in June, 1905. j
:On my way back to the city I
stopped at a Chinese laundry. The
proprietor who had a long white
pig-tail and a mouthful of tobacco
greeted me with a smile and I felt
the firm hand-grasp of Teddy Maed-
gen of Model Laundry fame. Pass-
re, Ng on down the street I heard a
familiar voice calling, ‘'Dbn’t you
niver get hungry } A whole hog
a biscuit, hii for a dime.” I
coald hardly believe my eyes for
tljerc with a loaf \of bread in one
hand and a ham in the other stood

^Teller. '
The fair was over and On my way
home I had occasion to inspect some
mining property in the Rocky
Mountains. One of the holes in the
ground which .resembled au old
mine was sending forth large clouds
of smoke from the ftowelsof hades.
I instantly recognized the scent of
ottr Textile Edgineering section.

I was behind on. the news I picked
up a paper and began to read. The
tiikt article I glanced at caught my
eyt. It reau as follows: College

«*BNT.
The Farm Husbandry Juniors
have two and one-half hours prac
tice per -week for two terms in the
Farm Machinery •Depprta^em, ^
Thi* practice is made more prac
tical by three hoars of theory per
tveek which consists ofc lectures.
These embraces the principle* up
on which farm machinery is con
structed, such as the names of the
^different, parts, the kind of work
it is capable of doing and! rnMnnar
of doing it. The points to l* con
sidered in selecting a machine, such
ns strength of material, simplicity
of structure, ease of draft, quality
of work and labor involved in run-,
tiing it both from the standpoint of
the leant and the operator. For
example if takes up a harvester,
giving the name> of the different
irts, the principles upon Whifch it
constructed, nature of the work
4oaq, and details as to putting up
♦nd operating.
i The practice you ipight say is
putting into operation the theory,
in fact, theory would be of little
benefit without the practice, hence
the department has fatm- iaaple-
tpentsof *11 kinds,, such as gasoline
ehgines, binders, harvested, sbred-
dfcrs, grinders, mowers, rakes, hai-
ebws,’ sffeders. etc., of • various
n»akes. *A shaft runs through the
efinter of the building and each
machine can be put in operaticDi fry

gfnes. Two student are assigned

Purdee has been sending out a
seed corn special train over Indiana
lately. The object is to bring dir
ectly before the farmers’ notice the
results of experiment station work,
thereby henefitting a class of people
which take little interest in pub
lished bulletins. The train stops
at scheduled stations along the way
and short lectures are delivered by
experts upon the selection of seed
corn, etc. This method of instrnc-,
tion has proven to be very efficient
in the northern states and should
be taken np ia tlie southland.
