REPLY EXPECTED
. FROM BARR|NGER
President of Polytechnic Insti-
tute Served With Set of
Charges.

Members of the board of visitors of
the Virginia Polytechnic Institute are
awaiting a reply from DR.. Paul B. Bar
ringer. president of the institution, to
certain charges made against him
few weeks ago, and to which he prom
ised to reply within a week or two
after the opening of the school for
the term. The matter has not ap-
preached the period of a promised in
vestigation. and nothing official what
ever has been done in reference to 1t.
No meeting of the board has been held
regarding the matter. the charges be-
ing handed DR.. Barringer at the Rich
mond Hotel by the party preferring
them, in the presence only of l. e.
Johnson. rector of the visitors and
president of the Norfolk and Western
Railway.
These charges are to the effect that
immoral conditions prevailed at the
Virginia Polytechnic Institute at the
last session. and that when the situa-
ton was presented to President Bar
ringer. he did not take what We're re-
garded as active steps looking to It's
suppression. 1t is further charged that
Il tremendously large number OF fur
1oughs Have been granted to cadets to
go to Roanoke and attend plays, with
results that were largely demorailzing
to school life.
Perhaps the most serious accusation
brought is that under DR.. Barringer's
regime the standard OF truth Is not
high at the institute and that the
honor system is to a great extent a
failure.
~ At the time the charges were handed
Or. Barringer, he indicated to re-
porter for The Times Dispatch that
some statement would be Forthcoming
later.
snys Charges Are False.
DIR. Barringer was called over tho
long distance telephone last night at
Blacksburg. and asked regarding the
! charges made against him. He de-
clined TO make any statement at this
time further than to say that at the
proper time the charges and reflections
on the cadet corps and on him would
be proved false and malicious.
| When l. Z. Johnson, rector OF the
visitors. was asked about tho matter
in Roanoke last night, he made this
| written statement:
| Mr.. Johnson declines to affirm or
deny that charges have or will be made
against DR.. Barringer, president OF the
Virginia Polytechnic Institnte."

Dehorning Dangerous.

THERE'S considerable amount ot
danger in dehorning both old anc
young stock. The dangers to the
young are found in the careless OF
undue use of caustic or other burn.
ing material used to prevent the
growth of the bony substances in
the yonng animal. In many cases
the burning caustic has penetrated
the skull and caused death after
convulsions and great pain. This
is, in case of valuble stock, a SER
ious thing. 1t would be better to
let the horns grow than to loose a
valuable animal by careless hand
ling.
The hair should, in all cases, be
entirely removed from around the
horn nub on the calf's head, then
there can be no doubt as to wheth-
er the caustic is being put on the
hair or on the bone, and an accurate
estimate can be made of the guam
tity used. There need be but little
applied to do the work, just enough
to make a light coloring on the SUR
face. This may be repeated in a
few days or weeks if the horns con-
tinue to grow, but always remove
the hair first. Never put the caus-
tic on.anything but clean surface.
Older animals that have the horns
removed by an instrument made
for the purpose, should always be
we'll protected both at the time of
cutting and afterward. 1t is nee
essary in order to make clean job
and not hurt or MAIN the beast un-
necessarily, so have the animal
firmly sanctioned, otonly as to
the head and neck, but as to the
balance of the body alse. A place
should be built to hold every part
of the animal in perfect quiet, or
the operation may result in serious
damage and suffering.
After the work if done, there
should be as much care of the wound
as if it were on any other parts OF
of the body. Animals often bleed
| to death. Most of them suffer from
inflammation, and all 81 O I'D be pro,
tected from flies and infection
Washing with peroxide of corbollc
water, and greasing are always nee
essary in such cases for best results
