THE PROGRAM. 



The interest taken by the farmers in this 

 convention was equal to that of our pre- 

 vious meetings. In addition to the asso- 

 ciations which have been meeting here 

 during Farmers' Week, thea'e were or- 

 ganized this time the Missouri Draft 

 Horse Breeders' Association and the Mis- 

 souri Farm Management Association. 



For the first time in the history of these 

 conventions, the Agricultural College, up- 

 on the suggestion of the State Board of 

 Agriculture, arranged a four days' short 

 course in practically every department of 

 the College ; and this course was put on 

 in lieu of the regular institute program 

 heretofore held. During the evenings the 

 program was arranged as much for en- 

 tertainment as for instruction. There- 

 fore, the report of the meeting is not so 

 well adapted for filling up the Annual 

 Report. It was quite impossible to secure 

 a report of the consecutive lectures given 

 during the day, and only those available 

 for the evening meetings are herewith pre- 

 sented.
