 SHORT COURSE FOR TEACHERS. 
 July, 1894. 
 
 Our short course for teachers in July, 1893. was a success Th« 
 
 attendance was not lar«e ; but those wL spent the month with u^ 
 
 expressed thejnsel.es as more than satisfied with the attentten and

 the College very peasant and they obtained much valuable infer-

Time.— The course will extend throughout the month of July, com- 
 mencing on Monday, the 2nd, and ending on the 31gt. 
 
 ExfMsnses, Etc.—There will be no tuition fee. Teachers to the 
 number of 60 male or female, will be provided with rooms and 
 board in the OoHege, for which there will be a charge of $12, payable 
 m advance to the Bursar. Washing will be done in the College 
 laundry and charged extra at moderate rates. Sheets and towels 
 four of each, must be provided by applicants for admission. ' 
 
 The surroundings of the College are pleasant, and of such a 
 character that, in addition to the direct instruction gained by attend- 
 ance upon lectures, much valuable information may be acquired by 
 observation in the different departments of the Institution— the farm 
 dairy, arboretum, gardens, greenhouses, laboratories, etc. ' 
 
 Candidates for admission will please fill out the enclosed application 
 and send it to the President at the earliest date possible.
