FARM BOYS COMPLETE SHORT COURSE

The fourteen-weeks short course at
the College of Agriculture of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin closed last week,
after one of the best sessions in the
history of the course. The total attend
ance this year was 461, exactly the
same as last year, 172 completing the
course as second year students, and 289
completing the first years work. Some
232 of the second years students regis
tered for the second years work next
year. This is the largest advance reg
istration is the history of the course.
The new features this year, including
poultry husbandry, farm management,
ETC., proved very popular. The ar
rangements whereby the lecture hours
were separated by periods of laboratory
work proved effective in making the
work less burdensome and adding var
iety.

A Plea for cannibaIism.

The physician took a little more
turkey.
2 eve digest turkey easily" he said,
because the flesh resembles our own.
A turkey eats grain, meat, fish, pretty
much everything tasty; We do the
same. and hence human flesh and
turkey flesh are good deal alike.
"Fish digest fish best. Carnivorous
animals, if fed on the flesh OF carni-
vores, keep in the best condition.
When snake goes off it's feed the
trainer soon brings it round with q
meal or two of snake meat
s'These and similar facts have been
proved strikingly by Emil Fisher, the
Berlin chemist. The most digest1ble
and the most economical food, Fisch.
er's experiments show, is that which
is more like the feeder. The most
indigestible, costly and least nourish-
ing food is that which is most unlike
the feeder Cannibalism, In other
words, is the most reasonable food
law, and yegetarianism is the most
unreasonable.

A Movable Watermark.

The "Circle" tells the following

small boys affairs:

as the little family were about to set
out for the Sunday-school picnic. you
run right back to the sink and wash
your face again; and when you come
out don't let me see that black water
mark on your neck!"
A little later, as the mother and
her two children were hurrying to-
ward the suburban trolley depot, the
boy and girl, unable to keep the moth
er's pace, dropped behind.

SONGS VS.. HYMNS.

"I'm a religious man myself-you
understand" he said as he walked
into Prosecutor Geier's office, consid
erably aroused "But is man sup
posed to listen to his neighbor play
ing the organ and singing hymns al
4 o'clock in the morning? Huh?
II go to church just as much as ne
does and my children go to Sunday
school, and | think I'm just as good
man as he is, if / do say it myself.
But this is going too far. He isn't
even a good singer. Honest, he's got
an awful voice"
The neighbor. it seems, gets up al
or 5 and starts long hymns every
morning, accompanying himself on
the organ. Geier refused to order an
arrest.
Cali can suggest is counter irri-
tant,'' he said. Noting the look OF
surprise, he exclaimed "You get up
little earlier and start phono-
graph playing Waltz Me Around
Again, Willie, or oh, Gee, Be Sweet
to Me, Kid, or Love Me and the
World Is Nine or something like
that. Then when he gets mad and
comes to you about it make bargain
with him."
The man agreed and started for a
music store at once.-Cleveland Plain

A MISUNDERSTANDING

We understand that there is provi-
sion in the law which denies the priv
lege of holding no license elections at
less than three-year intervals. -Rusk
County Journal.
Like the lrlShman accused or having
been drunk the night previous, we
"wish it were SO, sir. AS usual, there
is no truth to the understanding" of
the Journal, but it is having the de-
sired effect. A number of license adj
vocates are busily engaged in going
ABOUT town circulating this three year
statement as fact, and arguing that
perhaps the city could afford to try the
experiment of going dry for one year,
but that it's finances would be seriously
embarrassed by three year drouth. !"
If it were only possible to make the
trial for three years instead OF one,
there is little doubt in the minds of no
license advocates that the saloons would
never be reinstated.
The only law which would furnish any
foundation for such canard is the one
providing for the increasing of the Ii
cense fee by the vote of the people,
which provides that such elections shall
not occur more frequently than once in
three years This has no connection
with the voting on the question of iii
cense or no-license" which may be
brought up every year by petition
of ten per cent of the voters.

