I'll the last week. they We're out Il great
part Of the time receiving instruction
by demonstration from some OF the
corps OF skilled teachers belonging to
this institution.
These experts have taken a great
deal of interest in the agents and the
demonstration work, and have spared
no pains in their effort to make the
course clear interesting and practical.
This has been source Of great eratifi-
cation TO the men, and they wish
am sure, To extend thanks to all the
teachers. VIII try to give short
illustration OF how the work is done:
In horticulture the men were shown
the various varieties OF pests to trees

devour foliage, and others, like the

given in pruning grating and bud

along those lines, where possible, the
work was shown by actual dcmonstra-

done. AT night the lectures were con-

Money Needed.
The reason they are rot sent out
from Blacksburg is because the col
leee is not allowed q single dollar
for travelling expenses for these men.
AS an illustration OF this: When Mr..
E9gleston came here last summer. he
began at once to receive letters for
men 10 go out among the farmers
throughout the State to instruct on
special subjects. When he found there
vas no money on hand, or TO be had.
for this purpose. so great was his de.
sire TO comply with the farmers wishes
and SO important did Mr.. Eggleston
consider this work that he turned over
the whole amount. $3.50. allowed him
self for travelling expenses.
These calls for expert advice became
SO insstent that the $3.50 was soon
exhausted. He then borrowed money
on his own account, but finding the
farmers continued 10 write desiring
the men TO come and tell them about
fertilizers. lime. dairying. etc very
much against his wishes he had to
write them the truth. that there was
no money, and had to close down on
this excellent work.
The special course on farm drainage
was a source OF pleasure and value TO
the agents. This is something new.
and attracted so much attention and
favorable comment that President Egg
lesion determined to inaugurate a def :
mite course OF practical drainage in the
regular session among the boys.
