These ** Weeks ’’ have been observed 80 many years that they have become an established inetitution, They are held deliberately a: a season best suited to the farmers’ own time and every year finds the attendances grow- ing. Farmers need not be told how their business is changing. They need not be informed that agriculture is a science and farm management a busi- ness, They know it is and, knowing it, tne progressive farmer misees no favorable opportunity to learn what the new developments of that science and that business are, Penn Htate alms to acquaint the farmer with just these things. Its ad- mipistiation goes to great efforts to make the sessions not only interesting but instructive. Men of autuority lecture and demonstrale the newest and best things in farming and the best things based not only on theory but on practice. Further the week becomes a great clearing house of ideas as belween ‘farmers. The contact of one farmer and his experiences wilh sapother benefits both. Ebpjoyable entertain- ment is provided and the net result is that the farmer returns to his place re- freshed, instructed, entertained and determined to go back next year, — Harrisburg Patriot. ——————— A ———————— Reformed Uhurch Flanping 400th Asani versary. Plans are being laid for an impoe- ing observance of the four hundredib anniversary of the Reformed Chuich in the United States. The celebration projected by the General Bynod at Lancaster, in 1914, has been given deli- nite scope and character in the acts of the district synods of the church whose sessions have just been closed. Bpecial commemorative services will be held during the year 1917 by all synods and classes at their annual meetings, exercises marking the event will be held in all of the educa- tional institutions of the church and each local congregtion is called upon to hold special anniversary services. The aim is to stir up the Christian consciousness of the entire church with reference to its denominational responsibility at home and abroad. In view of the growing sentiment in favor of the practical expression of the Christian life in national affairs, the celebration will have patriotic as well as religious significance, Every member of the church will be given opportunity to pledge anew his devotion to his mother church and to seal it with a gift to the four Hundredth Anniversary fund for the advancement of Christian education. It is expected that the fund as a whole will reach at least $1,000,000, A Mp STATE AURIOULTURAL NOTES, It is estimated that there are now 540 tractors In use on the farms in Pennsylvania.
