Prof. Davis, during his teaching

points in the famous regions of

over a day at Louisville, Ky. | went
to Lebanon, Ky. and attended the

to be one of the best meetings ever

the noted Blue Grass country of Ky.
In this section l saw some of the
most beautiful farms and table

that sits overlooking the beautiful
Kentucky river.
I was very much impressed with
| the beautiful landscape on and near
the Kentucky river, and especially
near Boone's Camp, Ky. where the
almost PERPENDICULAR banks of the
Kentucky river reach an enormous
altitude. At this place the landscape
is generally rolling, green valleys
