that comes readily TO mind how scien-

had accepted the dictum of the wise
men OF a generation past that wheat
growing was gone from Iowa. Yet to-
day, a half days automobile drive out
of Marshalltown discovers great
stretching fields of wheat of as great
yield and of better quality than any
ever raised in the pioneer days when
1owa's main crop was wheat We have
discovered that wheat may be grown
in Iowa today to extreme profit The

bushels to the acre and the thick stand

ECONOMY VS., ART,

Senator Funk, who is a member Of
the new state board of control of edu-
cational institutions, in his Spirit Lake
eRas son. has a word in explanation of
the action recently taken by the board
with reference to the design and CON
struction of any further buildings which
may be authorized for Iowa City, Ames
and Cedar Falls.
AT the time of the boards action
word went forth that the intention was
to sacrifice pretty nearly everything
else, including architectural taste and
beauty, to economy 1t seems now
from what Senator Funk says, that the
Interpretation given TO the action of
the board was not wholly warranted
by actually.
The principal point on which the dis
cussion of the board and the boards
action turned was this, wether to con-
tinue to use as a chief material in con-
struction, stone, which is more expen-
expensive. The decision was in favor
of brick. "All construction stone" ex-
plains Mr. Funk, has to be shipped
from far off quarries. making its cost
excessive. Not only will there be a
marked saving in the first instance, but
money for materials all remain in Iowa
instead of going in large part to out
side localities. Since it seems that
such a change can be made as to gen
eral building policy without seriously
impairing a building scheme of great
beauty and fitness so well established
the board is justified in agreement 10
this end
This is a, considerable modification
of the original understanding of the
boards intention Still, there is a re-
serve about this further expression
from Senator Funk which leaves plen-
ty Of room for the inference that in
substituting brick for stone the board
will not find it inconvenient or inhar-
monious with its purposes to give play
to tendency toward plainness:
SIT is doubtless fair 10 assume that
no member of the new board would if
he could Quakerize any one Of these.
1t viii doubtless do some more work,
and particularly at Iowa City. 10 com
plete commendable building schemes.
1t was the general idea of the board,
however, that with the character of the
institutions so we'll established in
classic architecture and elaborate CON
struction, it might be advisable in fu-
ture construction generally to build
none the less substantially, but of
brick instead OF stone"
The saving 20 be effected by the
change from stone 10 brick may be
enough to justify the move, and pos
sibly the buildings may be constructed
of brick and still De not devoid of art
We hope so. However. lets do not
look upon all building stone used in
Iowa as barbarian with the handsome
historical building at Des Moines be-
fore Us built entirely from Marshall
county quarries. These school build
ings are among the larger evidences of
our state of advancement, or other
wise, that we win leave to posterity.
That should not be lost sight Of Then
there is the immediate utility of beau
". Examples OF architecture worthy
the name are none too plentiful with
US. These points will not be lost on

member OF the board.

The saloon men of this county might
