No need of all this worry about what
to do with our Ex-Presidents There is
only one of them just at present and he
is capable of looking out for himself. Mr..
Roosevelt is already engaged to run for
President in 1916 and Mr.. Taft when he
becomes "Ex," will get a job in law
office. This Ex-President business is
hardly worth worrying about until we
accumulate a surplus.

The New York state agricultural adj
wisory board, created by the legislature
of 1911, has just made a report to Gov
ernor Dix in which it TecomIne1 lis some
general policies for the promotion of
agricultural education. 1t favors larg-
qr allotments for such education by
The state, with an appropriation for
the Use of "each union or high school
teaching a class Of not less than ten
in agriculture and for the common, dis
trict school giving an approved course
in nature study. The board is OPP
posed TO federal direction of agricul-
tural education and argues that s'the
autonomy Of the states should be pre-
served" in the development of fed
eral efforts to promote such education.
Inasmuch as bills pending in Congress
carry appropriations approximating
Sl2,000,000 a year for agricultural ed
ucation, the repcrt is certain to excite
interest. The board would not reject
national aid, but is opposed to thur
eaucratic regulations" and insists
that each state should handle its own
funds together with any money grant
cd by the nation for the purpose. For
the country the question is: How far
does the New York board represent
the feeling Of the farmers throughout
the country Record Herald.

Many of the farmers of the state
In the sugar beet districts have lest
stock as result of feeding them
frozen beets and it is stated that the
frozen beets must not be fed to stock
even after they have been mixed with
other feed and boiled. A chemical
change takes place in the beets when
they are frozen that produces a deadly
poison. Thousands Of tons Of the beets
were frozen in this county this fall
and as it is probable that there are
q few left over on most of he farms
where the beets were raised which the
farmers may attempt to utilize as feed
it is important that this information
reach the farmers of the county as
soon as possible. There have been no
losses reported from this county as yet
from this cause.

MANY OUT FOR orrISE.

Although the election of the state
superintendent of public instruction
does not occur until April, 1913, can
didates are being suggested now to
succeed G. P. Cary. This agitation is
probably precipitated by Superinten-
dent Carey's letters on the state uni
versity which have been widely pub
ished. The names of Superintendent
Carroll G. Pearse of the Milwaukee
public schools and President Charles.
McKenny of the Milwaukee Normal
school have been mentioned as prob
able candidates and M. A. Bussewit1
of the Milwaukee Normal, William
Kittle, secretary of the state board of
normal regents, Superintendent j. t.
Hooper of the state school for the blina
and others have been suggested.

p Because of a goodly sum for
travelling EXPENSES, say $4,000 year
Including extension.
Why is it not more eficienta
The faculty Of tie university is
large. The hours !. week devoted to
teaching on the part Of the faculty
members range from, say, to II.
The average number Of hours taught
per day is approximately 3, or 10 hours
q week. Those who teach the larger
number of hours per week, excluding
student teachers, are usually those re-
|ceiving the lower salaries. have
figured out as nearly as could from
the time table of the second semester
and the budget tie facts concerning
one department in which there are IL
teachers. The total number of recita-
tions per week is ia. OF these reci-
tations, 90 are conducted by the seven
men who receive over $500 a year !;
DO recltatlons are conducted by the
four men who receive salaries from
$llO0 up to s140O year, and So recis
tations are conducted by the six men
who receive 5000 year or less.
Those who receive 5000 year or less
are graduate students, that is, stu
dents who have credit for four years
of college work and are carrying on
advanced studies.
1t will be observed that between a
quarter and a third Of the teaching
in this department. is done by men
who are graduates of colleges and are
here in this university for the purpose
LOT carrying on advanced study, Incl
dentally teaching for the purpose of
earning money to pay their way. The
highest salary paid in this department
is $500, and the man who receives
it teaches nine hours a week. In an
other department there are two men
who receive $500 each. Last semes-
ter one of them had a total Of 20
pupils and the other 40, making a total
for the two of IS; thus these IS stu
dents were taught last semester at a
cost of $500, at the rate of about $45
apiece for the semester, or 800 year
each in this one subject. Two other
men who were students in the depart
ment, young and inexperienced, taught
some 81 pupils at cost of about 81
each. It, will thus be observed that the
cost per student, over which there was
a good deal Of controversy last year.
is an elusive sort Of thing, but it prob
ably increases rapidly in amount as
students go forward from freshmen to
graduate classes. 1t is generally con
ceded, however, that freshmen need
more care and attention than advance
ed students.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1912-02-15

a large share of the teaching IN the
univ ersity is done by men who get
scarcely living salary. Leaving out
the two lowest $500 each) and she
two highest (ss5oO each) in one de-
lpartment, I find that there remain
twelve men, and these men average
$145S. In another department out of
twenty-four teachers, four get over
$4,000, fourteen get $500 or less, while
six get salaries somewhere between
$500 and $4,000.
| There are some excellent teachers in
the university who receive low sal
aries, but as rule it is probably true
that the low priced men are not highly
satisfactory. The Students who are
teaching are not supposed to be devot-
lng full time to instruction; their stu
dies get half their time, and probably
fl most Of them, four-ifths Of their
interest and enthusiasm. Teaching is.
likely to. be merely an unpleasant in
terrupticn in the days work. The
men who are getting the larger sal
aries are supposed to be deeply inter-
asted IN research work, that is, a deli
gent and persistent effort to find out
something that nobody ever knew be-
fore. Their regulations among their
equals, their salaries and the standing
q the university with which They are
connected, unfortunately depend al
most. wholly upon their zeal and sue
cess in turning out learned articles
and monographs. In the midst Of all
this, the student gets on as best he
can, and there is little wonder that
students complain Of scant attention
and poor instruction, notwithstanding
! the large cost of the university. Some
times the students come in contact with
splendid, self-sacrifcing men who give
the best of themselves to their stu
dents and are Jealous first of ail for
their welfare. Not infrequently such
men lose caste with their fellow
workers, not to mention university of
fcials, and are looked upon as "mere-
~ teachers, /" unfit for promotion.
Another reason for the large amount
of poor teaching that is done in the
university, is that nobody in authority
has the temerityi to go into q class
taught even by student who is who'll
~ inexperienced and give any sugges-i
lions as to how the work should be
done. In other words, there is no per-
sonal supervision in the university,
with the exception Of a little here and
there within department. itself. Any
manufacturing plant run on SO crude
a plan would turn out very inferior
product. A capable man could easily
earn a large salary for the state by

ers and school officials of Kenosha re-
ceived an open letter from the state
official in which he hits especially at
the teaching force of the university.
The letter follows:
To Teachers and the General Public:
why does the university cost SO
much money!
!. Because it is a big Institution
and is doing work that requires large
equipment and the service Of many
teachers.
2. Because a large amount Of build
| ing is in progress-eight buildings in.
Guiding annexes are now under con-
struction.
3. Because of expensive purchases
of land. One of these purchases was
made by a special appropriation of the
last legislature and comprised some 156
acres of farm land on the ridge two
miles west of the university at some
thing over $500 an acre including in
terest, a total of 1926, 000- ST., 900 of
which is to be paid every year for
five years.

teachers salaries.
