The short course in general agricul-
ture and dairying, which opened Tues
day morning Jan. 2, at University of
Maine, with registration of 80, with
other students arriving later evil
dences a growing appreciation of the
value of agricultural education. Each
year has seen a slight gain; the pres
ent class presenting the largest per-
centage of gain of any class i'll the
history of the university, there being
exactly 100 per cent. increase. The
facilities of the dairy building for
conducting dairy laboratory work are
being taxed to the utmost. not only
for the short course students but for
the regular classes in dairying. In
fact the building is already outgrown
and some provision will need to be
made very soon for the accommoda-
ton of students. The forenoon of
each day is given to lecture work. be-
| ginning at s o'clock in the morning
and continuing throughout the entire
| forenoon. In the afternoon the stu
dents are divided into two main sec
| tons Section 1, taking laboratory
work in farm crops; Section .. in
dairying. The laboratory class in
dairying has been, on account of it's
| size, again subdivided into three sec
| tions-one section devoting its time
for the first part of the course to the
| test of milk, section to the separa-
| ton of milk and section 8 to the MAX
| ing of butter AT certain periods in
the course these sections will be ro-
| tated so that when the course has
been completed each student will have
had experience in all three of the
above named lines For the first time
in short course work the students are
being given laboratory experience in
dairy baeteriology.

An unique time piece is described
by the Bath Times. 1T was recently
sent to Mn Pinson by his broth
er who lives in Detroit. 1t is a
watch, chain, and two coins for
a charm. The entire collection
weighs two and three quarters
pounds. while the watch alone weighs
over one and a half pounds. The
watch is an eight day affair and keeps
very accurate time and jewelers. who
have seen it declare that they can
only guess at its age. The coins on
the chain are dated Ill and 1880 and
are Hungarian pieces. Mr.. Prisons
brother went bail for Hungarian
who got into some difficulty in Detroit
taking the watch for security. but the
man jumped his bail and consequently
lost his watch. The time piece is con-
sidered not only curio but quite val
liable as an offer of $3.50 for it has
been declined

FAST BOAT
ON THE RIVER

c. X. Dennison, OF the Salem boat
works, has just completed for c. and
]. Krebs, one of the finest launches
in this part of the country. It was
designed and made entirely in Salem
at the plant of that company at the
foot of State street, and certainly is
credit to its builder 1t is 80 feet
long, has five foot beam and draws
II inches. 1t is a type known as
tunnel stern and for that type of
boat, draws very small amount Of
water Mr.. Dennison claims for his
boat that it is the fastest of the kind
on the river, and also claims that 1t
will navigate In less water than any
other boat Of its capacity, drawing
about 10 inches less water than any
other of the same type. 1t has a 45-
horse power engine, and is capable
of going 20 to rs miles an hour. 1t
Is made of material, all Of which
was produced in Oregon. The hull
is made of fir and the frame work
is oak. Spruce and redwood enter
into the finish of the boat, which is
very neat in appearance It will be
used by Krebs brothers for business
and pleasure along the Willamette
river in connection with their large
farm interests 1t cost $25OO.
Mr.. Dennison will make other boats
Of the same type this summer; his
intention being to use lighter mater
ial for them and to make boat that
will attain still higher speed than
the one Just completed.

new TURN IS GIVEN
TO The BRANDT CASE

Albany, N. Y, Feb. 25.-Governor
Dix late today gave new and unex-
pected turn to the case of Folke Il.
Brandt, the former valet of Mortimer
L. Schiff, by suspending the investi-
cation began last week by Judge
Hand, whom the governor appointed
commissioner for that purpose.
This action by the governor is re-
garded as another victory for Brandt.
Delaney Nicoll and Alton b. Parker
attorneys for Schiff, had insisted that
Schiff and his former counsel, Ho-
ward s. Cans, appear as witnesses
before Commissioner Hand, but this
move was vigorously fought by Dist
riot Attorney Whitman, who declar-
ed that both Schiff and his attorney
were liable to indictment by the
grand jury for conspiring to send
Brandt to prison and therefore should
not have the advantage of possible
immunity at the hands of the com.