AN APOLOGY

We are informed that we were in
error last week in stating that the po-
lice had forbidden the shaking of dice
for the drinks. Games of ''black jack"
for the drinks have beer prohibited,
but not dice 0, dear, no! 1t would
never do to put the ban on that ancient
and honorable game, so frequently re-
ferred to in classic literature.
Was it Caesar, who, on crossing the
Rubicon, first uttered the classic cpl
gram, "The die is cast? Or was it
Napoleon? Or was it Joe Cannon who
first gave utterance to it when the Ball
niger investigation was precipitated?
Anyhow, the epigram is classic, poetic
and aesthetic, and we can't afford to
lose either it or the game from whence
it sprung Perish the thought of abel
ishing games of dice.
The untutored mind may find difficulty
in perceiving why one method of gamb-
ling for drinks is better or worse than
another, but not so with the police
force They perceive clearly the ne
cessity of preserving in all its pristine
vigor a game that comes to us from the
dim and misty past, that is associated
with stirring events in the historical
drama, and that has the added practical
element of being a drawing card for
the drink dispenser. On the other hand,
they no doubt perceive that something
must be conceded to the ''high-brows. F"
Some reforms must be introduced from
tipe to time, and especially about this
time of the year 'tBlack-jack'' is
rather local game, and dice can easily
be substituted for it. The transient is
most apt to call for the dice box, and
of course he is entitled to what he
wants if he has the price.

ment of the country in which the work

The Ballinger investigation is devel-
oping much spicy stuff. 1t appears that
one Perkins, connected with the irriga
ton service, was sent about the country
advertising the opportunities offered by
the regions opened up through the
government irrigation plants, at sal
airy of So, 300 per year. He carried a
steriopticon outfit, exhibits of products,
ETC., and carried on an active campaign
for settlers. In itself it seems highly
Objectionable that land in any particu-
lar section of the country should be adj
vertised at public expense, but testi-
mony given before the investigating
committee gives it still darker hue.
1t has been shown that while serving
the government at SO, 800 per year,
Perkins was also drawing $500 per
month from one of the Pacific railroads
1t will require some strenuous work on
the part of the Cannon whitewash brush
to cover such incidents as this.

In letter to the Republican editors
of Illinois, Speaker Cannon reiterates
the assertion that the Republican party
did not promise downward revision of
tariff, and then proceeds to show that
the revision really was downward. Does
this prove that the promise was carried
out? The speaker further asserts in
general terms that the increases in rates
were in those on luxuries, and the de-
creases were those on necessities, but
he fails to specify the schedules. AS
instances of fact we might note that
through changes in schedules the tariff
on wooden goods was increased, while
diamonds were put on the free list.
Doesn' it look as if Uncle Joe were
mixed in his dates?

The expected seems to have happened.
The question of county option appeared
in the legislature some years ago, and
at the session last year became a liveis-
sue Agitation of the question through
out the state has proceeded steadily,
and it has bee plain for some time that
it would soon become an issue in state
campaign. Through the announcements
of platforms by the candidates for the
governorship the question is now defn-
itely before the people. Capt. William
M. Lewis, of Racine, puts the support
of county option as the first plank in
his platform, plainly and unequivocally.
John Strange, of Oshkoch, also favors
county option, but does not seem to
make it so prominent, and H. w. Bark
er, of Sparta, is expected to enter the
arena with county option plank as
part of his platform. Francis E. Meow
ern, of Milwaukee, the other Republican
candidate, seems to prefer to avoid this
issue, as would be naturally expected of
a Milwaukee man. This question is one
of vital interest to the people of the
state, and will undoubtedly play an inn
portant part in the campaign

BONE AGE" ON THE PRAiRiEs.
How Many Settlers Lived While Get

ting Their Claims.
The pioneers of Kansas will never
forget the buffalo bone age" When
central and southwestern Kansas
were settled the prairie was strewn
with buffalo bones. Those were hard
times In Kansas and the gathering OF
these bones enabled the early set
tiers to live while they were getting
their claims broken out for the pro-
ducing of crops.
Nine-tenths of the pioneers OF that
section of Kansas and there weren't
very many at that-had literally
nothing but team and few house
hold goods that they had hauled from
the East in single wagon. Of course
there were no buffalo, for this Yves in
the late 70s, but their bones strewed
the plains, and these bones were the
only thing that had commercial
value and they were utilized. They
were hauled in great wagonloads to
the nearest railway, often from sixty
to one hundred miles away, and sold.
The horns were the more valuable
and they went first. but the rest OF the
skeleton soon followed. There were
no fortunes made by these early bone
hunters, for large load of buffalo
bones brought only from S. to So at
the railroad towns, but the proceeds
from load enabled the settler to buy
a little -four, coffee and occasionally
meat and lumber
