COLLEGE SPORT.
How It Might BE Cloansed Of the FeA.

lures That Mar 1t.
In my Judgment the following
would go further in cleansing college
sport and giving it healthful ma
tional tone than restricting UNIVERSE
ty athletics to the academic depart
ment:
A man is eligible to membership OF
a varsity team:
l. When he is a bona-fide student,
regularly enrolled on tho university
register, and in good standing.
2. When he has not been a member
Of any other university or college
team, or played on u class team at
any other college or university.
3. When he is taking the same
number Of lectures as are prescribed
Ia the academic course, either in one
Of the professional schools or as a
regular student of the university in
any other capacity.
4. When he has not been a mem
Der Of the university team more than
four years.
5. When, If he is challenged, he
PRODUCES certificates from the faculty
Of his university showing him to be
pursuing the required course.
6. These rules to cover football,
baseball, rowing. track athletics, and
all other intercollegiate sports.
There has been no attempt in these
rules to cover all the details, but
only to suggest basis from hich
to control the evils, says writer in
Harper's Weekly.
As the reformation proposed Is d.
rected against the men who have
been brought to college solely on ac-
count Of their athletic ability, 1t
seems the desired end will be OBJ
tanned by coercing them alone. The
absence of any supervision regarding
the number Of hours taken, ETC., has
thrown the professional schools open
to this class Of men.
The man who goes to a certain uni
versity to play football or baseball is
not Inclined to study, and he will not
go if he knows he must study and
secure certificate from the faculty
that he is an honest student in good
standing before becoming a member
OF the team. 1t is not fair, and Il
seems to be a narrow policy, to ex'
clude all members of professional,
schools. Many enter direct from pre-
paratory and other schools, and grad
yates of the academic department no
infrequently use that course as G
preparation for the study of the one
they may have chosen as profession
1t is unjust to bar out the hones'
student, and it is unnecessary If {
certain number Of hours is prescribed
for every man on q university team
1t would be necessary, OF course, TO
members of league to make tina
number of hours an average of'thO
academic courses of the several uni
versities in the association. l SHOULD
add also a rule prohibiting member
of baseball teams from travelling
about during the summer with ath
letic or other baseball mines.
With all channels of Offering "in
ducements" effectually closed, an
the membership of teams limited
university undergraduates, he futur
Of honest, pure sport would b
assured.

Butter.-Butter is a condensed pro-
duct. Nothing can be made or grown
on the farm which brings as much per
pound. Farms remote from the market
and communities far from railroads,
can send butter from the farm or
creamery with the least possible ex-
pense. The dairyman can condense
tons Of fodder and crops grown on the
farm into dairy products and send
them to market in compact and port
able form.-Ex.

Scaling Prlcea for Cow.

The North Carolina experiment sta
ton has evolved an idea that is wor-
thy of adoption. 1t is that cows
should be bought and sold at price
based upon their milk production.
Many a northener has Thought that
far, but how to apply in fixing scale
Of prices tallying with the idea has
been farther than they have gone.
This is what the tar state professors
have undertaken, however, and the
scale formulated is as follows: Pay
for the COW $12 for each gallon Of
three and half per cent milk that
she gives a day. To this add or sub
tract dollar for every fourth Of one
per cent fat which 1t tests above or
below three and half per cent.
Suppose the cow gives two gallons
day Of three and a half per cent
milk. She would be worth $24. If it
tested three and three-fourths, she
would be worth one dollar more for
each gallon, or two dollars more. II
she tested four per cent, she would be
worth two dollars more for each gal
lon, or four dollars more, making her
value S2S. If she gave three gallons
day of three per cent milk she would
be worth s36, less the deduction fol
being below standard. The deduction
would be two dollars per gallon, OF
Sc, and subtracting this from $36 would
fix her value at $50, or 50 more than
the COW giving two gallons of four pei
cent milk. This rule recognizes the
correct idea, but whether it is just
right is more than we can say. 1t GER
tainly is in the right line, for the value
of the COW depends upon the amount of
butter-fat furnished.-WaYerly Repub'
llcan.

Income from MISUNDERSTANDING
brings in a constant income. The man
who sells crops Of any kind has to
wait until he can market his product
once a year. There is little satisfaction
in this. 1t is unbusiness-like to go
without cash fifty-one weeks and then
have a lot of money come in at one
time. The dairyman has an income
nearly or quite fifty-two weeks IN the
year.-Ex.

Pure Water.-An abundant supply Of
pure water within reach Of the hogs
at all times is indispensable, but the
water can be in the yard to which
the hogs have access. Shade is also
essential in the summer. and nothing
excels a tree for this purpose. But in
the absence Of trees a building Of
some kind should be provided and a
floor is Just as essential as roof. l
consider a bed among fine dust highly
injurious to swine, for, unlike other
animals, the hog, when he sleeps, lies
with his nostrils close to the ground
or floor, and it becomes all important
that in breathing there is no dust that
can be inhaled.-Ex.

there are few onions to be had here,

The Phoebe Record of the 9th instant

grade will require to put it in condition
TO receive ties and rails. 1t is found to
be in fairly good shape after having
lain untouched for upwards of five
years. Though several of the proposed
lines across the country ignore this
grade, it is more than likely that the
first road to build will utilize it. 1t

less be had on favorable terms. The
question of interest hereabouts is,
which direction will the road take after
reaching Meadow Valley Wash. Will
it build on the present grade past
Phoebe, through Bristol Pass, down
the valley there, touch at DeLamar,
and proceed southwest or proceed d.
rectly down Meadow Valley Wash to
the Muddy, thence southwest. via Las
Vegas and Keystone to Marvel, the
present terminus OF the Nevada South
ern with a branch to DeLamar, some
80 miles, if necessary. For a through
line, the latter is the most feasible
route, and would be 100 miles shorter
than the line through Bristol Pass.

AUSTRALIAN SALT HUSH
what It Is and Methods OF Growing

In view Of the great interest now be-
ing taken in Australian salt bush (atri-
pier semibaceaium), the new forage
plant for alkali soils, Doctor Devol Of
the Experiment Station at Tucson, ARR
IONA, sends the following brief method
Of growing il:
The seeds are flat, somewhat heart
shaped, about one-tenth Of an inch
long and Of a brownish or redish green
color. II covered in wet soil when
fresh they are apt to rot, but sown be-
fore a rain and lightly covered with
soil, or preferably covered with grass
or weeds and kept moderately moist
they will terminate readily. They may
be started in boxes or hotbeds and
t~ransplanted to the field but plants
grown in this way do not resist drouth
so well as those planted where they are
to remain. While young the plants
require watering two or three times,
but when well established they will
resist quite severe droughts. Although
a perennial plant il grows so rapidly
that n cutting may be obtained the
first season and two the following sea-
son. 1t will grow in soil having more
alkali than any other plant valuable
for forage, and unlike most plants grow
ing upon such soil il has a PROSTATE
habit, growing to a height of but s TO IL
inches and spreading over several
square feet Of ground. Single plants
have been known to reach a spread OF
l6 feet, this, too, upon very alkaline
soil. IL is estimated that from three
to six tons per acre of dried hay may
be produced. Sheep and hogs relish
it green, and when mixed with about
one-third it's weight of other hay, hor-
SEES and cattle eat it dried.

there is no vacancy in the Office, while
others hold TO the contrary and claim,
that under the constitution, the Cover.
nor has not only the power but IL is
his duty to make the appointment.
The Governor informed a Gazette re-

the matter decided by the Supreme

appointment until the question Is set
tied by that tribunal.
