjourned to
visit "Woodbine Farm owned by w.
ID linn, free conveyance being arranged
for all and the entire mem bership of the
institute was conveyed to bis farm where
they we're delightfully."- entertained by Mr..
linn and his estimable wife.
Mr.. David Shaw delivered an excellent
address on "Woodbine Farm Today and
Forty Years Ago" Delicious fruits OF
various kinds were freely distribute d
MIR. Ilnn is one of the most up-to -da ate
farmers in this section of the state and it
seemed out Of place to see great broad
fields Of alfalfa growing, and the western
states cannok produce better corn than
that which We had the pleasure OF seeing.
Far across the fields could be seen den se
growth OF soy beans. II the farmers Of
Barbour would give to the soil high grade
fertilizer as does Mr.. Znn, they would
raise better crops.
