Three Tisnea as Many Men as
Women at Wisconsin

Nearly three times as many men
as women attend the University of
Wisconsin, striking fact since this
is one of the few co-educational in
stitutions where more men than
women study the liberal arts.
There are $3.50 men and 1887
women enrolled this year, including
1905 men and 977 women in the col
lege of letters and science.
Naturally the school of music has
more women, 143 being enrolled and
19 men.
The professional schools have few
women students excepting in home
economics, where there are 81. In
the college of agriculture, there are
7 women, three of whom are taking
graduate work. In the college of
engineering there is woman, in the
school of medicine 2, in the com
merce course 2, in the pharmacy
course l, and in the chemistry
course l.

There is a bill in the hands of the
Committee on Agriculture in the
Senate, looking to reform in nation
al educational methods through leg
islation extending the work of the
agricultural and mechanical colleg-
es to the public schools in the states.
II appropriates large sum of mon
ey TO be used for federal, state and
local corporations for agricultural
instruction and also in instruction
in trades and industries. This bill
has for it's object to bring about the
cooperation of the three depart
ments of government which have to
do with the general education, the
Department of Trades and Indus
tries, Agriculture and of Home Eco
nomics. 1t is proposed that the
Bureau of Education, aided by the
scientists and specialists of the De-
partment of Agriculture and of the
Department of Commerce and Labor
shall be utilized in making the pub
lie schools throughout the entire
country more practical, more adapt
able and more serviceable to the
country. That the federal govern
ment should cooperate with the
state universities, colleges and
schools in supplying qualified
teachers and uniform text books is
surely desirable. According to the
terms of the proposed measure, two
millions of dollars annually are to
be given to state colleges and Nor
NAL schools for the purpose of edu-
eating teachers who can carry the
instructions in agriculture, trades
and home-1naking to those who wish
to enter these vocations. Three
years from now, according to the
bill, the states are to receive re-
spective shares of other millions to
be used with state and local funds
for the purpose of developing edu-
cation among those on the farms
and in the homes and factories.
Those who are advocating this bill
argue that it is the unique bill in
Congress directed to the problem of
the cost of living. They say that
with the increased production of
farms, the cost of living will be-
come automatically less expensive.
At the present time the federal gov
eminent is devoting more than one
million dollars annually to educa-
ton in agriculture. Those urging
the pending bill claim to see anoth-
er advantage in that they say that
such education will have a tendency
to keep the Drawn and brain of the
country on the farm and that the
drain of this element to the city will
at least in a measure be checked.

Public Roller Towel Must Go

The deadly public roller towel
must go!
In the May issue of THE Cru
sader," the monthly publication of
the Wisconsin Anti tuberculosis
association, campaign is started
to abolish this filthy type of wiping
cloth in public places. The associ-
alton succeeded in putting the pub
lie drinking cup out of business,
the ruling of the state board of
health effective Sept. l, being the
outgrowth of the society's agitation.
The dirty public roller towel is an
other grave menace to health and
constant affront to our sensibili-
ties," the publication declares.
THE roller towel fourishes in the
places where it should not be al
lowed at all-in public lavatories or
hotels, restaurants and similar
places frequented by a large num-
ber."
Zone of the maxims of the anti
tuberculosis crusader is: Wash
your hands before eating If a
towel looks as If it had been used
by a multitude, don't use it. 1t is
more than likely that one consump-
tive at least has wiped his hands
and perhaps his mouth on that
towel. You can better afford to
take chance that your hands are
cleaner, so far as infection is con-
cerned, before than after using a
dirty public towel"
The Crusader says that reform
laws are of little use and are seldom
enforced until their reasonableness
is thoroughly understood, or before
they receive the endorsement of the
people in whose behalf they have
been enacted. AS in the case of the
common or public drinking cup,
the aim of the association now is to
show the public the dangers of the
public roller towel and create a
popular demand for its abolition.
This campaign has already received
much encouragement and it is ex-
pected that the roller towel will
soon be forced to follow the drink
ing cup.

