A study of the efforts that have tbeen made by Agricultural and Mechanical Associations at the r. South, would prove interesting to one who has a stomach for that kind -of business; and it might be n- useful to those who are engaged in similar efforts. The agricultural and mechanical industries of the country are the basis on which its prosperity must be built, and the government has made liberal ap e propriations to aid in the encour agement of these industries; yet, as a rule, agricultural and me Is chanical institutions have been re marliably shortlived. In 1862, by what is known as the "Agricultural College Act," ~Congress made a grant of millions ~of acres of public landsto aid in Spromoting agriculture and the me Schanic arts in the States. There are now in the country,.forty-two a Agricultural and Mechanical Col m leges erected, under this Act; but i they are "Agricultural and Mechan I ical" only in name. With perhaps mfour or five exceptions, they have Sbecome literary and scientific in e stitutions. .The Chairman of the' ~faculty of our University stated in 'his last report, that out of the one ihundred and fifty-three -boys at Stending that institution, only fifty' were studying agriculture. Our. farmers are inclined to think that .farming can best be learned on the *farm; they have little confidence in. . scientific teachers of.scientiflc farm Sing, and we are not prepared to say that they are wrong. 1Some years ago, the grange. was -established. It was peculiarly a Sfarmers organization. It not only Sproposed to reform all agricultural eabuses, but it entered the domain of ?politics and, assumed the manage-. ment of affairs generally. For a d 'time the farmers were abla.ze with enthusiasm. They held grange Smeetings, made grange speeches, ate grange dinners, and undoubted Sly did much good; but where now n is the grange ? s . Wherever we follow the subject r, we find the same results. Practi cally, agricultural fairs might as i well be called agricultural failures. Especially is this true of county fairs. The State Agricultural and IMechanical Society is under the management. of energetic business men; it has the advantage of be ing at the Capital; it has horse-rac ing, bicycle riding, side shows, fire works, and a hundred and one other things calculated. to attract money and all classes of men; and yet.the General Assembly, at its.last ses sion, appropriated $2500 to aid this society. Then, what hope is there for County fairs which must be conducted on a strictly moral assis? In order to succeed, they aflneed' sugar coating of something that has nothing to d.o with agriculture. or mechanics. . Aniything that tends 'to induce. our farmers to adopt improved methods of. cultivation, and to im-' prove their stock, deserves enceour agement and .success. On this so count we wish to.see our Agricul tural Joint8Stock Poipany succeed.. But it will take a greatdal ofen ergy and hard work to get anyfl money or sudees pt of any assoA ation othis ind.
