Washington, Nov. 9.-With a
total of 1869, ,172 bales of cotton
of the growth Of l91lginned prior
to November l, as announced
today by the census bureau, the
promised record breaking cotton
crop Of this season is fast being
made ready for the manufacture
er. At no time in the history
of the American cotton indus
try has so great a crop been
ginned to this time of the year.
The amount ginned to No
vember 1 exceeds by l,777, 900
bales the amount ginned to this
date in 1908, the previous record.
It also is greater than the ginn-
ing to November a of any other
year, being about 2O0.0 bales
more than was ginned to that
date in 1904, the record. This
would indicate that the crop
was at least two weeks earlier
in maturing and reaching the
gins than in previous years.
Calculations Of the years
total crop, based on the ginning
reports, would, therefore. prob
ably be more accurate If figured
on the November IA reports of
other years. In previogs record
Yeas. about 70 per cent has
been ginned to that date and a
rough estimate of this years
crop might be placed at mini
mum of IA, 600, 600 bales. Com
mercial experts estimates. how
ever, range up to more thar l5,-
$50, 600.

Special Correspondence OF The Star and the

ITHACA, n. Y, July 3, 1911.
Every educational institution has its in
divfduality. and one or more features
which give it character as well as repu-
tation, and when I asked President
Schurman concerning the individuality
OF Cornell he spoke of three things-en-
cheering, agriculture and research.
The diplomas Of our school OF engi-
neering," he said. ARE recognized as
certificates of competency and proficien-
cy throughout the world. An engi-
neer who has diploma from Cor
neil needs no other recommendation
The corporations and firms that employ
engineers come to Ithaca regularly dur
ing the spring semester to offer employ
ment to the members of the graduating
| class in the college of engineering, and
the demand for competent engineers is
SO great that every one is assured of
employment and promotion. After that
his success in life depends upon his own
efforts and the fulfillment of the prom
Uses he has made here. Our engineering
school is so crowded that we have been
compelled to raise the requirements for
ADMISSION and have turned away hun
dreds of ambitious young men whom we
could not accommodate. We hope soon
to enlarge the facilities of the school,
although the standard will be maintained
| as the highest in the country.
The work of our school of agri-
culture Is on the same plane, and
thanks to the legislature Of New York
| which gives us $245,000 a year for
maintenance. and half a million dol
| lars for buildings during the last two
years. we have been able to not only
furnish instruction of the highest
scientific standard to nearly a thousand
| students but have been able to carry
on original research of the greatest i'm
portance.

MANY Foreign Students.

Large numbers of the foreigners are
attracted here by our courses in agricui-
ture and engineering. and many OF them
are sent by their governments. The Cos
mopolitan Club. which takes the place of
a fraternity for the foreigners. is one OF
the most interesting places on the cam
pus The South Americans are a doml-
mating influence there Most of them are
young men of high connections, whose
abilities have caused their governments
TO send them here to be trained for lead
ership in the material development OF
their countries.
..The discipline Of the students at Cor
NELL" continued President Schurman. lis
I'm the hands of a committee on student
affairs consisting OF nine members of the
faculty Associated with them is a COM
mttee of students selected by the faculty
from among the members OF the senior
class, who are recognized for their ability,
good Judgment and influence among the
undergraduate body. The heroes of ath-
letics, the captains OF the crew, the base
ball and foot ball teams, are pretty GER
tain to be members Of the discipline COM
mittee because Of their prominence and
experience in handling men. This
cooperation between the students and the
faculty has been working successfully
for several years. and we consider II
quite as effective as any other form that
has been attempted. The members OF the
student committee exercise great personal
more reckless element among the ire
sponsibe undergraduates. and come more
closely into contact with them than the
members of the faculty could possibly do.
when offenses against the rules of the
university or against good order occur
the chairman of the faculty committee
notifies the chairman Of the student COM
mittee which makes an investigation and
a report which is considered at q joint
meeting
1.-The student committee acts as a grand
jury and finds out the facts. They al
ways give the culprit full opportunity
the case. and they have an opportunity to
study his disposition and tendencies. If
the student committee thinks he can be
reformed and ought to have another
chance they put him on probation. and
meanwhile exercise friendly supervision
over his conduct. If they think his case
| is hopeless or IL the moral effect OF an
example upon the students is necessary.
| or if he has shown a vicious disposition
they report accordingly and advise him
| to withdraw voluntarily. If he declines
to accept their advice the faculty COM
| mittee takes the matter up and acts
promptly and finally upon the case.
Thinks System Effective.
I'm my judgment" said President
Schurman, this combination Of faculty
and student discipline Is the most eff
fective first. because the students can
get the facts more fully and accurately.
4 and the support OF the faculty committee
gives them q bulwark to sustain their
responsibility.

nrst time In the history of the univer-
sity. He is Lieut.. Tweston formerly Of
the Philadelphia city police force The
expectancy OF having a proctor has been
under discussion for several years, and
mas been advocated by our discipline COM
mlttee. which has been on the lookout
for the right kind of man. Last fall
three OF the members attended the foot
Dali game with the University of Penn
syivania. and when they came home from
Phladelphia each came to me, without
consultation or without the knowledge Of
tne others, and said that he had found
the right man for proctor in lieutenant
or police, who had charge Of the foot
pail grounds during the game. 1t was
singular coincidence that every men,
Der OF the committee should have been
impressed by the tact and influence dis
played on that occasion. 1t was SO re-
markable that we sent for Lieut. Twes-
ton and put him on trial. He is not a
policeman: he has no authority; he is
not spy; he never makes any arrests
or reports, but he mingles with the STU
dents. has gained their confidence to
an extraordinary extent and is the friend
and adviser of those who are inclined to
be dissipated and disorderly
ON occasions of great rejoicing and
demonstration he is always with the bows
to restrain them when they become too
impetuous and demonstratfve, to observe
with disinterested mind what happens in
case of disorder, and to act as a concilia-
tor between the students and the local
police with whom there is always a feud,
as in every college town. Tweston has
sbeen great success, and on two occa-
sions during the past winter has dis
tinguished himself in controlling large
bodies of students who, but for his re-
straining influence, in their impetuosity
might have been guilty of disorder, which
we would have regretted.

Prize Corn Contest

The success Of the boys and
girls corn contests last year and
the interest in corn growing mani
tested by the young folks since that
time has led the Montana Farmers
Institute Office to promote the for
nation this spring Of boys and
girls corn clubs in the rural school
districts Of the state. It is planned
that the champion corn grower Of
each district will compete with
those from other districts for the
county championship and the win
ners in this class will compete at
the state fair in Helena for state
honors. Already quite a number
of the clubs have been started in
different parts Of the state. The
Farmers Institute office will fur
nish to each club seed corn and i'll
structions for the care of the crop.
In this connection we may note
that the Dakota Farmer has in
augurated a boys corn contest for
Montana and North and South Da-
kota, with premiums aggregating
over $4,000.

the corn clubs, write 20 the Office

it was decided to call another meet
ing Of the farmers Of Dennis and
vicinity on Saturday, April 22nd,
to consider the organization of a

The gentlemen from Dennis
stated that a large number Of the
farmers in that vicinity had signi-
fed their willingness to subscribe
stock, while others had already
signed up, and with the object in
view to perfect an organization as
quickly as possible, with as many
farmers interested as possible, those
residing in the vicinity of Carlyle,
Preston and Dennis are earnestly
requested to turn out on the above
date and boost for the new elevator
at Dennis.
The regular appointed elevator
committee of the Chamber will
drive out to Dennis on that date to
assist in perfecting the organiza-
tiop, and it is hoped that splen-
