those unfamiliar with the magni-
tude of Minnesota's Great State
Fair have so far advanced that
those who have learned of the many
new features are in hearty accord
with the management in their claim
that this years fair is to be the
greatest exhibition of agriculture,
horticulture, live stock, dairy, poul-
try, machinery, art, manufacturing,
educational and industrial exhibits
ever presented in the United States.
With one or two exceptions pre-

improved and increased exhibits in

year the beautiful loving cup, do
mated to the school for this purpose
by Henry C. Baker. Nine subjects
were announced to be discussed but
the contestants were not told which
one he or she was to have until
mounting the rostrum. This neces-
STATED preparation upon every top
ic named, and was therefore equal
ly beneficial to all. The subjects
chosen were relative to current
events and as it would be good
thing for all students, and others,
too, to become more conversant
with the questions of the day. we
will give the list as a guide for
study:
l. Recent Trouble in Nicaragua.
2. Polar Expeditions (Cook or
Peary).
8. Some phase of Aerial Navi-

4. Panama Canal.

Even if the tail of Halley's comet
should wrap itself completely
around the earth during the next
few weeks, none of the dire results
predicted seems at all plausible, ac-
cording to Professor George c..
Comstock, director of the Wash
burn Observatory at the University
OF Wisconsin. "The gases which
form part of the so-called tail are
too attenuated to affect the atmos-
phere of the earth in any way, and
will probably not be perceived at
ALL" says Prof. Comstock. THE
particles composing the tail are
probably too small to furnish visible
meteors. 1T now seems improb-
able that there will be any method
whatever of knowing that the earth
is actually passing through the tail,
save by computing afterwards that
it must have done So"

The House Committee on Agri-
culture recently considered bill to
prevent the sale, manufacture or
transportation of adulterated or
misbranded insecticides and flung
icides and there was surprising evil
dence given as to the extent of the
damage to the crops of the country
by insects and fungus diseases.
There was testimony to the effect
that one-ffth of the crops of the
country, or something over
81 800, 100000 are lost every year
from these plaques alone. The
witness in the case was of the opin-
ion that a large proportion of the
insects and diseases that destroy
crops could be suppressed by in
secticides and fungicides. 1t APP
pears that many of these are sold,
but in an adulterated condition, and
legislation is sought for the pur-
pose of securing poison for bugs
and fungus growths on plants.
Interesting evidence was given by
]. H. Hale, the we'll known large
owner of peach orchards in Georgia,
which is the largest peach growing
state in the union. He says that
few years ago Georgia had
eighteen million peach trees,
and today there are not more than
nine millions left. He declared
that some of the liquids used for
spraying had ruined the trees en-
tirely, while others had no effect on
the insects or diseases at all. He
asserted that if there had been a
standard of purity he believed
enormous loss would have been
saved.

There has been much said in crit

Commission, 1t is said that it has
done things that it ought not to
have done and left undone things
that it ought to have dose, but its
recent decision that charges for
upper berths in Pullman cars should
be less than the charges for lower
berths will doubtless meet with gen.
eral approval. The Pullman Com
pany will doubtless appeal, but the
travellers of the next generation, or
perhaps of the present, will in all
probability be benefited by the

A very drastic law for the proven
ton of drunkenness in Washington
and the District of Columbia has
been presented by Senator Calling
er of New Hampshire. It makes
drunkenness in the capital city a
misdemeanor and provides for the
establishment of hospital f or
drunkards where commitments shall
be for not more than two years and
District authorities will have power
to establish such an institution as
an adjunct to the great Insane Asy-
lum above the Eastern branch of
the Potomac. The inmates will be
required to work.
