And people all over town should
get after the weeds and keep them
down" the special officer continued
Recent rains have produced an un-
usual crop of weeds, and both appear
ances and sanitation demand that they
be kept cleaned up"
This is also an excellent time to set
Bermuda grass, too, Mr. Clayton advis-

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
IN STOCK JUDGING
Attention Also Given to Other Subjects
Pertaining to Farm improvements;
Aggie College Taken on
New Life

"The eight days meeting of county
agents just held at saltwater was with
out a doubt the greatest meeting for
the advancement of agricultural inter
ests that has yet been held in Oklaho'
ma" This statement was made by 0.
G. Cooper, who returned last night
from the agents meeting. He met
with the Commercial and Farm bureau
last night and made an informal re-
port ON the work that was carried ON
at the Saltwater meeting.
The meeting at Saltwater was an
eight days school for county agents.
Fifty-nine OF them were there, and
they spent the time not only In listen
ing to the experts Of the country on
every subject with which they deal,
but also in obtaining each others ex-
periences in the county work.
1--WE fellows got two things from
the meeting Mr. Cooper said this
morning. "One was a lot Of informa-
tion on subjects with which we deal
every day. and the other was lot OF
inspiration from seeing what the fifty
eight other fellows in the state were
accomplishing There was hardly q
man there whose work did not excel
in some particular department.
A large part OF the time at this
years meeting was given over to m.
struction on stock Judging, 3, order to
prepare the agents to take charge OF
township fairs. instruction along this
line was given for four days. Every
other department OF the work was
touched upon during the eight-day
meeting. Among the subjects were
dairying, diseases of domestic animals,
salesmanship for the farmer, pig clubs,
making a seedbed and selecting the
seed, marketing problems, problems Of
providing pasture, poultry breeding,
cooperation with county officers,
spraying OF fruit trees, the county
agents relation to the rural school the
holding of township fairs, poultry judg-
ing
The program was given under the
auspices of the extension division OF
the Oklahoma Agricultural and Me.
chanical college, in cooperation with
the United States department OF agri-
culture. One OF the special features
was Chautauqua course, IN which
some of best talent OF the country was
brought in to talk TO agents on their
own work and allied subjects. An en-
ioyable feature for Mr.. Cooper was his
meeting with Ralph J. Lamb. acting
president OF Bacone University, who
officiated at the wedding OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Cooper sixteen years ago. They
had not met since.
Not only was the agents meeting a
great improvement over that OF last
year, but the whole Agricultural and
Mechanical college seems to have TAX
EN- on new life, Mr.. Cooper declares
"A campus that was formerly grown
up in weeds has been transformed in
to flower gardens" he said and new
ystem and new energy seems to have
seized upon the entire institution.