The Revolt of ChicagO's
SubCitizenS

There is a second Revolution
a-brewing in Chicago, and the slo-
gan is the same as the one sounded
by the sons of freedom in 49,
Taxation without representation is
tyranny"
Human Life for May tells the
whole story-tells it in mighty in
teresting fashion too-in an article
entitled Subcitizens of Chicago, -
by Edna Heron.
But the amazing fact is that the
leader of this uprising is a woman,
and that the rank and file of her fol
| lowers are women. This feminine
Washington is Miss Belle Squire,
who fatty refuses to pay her per-
sonal property taxes until she is
given a voice in the government
which levies the taxes What start
ed the rebellion it spread
what famed the fames-how this
young music teacher has fired a
second shot that will be heard
around the world"-perhaps-t these
things make up the framework of
the story.
And now the war is on in earnest.
A host of prominent Chicago wom-
en- have hocked to the fray at Miss
Squire's rallying cry. That she is
not of the terrible Prakhurst"
type, but a clear-headed, intelligent
young woman, who is determined to
stand by her guns and sacrifice per-
sonal desires for the sake of her
principles, the reader will readily
perceive.
The members of this mo Vote,
No Tax" League dub themselves
"subcitizens," explaining that in
this way they are distinguished
from 'lunatics, idiots and Indians. I"

NOxi0us Weeds Menace
Many Wisconsin Farms

Many farmers of Wisconsin do
not realize the seriously increasing
areas of noxious weeds in this state"
says State Seed Inspector A. L.
Stone of the agronomy department
of the University of Wisconsin Col
lege of Agriculture. Most farmers
do not recognize the noxious weeds
when they see them, and allow the
weeds to become we'll established
before they realize their serious
character. Such weeds, which may
be brought in with feeds, farm
seeds, hay, etc., may be rapidly
spread if once allowed to grow and
go to seed. Those who are prompt
to discover the character and habits
of the new weed will save much
labor and worry"
WEEDS UNIDENTIFIED FREE
Any farmer in the state may have
a weed identified at the State Ag-
ricultural Experiment Station by
collecting and sending good sam
pie for examination. Methods of
eradication or control will be de-
scribed, and every assistance given
in preventing any further spread of
noxious weed.
Specimens should be carefully Sc
lected and packed for shipment.
When more than one weed is sent
at time, each sample should be
numbered and the farmer should
keep one of each of the same weeds
and number them to correspond
with those sent in. This will aid in
identifying them after they are
named. Plants should be packed
in damp material so as to keep
them fresh, and flowers and roots
should always be included when
possible. This is particularly true
with grasses, as il is difficult to
identify them without the flowers
or heads. All samples should be
addressed to the Wisconsin Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, Madi-
son, Wis, and marked Weeds for
Identification.

SPIRITISM SAID TO BE
DEMONISM

A most interesting little Brochure
has recently come off the press set
ting forth with Bible proofs that the
communications received by and
through spiritist mediums is of
demon origin The writer traces
his subject through the Scriptures
from the time when certain of the
holy angels became disobedlent.
He proves from the Scriptures that
these fallen spirits deal in person
ating the human dead, with whose
past history, spirits, though invis-
ible, are thoroughly acquainted.
He shows that they also frequently
personate the Creator and the Re-
deemer, commanding their deceived
ones to pray, do penance, etc. This,
however, is merely to lead them on
aud to bring them more thoroughly
under demoniacal control. Some
times breaking down the natural
barrier, the human will, they OBJ
sess their victim, and rule him more
or less to his ruin-frequently send
ing such to the mad-house. Nu-
merous illustrations, Scriptual and
otherwise, are given The price of
the little book is but ten cents; it
should be in the hands of all inter-
ested in spiritism or who have
friends interested therein. Enclose

AN IMTOLERABLE ITCHING

Just about two years ago. some form of humor appeared on my scalp. The beginning was a slight itching but 1t grew steadily worse until, when 1 eombed my hair, the scalp became raw and the ends of the comb-teeth would be wet with blood Most Of the time there was an intolerable itching, in painful; burning way, very much as bad. raw burn, if deep. will itch and smart when first beginning to heal. Bombing my hair was positive torture. My hair was long and tan gled terribly because of the blood and scabs. This continued growing worse and over half my hair fell out was in despair, really afraid of becoming totally bald.
 Sometimes the pain was so great that, when partially awake. l would scratch the worst places so that my finger-tips would be bloody. l could not sleep well and, after being asleep short time, that awful stinging pain would commence and then l would wake up nearly wild with the torture. A neighbor said it must be salt rheGm Having used Caticura Soap merely as toilet soap before, I now decided to order a set of the Cuticura Remedies -CGticura Soap, Ointment and Pills. l used them according to directions for perhaps six weeks, then left of, as the disease seemed to be eradi- cated, but toward spring, eighteen | months ago. there Was a slight re- turn of the scalp humor l con- menced the Cutieura treatment at once, so had very little trouble On my scalp 1 used about che hall cake of Cuticura Soap and half box Of | Cuticura Ointment in ali.
