talks, and essays on agricultural subject
such as: Resolved That the Holstein j
a Better Breed of Dairy Cattle for tn
Vermont Farmer Than the Jersey
= Maple Sugar Making" 'Alfafa;" ''Con
eervation of Soil Fertilizer and 'Pur
', BREEDS VS. Grades" These programs wer

It ing. The unique feature of this pla
y is that the programs were given entire
: by the students themselves with very III
tie assistance and that this seems to b
the latest thing in carrying the ork G
: the school to the people.
