| STATE UNIVERSITIES
: Their Origin I'D En-
dOwment.
Organization of the Ohio
State University.

The first law providing federal aid
to state institutions of learning was
passed by Congress and received
President Lincoln's approval in 1881.
1t is known as the Morrill, Act and
provided that there should be grant
ed to each state an amount OF public
land equal to 10000 acres for each
senator and representative in con-
gress to which the state was entitled
by the apportionment of the census
OF 1860. The proceeds arising from
the sales OF this land were to con-
stitute fund that should become a
part of the irreducible debt OF the
state and the income arising there
from should go to the maintenance OF
a college, providing the state, by act
of its Legislature. would accept the
grant and pledge faithful perform
ance Of its provisions.
The college thus founded should,
without excluding scientific and clas-
sical studies and including military
science. teach those branches OF
learning related to agriculture and
the mechanic arts, in such manner
as the state legislature should pre-
scribe, In order to promote liberal
and practical education of the inuus-
trial classes.

State Aid.

In 1891 the state legislature estab-
lished a permanent annual grant to
the university based on a certain
percentage OF the general tax dupli-
cate. This percentage has been in
creased from time to time until 1t
reached the present rate OF 10 cents
for each $1,000 on the general tax
duplicate of the state. In other
words, for every thousand dollars
worth OF property returned to the
assessor for taxation, the owner pays
1e cents tax to maintain the State
University.

Ohio Accepts.

In Ohio, Governor Tod brought the
matter to the attention OF the legis-
lature and in February. 1864, the
Delano bill was passed accepting the
grant. II was over six years later,
however, before the legislature pass
ed the laws necessary to carry into
effect the provisions OF the Morrill,
Act in order to establish the college.
In 1870 an act to establish and
maintain an Agricultural and Me-
chanical College was passed The
institution was located in Columbus
and vas opened for the reception OF
students in September, 1873.

The State University.

In 1873 an act reorganizing the
school was passed which, among
other things, provided that the name
thereafter should be The Ohio State
University" With the reorganization
came larger and broader view OF
the states relation to the university,
and financial aid began to be given
by direct appropriations. In 1890, by
act OF congress, permanent annual
grant Of $4,000 was made to all the
land-grant colleges. After 1912 this
amount will be $4,000 by act OF 1907.

Six Years-Many Towns Go

Des Moines, June 30.--Is Iowa
gradually turning back toward pro-
hibition? Statistics prepared by the
Iowa Anti-saloon league and taken
from the report of the secretary OF
state show decrease of $500 In the
number of saloons during the past
six years. Six years ago there were
in operation in Iowa over. 5000 sa-

be less than 700 saloons operating

state.
During the year 1905 saloons were
operated in 800 cities and 81 town.

but 1O5 cities will have saloons, while
there is at the present time not one
saloon operating In township. There
are at the present time. 203 cities
in the state where saloons are in
operation. Ten cities. in counties
which are otherwise dry. are now
in litigation. 1t is believed that
nearly 100 more saloons in this state
will be closed when these cases ara
settled If the Anti-saloon league wins
half OF the cases. This would leave
Iowa with less than 600 saloons OPP

A move by the Iowa Anti-saloon
league to attempt to secure the re-

soon. 1t is thought by many that at

an attempt will be made to restore

QUAIL SHOOTING
SOME OF THE DIFFICULTIES THAI
CONFRONT THE MAN WITH
THE GUN.

zone of the difficulties of quail
shooting lies in the very fact that
would apparently make his killing a
simple proposition. his rising near the
gun says Charles Askia in Outing.
Let me illustrate: If quail rose
within ten feet Of the gun and contin-
ued Sailing around the shooters head
at mile minute gait the chances
are that he couldn't be killed In ten
shots, both the bird and the gun
changing angle with a rapidly beyond
the ability of the mind to calculate.
In the same way close springlng
bird may change his angle with re-
gard to the gun so rapidly as to en-
trail a long and accurate swing be-
fore he can be covered.
The nature of the quail's flight fire.
uuently makes this long swing un-
avoidable. The bird may rise to the
north, pass to the west and be killed
to the south. Had it been possible to
foresee that the bird would swing
about to the south before being killed
the gun might have been pointed there.
rendering unnecessary a complex gun
movement, but meantime the quarry
would probably have gone In some
other direction. The quail work that
calls for care and skill is cover shoot
ing, and the only safe rule there is to
point your gun as near the bird as you
can when he breaks and shoot az
quickly as you can get on"
