Williams given before the New York State Fair, Oct. 8, 1858. " T he Agricultural College of the state of Michigan has been in actual operation since May 13, 1857. Its faculty consists of a President and four Professors and it has accom modations at present for 100 stu dents. It was created in obedience to a requisition of the revised con stitution of 1850, and organized under a law of 1855. T he farm consists of 676 acres. Its design is to unite physical with mental cul ture, to afford the student a chance to earn in part his own education and a chance to apply himself, free of sciences and practical arts that may render him a scientific farmer and an enlightened T he effort has attracted citizen. the attention anxious Union.

M. A. C. CHORUS. At the first meeting of the chorus last Monday evening a large number were present and the officers for the year were elected as follows :• President—Mr. E. I. Wilcox. Secretary—Miss Florence Bar low. T r e a s u r e r — M r. W. Brown. Miss Freyhofer, the Director, re ported on plans and prospects for the year—which are very promising. T he chorus will study the Oratorio " St. P a u l" and rehearsals will be gin next Monday evening. N e g o tiations are pending with the Her bert Witherspoon quartette, which is considered the best quartette in the United States, and if possible arrangements will be made with these artists to sing for us at the annual May Festival next spring. F u r t h er announcements regarding the plans will be made in the near future. All students, as well as members of the Faculty and residents of Col- legeville, w ho wish, are cordially invited to join the chorus. A nd should be the students who sing urged to join an organization whose work is elevating and educative, aside from giving an hour of recrea tion each Monday evening. Credits are given for the work. Admission fee for the year is $1.00, which also entitles each member to a copy of the oratorio. Come and join the chorus next Monday evening. Rehearsal 6 145 >—7 :45 'n College Chapel. A' CHURCH ORGANIZATION AT M. A. C F or some time the question of a church organization at M. A. C. has been discussed and in the past form few weeks it has taken on and shape. Articles of faith have been drawn up by the committee appointed some time ago, a copy of which will be placed in the hands in East Lansing. family of each Approximately 60 families repre senting 2=;o neople outside the stu dent body have declared themselves in favor of a church organization here. Several meetings have been held to get the opinion of the people as to the denomination which should be established. T he result seems to favor a peoples union church as sociated with - the Congregational. F or two Sundays services have been held in the school house and will be continued. Preaching at to a. m. S u n d ay school at 11 :15. Last Sun day a memorial offertory in honor of the late Prof. Bogue was taken up in Sunday school which amounted to $16.48. This will be presented to the church organization as a start towards a church building. DEBATING CLUB. Quite a number of new men joined the Debating Club at its first meeting last Thursday night. T h e y, together with most of the old men interested last year, in the club transacted the routine business nec essary to the successful beginning of the work for the coming year. Prof. Hedrick gave an interesting talk along this line of the clubs' work. T h e re was no regular pro gram, it being the first m e e t i n g; but for the coming T h u r s d ay night a live question has been chosen. T wo members of the faculty of the English department will be ranged on opposite sides of the question. Come and witness a lively " scrap," and get in on the general discussion afterwards. R e m e m b er that you do not need to be a member of the club to attend. T he church is a shelter for the sinrier, but not for his sins. FARMERS' CLUB. its T he F a r m e r s' Club met last Tues day night in regular meeting place, the agricultural building, and listened to a very interesting talk by Pres. Snyder on the subject " Y o u ng Man Go E a s t ." T he president pointed out very clearly the many reasons why young men should no longer go west or south for the best cited farming propositions. He many cases where valuable farm land could be had at luring prices, especially the N ew E n g l a nd states and in Pennsylvania. Many of these farms had been abandoned, not because of lack of fertility of the soil, but because of lack of children to carry on the work. in T he club has assumed the respon sibility of entire charge of the an nual meeting of the American F t d- eration of Agricultural Students to be held this fall at the International In order Stock Show at Chicago. to carry this project out successfully," it must send a big delegation to that meeting. Many members make a strong body, so the club needs the earnest support of every agricultural student. T h e re is to be a finer program this fall than ever before, so all take advantage of this practical lecture course, and come to the agricultural building every Tuesday evening at 6 130. J. S. W I L L S. HORT. CLUB. T he students large number of who gathered at the first meeting of the club last Wednesday evening were favored by an interesting and highly talk by Prof. Fletcher, on " Fruit Growing on the Pacific Coast, Particularly Straw berry G r o w i n g ." instructive to In the the fruit. One of the most famous fruit re gions is the Hood River Valley, in which there is 4,000 acres of fruit, 1,000 acres being devoted to straw berries. the irrigated districts the plants are set on ridges four to eight inches high so that the water leaves does not come up that and T he patch is set out in F e b r u a ry comes into full bearing in May, and so con tinues until November, producing about eight times as much as a fair crop for Michigan. Only one vari ety of berries is grown, as there is no need of early and late varieties. T he marketing is done altogether by associations, and the shipping is always by car lots. As only first class fruit is shipped a locality soon acquires the reputation of producing insures a good ready market and good prices. fruit and thereby All old and new students who are interested in Horticulture are cordi ally invited to meet with the club in room at 6:30 the Hort. reading every Wednesday night.
