CUPID PREFERRED TO
HIGHER EDUCATION
That Dan Cupid does not approve of
college education was conclusively
proved last week when Miss Elizabeth
Dean, of Owensboro, who was on her
way to attend the University, met her
fiance, J. R. Laswell, also of Owensboro, and the knot was tied.
The news of the marriage was received by Miss Mabel Daugherty, of
Lexington, with whom Miss Dean had
made arrangements to stay while attending the University. Her telegram
follows: "Can't come to school. Joe
and I were married this morning."
The bride's parents did not exactly
approve of her marriage, not because
of any prejudice against Mr. Laswell,
but because of her youth. Her parents decided to send her to the University until the affair blew over. But
fate intervened. Miss Dean and Mr.
Laswell met in Louisville, the knot
was tied, the telegram sent and the
old saying, "Love will find a way," was
again proven.

NO ENTRANCE EXAMS
A one year's course in practical agriculture has been inaugurated this year
by the College of Agriculture for the
benefit of the farmers of the State who
desire a further knowledge of farming, but who either do not have the
time or the preliminary education required for a four years' course. Two
restrictions, will be .put .on those .who
take this course, namely, they will not
be allowed to take part in athletics or
to Join a Greek letter fraternity.
One hundred and thirteen acres is
to be embraced in the school proper.
The Van Meter farm adjoining the
Experiment Farm, on the Tates Creek
pike has been leased for five years.
Here practical farming is to be taught
from September to September without
other vacation than the Yuletide. The
initiate from the city will be1- taught
the fore and aft of gearing and which
end of the plow is to be hitched. The
man from the farm will learn fundamentals and get into the calculus of
the science called farming.
In addition to the Van Meter place
the students of the new order are to
have the two hundred and forty-thre- e
acres of the Experiment Farm for
range. However, they may not turn
and hoe and plant here. This great
agricultural mosaic is the work field
of science, and lessons written over
its experimental acres may be only
observed.
The College of Agriculture Is to be
the school room, supplemented by
the hall and laboratories of the Ex
periment Station.
The beef cattle barns, the dairy, the
piggery, the conservatory, the or
chards, the serum plant, the animal
clinic, the sheep barns, the poultry
yards, the greatest insect serum plant
in Kentucky and other institutions em
braced in the station system, will be
available.
"W. D. Nichols, professor of Farm
Management, will act in the capacity
of student advisor, and all matters
affecting the disposition of time, and
general distribution of the work by
months and seasons will be left largely to his supervision and direction,
subject to the approval of the Dean.
The entrance examination
barrier to the University-w- ill
be no longer a bar. A knowledge
of common school branches Is essential to the best work, but no questions
even are going to be asked about
r
"credits" of any Bort. The
course is open to all Kentucklans,
young and old, rich and poor alike.
No standards of the University are
to be lowered. A degree 1b just as far
r
off to the graduate of the
course in practical agriculture aB before the University reached out a
hand to help him with his problems.
The short course leads to no degree
just individual efficiency and State
uplift.
Reasons for putting the ban on fraternities and athletics are in no sense
capricious. First, it Is figured that

the person who avails himself of the
opportunity is going to be In dead
earnest and will take up the work for
the greatest good. He will have no
time for either football or smokers.
A reason of greater weight is to
prevent abuse of this serious business.
In some .institutions Bhort courses are
made vehicles for ambitions and objectives which reflect discredit. Young
men who have wanted to wear a fraternity pin or to play on a college
team have been known to matriculate
for no better purpose. On the other
hand, athletic associations in search
of team timber have been known to
matriculate a good prospect for no
other reason than that he might
strengthen
a football or baseball
squad. With the entrance examination suspended the temptation would
be greater.
In this school the students are going
to be concerned only about farming.
The course is designed to carry in
formation into the lives and homes of
those who can never hope to avail
themselves of the advantages of uni
versity training as resident students'.
The course is a perpetual affair and
may be taken over and over if one
desires. The instruction will be seasonal. In September, among other
things, the students will sow Intercrops aid harvest the corn and tobac
co and orchard products. Each suc
ceeding month will have its activities
and its problems. During the shut-iperiod theoretical matters will be
taken up in class room and laboratories.
The subjects embraced in the practical course are animal husbandry, including beef and dairy cattle, dairying, horses, mules and jack stock,
sheep, swine and poultry; the common
diseases of live stock; soils and crops;
botany, horticulture, farm managemarketing,
ment, farm mechanics,
economic entomology, chemistry, bacteriology and other phases of modern
Any person of ordinary
agriculture
endowments without regard to age
can gain a comprehensive working
knowledge of successful,
.farming through this agency. In short,
the practical course promises to be
the door to a new era in Kentucky.
