The Pennsylvania State Collie ge
has issued bulletin giving full in
formation about the courses of
study offered in the School of Ag-
riCulture and Experiment Station.
1t describes the work required in
the seven four years courses and
the two years course and makes
interesting reading for any one who
wishes to know the kind of train
ing that is given young men who
want to become expert farmers, or
teachers, or experimenters. A
study of the pages of this bulletin
is convincing that the instruction is
most practical. A young man fitted
for entrance to college usually Sc
lects one of the four years courses.
The two years course is designed
for those who want instruction in
agriculture but have not time or
opportunity to fit themselves for a
full college course, or else do not
see their way clear to spend four
years in college. The two years
course can be taken without any
entrance examinations.
Last year the School of Agricul-
ture enrolled IoS men in the fresh
man class, SIS men in the sophomore,
IS in the junior, and I6 in the SEN
ior. The enrolment in the two
years course was 40. Ninety per-
sons entered the winter courses of
twelve weeks.
The bulletin is free. 1t gives the
dates for the beginning of all cours-
es, including the winter courses
and farmers week" Ask for the

President Brown, of the New
York Central Railroad, has been
travelling through the West, and
has returned with the conviction
that the crops will be enormous
both in yield and value. Pe finds
the agricultural prosperity of the
country amazing. The Iowa farmer
is getting ST. 20 for his wheat, 65
cents for his corn and 7 cents for
cattle on the hoof. Those of us
who live in cities are not quite so
enthusiastic over these figures as
the Iowa farmer and the railroad
president, who is figuring on haul
ing most of the stuff to market.
Still, we are glad the farmer is
prosperous, and we know that
insures prosperity for the country.
But few years hence the Republi-
can politicians will be referring to
the great prosperity of the country
in 1909 10 as the result of the Re-

jamestown, N. D., June 6. - Miss
Laura Limnes and Fritz Falk, two
we'll known young people of Buchan-
an, were drowned in Spiritwood lake,
fifteen miles northeast of here yes
terday morning. The young couple

who were camping there, and started
off for boat ride shortly after arriv-
ing.
The boat was found few hours
afterward half full of water and with
Falk's hat and check book in the bot
tom. 1t is surmised that the boat,
which was Of steel, became unman-
ageable, and that Falk endeavored to
save the life of Miss Limnes. They
were engaged to be married June Is,
and both are prominent in social cir.
cles at Buchanan.

Judge Brill OF Ramsey County Restraints
State Auditor From Issuing
Warrants.

st. Paul, June S-The "porl1 barrel"
appropriation Of 5000, 900 for roads and
bridges is declared to be unconstitu-
tional by Judge Hascal R. Brill of the
Ramsey county district court, who
yesterday granted temporary injunc-
tion against State Auditor S. G. Iver-
son, restraining him from issuing war
rants for the amounts set aside by the
legislature.
The language Of the courts decision
makes it certain that a permanent in
junction will be granted by the lower
court, but meanwhile an appeal will
be taken by Attorney General George
T. Simpson to the supreme court to
get a final decision. Until the su.
preme court acts no money from the
fund can be paid for building roads or
bridges.
The injunction is granted on peti
tion of Senator l.. o. Cooke of Waba
sha county, who declares that the
pork barrel" appropriation is not only
poor business for the state, but inval
i'd in law. His contention is sustain
ed by Judge Brill The defendants are

Every post was cut off close to the

wood out and t1oated it down stream.

KING EDWARDS HATS.
Felt Of His Own Designing - Heavy
Headqear of the SOS,

Aeadgear of the SOS.
The king, besides setting the fash
ion in the wearing Of hats, is ar in
ventor of headgear. In an entertain
ing little book called Hints on Hats"
written in 1865 by Henry Melton, the
royal halter of the period. assisted by
George Augustus Sala, felt hat is
described and illustrated which was
designed by the king, then prince of
Wales, as an improvement, on the
round crowned hats then in vogue.
says the London Daily News.
In shape it very much resembles
the soft felts of the present day, but
was covered with plaid OF the same
color as the shooting suit it was to
accompany.
At this time the majority of hats
were made very heavy and strong.
The earl of Harrington, for instance,
whose life had once been saved
through his wearing a particularly
hard hat in the hunting field, used to
test the quality of his hats by stand
ing on them. and rejected any that
could not bear his weight without a
dent.
He was peculiarly sensitive about
their color, and his eccentricity led
him to adapt his taste in that particu-
lar to the object he had in view.
When walking in his garden, says
Mr.. Melton, he would wear a sage
green hat, so as not to frighten the
birdsi
