FARMERS' INSTITUTE WORK 



397 



FARMERS' INSTITUTES HELD IN 1896-7, 



WITH DATES AND ATTENDANCE. 



' The attendance is figured in the following manner : The Secretary of the Institute and the Conductor 

 sent by the Board each reported the attendance by sessions. The estimate is based on the largest 

 number present at any one time of the session. We liave averaged the reports of the Secretary and 

 the Conductor separately, and averaged the results Occasional discrepancies indicate some careless 

 counting. But by the method used we have probably attained a generally fair estimate of the average 

 attendance at each Institute. The attendance includes that at women's sections.
