He gave an . f account of the work Clemson is j doing for our people in analyzing j ft*rf il vunt-rvfe. ? ? 1 IlllUCIclCS ilUU soils. The audience seemed ' much interested in his figures \ 1 showing how the quantity of fertilizers that fall below ihe stan- K dard is getting less and less every i year. i Prof. ,1. N. Harper, of the ag- v ricultural department, spoke on J the restoration of old soils, the ^ value of cow peas and other legu- f .ties, the cultivation of alfalfa and 1 corn, and the inoculation of soils. f During these speeches, and us long as they remained on the gound, Messrs Hardin and Harper f were kept busy answerin gt lie ( many intelligent questions asked '] by furmers in reference to the ; subjects discussed by these gentle- f men. ( During an hour's intermission a < bountiful dinner was enjoyed by the entire crowd. After dinner Prof Morrison ' spoke on ind ustria education. * He spoke briefly of the public j school system, its growth, and its needs, earnestly advocating |, compulsory education, of indus- c trial .times demanding industrial t training, claiming that the study 1 of natural Forces is as valuable as c study of dead languages in mentrd training. Prof Morrison dwelt a at t-oinc lengthon the fertilizer ii tax, and of the benefit received tl from it through the work of Clem- H son College. sii Uapt W. E. Ardrey, of Meck-|n lenburg County, N.
