THE HESPERIAN
v
Farm and Dairy School at the University of Nebraska.
The University of Nebraska lias just issued n very attractive
pamphlet descriptive of the School of Agriculture. Every farmer
should write for one. This course in agriculture is altogether
the most complete, practical, and common -sense thing of the
kind that has ever come under our observation. It is some
thing that no farmer's boy or girl of any ambition can afford
to miss. The people in charge of the school realize the fact
that most farmers' sons and daughters cannot afford to spend
tlie time and money required in the preparation for and complc-
tion of the regular college course, but believe that in farming,
as in every other business, education and training pay.
Keeping this in view they have prepared a short practical
course of three months, beginning January 3, 1899, and ending
March 17. It provides for the following studios: Soil tillage,
diseases 'of farm animals, stock breeding and judging, feeding
cattle and hogs, dairying, horticulture, carpentry and black
smithing. An explanation given in the circular of the manner in which
the instruction is given, shows that the student obtains much of
it by means of actual practice and observation. Not that he
Will be expected to do the work of the farm with which ho i8
already familiar, but such operations as stock fudging, milk
testing, creamery operations, tree grafting, treating sick ani
mals, etc. No examinations are "required for entrance. There
is a registration fee of one dollar. The cost to each student
last year for room rent, table board, books, etc., was about
th"irty-8ix dollars.

Are you disappointed when you
order a suit made to measure;
how often are you disappointed
in getting it when you want it;
how often are you disappointed
in the appearance of the goods
after being made up; how often
are you disappointed in the fit as
well as the wear?

Are all ready for you when you are ready for them.
There is no guess work about how the suit looks.
There is not an clement of speculation about how
the garment is made and trimmed and if the Suit or
Overcoat bears the trade mark of Hart, Schafther &
Marx, or Stein-Bloch Co. (by whom the greater part
of our clothing is made) the general snap and style
is far superior to' what the average tailor will give
you for twice our price.
