Under the caption Something to
Crow Over" the Palouse Republic. ed
itorially calls attention to the ac-
co~mplishment of the Latah-Palouse-
Rock Creek pig club, and also points
out the value to Latah county of a
county agent like O. S. Fletcher.
The editorial follows:
The parents of the members of the
Latah-Palouse-Rock Creek pig club,

the members of the club who partici-

of higher learning to boys and girls
on the farm are useful ard there is
but one regret concerning their work
and that is that a larger number of
the boys and girls on the farms are
not taking advantage of this training.

those who are assisting him with his
club work are making a fine art of
farm work instead of the monotonous
drudgery it once was considered to
be. Farming is indeed a fine are. Of
all the Laboratories in The world, the
farmer has the finest in which to
work. Edison's laboratory cannot be-
gin to compare with it, for his is only
an imitation of the one in which the
farmer works. The farmers labora-
tory is natures laboratory, all others
are but limitations of nature. All the

The Idaho forestry school draws ,
students from many states through

indication that the work of the school 1
