SECTION A NOTES

Cy Mcdonald put up neat game on
first, taking care of ten of his twelve
chances. Cy let an easy grounder go
through. No; Cy is not taking off any
weight
When it comes to playing second base,
you have to hand it TO Heinie Gasmeyer.
The Dutchman Is there forty ways from
the ace.
Billy Marceron bought two new bats
at Spaldings yesterday before the game.
Were they good ones? Look at Bills hit
column.
Shorty Hughes handled the game in
great shape, there being but few kicks
on his decisions. On one play Shorty
called Cy Mcdonald safe at third and
some little holler went up. But Mer-
rell Vaughn, one of the best sports, ad-
mitted that Cy had hit the bag before
being touched.
Babe Adams. the former Central High
School star, looked rather nifty on first
The kid handled himself like a veteran
and beat out a neat little infield tap
He is some speedy on his feet

Baseball is the worlds greatest CIV

We were always inclined to think that
way, especially after seeing a crowd Of

lot.
Charley Carr plans to open a baseball
school in the South this winter. 1t is
not likely that a gent known as Ty Cobb
will be among the pupils.

mas an unusually large crop this year
ano that it is in early, that the pros
pect was never better, and that in
that section there is not nearly SO
much danger of blight In spring
wheat, though there is very serious
danger of frost. Therefore, it would
be well for farmers not to form any
definite conclusions on the spring
wheat crop.
There is this in addition to be said
about the winter wheat crop: There
is likely to be an addition of from
five to ten million bushels in Mon
tana In fact, it would not be sur
.prising if Montana, within ten years,
should be the great winter wheat
state of the Union.
What is true of spring wheat is
also true of oats. In season of
growing weather like this, on rich
land there is great danger of oats
lodging. Exceedingly hot weather
may bring blight, and wet. muggy
weather may bring rust 1t is July
and August that make the spring
wheat and the oats crop.
We should expect a very large hay
crop this year, if we had the mead
ows. Unfortunately, over much Of
our territory, clover meadows are
very scarce, and the stand of tim
othy has been sadly reduced by the
last two drourhy years. The same is
true of blue grass. Blue grass is
about the only pasture which seems
drauth-proof but unfortunately our
blue grass pastures have been large
ly given up to the production of
grains.
As to corn, there is little to be
said as yet The strenuous corn
campaign that was conducted in the
prairie states last winter has so
aroused the farmers that they gave
special attention to their seed corn;
and while the stand so far as we
have reports is not full, it is better
than we had reason to fear. From
this time onward the corn crop is a
matter of weather. There will prob
ably be a greatly increased acreage
On this the government has fur
ished us no statistics.
Altogether, there is no reason for
great encouragement. There is no
such overplus in sight as will great
ly reduce prices, so far as they are
conditioned on the efforts of the
farmer,-Wallaces Farmer.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1912-07-05

The secretary of agriculture said
recently
THE department of agricul-
ture is organizing just now to take
farm demonstration work into the
northern states. Two classes of men
are required for this work: First,
in each county a first rate farmer
who has been a success on his farm
and who understands practically,
without much theory except what he
may have incidentally picked up,
how to handle the soil, the plant and
the animal; second, over large dis
tricts and states a different class of
men is wanted, who have an agri-
cultural college training com bined
with its application to practice in
the field. AS we read the daily pa
pers and see the reports of the thou
sands of young men who are gradu-
ated in law through the country, the
reflection naturally comes, what a
pity that the great demand of the
farm for intelligent men is not be-
ing more considered by our educa-
tional institutions. There is not law
work for more than small per cent
of these young men. No doubt the
education and mental training they
have had will make them brighter
men, but there are no jobs waiting
for them, that is for more than
very small percentage of them, while
the fields are crying aloud for
trained men. Housekeepers are com
planning of the cost of living. 1t
would seem to be wise for our edu-
Gators in their national meetings to
consider these problems 1t might
be wise to consider about how many
young lawyers will be needed in the
next year to take the place Of the
older men who are dropping out.
That could be very easily deter
mined. Then if the attention Of this
class of students were called to the
demand Of the industries for educat-
ed men, a different direction might
be given to many young men who
seem to be drawing their bows at
venture.
This applies to more than the
lawyer There are, no doubt far
more young physicians being turned
out from the educational institutions
of the country than there are patients
for. Wrong direction has been given
to the education of many young men
and yet there is nothing more diff
cult to change than the old systems
of education.
I'm his sixth annual report G91D
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1912-07-05

as president OF the Carnegie Founda-
tion for the Advancement of Teach
ing, Dr. Henry s. Pritchess says:
According to the census tables
there we're in the United States In
1900, $4,000 physicians and sur
geons. In the bulletin on medical
education issued by the Foundation
In 1910, 1t was calculated after care
full investigation that 1000 gradual
ed annually from the medical schools
would furnish an ample supply of
new physicians to take the places left
vacant by death and other causes
and to keep pace with the growth of
population. Assuming, and 1t is evil
IDENTIFY an eXtravagant ASSUMPTION
that the proportion of lawyers to the
population should be as large as the
proportion of physicians, 1900 gradu-
ates annually from the law schools
would be sufficient to maintain even
the present crowded stage of the To-
al profession. AS a matter of fact
in June. 1910, the number of stu
dents graduated by the law schools
numbered 41S3; and this takes no
account of the large percentage of
lawyers who are admitted to the bar
without having received law school
diploma. If we place the per capita
need of lawyer at the same figure
as the need of physician, and dis
regard all who enter the profession
without completing successfully
law school course, 1t is evident that
the output of the law schools of the
present day is far in excess of any
necessary demand
1T is certain that the demand for
lawyers md physicians is much more
than met by the professional schools
today. 1t is equally certain that the
demand for educated farmers is
strikingly neglected"
