This is probably the first school of its kind devoted to horticulture 

 in this country. With no precedents to guide us, we shall probably 

 make mistakes, but we shall all do our best. It will always be a 

 pleasant memory that we have participated in a pioneer movement. 



The day exercises will aim at specific instniction in particular 

 subjects. The evening exercises will be popular illustrated lectures. 



Everyone is invited to attend the various exercises. Persons have 

 the privilege of enrolling themselves as students for the purpose of 

 receiving personal aid upon the points under discussion. At the 

 close of each day's exercise the students will be questioned upon the 

 subject. This questioning is not pursued for the purpose of ascer- 

 taining the student's knowledge of the exercise, but to elucidate the 

 subject under discussion. During this exercise, also, the student 

 has the privilege of freely asking questions uj)on the topic under 

 consideration. It is expected that the instructors will not be inter- 

 rupted with questions during the course of the exercise. 



Each day session will be opened with a lesson upon observation. 

 Students will be given specimens, as indicated in the program, and 

 ten minutes will be allowed for examination of them. The students 

 will then be questioned as to what they have seen. 



Students should provide themselves with note-book and pencil. 



Roll will be called immediately upon the hour set for meeting. 



Printed synopses of all the day lectures will be distributed to 

 students, 



"While most of the instruction deals with fundamental principles, 

 special applications will be made to the grape whenever possible.
