To Limit Girls Activities at State
University

Because many Of the women stu
dents at the University of Wiscon-
sin are not now taking active part
in the work of the debating and lit
erary societies, musical clubs, jour
nalism and home economics clubs,
athletic associations, and because
these clubs are being managed by a
few women students who interest
themselves in great number Of
outside activities, the Girls Self
Government Board of the university
is planning to restrict the number
of activities, societies, and offices, in
which a girl may be interested BY
thus cutting down the number of
organizations in which any one girl
may be interested, it is hoped to
bring out more girls for womens or
ganiZatiOnS. The board is prOpos-
ing the change because it believes
that every young woman at the uni
yersity should have at least one in
terest outside of her duties. in order
to make the most of her college
course.

PROTECTING CATTLE FROM THE
FLIES
Prof. G. c. Humphrey, Wisconsin
College of Agriculture.

The annoyance of animals by files
is one of the unpleasant features of
the summer time for cattlemen, es-
pecially dairymen. Men are contin-
ually seeking information and a
means for overcoming this annoyance
To accomplish this, however, is one
of the perplexing problems for which
no entirely satisfactory solution has
been found. Darkening the stables
by covering the windows with gunny
sacks or dark colored P and B. pa
per, and at the same time providing
for the circulation of plenty of fresh
air, affords relief to cattle from flies
while in the barn at milking time.
On extremely hot days where pas
lures are not provided with good
shade, it undoubtedly would be best
to put the cows into the barn sew
eral hours prior to milking time,
which not only protects them from
flies, but also from the hot sun.
Temporary relief from flies is to
be found in applying fly repellants
which are offered on the market, and
which cost in the neighborhood of 81
per gallon. The following list of fly
repellants, together with the compan-
les manufacturing them, has been

PEDloREED SEED is GONE.
World Demand Has Practically Ex-
hausted Supply in Wisconsin

Madison, Wis. .,-Growers of pure
bred Wisconsin seed are unable to
supply the demand coming from all
over the world The failure OF the
seed corn in other states and the
fame of the Wisconsin types have
combined to bring orders that have
literally swamped the growers. At
the agricultural experimental station
here orders are being turned down
daily. Growers secured such good
prices that they were tempted to
sell too much of their stock. Now
there is not enough left for sale to
home farmers. One Wisconsin seed
grower, H. E. Krueger of Beaver
Dam, has sold over $4,000 worth
this year, and others are said to
have done better Enough pedigreed
barley will be grown in Wisconsin
this year, said Prof R. A. Moore, to
cover the entire barley acreage of
the United States, and next year
there will be enough to cover the
pedigreed barley acreage of the

A GREAT SUCCESS
HOME TALENT MUSICAL COMEDY
VERY CREDITABLE
TWO LARGE AUDIENCES PLEASED
Rare Talent Displayed in Presenta-
ton of Captain of Plymouth

The presentation of THE Captain
of Plymouth by local talent for the
benefit of the Highschool Athletic
Association, at the opera house last
Thursday and Friday evenings, was
on both evenings greeted by large
audiences. The participants are de-
serving of unstinted praise, for, ta-
ken altogether it was the best anna
teur production seen here for some
time.
Particular mention should be made
of the c..editable Interpretation Of the
title role by Arthur Alpin, although
possibly greater praise is due Chas.
Guilford for the ability he displayed
in acting the part of John Alden
Each Of these young men had an ex-
cellent voice for his role and both
demonstrated that they possessed
considerable ability in dramatic work.
Cloyd III. Karns was a good
comedian, in the part Of Erasmus.
Special mention should ais be made
of Miss Adeline Whiting, as Pris-
ella. Tn other parts were all we'll
handled, though they did not give
as much opportunity for the display
of ability as the leading roles.
The numerous excellent musical
numbers contributed much to make
the event one that will long be re-
membered with pleasure. Nor should
the orchestra be forgotten for with
out their good work the production
could not have been a success

Spraying the cows with a spray
pump Immediately after they have
come to the stable may be prac-
the odor of the spray; and if the sta
Bile is darkened it is perhaps a bet
ter plan to spray only when the cows
leave the barn for the pasture. The
relief which any one of these sprays
renders COWS undoubtedly makes an
Investment in these fly repellants
worth while and to be recommended.

CRITICISM UNSUPPORTED VAN
HiSE TELLS ALUMNI

That the teaching staff of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin Is organized pre-
cisely like all the other universities
of the country, that graduate school
is regarded by the Association OF
American Universities and by the AS
sociation of State Universities as all
essential part of a university; and
that the university will never waver
in it's purpose to lend hand to the
state government in any way the
proper authorities request, were the
important points made by President
Charles R. Van Hise of the University
of Wisconsin in an address before the
Racine alumni of the university last
week.
IF it is said that the university is
attempting to dominate the state and
no facts are given upon which this
statement is based" said President
Van Hise, "the presumption Is that 1t
was the intention of the author of
the CTlJlClSLu 10 create pTGJuuiCC
against the institution by denuncia-
ton, rather than to make helpful
criticism.
'Is it not strange spectacle that
the superintendent at the head Of the
public schools of the state who should
be not only the chief expert in educa-
ton in the state, but a profound be-
lever in science as applied to life,
should take a stand against the use Of
experts in advancing humanity?
II shall not make any suggestions
as to the motives, but | ask the peo-
pie of the state to consider for them
selves this aspect of the matter.
Notwithstanding thes unjustifi-
able attacks, it will be the aim of
the University of Wisconsin in the
future, as it has been in the past,
since the days of John Bascom, not
only to be an intellectual and spirit
ual leader in Wisconsin, but SO far
as lies within it's resources and cap
acities a leader in the nation and in
the world"

In case Of two other potato dis
eases, the germs are entirely on the
surface These are the common scab
and the black leg diseases. The for
mer is too familiar to need dscerip-
stem below ground. 1t may cause the
tops to die, and in some cases leads
to soft rot Cf the tubers.
In both scab and blackleg the
germs can be destroyed on the seed
potatoes by selecting smooth tubers
and treating them with formalin The
simplest method is to soak the tu-
bers for two hours in a solution of
pint of formalin in 80 gallons of
water This can be used several
times without losing it's strength. In
this way, one pint of formalin Will
disinfect about 20 bushels Of pota-
toes, making the actual outlay only
about one cent per bushel. Large

from fOrma alin.
Potato scab germs may persist in
the soil of old potato fields and may
also be carried in the manure, when
scabby potatoes are fed to stock. The
use of ashes or lime also stimulates
this disease
To keep the poato crop free from
these diseases, therefore, select
smooth seed, disinfect with formalin,
and plant on clean soil, best q clo-
yer or grass sod.
