Tlie Teachers' Institute.
The work of the sixth annual teachers'
institute came to a close last Saturday,
and the fruits of tins work will be re
vealed as the schools progress during the
year. It is certain that if the same
earnest efforts are made by the teachers
in the school rooms as was made by each
and every one in the institute, and the
instructions w hich they received thereare
adhered to, there will he a marked ad-
vancement in the school work of the
county. The enthusiastic interest in-1
stilled by the instructors, Profs. Dennett
of the ( hadron academy ana Jones 01
Hay Springs, from the start, was the
principal factor which made the institute
a success.

The display of grain. , both threshed
and in the sheaf was excellent
and far exceeded in quantity and
quality any effort ever made in the past.
The collection of native grasses was not
nearly so good as last year, but it win
hold its own in pretty gfl hhaie w ith
other county collections. The corn was
line, consisting of a large number of
varieties, of good quality. When the
vegetables were taken up they were a
aeries of surprises. Potatoes, beets,
onions, parsnips, carrots, radishes, toma
toes, cabbage, and, in fact, almost every
thing that is grown was represented and
the quality of the very liest. Turnips so
large that six could not be put into a

Commissioner Welter was in tow n on
