a greater opportunity for advance
ment, than that of agriculture.
With the establishment of agricul-
tural Colleges, and experimental sta
tions all over the country, comes the
demand for specialists in this branch
of science.
With the opening of the College OF
Agriculture of the University OF
Wisconsin Sept. rs better opportuni-
ties than ever before will be offered
to students OF agricultural science.

as leading specialists in their lines.
The newly organized departments
of plant pathology, economic ento-
mology, and experimental breeding
will offer courses during the first
semester. The new equipment of the
poultry department will greatly i'm
prove the instruction III the care of
this class of live stock. Work is
proceeding rapidly upon the new
greenhouses for horticulture depart

tural colleges in the country have
had no difficulty in finding perman-

the subjects of truth, love

Tent ST., ping not Odidoul Sleeping
Tent sleeping is not equi TALENT
to outdoors sleeping. The common
idea that a tent affords ven tiDation
through the fabric is absurd. The
reason that sails are made of canvass
is that this cloth is impervious to
the very stiffest wind" says bull
let'n issued by the Wisconsin Anti
tuberculosis association.
''Chis is one of the harmful miscon-
captions growing out of the crusade
against consumption" the bulletin
continues. ''This great error has
been responsible for the deaths of
many patients who could have re-
covered had they been more wisely
advised.
Fresh, pure air is most impor-
tant factor in the cure of consump
ton. Buff it must be obtained in the
right way and by proper means.
Many consumptives believe that
sleeping in a tent will help to cure
them The tent affords tolerable
substitute for a more expensive
building, and this is it's ouly virtue
in housing the consumptive.
Those who are we'll and desire to
to avoid the disease by getting plen-
ty of fresh air and sleeping outdoors
also believe the tent an ideal resting
place. How can fresh air get in
and foul air get ont through fabric
like canvass?
Much harm results from the fail

Pr HISTORIC RUINS.
Like Arizona, the territory
OF New Mexico is famous for
its geology and ior its pre-
historic ruins, Its geology
tells of millions Of years of
world making, and affords ex-
amples of how even the solid
rock may grow. The face Of
the Sandal mountains, which
lie tow the Rio Grande.
shows a record of 5000 feet
of perpendicular geology, each
foot of which may have been
thousands Of years in the max
ing.
west OF Mount Taylor, to-
ward the Zuni reservation,
erosion has had a ssgigantic
playground, and it is said that
nowhere else on the earth has
it played such phantasies,
The teeth of time, wind and
water have been busy for
more million years than the
geo!ogist can estimate.

1t is said that New Mexico

only about 80 denizens of the

will have fallen, and that a
noble race will then live only
in tradition.
Race suicide has become
an epidemic among the young
