Applied History.

A unique series of publications
bearing the title applied History"
has been inaugurated by the State
Historical Society of Iowa. The idea
is new, but the society believes that
knowledge of history may be applied
! in the affairs of present-day govern
ment much in the same way as
knowledge of science is applied in
agriculture or engineering. In other
words, through study of the past
Experiences of the people of Iowa and
other states in their attempts to
solve various political, social and eco
nomic problems, there may be discov-
cred certain fixed laws of human pro-
gress which should form the basis
for present and future activities along
the line of political, social and eco
nomic reform in Iowa.
With this idea in mind, the State
Historical Society of Iowa under the
direction Of the superintendent, DR..
DcHJ. l.. ohoAAUeauSA, mas III oSNCAo
years been formulating plans for the
publication of series of volumes de-
voted to Applied History" The first
volume in this series, which will be
issued during the coming winter, will
contain scholarly historical and COM
parative studies of such subjects as
the regulation of municipal public
utilities, indemnity for work acct
dents, primary elections, road legisla-
ton, taxation and corrupt practices
legislation. For more than a year a
number of expert investigators have
been engaged in making exhaustive
researches along these various lines,
Istudying not only the history of the
methods of dealing with these sub
jects adopted in Iowa in the past, but
also the experiences of other states.
All of these problems are now de-
manding solution in accordance with
the principles of equity and good gov
eminent, and it is with the hope of
contributing accurate, scientific and
impartial information along these lines
that the State Historical Society of
Iowa plans to publish the first volume
of applied History"

THIS YEAR AND HE HAS NOT
FIGURED OUT THE CAUSE
KNOWS HIS BUSINESS.

One Of the most interesting visitors
to the departf ent of agriculture and
the state Library yesterday was III. n.
Bailey, Of Warwick county, large
fruit grower and trucker of tidewater.
Mr.. Bailey is an expert ornithologist.
having made lifelong study of birds.
and is now engaged in the preparation
of book on the subject of Virginia's
feathered creation. He Will embei-
fish the work with photographs taken
by himself on hts own estate. and the
work will embrace Interesting studies
of birds from personal observation
combined with the authors scientifice
knowledge OF the creatures.
Wild Turkeys Plentiful.
Asked yesterday something about
the reported scarcity of game in Vir-
ginia this season, Mr.. Bailey stated
that wild turkeys are more plentiful
this year than he had known them
since he came to Virginia. In spite u
the hard winter last year and the
fact that so many were killed, the
supply does not seem in the least
diminished. Quail. however. are not
plentiful, and Mr.. Bailey is frank
to admit that he cannot account Tor
the fact unless the hard winter last
year had something to do with 1t. Mr..
Bailey regards the feathered tribe as
the best friends the farmers have. and
with his knowledge of birds. he has
maintained a plentiful supply of game
on his place with little effort on his
part. He maintains "A watchfuiness
over the wild inhabitants on his place

keeping his dogs in an enclosure; per-
hitting his friends who hunt there to
