to the possibility of the Farmers'

tution: ;
1. To discourage as much as pos-
sible the present mortgage and credit
system.
2. To assist our members in 'buying
and selling.
3. To labor for the education of the
agricultural classes in the science of
crop diversification and scientific cul-
turet, '4
4. To constantly strive to secure
entire harmony and goou will among
all mankind and 'brotherly love among
ourselves.
5. To form a more adequate union
with those in authority for a more
rigid and Impartial enforcement of the
developed specimens of boll weevils
found in his field.
The weevils caught were the oniy
ones he saw but they were on land
where they were thickest last year

VATiE COMMENCEMENT.
New Haven, Conn., "Juno 22.—Vis-
itors are arriving in considerable
number for the commencement week
exercises at Yale University. The
, programme of the week will be in-
law, that crime, vice and immorality augurated tomorrow morning with
may be suppressed. j the delivery of the baccalaureate
6. It would garner the tears of the address by President Hadley. Non-
distressed, uie blood of the martyrs, day will be class day, Tuesday alum-
the laughter of Innocent children, the nl day and Wednesday the day ot
sweat of honest labor and the virtue the graduation exercises. Interspers-
of a happy home as the brightest jew-
els known.
7. This is no political party, and
shall forever abstain 'from even so
much as the discussion of partyism. Yet!
we do not feel It Is right to place
shackles upon the limbs or a padlock
upon the lips of any one who may
wish to discuss for educational pur-
poses the science of government, for
upon this rock all Important structures
must rest for either mental, moral or
financial development.
That the members of the union have
seen fit to construe the last clause of
the constitution to their own liking
is evidenced by the fact that in Mis-
sissippi and in other states local
branches are planning for representa-
tion in the legislative assembly.
An idea of what the results might
ed with these more Important events
will be numerous reunions and
meetings, prize contests and athletic
events.
