rate tests Of the moisture contend In
the various farm products may be
made. This in the past has been
matter Of speculation, and without
the adequate facility that has been
provided the College has been unable
to determine the exact amount OF
moisture contained in the various
farm products. Now, however, all
that will be necessary is to place
the corn, sugar beets, or other plants
in the dryer, ignite the flame, turn
on the draft and by weighing the sub
ject matter before and after 1t Is re-
moved from the dryer computation
Of the exact amount of moisture can
be made.

MANY CHANGES
BEING MADE
Agronomy Department At V. A. c.
Being Greatly Enlarged For the
Coming School Year

Perhaps no other feature will appeal
with such interest to the students of |
agriculture as the course in Agron- |
omy at the Agricultural College this |
year. Extensive preparations for
the incoming company of students
have been going on all summer, and
the department has been so thor
oughly overhauled and reconstructed
as to present an aspect Of absolute
newness. Many new departments
have been added to this division OF
the school work until now the school
Of Agronomy occupies the entire wes-
tern portion of the basement in the
main building. The main room, which
was formerly used as the drill hall,
has been converted into an elaborate
agricultural museum, and samples OF
all kinds of grasses, tuber and fibre
crops have been neatly mounted, and
placed on exhibition here. A feature
of more than passing interest Is the
arrangement of sample trays OF di-
| htbb tupNo biophiNuhy atiuo
trating the ratio of precipitation in
various sections of the state. In ad-
dition to the museum a number OF
choice volumes bearing upon agricul-
. tural subjects and including the text
| books to be used In the various class.

r al library, now occupying separate
s room in the basement and this will

s needed for many years past has now

an experiment laboratory, where ad
yanced students may carry on theil

'e store room fully equipped with the
" various chemicals required will b,

the county from the fact that the
boys and girls could go home nights
and return in the morn ng. The road
betA cen Ogden and Br CHAM he sa. q
had sold over $4,000 worth Of tickets
to school children last year. Mr..
Eccles said he did not think the road
would be a big money maker but,
thought it would pay interest on the
investment, and that he would be dis.
Apo nted II the road is not built to
Wellsvlle and Preston. He was in
terested in Cache County nearly as
much as in any other county and
wanted to see 1t grow and prosper.
Congressman Joseph Howell was
then introduced and characterized
the road as the first span in the
steel chain that will Ink the settle
ments of Cache Valley together, bring
ing them into easy and close COM
munication." He spoke of the pros
perity of the community, and while
IL ought to be blessing it perhaps
had turned out otherwise from the
fact that through their prosperity the

Congressman then pad handsome
tribute to Hon. David Eccles, mot
the promoter, but the builder of the
road" He is not possessed with
the power of speech as is promoter"
said he "He does not even know
how to promise, which is the promot-
ers fort, but he is builder that has
been so emlnently successful that
many have attributed to him the
Midas touch-everything he touches
turns to gold" He then said during
all his associations W tn Mr.. Eccles
he has never known him &c accept
dollar from any person in any en-.
terpr Sc that did not go in on the
same basis with his own money, and
that whatever returns accrued from
the enterprise were distributed to

THE COMMANDS
OF BASEBALL

Blessed are they that swat out over

Honor thy mOgul and thy magnate,
that thy days may be long in the job
which the government giveth thee.
Beware the scribe. who urgeth 10
ginger up and play "scrappy" ball.
He will straightway call thee 'rowdy.'
Call not thy brother fool, lest some
day he be the manager and curb thee
with strong curb, and not to be
broken. Blessed are the peacemakers.
Their fines shall be light.
Thou shalt steal For he that
sneaketh not to second, the same
shall be condemned.
He that taketh chance and gain
eth base is greater than he that
taketh a city.
Whatsoever we do, do it to the
glory of your club and ye shall re
ceive your reward.
/ The fool saith in his heart, 81 will
sass the umpire, but the wise man
holdeth his peace.
Whether they be magnates, they
shall perish; whether they be star
players, they shall fall; whether there
be winter dope, it shall vanish away
for there is but one pennant Now
abideth these three: Faith, hope anG
victory; but the greatest of these is
victory.
He that hat heyes to see and hittetl
not, the same shall be cast out.
He that suweth curses before the
umpire shall reap fines. The presi
dent of the league hath said II.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, February Is.
Jim Jeffries is going to challenge
Jack Johnson again.
This is the positive statement made
this morning by a man close to the
former worlds champion.
1t appears that the big fellow has
been contemplating this action for
some time, having conceived the idea
soon after the Reno encounter that
had he trained differently he would
have been able to down the negro.
It is claimed for him that he has
led an abstemious and careful life for
some time now, and is said to be in
the finest of physical condition. In
deed, he is open in his statements that
he belives that at the present time
he is in better shape, all things con.
sidered, than is the present champion
There are hints that Jeffries has
consulted at least three of the leading

not expected to beat D. B. Young of
Amherst for first place, he can he re-
lied upon to satisfy the selection com
mittee that he ought to make the trip.
For the half, Mel Sheppard looms
up above all the others. He is the
only person who has ever come any
where near touching Emilio Lunghi' :
worlds record for the distance of
1:52 AS. His best time is 1888, made
in Syracuse.
Aside from Sheppard is Ira n. Day

for the half, as well as Putnam OF

change his mind and start in the
quarters, but the odds are that he
will stick to his favorite distance.
