Another splendid service characterized the evening session.
 The service yesterday afternoon was largely attended and all were pro- foundly stirred by the strong sermon by Mir. Guice who preached instead of MT. Price. There will be a service every afternoon this week at two-thr- ty o'clock and then again at 7:30.

After the routine business of the meeting was transacted. Prof Freeman was asked to address the club along the line of his present work, viz, the di- recting of the experiments to be con ducted on the state farm located one mile east on the Tempe road.

Farmers who have not lived where this grass has wrought the havoc it is capable or doing, do not seem to be aware of the vital necessity of fighting it by every means possible. As yet but little, if any progress has been made in any experiment promising definite and sure results. The professor spoke of the several means that had | been tried, some of which were par tially successful but very expensive. while others had seemed to satisfy certain individuals but had failed with others. The fact that when the farm was purchased it was laden with a bountiful growth of this grass has | be inaugurated and which will at the same time determine the best method of destroying the growth, root and branch.
