Increasing Fees .

There has recently been marked
increase in the fees which the Univer-
sity OF Wisconsin exacts OF the stu
dents in that institution. There is a
suspicion of tendency to encourage
the patronage of the wealthy to the de-
triment of the poor boys of the state, in
the administration of the school. An
institution that costs the people at
large as much as the State University
does, ought not to require fees Of It's

collect 5000 or more for tuition fees. is
radically wrong and bars from its priv
ileges young men who otherwise might
become valuable students.

The Kearsarge was ordered to Blue
fields. but was wrecked on Roncador
reef. Early in February the Nicara-
guam government sent a military
force to the Mosquito strip to head of
the threatened invasion, and on Feb.
IL took possession Of Bluefelds and
proclaimed martial law on the Mos
quito reservation, an act against
which CHIEF Clarence Of the Mosquito
Indians protested. Warships were
sent to the scene by the United States

The Nicaraguan government finally
established another chief in place OF
Chief Clarence. and he was recognized
by this country, but not by Great Brit

United States that she asserted no
rights of sovereignty over the Mos
quito strip, but respected the para
mount sovereignty of Nicaragua.
Chief Clarence became fugitive
and sought refuge in Jamaica. The
Nicaraguan government banished
British Vice Consul Hatch and nine
others, who were made prisoners.
The British government demanded
that the Nicaraguan government pay
Mr. Hatch $4,000 and make suitable
reparation to other British subjects

The Wisconsin Dairy school is one
of most successful institution OF its
kind in Ameica. The novelty of its
purpose and its unusal methods and
equipment make it very curious and
interesting. The institution offers
courses OF study in theory OF dairying,
besides being equipped to give practi-
cal instruction in all kinds of dairy
work. The school is sustained at great
expense, but it is believed that the
outlay is justified by the advantages
resulting to the dairy interests Of the
State.
The school is planned to accommo-
date one hundred students. besides
those taking courses in farm dairying.
The course of study covers a term of
twelve weeks, and during this time
the student is required to pass some
ten written examinations and several
oral ones. The main school building
is structure three stories in height.
wi tn frontage of ninty-fiye feet and
depth OF fifty-four feet. 1t is provided
with an office, a room with lockers
where each students work clothes are
kept, bath rooms, a large creamery
room. cheese making room and
large room for Observation-Disclosures
ing, lecture room and large labor
atory. The building cost with its
equipments $4,000. The creamery
room viii give you good example Of
the completeness with which the var
ious departments are fitted up. 1t
contains, for example, six large sepa-
rators of the latest pattern used for
study and for practice Besides
these are churns, butter wor kers etc.
The cheese room is provided with eight
steam-heated cheese watts of three hum
bred pounds capacity, each Of
which has its own complete
set Of cheese making apparatus
The school day begins at eight O'Clock
The student first attends a lecture of
fifty minutes in length. and aftelward
report in snow white working suits
and white caps for practical work
One section is instructes in milk tast-
ing in the labratory and another in
the mysteries of the creamery. In all
there are eight lecturers and nine
teachers Some idea Of work accom-
plished may be suggested by the fact
that two tons and quater OF milk
are required daily for the use of the
school
The student who has passed all the
examinations of the dairy school
can become can didate for dairy
certificate. But to secure this he
must work in creamery or cheese
factory for not less than two full SEES
sions Of seven months each, AID lar
ing one of these he must have entire
charge of and be responsible for the
cleanliness and success of the factory
He must, besides, report the operation
of the factory monthly, and his fac
tory is regularly visited by an author
lied inspector. Alter all these re-
quirements have been fulfilled the GER
titicate is granted.
The school contains still another de-
partment, which is devoted to instruc-
ton in farm dairying. The object of
this department is to turn out practi- |
cal dairymen, as required for the farm.
these students study the problems of
the feeding and breeding dairy stock, |
and general farm management
