The FunctionIng and Growth Of
the Institution.

Sketching the activities of the uni
versity's department of agriculture and
asserting there was no measure or
yard-stick by which the influence OF
the department could be specifically
determined, Dean Walter c. Coffey
told a large company of editors, gath
cred at University Farm for their an
nual short course, that the university
owned in the name of the department
of agriculture nearly 5000 acres of
land which with it's buildings, equip
ment, utilities and livestock has an
estimated value of more than
100000.
These holdings are divided, said the
dean, between University Farm. and
schools or sub-stations at Crookston,
Grand Rapids, Morris, Cloquet, Duluth,
Waseca and Zumbra Heights. The
department also has forest nursery
and buildings in Itasca State park,
where a part of its instruction In for
estry is given. The holdings at the
Cloquet station are the largest,
amounting to 1852 acres.
Why all of these schools and sub.
stations? Dean Coffey replied that if
there were but one center for the de-

County Competitive Demonstrations.

One of the most effective ways Of
demonstrating the results Of the girls

clubs arrange for county contests dur.

send individual competitors as we'll as
it's winning team In each class, includ.
ing bread, cake and garment making.
If the county has the garment clubs,
an exhibit of garments is included.
Exhibits of bread and cake are also
often made.
The demonstrations and exhibits
make a very interesting program and
are generally we'll attended by lead

Pertinent Pointers for Practical Farmers
THIS YEARS LAND CLEARINGS
Ten Northern Towns Set Dates For
Special Demonstrations.

The University of Minnesota, COOP
Grating with various county land clear
ing associations in northern Mime
sofa, with the 500 line, Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railways, with
manufacturers Of explosives and land
clearing machinery, and with the
state forestry department, has ar
ranged for the running of land clear

the holding of 10 all-day countrywide
land clearing celebrations and demon

Walker, May 20; Tenstrike, May %:
Little Fork, May "a; Duluth jackson
community, May 25; Cohasset, May
26; Hill City, May 81; Virginia, May
80.
The celebrations will mark the for
NAL opening of the years land clear
ing campaigns in the counties of Grow
Wing, Aitkin, Cass, Beltrami, Koochi-
ching, Itasca and St. Louis. The train
will carry large quantities of picric
acid and dynamite, and full compile
ment of land reclamation machinery.
Supplementing the work of this land
clearing expedition, the university has
similar one operating on motor
trucks and now giving demonstrations
of picric acid shooting in Aitkin, Itas-
ca, Crow Wing, Todd, Wadena, Hub
bard and Koochiching counties. The
motor expedition started In southern
Aitkin county April rs, and has dates
scheduled up to and including June 8.
About one-haf dozen demonstrations
will be given in each county. The
schedule for the last half of the sum-
mer and early fall will provide for
demonstrations in northern Beltramt,
Clearwater and various other counties.
The plan is to keep the motor truck
train going until the ground freezes.
Because it is more flexible than the
railroad train it is designed to reach
small communities in outlying districts.
So far the demonstrations have been
witnessed by from 60 to $50 farmer
folks. -. = ~ -.
