already filled. Is it, then, wise economy, is it economy at all, for a State so crippled in its resources as ours to employ two men to do the work of one and to attempt two feeble institutions?for distributing a force only enfeebles each division?instead of strengthening and endowing one ? Experience elsewhere has shown that separate agricultural colleges are expensive luxuries. The one in Michigan has cost over $1,000,000. The one in Mississippi (only established in 1880) has cost over $300,000 already. Why not build up and remedy the defects of the existing college and give it the means of doing the work expected of it? No one regrets more deeply than the able President of the State College che State's past inability to develop it as fully as its importance demands. Some of the sciences, notably those most important to farmers, Chemistry, Botany, Mineralogy and Surveying, are taught practically and theoretically, as I learn, at the State College. As rapidly as means will permit provision will be made for applied work in other sciences. The College has just secured the detail of a very promising engineer officer of the U. S. Navy, who will act as chief of the Department of Applied Mechanics. He is already on the ground . busily engaged in equipping his department with a steam engine, with lathes and tools for thorough courses of instruction in woodwork and metals. While the college does not propose to turn out skilled mechanics, it does intend thoroughly to teach not only the principles of Mechanics, but to give so much practical work as may be necessary to enable the student completely to master these principles, and to learn the use, economy manufacture and care of tools and machinery. It is the especial regret of the authorities of the college that it has no well equipped farm-which could be used f forinstruction in the Agricultural branch in the same way as the laboratory for Chemistry where the principles imparted in the lecture-room could be illustrated and enforced in the field and barn and dair$\ Manual labor would not and should not be required for its own sake as is done at "Gen. Lee's College," but the student would have just as much practice as might be necessary to give him a thorough mastery of the principles involved, and no more. As I do not wish to encroach too long upon your time I reserve my further reasons for the superiority of branch agricultural colleges for next week; at which time ^ I shall discuss Capt. Tillman's beau ideal ^ of a college, etc. Chemistry. For the YorkTille Enqnirer. THE FARMERS' CLUB OF BETHEL. Pursuant to adjournment the Farmers' Club of Bethel Township met on the 13th of March. The following officers were unanimously elected for the ensuing year: T. W. Campbell, President; S. J. Clinton, First VicePresident; D. G. Stanton, Second VicePresident; E. D. Thompson, Secretary; R. J. Cook, Treasurer. Executive Committee?R. T. Gillespie, W. J. Anderson, Joseph M. Adams, L. B. Brown, L. K. Armstrong, S. D. Simril, N. B. Campbell, J. E. M. Steele, J. M. Bigger. The following rules to regulate the offering and awarding of premiums for the year 188G were adopted: 1. We, the enrolled members of the Farmer's Club of Bethel Towuship, agree to offer four premiums?two on upland cotton and two on upland corn. To raise the money to pay the premiums, we further agree that each member, whether he compete for either premium or not, shall be assessed and nav to the treasurer of said Club the sum of one dollar; and also each member who contends for the premiums on the two different crops, viz.: cotton and corn, shall be assessed an extra sum of fifty cents. 2. Three-fifths of one-half of the money so raised by these assessments shall constitute the highest premium on cotton, and shall be awarded to the member who makes the largest yield of lint cotton on one acre of upland. The remainder of said half shall constitute the second premium on cotton, and be awarded to the member who makes thenext largest yield of lint cotton on one acre of upland. The remaining - half of the money raised by the assessments shall be'divided in the same manner as the first, and shall constitute the premiums on upland corn. The largest premium shall be given to the member who raises the largest number of barrels of corn on one acre of upland, and the second premium for the second largest yield. 3. Each contestant shall measure his land in the presence of one member of the executive committee and one other witness, and the said member of the executive committee shall keep a correct record of the measurement for examination by the Club. 4. Contestants shall be allowed to prepare and manure their lands and cultivate their crops according to their own judgment; but they shall be required to make a correct statement of the same, and a sworn statement to the Club of yields. 5. The reports shall be examined and the premiums awarded by a committee of three disinterested men of the county appointed by the President of the club. The amount of this premium will depend upon the number who enter sis contestants. Each member who contests for this premium is required to pay the treasurer fifty cents, which amount so raised will be given to the member who makes the largest yield of ^ cotton on bottom land. E.
