RUSH WORK ON NEW CAPITOL.
Building of Walls to Start on Monday
and Trenches Are Ready.

Until now the work on the new cap
itol has been that of destroying the ola
one, and digging trenches for the walls
of the new building. The building up
of the new capitol will start at once.
At the last meeting of the capltol
commission the contract for building
the concrete walls for the new struc-
tire was let to the Foster Construc-
tion company. 1t is understood the
work will be finished by spring. Dur
ing the last few days the contractors
have been on the ground surveying the
trenches, having them wldened III
some places and deepened in others.
To protect the machines from the
cold snow shanties have been erected

the construction gangs. The cement
used is purchased of c. F. Cooley OF
Madison, the sand from the South
Madison pits and the crushed stone Is

THE GRAND TRUNK PACIFIC RAIL
ROAD AND WESTERN CANADA.
Will Open Up Immense Area of Free
Homestead Lands.

The railway facilities Of Western
Canada have been taxed to the ut
termost in recent years to transfer
the surplus grain crop to the eastern
markets and the seaboard. The large
influx of settlers and the additional
area put under crop have added large
ly to the grain product, and notwith-
standing the increased railway facil-
tiles that have been placed at the dis
posal of the public, the question of
transportation has proved to be a Sc
riOuS one.
1t will, therefore, be good news to
everyone interested in Western Can
ada to know that an authoritative
statement has been given out by G.
NJ Hays, president of the Grand
Trunk Pacific Railway, that that rail
way will do it's share towards moving
the crop of 1907 from Alberta, Sas-
katchewan and Manitoba to tide water.
and thus assist in removing a serious
obstacle which has faced the settlers
during recent years. Mr.. Hays, who
has just completed trip from Port
age la Prairie to Edmonton in prai-
rie schooner, distance of 735 miles,
which was covered in eighteen days,
is enthusiastic about the country.
This will be gratifying to settlers in
the Canadian West, even if Mr.. Hays
declines to be bound to a time limit
with the exactitude Of a stop-watch.
The Grand Trunk Pacific road will be
in a position to take part in the trans
portation of the crop of 1907, and that
will be satisfactory to the settlers in
that country when the harvest is gar
nered.
The wheat crop of 1906 in Western
Canada was about 90,000,000 bushels,
and, with the increased acreage which
Is confidently expected to be put un-
der crop next year, it is safely calcu-
lated that fully 1875, 100000 bushels will
be harvested in 1907. The necessity
for increased transportation facilities
are, therefore, apparent, and the state
ment made by Mr. Hays will bring en-
couragement to the. farmers Of the
Canadian West, new and old. The
opening up Of additional thousands of
free homesteads is thus assured by
the agent of the Canadian Govern
ment, whose address appears else
where.

OLD CAPITOL A COW BARN.
Wisconsin May Get Early Building
Now That Owner Is Dead.

Now that Fritz Harvest is dead, 1t IS
expected that the state will be able TO
renurchase the territorial capitol,
which for some years has been used by
Harvest as COW shed at Platteville.
Harvest has lived in Plattevllle
about thirty-six years and was eighty
six years of age when he died.
He came to Wisconsin in 1868, ana
in 1875 bought the 35O-acre farm on
which the territorial capitol was stu
ated. He moved the building from It's
original position and converted it into
barn. When movement was start
ed last fall by patriotic societies to re-
purchase the old capitol, Harvest said
he was not willing to give it up while
he lived. 1t was good enough for a
barn. he said, and it would take lot
of trouble to build new one.

DESIRES MODEL SCHOOL.
President Van Hise Urges Practice
i Schools for Students.

President Van Hise Urges Practice
Schools for Students.
The establishment of model high
school in which students Of the Uni
yersity OF Wisconsin who are prepar-
ing themselves to teach could obtain
practice, is urged by President Charles
r. Van Hise in his biennial report.
This report, which has just been pub
lished, presents the desirability of a
model school among other needs of the
university. Such school, in co-opera-
ton with the department of educa-
ton of the university is necessary IN
order that teachers who go out from
the institution may have practice IN
teaching before taking up their work
in the high schools. In this connec-
ton President Van Hise points out the
necessity of building especially con
structed for the purpose.
IF the department of education is to
build up a course for teachers which
is to have anything like the standing
and influence in the country that have
those of the educational departments
of Columbia university and the Uni,
versity of Illinois, it will be necessary
TO provide a model school for profess
sional training" said President Van
Hise in the course of his report. Such
a model school will serve the same
purpose with reference to the deDart
ment of education that the machine
shops do to the department Of mechan
ical engineering. The model school is
also a necessity for Investigations In
education. 1t cannot be expected that
this department can make important
contributions to the science OF educa
ton until proper facilities are afforded
for such work.
President Van Hise, in the course OF
the report, also considers the efforts OF
the university to be of assistance &c
the elementary and secondary schools
of the state On this point he writes
Another line in which we have de
cided to assist the state is by co-opera
ton of the department of education Of
the university with the office OF the
state Superintendent. Professors 81
this department and other professors
have taken part in various educationa
meetings of the state. Members OF the
department of education have attend
ed county meetings of the schoo
boards with reference to assisting II
the upbuilding and improving OF the
rural schools. The department is tax
inc part in the campaign for the con
solidation of these schools, a change
agreed upon by all as necessary /
these schools are to keep pace VIII
the rural schools in states where con
solidation has been inaugurated. 1t l:
the aim to make the department o
education as influential factor in tn'
development of the secondary ana PR
mary schools of the state as 1t is win
in the university. To do this VIII re
uuire an increase in the number o
members OF the department. 1t Il
clear. however, that the duty OF tn'
department of education is only nal
fulfilled if it is confined to the IN
struction of students at the unlVer
sity."-W.
