to the dogs, his own antecedents
to kingdom come were proof
enough that he is mad; as mad
as Hamlet.
That a few self-seeking poll
ticians and traitorous newspaper
editors should follow him is
proof only that vanity and greed
are still factors to be reckoned
with in public life, That out
side of these he gets any votes
at all is proof of the adage that
a fool is born every minute and
that the poorest fake prophet can
get up a religion and any quack
doctor a richly profitable patent
medicine.
Let his family and friends take
him to an asylum before he
does something irreparable and
it is too observation-disclosures

Many Farmers in the University


The new catalogue just issued
by the University of Missouri
shows that the enrolment OF
students in the College Of Agri-
culture has increased from 211
four Years ago, to 794 during
the present session. This
Is an increase of 276 per cent.
Few colleges of Agriculture in
the United States have had such
a remarkable increase in their
enrolment during the same pc
riod of time.
The students are distributed
among the various divisions of
the college as follows.
There are 80 in the Graduate
Department, 457 in the -Four
Year College Course and 3O5 in
the Two Year Course.
The graduating class this year
numbers 81 students. In 1907
the graduating class numbered
seven students. This large in
crease has taxed Institutional
facilities of the College to the
utmost. Every class room
and laboratory is filled with
students. Because of the
crowded condition it has been
necessary to divide freshman stu,
dents in Dairy Husbandry, Farm
Crops and Live Stock Judging
into eight sections.
Among the students are repres-
entatiyes from Is states and
foreign countries.
