gram in such way as to keep every

illustrated lectures on stock judging,
landscape gardening, soils. farm crops,
crop varieties, farm buildings, crop
rotation, rope tying and splicing and
demonstrations of simple surgical
operations for livestock. Agricultural
hikes to places of interest will vary
the routine. "A selected assortment of
films and slides will be projected.

local physicians will make regular in
spections. Prizes will be offered for
essays and stock judging excellence.

POETRY OF THE WAR

Death. In that poem Seeger predict

ly before he received the fatal wound
he wrote q message addressed in q

ca, the nation which had not then
followed him into the war. He plead
ed for the preachings OF Roosevelt
It has little Of the merit OF his more
famous poem, but 1t is interesting
and those who disagree with some of
its sentiment may forgive the author
by remembering Nthe point Of view
from which he was seeing the war.

average American before we got in.
Here Is an excerpt from it:

In 1861 the people of the United
States were being urged to buy gov
eminent bonds much as they recently
have been to buy the Liberty Loan.
Edward Everett Hale wrote some
lines entitled Take The Loan" which
might almost apply to the loan of
1917. Here they are:
Come, freeman of the land,
Come meet the great demand.
True heart and open hand.
Take the loan.
For the hopes the prophet saw,
For the swords your brothers draw,
For liberty and law,
Take the loan.
"Ye ladies Of the land,
AS We love the gallant band
Who have drawn soldiers brand,
