Twelve-Year-Old Boy Enters Univer

(Chapel Hill Dispatch to News and
Observer
The youngest student to matricu-
late in the State University, perhaps
in the history of the institution, or
at least since the curriculum has been
so steep, is the twelve-year-old son
of Robert Welch, Sr., of Elizabeth
City, who was registered yesterday,
without conditions, as a full-fedged
freshman for an ALB. course.
Young Robert weighs only seventy
five pounds and is an unusually
bright lad for one of his age. It is
interesting to note that this young
college lad prepared to enter the Uni
versity last year, but owing to his
tender years President Venable ad-
vised his father to wait another year
at least before assuming the respon-
sibilities of a collegiate course.

County Sanatoria

All doubts of those who fear that
the several county sanatoria now
being erected in Wisconsin will not
be used have proven unfounded.
This is shown by an investigation
of the experience at Greenfield,
the Milwaukee County Sanatorium,
as we'll as the thirty county
sanatoria in Ohio and New York.
Also at the state Institution at
Wales which maintains constant
waiting list of about eighty
patients, there are many well to do
citizens OH the lists of applicants.
"Of the twenty-four patients at
Greenfield, said DR.. Thomas
Willett, superintendent of the
Milwaukee County institution,
there is only one person who
belongs to the pauper class.
Others are poor because they have
spent everything in fighting the
disease, but with the exception of
this one man who is typical
pauper. they all come from class
of good thrifty citizens.
The objections were presented to
DR.. H. E. Dearholt, Executive Sec
rotary of the Wisconsin Anti
tuberculosis Association. Where
the sanatorium is a separate insti-
tuition there is no objection" he
said, although many people would
not enter one if it were run in con-
nection with poor farm or county
asylum.
1T would be sorry commentary
on our present system" he added
IF we had to admit that the word
county" connected with an insti-
tuition Immediately suggested
pauperism and mismanagement.
The separate provision made for
patients paying their way in the
county tuberculosis sanatorium is
entirely satisfactory and there are
a very large number of ccnsunlp-
tives wanting place to go who will
welcome an opportunity to pay
their own way in the next one
completed.

Shop People Enjoy Day Here

The Omaha Ry. shop employees
from Hudson arrived here about
nine o'clock Saturday morning on
special train and spent most
pleasant day at Glen Park. There
were about two thousand at the
picnic, including the shop people,
their Hudson friends and those
from this city and vicinity who join
ed them. The Hudson band fur
nished excellent music all day, CIV
ing concerts in the morning and
playing for the dance in the pavilion
all afternoon. There were athletic
contests of all kinds, which, with the
dancing, gave popular entertainment
for everyone. The picnickers. for
the most part. brought their own
lunches, and enjoyed them under
the trees in the park, and they
found the new dining hall great
convenience also. The occasion
proved source of good revenue to
local autoists who had their
mac hines out for hire
The Hudson people were unani-
nous in their praise of Glen Park
as an ideal picnic ground; they are
glad they came and many expressed
the hope that their next annual pic.
mic could be held here.

Future Life on Wisconsin
Farms

In this article no reference will be
made to the automobile on the farm.
The auto has already become fix
ture to the Wisconsin farm life, and
it is time to discuss some of the
other things that will make life on
the Wisconsin farm possess advan-
tages not usually found.
In recent years the inventor hes
come to the rescue of the farmer, so
that now the Wisconsin farmer can
have:
i. The most approved heating
system, as good and cheaper than
is possessed by his city cousin.
Q. The Wisconsin farmer can
have complete electric lighting
system, with storage batteries that
can be charged in an hour or two
and supply electric lights for his
buildings for week or more per
charge.
8. The farmer can have CON-
Iplete water system under as perfect
control as is supplied by the city
water works.
f. The farmer can have sewage
system with modern toilet as a
part of the household fixtures
5. The Wisconsin farmer can
have concrete walks to all his build
.ings and from one to another at a
cost less than is paid by his friends
in the cities and can make it with
his own hands.
The same prosperity that has
enabled the farmer to possess him
self of the automobile will enable
him to have all of the above so-called
modern Improvements and he
can get them for less than is often
paid for the automobile.
There are concerns that are max
ing a specially of furnishing all
these modern improvements, and it
is agreeable information that they
have found the Wisconsin farmer
awake to the situation, and better
than that, able to buy them.
Prof. r. A. Moore, of the Wiscon-
SIN agricultural college has recently
been paying attention to this matter
of progress in Wisconsin farm con-
ditions and the changes that are
taking place, and expresses himself
as SURPRISED 9TH ~ number of
Wisconsin farmers that are putting
complete modern improvements
into their homes.

An average of O.9S per cent was
placed upon the exhibits of Amer
lean cheese judged at the College of
Agriculture of the University of
Wisconsin in the April scoring.
The cheese factories in the state
have been getting under way during
the past few weeks and the results
of the scoring show that, where
possible, factory operators should
have farmers deliver the milk daily
rather than every other day. When
the milk is not delivered every day
the cheese does not score so high.
About two-thirds of the cheese was
criticised for having stale, unclean,
old milk favors. This is because
the milk is not we'll cared for on the
farms and is not delivered often
enough.
