dressed the members of the Y. M. C.
A. at their regular meeting Thursday
evening in Professor Schmidt’s room.

Civilization.”
“The farm should be the place
where we bring up nito manhood and
woman hood the ideal American citi
zen,” said the Professor. “This can
not be accomplished in one genera
* tion or in a few years of endeavor.
Our forefathers, the first settlers and
* farmers, were tremendous factors in
4 starting and forming an agricultural
civilization.”
* He emphasized the importance of
keeping the rural population on the
farms and of preventing the popula
v tion of the cities becoming overbal
anced. He said that this reform could
* be made by educating the farmers
along cultured lines as well as tech
* nical, and by introducing business
^ ing business methods in farming.
Professor MacPherson is head oi

[Agricultural College.
