How the University Helps Its Constituency
PAL
PART II.

Extension teaching affords the univer-
sity the greatest constructive oppor-
tunity IL has ever enjoyed. Daniel
Webster SAYS that "soul conservation
Is the greatest service which can be
rendered mankind" Soul conservation
may oftener come through the adjust
ment OF material conditions than we
sometimes think. websters advice, as
given below, is certainly worth cher
ishing in this connection:
IF we work upon marble. il will
perish: il we work upon brass, time
will efface IL; il We rear temples, they
will crumble into dust; but if we work
upon immortal souls, il we Undue them
with principles, with the just fear Of
God and love OF fellow-men. We engrave
on those tablets something which will
brighten all eternity"
An endeavor has been made to set
forth succinctly some phases Of the rise
and spread Of university ideals, and to
briefly portray the influence which they
have, exerted on civilization. In Amer
ics a peculiar type OF college has grown
up, which we now correctly term the
state university. IL is capable Of I'M
limited service to every state in which
it has been properly established and
wisely directed, protected from outside
interference and literally financed. The
university should stand in every we'll
ordered commonwealth as a beacon
light placed on a hilltop, where it can
not be hid, and casting its effulgent
rays over the entire state. 1t should
exert a wholesome influence at the ceIi-
ter OF luxury, in the counting house, in
the factory, on the farm, in the home
OF the grandee and the humblest citizen
alike. IL constitutes the melting pot in
which all the problems of the state are
TO be huxed and the dross separated
from the refined material which is to
give vitality to commerce, permanency
to industry and agriculture, and happi-
ness and contentment to all the people.
The university has been hkened by
some TO an engine. and in fancy let us
weave a comparison between the two.
The engine has a framework to give it
stability; the university has physical
equipment of grounds and buildings
The engine has a fire box, in which its
energy is generated; the university has
a laboratory. out of which comes the
refined truths that make for intellec-
tual development and mastery over ma
terial things. The engine has a steam
chest. where the pressure is exerted

Especial Dispatch to The JournaD

Especial Dispatch to The JournaL)
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Oct. Wood
row Wilson will receive 400 electoral
votes and will get a larger popular vote
than Taft and Roosevelt combined, ac-
cording TO John d. McNeel. who return
ed to Montgomery yesterday after
spending several weeks at Democratic
headquarters at New York and Chicago.
Mr.. RIcNeel believes that Wilson
would win If there were only one candi-
date against him. He thinks that If
Roosevelt were not in the race the DEM
ocratic nominee would receive go per
cent of the votes that the former presi-
dent will get and with Taft out of the
contest would get 75 per cent Of the
votes that will go to Taft.
Only eight or ten states are placed in
the doubtful column by Mr.. Mcneil,
among them being Illinois, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Vermont, New Hampshire.
Massachusetts,, Washington, oregon and
California, He believes some of the
New England states will go for Taft and
that Roosevelt will get Illinois and Wis
consin If these states do not vote for
the respective candidates he declares
that Wilson will get the electoral votes.
He thinks Taft is stronger than Roose-
Welt in Minnesota, but believes the
state will go for Wilson if not for Taft.
Three states, Washington, Oregon and
California, are regarded as being equally
divided between Taft and Roosevelt.
Most Of the people with whom l came
in contact, think Roosevelt will receive
a larger vote than Taft" stated Mr.. Nc
Neel, "and / rarely ever heard sug-
gestion Of Wilson's defeat. The people
in New York and Chicago are confident
that the Democrats will win in the No
vember election" He stated that the
vote between Roosevelt and Taft de-
Ponds largely upon the next five weeks
OF campaigning.
Mr.. McNeel will probably return to
Chicago the latter part of the week.
where he will remain until the early
part of November. He is organizing the
business men of Chicago for Wilson and
Marshall.
Gen. Bibb Graves, who has been sta
toned at New York headquarters, will
probably return to the north this week
to continue his work in the campaign.

STEAM CHEST EXPLODES
ON U. S. TORPEDO BOAT
Lieutenant Morrison Killed and
Eight Men on Destroyer
Wake Badly Injured
fBv Associated Press.)

NEWPORT, r. J., oct. Lieut..
Donald p. Morrison was killed and
eight men were injured today by the
explosion of the steam chest on the
torpedo boat destroyer Wake The &C
cident occurred off Brenton's reef light
ship while the Wake was preparing
for her second quarterly trial. Lieu
tenant Morrison entered the service
from Missouri in 1902
The seriously injured were:
Lieut.. Robert L. Montgomery, of the
destroyer Tanning; r. B. Crawford,
gunner's mate of the destroyer Patter-
son, the umpires named to watch the
tests, AMI the following members of
the Wakes crew:

first class; d. S. Kelly, chief machinist
mate; ]. Delaney, first class fireman;
W. +. Kraus, oiier, and F. b. Conway,
oiler.
The Wake was in company of other
destrOyers when the forward end of
the port turbine, together with the
steam chest, was blown off.
Lieutenant Morrison, chief engineer
officer on b GARD was instantly killed,
and the others were badly scalded.
Signals we're at once hoisted for as
sistance.

horns will not relieve sickness as some
have thought, and you have amply
demonstrated this to your own salts
faction. Boring the horns of a sick
COW and pouring in turpentine, as is
often practiced, is not only useless, but
cruel, and may sometimes set up acute
Inflammation. No doubt the discharge
from the horns is due to the fact that
they have become infected in some way.
1t will not be Objectionable to cut the
horns OF rather close TO the head with
good sharp saw. The animal should
be held firmly. We believe, after cut
ting off the horns, if you will give a
dose of one pound of glauber salts dis
solved in a quart of linseed tea and
one pint of molasses, you will find the
treatment helpful. You should give
a laxative, easily digested diet, and only
moderate amounts OF food should be
given for some little time. Do not
feed exclusively on meal and hulls,
as these are heavy concentrated foods.

the present development and success at

with the experience, knowledge and ma

Trouble Of this character mentioned.
in your letter is often observed in
heavy milking cows or those which are
fed largely on highly heterogeneous
foods, such as cotton seed meal and
corn meal. You are probably feed
ing an incorporation of grain to the
needs of the COW. We would suggest
that you cut the ration down material
Iy, probably eliminating the cotton seed
meal altogether for week or ten days
and substitute bran for the same. Use
equal proportions of bran and corn, or
brar oats and shorts. Then provide
some green feed in addition to the pas
ture if you can secure any. Freshly
cut sorghum or peas or velvet beans
will be found excellent for this pur-
pose. You should take great care TO
milk the udder out very thoroughly
several times a day, and disinfect all
utensils used in and about the stable
The hands of the mixer should also
be carefully cleansed, and the udder
washed off carefully before and after
milking. Antiseptic injections into the
udder through the teats after milking
will often be found very helpful. Iodo-
form in the water is especially recon-
mended, or you may use any Of the

The paralysis to which you refer
may be due to one of several causes,
and it is impossible to mention any one
specifically. Troubles of this charac-
ter are often due to improper feeding
and to the fact that the animals be-
come weak and unthrifty from one OF
various causes. Possibly you have
been feeding on corn alone. If so,
abandon its use and feed mixture OF
shorts and mill feed with ground corn
and digester tankage. Use mill feed
and corn in equal parts and for each

pounds of digester tankage. YopB may

done daily but care should be taken
not to blister the parts. If this treat
