proved and brick sidewalks being laid.
The University grounds consist Of sig acres
located about mile from the Courthouse square
Eighty acres of beautiful high pine land have been
set aside for the campus, an area which will insure
ample room for all purposes.
The Board OF Control has given much time and
study to the matter of laying out the grounds and
providing sites for the prospective buildings and
drveways that while the scheme of arrangement will
be satisfactory and convenient the identifying OF
the grounds may not be neglected 1t is the intent

At the extreme eastern end Of the campus will
be placed the buildings for the homes of the in

field and parade grounds will be located.
About the administration building will be grouped
the various buildings TO be used instruction halls
The Tdor gothic architecture, which prevails as the
college type, has been adopted
Many driveways have been planned that access
may be given TO any portion Of the campus. The
front driveways are now being cleared and bordered
with liveoaks and waterOaks placed alternately
while other improvements will be made as rapidly as
possible.
Another driveway is being made This is in the
rear and leads to the horticultural grounds and the
experiment station. The latter will be an important
part OF the new University as Congress, during this
session has increased the appropriation so that in
five years 1t will amount to $4,000 annually, instead
of $l5,OOO as at present
Though the plans for the greater portion of the
work Of building the University are but yet In out
line the scope OF the project indicates the magnificent
realization OF the future and promises facilities for
higher education Of which the Floridian of today
should consider with pride.

SOME ODD NESTS.
Ingenuity Displayed by Some Birds
in Providing Places for Their
Young.

There was a time many millions OF
years ago, when birds built no nests,
but did as some specimens are doing
at the present time, when the ostrich
continues to lay her eggs in the sand
Of the desert to have the Matching done
by the rays Of the sun. The Talegalla
turkey OF New Holland also follows
the old custom of covering up the
the earth with feathers in the manner
so that the eggs may be Matched by
the heat engendered by decomposition.
On account Of the temperature of the
earth having become gradually colder
and because eggs have no warmth OF
their own, the birds later on were
compelled to cover the mounds dug in
eggs with decayed vegetable matter,
