During the State Formers Insti-
tute at Manhattan, December Fl to
January I, Doctor Schoenleber will
make a demonstration of the use of
this serum to the thousand or more
farmers who will attend this conven-
ton at the College. The following
week the Kansas State Veterinary
Medical Association meets in Man
haitian, and a more detailed demon
stration of its application and value
will be made. Doctor Schoenleber
will explain its value and use at the

The above press bulletin. conveys
some idea of what the K. S. A. G.
is doing in the veterinary depart
ment, and while Meade has never
been afflicted with hog cholera, it
might be brought in from the east.
Also it will call attention to the fact
that good advice may always be had

PARKS OF AUSTRALIAN CITIES.

Australians, with fine climate,
believe in enjoying themselves, and
there are plenty of facilities. Thus
in Sydney there are parks and
squares and public gardens with
total area of 1886 acres. Sixteen
miles from the city-a shilling ex-
cursion train fare-is the picturesque
National park, containing $3.50
acres, preserved in their natural
state. A similar reserve called Ku-
rin-gal chase, comprising $4,000
acres of land, chiefly of densely
wooded hills skirting for many miles
around numerous tidal arms of
Broken bay, is also held for the en-
joyment Of the public forever. Mel
bourne has no fewer than 5,4O0 acres
Of recreation grounds in or near the
city. Adelaide is surrounded by
belt of park lands, and has about
1890 acres set apart for the public
benefit; nor are Perth and Hobart
and Brisbane and some of the fine
inland towns less well provided for.

Oxford Asks for the Best.

The most promising young
man in the state of Kansas is the
one who is wanted for the Rhodes
scholarship at Oxford, England,
according to DR.. George r. Par
kin, representative of the Rhodes
Scholarship Trust, who visited
the University of Kansas last
week in the course of a tour of
the United States in the interests
of the great educational scheme
originated by the late Cecil
Rhodes. In his public address
DR.. Parkin gave an inspiring ac-
count of the great purposes of
Mr.. Rhodes. He said that when
the founder of the scholarships
specified that his scholars should
be athletes, he did not have in
mind "beef" and "vlctory,' but
the English ideal of athletics,
gentlemanly conduct and play
ing the game" Each of the
receives $500 a year
for expenses. The Kansas men
who have gone to Oxford have
made fine records. The present
scholar is George Putnam from
the University.-K. U. News

LOSS CAUSED BY POOR ROADS
unthrlft and Negligence Result In
Enormous Tax Levied on the
American Public.

On the average two days are said
to be required to do the Country

state, where one would be sufficient
If the roads were adequately i'm
proved and kept in proper repair.
II this economist be right, or half
right in his computation, here is an
enormous tax levied on the Ameri-
can public by unthrift and negli-
gence. There is another tax-the
abuse OF farm machinery. 1t will
never be known how many plows
were left in the furrow when the
tlllage was finished last summer, but
1t is safe to say that the number is
In the hundreds of thousands that
are now consumed by rust and rot,
and their places, as general propo-
sltlon, will be supplied by new plows
when another crop season comes. Of
other farm implements a like story
can be told. In the timber regions
numberless axes and iron wedges
are annually sacrificed to the mon
ster waste. Every year barnyard
manure to the value of millions goes
to waste, to the impoverishment of
the soil and the reduction of the
yield.
Waste costs the American people
more than one thousand million
dollars annually.

HOW TO SPEND A MILLION
Various Suggestions for Those Fond
OF Building Castles in
the Air.

The Philadelphia Evening Times
says: eff you had a million dollars,
how would you spend .it?" This
question is fired at the public gen.
orally and we have given it much
profound thought. Any answer to
it is surrounded by many conditions.
If we were worth million already,
we would probably invest it in gilt
edged securities that would bring us
in $4,000 or 100000 a year.
If we were a poor man, the first
thing we would do would be to buy
SIX pairs of shoes, 100 colored shirts,
two dozen pairs of highly inhamed
socks, seven incandescent cravats, a
new pair of pants, plug hat and a
diamond as big as a tomato.
A spinster with a million would
probably try to overtake some pre-
possessing young man on the road
and marry him. A bachelor would
probably devise ways and means to
escape being married. A pirate
would get converted and endow
church. A chorus lady would buy
365 pairs of silk stockings. A prize
fighter would try to break into the
Smart Set, while vaudeville artist
would undertake to play Hamlet.

A Moral.

A duck which stuck faithfully
to business during the summer
and laid several dozens of large,
fawn-colored eggs, complained
that she wasn't appreciated.
"See that hen over there" said
the duck; "she hasn't laid as
many eggs as have, nor as big,
but she has books written about
her and verses composed in her
honor, while nobody is saying a
word about me-"
"The trouble with you is"
said the wise old rooster that
was standing near, "that you
don't tell the public what you
have done. You lay an egg and
waddle off without saying word,
but that sister of mine never
lays one without letting everyone
in the neighborhood know about
it. If you want to cut any ice in
this community you must learn
to advertise. Exchange.
