FARM EXTENSION SCHOOL. Will Be Held in Newberry Beginning August 2.- Every Farmer Should Attend. The Herald and News has -hereto fore printed the notice of the exten sion school work w-hidh it is proposed to do in Newberry under the direction of Clemson College and the United States department of agriculture. The school, because it is intended to be a school for the instruction of farmers and others who desire in struction in matters pertaining to agriculture, will be held at Newberry beginning on Monday, August 2, and continue through Friday. The trustees of the Newberry Graded School have kindly permitted tihe school to be held in the Graded School building and it is hoped that not only farmers but citizens of the city who are interested in the sub jects to be discussed will attend and enocuraae the tanjhers Prof. D. N. Barrow, of Clemson college, was in Newberry last week in consultation with Mr. A. D. Hud son and other progressive. farmers making the necessary arangements. If it is desired the professors in this school will igrve lectures at night using stereopt-icons and c'iarts il lustrating their lectures. We would .think that these stereopticons lectures would be very interesting and largely attended. Announcements as to these, however, will be made later. Interest in agricultuiral matters in this county has increased very great ly in The last few years and as a re sult the farmers are making better Crops, larger yields per acre, and iving more attention to the conven iences and comforts of their homes. This school will do much to increase this interest and it is hoped that the farmers will appreciate what is to be offered t1hem and that as many as pos sible will attend. Arrangements should be made to serve picnic dinner on the grounds, and we hope that the people in this city will cooperate with the farmers in ma-king this extension school work a decided success. Newberry has the distinction of be ing one of the very few counties in this State whieh will have the oppor tunity and privilege of such a school, and they should show their apprecia tion by their presence an-d interest. From Clemson college the follow ing lecturers, who are experts in their lines, will take part in this extension school work: D. N. Barrow, . G. G. Ainslie, A. F. Conradi, J. H. Burgess, E. Barnett, and D. W. Daniel, and from the UJnitel States department of agriculture, R. R. Welech and J. T. Campbell. The following is t'he programr: ePROGRAM Of Extension School Work.
