At Jeast ope place has, to an extent, solved this. We refer to the experi- mental farm of the gavernment at Clmgb Grant, Il., the home of the division, U. S. army. ’ Agricul- tural training is one of the important 3 in the wonderful program be- carried on at the army schools at_that point, in addition to thirty- two othgr trades and professions. "'Like all of the other courses at the ' ‘army sehool, the farming instruction is of an intensively practical type. During the winter months, class room work is cagried-on in soil study, crop rotation, farm machinery, and use, stock bree carried on under the directoin of pro- fessional teachers, in steam heated, well lighted class rooms. With the advent of suitable weather, and the ‘enlargment of the schools’ facilities for prattical outdoor. work, much progress has been made. " The farm school consists of four _ hundred acres on which a diversity of crops are rotated in twenty acre units. Small grains, corn and fonxe crops are grown on these plots. the men in their work under the direction of scientific farm ex- rts, each thing they do is explained and the reason for the method ob- served. Thus the men are stimulated to think for themselves and are en- abled to meet their own problems as they will later find them’in civil life. The work in general farming is accompanied by truck gardéning, the ‘vegetables raised being utilized in the camp messes as an agreeable ad- dition to the ration. A complete course in horticulture is being con- ducted in_connection with the six . established orchards on the farm, besides one new orchard -which will bear for the first time this season and a quantity of small fruits which have also been set out this year. _ Pruning, spraying, grafting -and caltivation are taught by men who are experts and the students get ample practice in these lines. A mule barn, sheep shed, poultry} house, hog house, stock judging pa- vilion and implement sheds are being erected at present. The dairy is be- ing remodeled and hog tight fences placed around the farm. All types of farm machixnery are used and the stu- dents are instructed in the care and _useof each. . Traetors are used for . the:work’ . harrowing..and hid-vn*pmger’ care of machinery, a point: on - which a great many farm- era have been lamentably careless, «.The. ; breeds of stock'are ' kept %o that the men may. iliar with the characteristics.and. relative merits of the mln%v es, . The; Jersey, Guernsey, Holstein, = Short- horn, ... Hergford, Aberdeen-Angus strains of cattle give students experi- : ence With both beef-producing and wilk producing breeds. In the hog de- . partment are kept Duroc-Jerseys, Yorkshires, Tamworths, Poland Chinas, and Chester Whites. Sey- eral breeds of sheep and poultry of all kinds complete the animal hus- bandry . complement. «R. L. Leach, formerly of the University of Illinois and a recognized authority on stock, as well as a practical instructor, is £ this feature of the Dean C. B. Waldton, formerly of the North Dakota Agricultural col- lege, heads the faculty and the farm manager is C. H. Pollick, of North Dakota and Cornell. Each branch of the work is in charge of an expert in that particular line. The work at the Camp Grant farm is of a non-spectacular type and of the efficient sort™ that 48 calculated to produce men who can run real farms, not mere show places and un- profitable toys, but real workable farms where old time practical “crop- raising” is made more efficient by application of scientific methods, but also where science keeps its feet solidly on the ground. Many a farmer boy, ambitious to make farming a life profession, but who is unable to afford a course at an agricultural college, will be inter- ested in the new army plan, whereby he gains this education and is paid for it at the same time.

Keep at all costs your First corps where it is; I will mysel? attack on the right and on the left with French troops.” As you spoke you took a sheet of paper to the desk; hastily you scribbled four lines in which you made clear your thought and you handed the note to the fleld marshal. - He read 1t, thought a moment, called a staff of- ficer, and ssid to him: ‘Go and carry out this order.” Disaster was averted.” «s.13¢-13c | ‘Potatoes, per cwt. . .. +$7 Eggs, tresh, dozan ...
