"I cannot refrain from appealing at this time for stronger support of the Agricultural college and for extension of the work. We reed agricultural high schools, the same as .Minnesota has se cured. A, far greater percentage of our educational outlay should be for the practical in -aahool Instruction. I hope to see the tlmeNvhen every community has Its intense agricultural society, with a school which teaches the young the mysteries of nature, plant life, soil,' chemistry and what moisture and at mospheric conditions accomplish. We should have engineers studying how to utilize more economically water - power near the farms, by transmission of elec trical energy. . Our agricultural schools should -Inspire 'Inventive genius to devel op more farm appliances. All over our state we should have these schools and experiment stations, in which both the young and old could be taught the ad vantages science has developed in mod ern farming, and these should all center upon the greater -agricultural college." ''One of - the most pleasant surprises that we experienced was the growth and prosperity ot the city of Klamath Falls, where each of the delegates enjoyed themselves, to the fullest extent," he continued.
