The receipts of the Yale football team
for the season were $4,000. In the game
with Harvard $4,000 We're taken in, and
at the Princeton game $4,000 more We're
secured. Reference to interest figures
shows that an endowment of $1.S75,O0O
would be required to contribute to Yale's
treasury sum equal to that which the
football eleven brought home. 1t is pos
sible that the college of the future will
lean for financial support mainly upon
the strong arms of their athletic and in

Another great improvement In spe-

its varied branches, kiIt0s and grades.
This has attained such degree Of per-
lection that n crop that was once ma
nipulated entirely by manual labor Is
now in some places never touched by
hand, from the planting of the seed to
the weighing of the yield.
1t would .be difficult indeed to men,
ton one item in a subject like this that
would be of more general interest than
others. The thousands, we might say
millions, who visit the Exposition must
each make their individual selection
and follow where their inclination
leads them. If they have time enough
Mt their disposal, they will, no doubt,
find what interests them most, and, no
matter what it is. they will find it
represented in manner That is at once
comprehensive and valuable.

AGRICULTURE.
HOW 1T WILL BE REPRESENTED AT
THE PAN-AMERICAN.

The Most Elaborate Display of All
Interests Connected with the Soil,
Embracing Every Product of the
Farm and Articles Manufactured
Therefrom.
Since prehistoric times agriculture
has been the most important industry
in all American countries. In the
United States about one-half of the
population is now engaged In sons oc-
cupation connected with the cultivation
of the soil. With proper consideration
of these vast and growing interests,
the managers of the Pan-American
have dedicated more than half of the
Exposition space to the products of
the farm and the many articles manu-
featured therefrom.
The Agricultural building Is one Of
the largest and handsomest on the
grounds, while the Dairy building,
with it's contents, is a fair in itself.
Sixteen separate buildings are devoted
to live stock besides a model stable
that is practically and scientifically in
advance of anything so far attempted.
Besides all this, one-quarter of the
great Liberal Arts building is devoted
to food products, and many of the ex-
hibits in other parts of the building
may be traced directly or indirectly to
the soil.
The Stadium with its one-quarter
mile track will be devoted at certain
times to the exhibition Of live stock,
including many kinds of animals not
generally considered in the latitude Of
Buffalo as belonging to the farm.
One of the most elaborate Horticul-
tural buildings ever planned stands in
a conspicuous section of the grounds,
which will be stocked with such lux
urious assortment of fruits from every
section of North and South American
countries as to easily outclass any for
mer attempt in this direction.
Forestry is represented in charac-
teristic building, built of logs, which is
in itself typical Of natures spontaneous
outgrowth for the preservation and con-
servation OF moisture. Exhibits con-
tanned in this odd structure will show
how subtle is the connection between
successful farming and a proper forest
preserve.
In the windmill section will be shown
many varieties of the latest and best
samples of this useful power generator,
together with useful applications of
this inexpensive energy to the relief
and profit of the farmer In many
branches of agricultural business.
We now come to the Machinery and
Transportation building, which Is 500
feet long by $50 feet In width, every
Connecticut western news., 1901-06-06
foot of which Is replete with elaborate

foot of which Is replete with elaborate
decorations in both design and color.
No machinery exhibit ever had such
provision made for it's reception, and
no former collection in this line, wheth-
err farm or general, ever merited so
much attention.
This whole building will be alive with
motion of every known variety-circu-
lar, oscillating, compromising, cam, &C.
centric ellipse, epicyclic and almost eV-
cry other motion known In modern me-
chanics. Most Of these intricacies will
be found embodied in the different me-
chanical movements that are instru-
mental In tightening the American
farmers labor, thereby placing him at
an advantage in his inevitable compe-
tition with cheap labor in Europe.
Machinery that is more intimately
connected with farm work Is housed
in the Stadium, as this structure alone
affords sufficient room for the size and
diversity Of this exhibit. Floor space
to the amount of $4,000 square feet in
this modern coliseum is provided
with electric power for the purpose of
driving the many agricultural ma
chimes displayed in this building.
Machinery is represented here that
prepares the soil, sows the seed, culti-
Yates the growing plants, even to weed
ing the hoe crop. and finally harvests
the ripened product, separates the kerr
mel from the stalk and divides the seeds
into grades, as required.
Lichens and MOSES from the far
North, hardy north temperate grains,
fruits and roots, temperate American
Indian corn, winter wheat and their al
lied products, us well as Southern rice,
Kaffir corn, cotton and a thousand 9TH
er modern necessities, will all have
their respective connecting mechanism
representations in this elaborate ma
chinery section that Is destined to tell
the story of our modern diversified
country life In a much more eloquent
manner than our vocabulary Is capable
of doing. Besides these general divi-
sions, specific cases are carefully con-
sidered. Irrigation is such an impor.
tant adjunct to modern farming, even
in the sections that are not considered
arid, that especial machinery is now In
practical use that few years ago was
never thought of.
For leyenng the ground q machine
called plane Is used. 1t is simply a
huge bit, or knife, Of steel suspended
on long frame, supported fore and
aft" by wheels. In use 1t shaves OF
the higher places and deposits the
earth thus collected In the lower places
or depressions. A comparatively level
field Is thus reduced to series of ia
bles called water levels. These tables
are then irrigated at intervals, as re-
quired, during the growing season, as
the water on ground thus prepared
may be made to flow even in drill
marks.
Undertaking is often a necessary
accompaniment which adds consider
ably to the expense, though, If proper.

The enterprise of Porto Rico is evil
denced by the preparations that are
now being made for it's participation in
the Pan-American Exposition at Buffa-
10 next summer.
The residents of this new possession
of the United States are wide awake to
the fact that their interests will be we'll
served by a display of the Islands re-
sources. An appropriation of $4,000
has been made for a building and an
exhibit. The building, which will have
a desirable location in the Court of
State and Foreign buildings, will be In
the form of a kiosk, a one story strsc-
ture, with a cupola, 80 feet in height.
The building win be constructed en-
tirely Of native woods of all varieties,
the floor being of hard wood thing. 1t
will be quite imposing, the Moorish
style of architecture being followed.
In the kiosk will be shown the work
Of women, such as embroidery, drawn
and lace work, ETC., in which the wom-
en- of the Island excel There will also
be a coffee and cigar stand, where Por-
to Rican coffee will be made and served
by charming Porto Rican senoritas.
The kiosk will also contain the offices
of the Porto Rican commissioners, and
it will be general headquarters for In
formation concerning the country.
The Island will have 1000 square feet
of space in the Agriculture building
and the same space in the Horticulture
building for exhibits.
Most of the space allotted to the Is
land in the Agriculture building will be
occupied by comprehensive exhibit of
sugar, coffee and tobacco IN various
stages of growth and manufacture.
