INHERE was. consider iniz the hard 1 times, a very fine " enrollment at- the recent farmers winter course at the North Carolina A. & M. College, there being some 45 'men register- ing. representing practically every section of the" state. . ' From my own experience I wish to commend ,this cotirse to all farmers, young ; and : old.The course,- in - fact, -has come to be one of the recognized ; opportunities: of the fanners of the state, for in these four weeks the men are able to gej useful information as well as to break in new ideas by prac tice. Every young man, and old . as :: well, should avail himself of this op portunity to come and spend a few weeks in gaining what he would oth erwise take years perhaps trying to work out at home. : - v ; . The ; strong resolutions of ' which I enclose you ta copy will tell how ' greatly the men leel they have been benefited and what -they think of the course. - ' Young men do not know what op portunities await them in. these in structions, for iriHhem thev are able to get the Vne . thing that puzzles a majority of the farmers when they attempt to 'read the Government's bulletin's. "What does this mean?" he will ask himself ; but when he has seen or heard a few lectures he can grasp the tables' and statements more readily and thereby get the benefit i of what the Government and experi mental stations are trying to do. And again he;is . brought to see the many little losses; that might be reversed into gains. ' ' " ' . ; : T . - jNo one should get . the false im pression that v he; carr: get all there; is to know about farming in a 'few weeks, but you can get some: mighty good - ideas" in four weeks, and the r greatest gain comes in that you get a foundation, so to speak, to build on. . I will "say 'in: conclusion that I hope every man, the young farmers most ; especially, 'will :avail.sthemselves of . this opportunity aftother year to get : such valuable information at so small cost.
