ARE DISCUSSED AT
To Limit Attendance at the
First and Provide Gen
eral Education.
The curriculum prepared for the district
agricultural schools bj the special commit
tee Wednesday was presented to the meet
log of chairmen of the boards of trustees
sod principals of the various colleges TUurs
dsy at a meeting held In the senate cham
ber.
This curriculum will be discussed at
length by the meeting Thursday, and after
such changes as may be suggested are made
the report will be adopted. It has been
prepared with great pains, and with the ad<
▼Ice of the best Informed workers along
that line.
Governor-elect Hoke Smith was present at
the x meeting, being etpeclally Invited
through a resolution passed Wednesday.
The resolutions also asked the presence and
co-operation of Agricultural Commissioner
T. G. Hudson and State School Commls
•loner W. B. Merritt Governor Smith and
Governor Terrell aat near each other, and
frequently consulted together.
To Limit Attendance.
In addition to the curriculum, the follow
ing resolution, passed at the meeting ou
Wednesday, was presented to the session
Thursday:
Whereas, Eleven district agricultural
schools are soon to be organised In the
state of Georgia; therefore be It resolved
L That the course of study presented by
Professor Stewart be adopted.
2. That for the first year It Is deemed
Inadvisable for the schools to be over
crowded with too large a group of students;
that It would probably be wise for tho
board of trustees to limit the attendance at
first Id order that confusion and mistakes
may be avoided and that time may
Iren the principals and teachers to pen
le organization of the schools.
3. That for the first year It Is recommend
ed that the work of the schools be restrict
ed to the courses of study outlined for the
first and second years, except that mor~ -•*
vanced work be given In the practical
jecta where possible.
Qoneral Education,
4. That while It should be the primary
aim of the agricultural schools to train stu
dents to an appreciation of tho farm and
to develop In them a love for farm life, yet
(t should also be the aim of the schools to
train students to become useful citizen# as
well as good farmers and housewives.
home life of the students should be
fully supervised by the principals and mem
bers of the faculty, who should provide
such Interests outside the regular school
characters of the
men amf women.
, ... .*1 of each echool
should connlder It one of bis primary duties
to maintain a high standard of character
and of conduct among the student body.
6. That the requirements for graduation
may be strict, but that the requirements
for entrance should not be difficult, espe
cially for older students, who need the
practical work and yet may be unable to
stand a difficult examination.
6. That libraries be established, and read
lng rooms arranged as soon as possible, and
that special efforts be Miade to secure books
and periodicals relating to agriculture, liter
ature, history, biography, and books by
Georgians and about Georgia's history and
resources; and further that special efforts
be made to secure and classify and keep In
durable form the pamphlets and book* on
agriculture printed for free distribution by
the United states government, by the vari
ous state experiment stations and by the
Diversity and agricultural collaf—
7. That the following persons,
books soluble for the libraries of the agri
cultural schools. .
8. That the following persons, Dr. Soule,
Professor Crosby. Professor W. D. Smith,
Professor 8tewart and I>r. Hardman, be ro-
uested to serve as an advisory committee
.0 the various boards of trustees for the
purpose of recommend lug sulUble equip
ment for laboratories.
Another Resolution.
In addition to the above, the following
resolution was passed at the request of
R. F. Dnckworth, president of the Farmers'
Union:
'We recommend that the law be strictly
enforced which requires the teaching of
the elements of agriculture in the common
schools, aud that this teaching be done In
connection with school gardens, and further
that tho normal schools of the atate be en
couraged in their efforts to Increase their
facilities for Instruction In elsmenUry ai
rlculture to those who are preparing i
teach.”

AMONG THE CLERGY
-1 am ths wife of a-minister. About
three rears ago a warm friend, an
exemplary mother and the conscien
tious wife of a minister, asked me If I
had ever tried giving up coffee and
using Postum Food Coffee. I had been
telling her of my excessive nervousness
and 111 health. She said: 'We drink
nothing else for breakfast but Postum,
and It Is a delight and comfort to have
something that we do not have to re
fuse the children when they ask for It.’
“I was surprised that she would per
mit the children to drink even the food
coffee, but she explained that It was a
most healthful beverage and that the
children thrived on It. A very [Ittte
thought convinced me that for brain
work one should have food and the
very best of food.
My first trial of Postum was a fail
ure. The maid of alt work brought It
to tbs table, lukewprm, weak and alto
gether lacking In character. We were
In despair, but decided on one more
trial. At the second trial we faithfully
followed, the directions, used four tea-
spoonfuls to the pint of water. 1st It
boll full fifteen minutes after ths real
boiling began, and served It with rich
cream. It was delicious and we were
all won.
I have since sung the praises of
Postum Food Coffee on many, many
occasions and hare Induced numbers of
friends to abandon coffee and use Pos
tum. with remarkable results. The
wife of a college professor ssld to ms a
short time ago that nothing had ever
produced so marked a change In her
husband’s health as the leaving off of
coffee and the use of Postum In Its
place." "There's a Reason.” Read

U. S. IS EXPERIMENTING
WITH CAMPHOR TREES
Washington. May 23.—The depart

phor cultivation Rnd utilization for a
number of yeara In Florida, and has ex
tended these experiments on a small
scale to Pierce. Texas, where the cam
phor tree Is being experimented with as
a windbreak about plantations and as
a possible source of profit.
Tho department Is In no way con

ments have been made concerning the
probable profits of camphor growing In
Texas, figures as high aa 3460 profit
per acre being given. This statement,
the department says. Is doubtless an
exaggeration.

Waahlngton, May 23.—President
Roosevelt heeded the appeal of little
Mary Wagner that her stepfather be
pardoned from the Michigan state pris

married a widow with one vfilld and
told of his past life only when another
child was bom. He continued an hon

Styles come and go; fabrics and patterns
change each season, but the Blue Serge Suit never
loses its hold on popularity. You can wear a blue
serge anytime and anywhere and feel satisfied that
you are dressed properly. The wearer of the blue
serge suit looks and feels cool and comfortable.
Blue serge is so popular that some men own half
a dozen suits—but you can retain your self-respect
with one or two.
For $25.00 we will give you a suit of guaran
teed serge that will be as blue as new next fall
even though you wear it every day from now till
then. And the style and fit of the garment will be
fit company for the quality of the goods.
Other true-blue serges, $15.00 to $35.00.
