ALFALFA As HUMAN FOOD.

Representative Charles N. Pray OF

Alfalfa may be prepared for the

Question for Editors.

A question recently asked, why the
editorial page of newspaper Is al
ways "left-handed," does not appear
to have arisen before In the history Of
news. Probably no one In the con-
duct of even the least Of the newspa.
pers has ever thought of putting the
editorials on one Of the odd pages;
probably no one has ever stopped to
consider why the editorial page is
left handed. In the earliest newspa-
pers there were no editorials as
such; comment on the news was rare,
but when 1t was made 1t was attach
ed to the 1ews wherever placed. When
In the course Of time the expression
of the editors opinion advanced to a
distinct position, the very earliest
sheets, four pages, at the most, show
such opinions on page 2. The art
preservative Is the most conserva-
tive of arts; what has once been done
becomes a papers style, rigid incu-
bus, and thus 1t tends to perpetsate
itself The search Of scores of an
cient journals, gazettes and news let
ters shows this position Of the ed
itorial page; nothing shows any rea-
son therefor save the perpetuation of
a choice first made at random.

THE TECHNICAL SCHOOL.

Although the Act OF the Legisla-
ture providing for the creation of a
School of Advanced Technology in
connection with the Johns Hopkins
University did not contemplate the
opening of the School prior to Octo-
Der 1913, the University is anxious
to show its appreciation of the trust
committed to it by beginning the pre-
liminary work of technical education
at the earliest possible moment.
While it is clearly impossible to
organize and open the School of Tech
nology in October 1912, the Univers
ity authorities have decided to take
the first step at once. There are now
in the University courses OF instruc-
ton which are essential to technolo-
gy. Properly qualified students plan
ming to enter the School of Technolo-
gy, when it is organized. will be ad-
mitted in October 1912. They are
advised to take the regular entrance
examinations of the University.
Those unable to meet the entrance
requirements in full, but who pass
satisfactory examinations in English,
Mathematics or Latin, and in French
or German, will be admitted to such
courses as they are prepared to enter.
In order to enable worthy and de-
serving students to enter the courses
preliminary to technical education
this year, the University has also de-
termined to offer to a limited num-
Der of young men in Maryland tenn
porary or special scholarships provid-
ing free tuition. The temporary
scholarships will be purely voluntary
on the part of the University and
will not be the scholarships provided
by the law establishing the Technical
School. The holders of these special
scholarships, however, may be eligi-
BILE to compete later Oh for the regu-
lar scholarships as provided in the
law. The special scholarships will
be good for one year. 1t will be OBJ
viously difficult to apportion them on
any systematic basis. 1t is suggested,
therefore, that any young man in the
State whose preliminary education is
such as to qualify him to take the
special courses referred to, and who
desires to enter the University in
the fall of 1912, shall communicate
with the Registrar of the University
and receive from him the necessary
blank form of application. In case
the candidate wishes to apply for a
scholarship, he should give his rea-
sons and state all the facts bearing
upon the matter. In September the
application will be considered on its
! merits.

FIRST SPRING SUIT.

Fellow representatives Of Minority
Leader Mann have accused him OF
"beating the flag" in the annual change
of congressional fashion from winter
to spring clothes. Mann appeared on
the first warm day on the floor OF the
house with pin-stripe effects OF the
latest Partisan decree. He doffed the
familiar and somewhat overworked
brown togs. His was the first spring
suit to be shown at the capitol.
Even Congressman Nick Longworth.
the sartorial pride OF the house. was
nosed out by Mr.. Mann in espousing
new spring attire. Envious suggestion
was made from the Democratic side OF
the aisle to the Illinoisan that the blue
rig is an improved color scheme-in
better harmony with his iron gray
whiskers than the old, familiar brown.

tablished fact that our workmen pre-
Ter to take their chances of earn
Ing living In the overcrowded city
rather than labor with those old.fash-
loned implements of toil-the hoe. the
shovel. and the plow.
The sociologists have done much
lamsnting over the fact saying that
1t means dsoadence.
But here Is an encouraging fact Tor
the sociologist: The country is filled
with young men who are anxious to
labor with the hoe, the shovel, and the
plow, II that labor Is going to secure
for them the opportunity of receiving
a higher education.
It was only few weeks ago that
President John Grier Hibben Of Prince
ton university announced In a talk at
the Brooklyn University club that
farm was about to be opened at
Princeton which would provide any
student who Is not afraid Of toll with
the means of working his way through
college.
A brief four-paragraph item, giving
an outline of President Hibben's farm
scheme. appeared the next morning In
newspapers throughout the country
But already the university mail bag
has brought many letters from young
men who as one OF them aptly phrased
It. want chance to plow their way
through college"
Among the many letters received
was one from a woman In the west.

her son. 1t read;

It is time for him to have his college

and afford to let him have his time for
the four years course.
1T seems to me In so large a uni
yersity there ought to be something
for a student to work at to defray the
expenses OF his board and tuition.
While working at the bank my son
has taken an evening course at -
Business college, and would be able
to flll clerical position Or isn't
there a chance for him on the farm
that Is about to be opened up"
Another letter reads:

enteen, prepared for freshman class,
who can count on 500 year? He Is
bright, Industrious. and ambitious.

Information calculated to help me In
the preparation OF my son for useful
life"
President Hibben was looking over
some OF these letters that the last
mail had brought to his study table,
when reporter from the Times saw
him, says the New York Times.
Yes, Princeton Is to have farm"
said President Hibben in answer to
the reporters initial query. For the
first year 1t will be an experiment. II

become a permanent institution.

The regulations will be very similar
