Show A FARMERS' INSTITUTE TRAIN President Widtsoc of the State Agricultural Ag-ricultural College and the Superintendent Superinten-dent of College Extension work have made a request from the railroads for a couple of cars that, if secured, arc to be fitted up for Farmers' Institute work this1 year. One of those cars will ibc used as an exhibit car, the other for a lecture hall, properly equipped with stereoptienn, charts, tmblcs, .etc. The idea is that these cars shall be hitched on to the rcguicr train, go to a station and remain over for 24 hours, leaving then for the next station. In this way all of the scct;on of country found adjacent to the railroads rail-roads could be visited in about nine weeks. There will be four lecturers, a cook and janitor on board, and continuous con-tinuous sessions will be held at .each station, so that alt the people may have an opportunity to hear the program. pro-gram. If the present plans carry, the train will start in Cache Volley early in January and continue through until March. It will be seen from these plans that the Institute work in Utah is being organized along serious, enduring en-during and comprehensive lines. It is becoming an effective agency for creating an interest in Agricultural 'education in this state. |
