AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES.
Professor Hunt, of the college connected with the Ohio University, repels the insinuation that the graduates and ex-students decline practical agriculture, and attempts to trace personally their course. He succeeds in finding 300 of 336 that have gone out, of whom 137 are farmers, gardeners and dairymen, forty-one are creamery operators and cheese makers, eighteen are professors in agricultural colleges and experiment stations, fourteen are farm superintendents or employes, fifteen are in other colleges, twenty-five are women and only forty-six, or about fifteen per cent, are found in other occupations.
