AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
WITH UNIVERSITY
DR.. Sanford Bell a Firm Be-
lever That They Should
Be Consolidated.

There can be no question as to the
economic and educational value OF consol-
tdation of the Agricultural College and
the University OF Utah 1t is in har-
mony with the Twentieth century, not
only in the educat tional but in the husi-
ness world. Educational efficiency de-
mands consolidation. 1t liz to be regret
ted that Colorado made the mistake of
separating her institutions OF higher
learning.
''The whole question is this: Shall The
interest OF the state be sacrificed for that
OF community. Thus spoke DIR.
Sanford Bell. head Of the Department OF
Education in the University of Colorado.
when asked Tuesday afternoon as TO his
opinion on the question which is CON
fronting the State as 10 what shall be
done with tho Agricultural College and
University OF Utah.
DR.. Bell was visiting the University of
Utah Tuesday afternoon. he was espe;;
school, frankly admitting that The Utah
Institution excells the one In Colorado.
and in fact any in the intermountain re-
elon.
DR.. Bell ascribed this superiority in
part TO the fact that the Normal school
is directly connected with the State Uni-
versiJy.. In this way, the students are
which they receive from college profes-
sors but also by the broadening associa-
tlon with students in other departments
OF the institution. In this way the Nor
NAL student will meet the student from
the Engineering school, the Art school
and the Law school,
Continuing along the same line, DR..
Bell went on to say that this would be
one decidedly strong point In favor OF
OF the two State schools,
The young fellow from the farm who
comes 10 study only agriculture would
be very much hroadened by such con-
tact.
Dr. Bell delivered lecture to the class
in educational psychology In the after
noon. The talk was one OF the best
that has ever been given al the local in
stitution on this subject.
DR., Bell Is visiting In the city for
few days on a leave OF absence from the

nized as one OF the strongest men in the

W. J. Burke of scbellbourne, New,

and is a guest of the Cullen hotel,
Mr.. Burke has the distinction of being
about the only man in Nevada whose
stock in trade does not consist of
big mine, which. with development,
would make whole township rich.
Mr.. Burke is thrifty rancher and
stock raiser. To this business he has
devoted his life thus far. His ranch
covers an area of something over three
miles long by more than one wide.

crops of hay and grain are raised.
Speaking of conditions out there, Mr..
Burke said;
s'Times in that section of Nevada
are comparatively quiet This is
principally on account of the unusually
heavy snowfall this season. Up to
short time ago the season was an open
one, and stock was looking fine, Cat
