Agricultural Commencement.
University and Lincoln people were
treated to a novelty last night, It be
ing the first graduation exercises of
the School of Agriculture. A fair
sized audience witnessed the exercises
In Memorial .mil.
After a brief preliminary program,
Dean uurnett. n a neai auuress. in-
troduclng the speaker, gave a brief re
view of the progress of agricultural
education in the United States rom
the founding of the first schoolto the
present time. This education, this con
rpntlnn. had its orlcln In the east.
Gradually these Institutions' found their
way westward until" today we need not
go very far to find the best equipped
institution just across the Missouri
river, in the great mate of Iowa.
Professor CurtlB gave the address or
the evening, (fntitled, "Modern Train
ing for Agriculture. He said In part:
Civilization and agriculture have been
defined as synonymous. In all ages,
and In a.i lands, civilization has pro
gressed when agriculture progressed.
The successful agriculturist of the fu
ture will bo the one richly endowed
with brains. There is no need of
showing that to be succeBBful one needs
training. This has been proven time
find time acain. Agriculture is the
science of sciences. We educate for
it because it Is economic. It pays.
For Instance, a lawyer goes to books
and he knows that the case pending
will hinge on precedent. The same is
true of the farmer. The experiment
station 1b to the farmer what the books
were to the lawyer. Within the last
decade the agricultural colleges have
advanced. Why not before? The
land was rich, and there was plenty of
it. The extensive system was prac
ticed. Now the lands are all taken
up no more free lands. New and
Intricate problems have come up. We
need better methods; higher returns
must come in order to afford a profit.
In other words, the intensive system
must be practiced. Agricultural edu
cation is not cheap, but expensive.
Things wortn having are always ex
pensive. Laboratories are needed,
where practical demonstrations can be
made. Agriculture needs the labora
tory rather than the library method
of studying. A farm well equipped and
everything up to date Is needed. To
expect a student to familiarize himself
with the habits of plants and animals
without necessary equipment is tne
same as expecting an artist to paint
n rortnln landscape without seeing it.
The chief value of an education de
pends on a knowledge of how to use it.
Most graduates Btart too high in life;
they fall all because they did not want
to be degraded, as it were, by starting
at the bottom. No man can too thor
oughly understand every detail. Start
afc the bottom, and study each and
every detail. The first years may be
hard rubbing for bread and butter,
but you will have1 a good foundation
built for after life.
Certificates of graduation were given
the following: Fred Henry Beckford,
Utlca; Arthur Madison Bottorr, Gret
na; Herbert William Davis, Lincoln;
Earl Parmenter, Kenesaw; Chester
Dale Perln, Lincoln; Allen Burnet
Sohus, Lincoln; Edward Elmer Stef
