Africa guiding the rebellion there
against British rule-a rebellion now
almost completely crushed hoped to

Orange Free State was revealed byre
cent testimony at the court martial
OF the rebel Boer General Vessel
Vessels, who surrendered in Deccm-

treason, b.
Early in the trial one Of the cniels
of the MopeH tribe in Orange Fres
State, called as a witness. produced
n letter he said he had received from
Vessels. The letter follows:

ments have shown that by making the
applications at exactly the right time
the foliage of-thc apple may be pro-
tected, hut that this is entirely I'M
practicable on commercial orchards.
and that the only practicable nielaoc
OF preventing cedar rust Is to destroy
all the cedar trees anywhere near
bearing orchards. ~
Encouraging Poultry Growing.
4 During iAe last two seasons the
poultry department has distributed to
the farmers OF tho state over $50 pure
bred white leghorn cockerels and owe,
5000 eggs for Matching. In many
sections the influence Of this infusion
of pure blood is already evident in
the farm flocks. A survey of the ponl-
try industry in Jackson county CON
Quoted during the last summer has
shown the profits possible In poultry
keeping, what methods are most sue
cessful. and where the losses occur
In the present methods OF marketing.
Support Of Congress.
In submitting his estimates of need
ed appropriations for the work OF the
station, Director Sanderson points out
the fact thatit is commonly supposed
that the experiment station is support
ed although by the state. that in the
the past practically all appropria>
for its work have been made by Con-
gress. The .ast legislature appropria-
ted $11,0UU a year for the. work OF the
station. and the entire total appropria-
tons. heretofore made by the state
all OF which have occurred during the
last eight years amount TO only $780,
600. while the federal government APP
PIRATES $4,000 each year.
Need of Scientific Research.
He says, prior to their establish
ment there was practically no agricur
tural science in this country and the
agricultural colleges had been oil. lit
tie real benefit, The present increas-
ed service Of the agricultural colleges
to all OF the rural population through
their agricultural extension depart
ments Is the direct outgrowth OF the
work of the experiment station. for
without the scneitfiv work Of the lat
ter there would have been nobody Of
knowledge worthy OF taking to the
people. We are coming to, realize
however, that we have but very ele-
mentary knowledge Of the sciences
upon which the various phases of the
art Of agriculture are dependent. Diff
fculties. and new problems are CON
stantly arising which battle solution
and which challenge the ability of our
keenest scientists. 1t is important,
therefore, that with the remarkable
usefulness of the agricultural colleges
in spreading a better knowledge OF
modern methods OF farming that 1t be
remembered that. this work will have
no PER-. basis OF success unless
our experiment stations are given
suc< support as to enable them 10
continue in the future TO furnish the
scientific basis for improved agrtcul-
tural methods. =
