Horton. O. R. It is discouraging to the friends of agricultural education to learn that a bill now under consideration by the Michigan legislature actually contemplates the abolishmenc of the famous and splendid Agricultural college of that state! It seems incredible that a proposition of that kind could be seriously made by sane men, but the press dispatches indicate it so, and the reason as stated is that “the college has outlived its usefulness and that the 640 acres of land occupied by the institution may better be employed in the raising of sugar beets by the convicts of the state!” That is reform with a vengeance, surely, but that no such measure will ever be allowed to pass through the legislature, notwithstanding the number of ignoramuses who constitute a part of its membership, is certain. We may trust Gov. Pingree to kill it if it does.— Farmer’s Voice.
