SUMMER ENcAMpMENr SCHOOLS
A. a NJ. College VIII Hold at Least
Five During Summer

Saltwater, Okla.-The A. & M.
College will hold five or more sum-
mer encampment schools during the
coming summer season in those coun-
ties of the state in which the Farm
ers' Institutes and the Womans' Aux
iliaries of the institutes are most ac-
tive and vigorous. This provides one
or more encampment schools for each
Supreme Court Judicial District. The
contest will close May 10Th and all
reports from counties must reach the
A. & M. College before May 20.
The reports of this contest must
be made on blanks furnished by the
A. & M. College and sworn to in each
case by the president and secretary
of both the County Farmers lnsti-
tute and the Womans Auxiliary, re-
spectively Since the annual dues for
membership in the woman's auxIl-
liary is only one-half that charged for
membership in the Farmers Institute
the active membership and attend
ance of the woman's auxiliary will be
counted as one-half the full strength
of the names enrolled and attending.
1t is planned to open these schools
on Tuesday and hold three sessions
daily through Saturday-remaining
five days in each community. The col
lege will send out to these encamp-
ment schools at least two car loads
of live stock, poultry, and scientific
equipment and the necessary profes-
sors for the lecture work. For each
evening, music and special moving
picture programs will be arranged in
connection with the technical lee
rtures. The college will supply two
tents in which many of the meetings
will be held.
The basis of this years contest is
active membership one-half and at
tendance one-half. Officers of county
farmers Institutes and Of the wo-
mans auxiliaries entering this con.
test should apply to the A. & M. Col.
lege for necessary blanks on which to
report before May 10. Farmers Insti
tute officials we're notified of these
contests by letter of December 9, 1911
Further information concerning these
encampment schools will be sent on
request.
The attendance and the interest
last year were such as to satisfy the
college authorities and arouse much
interest for agricultural progress.-J

STATE TAKES HAND IN FIGHT
New Jersey Leads in Advanced Leeis'
Iatlon Designed to Check Spread
of Tuberculosis.

What is designated by the National
Association for the Study and Preven-
ton of tuberculosis as the most ad-
vanced legislation in the campaign
against tuberculosis that has been
enacted by any state in the United
States, If not by any country in the
world, is found in a bill recently
passed by the New Jersey legislature
and signed by Governor Wilson. The
new law provides that tuberculosis
patients who refuse to obey the regu-
iations laid down by the state board
of health concerning the prevention of
their disease, and thus become a men,
ace to the health of those with whom
they associate shall be compulsorily
segregated by order Of the courts, in
institutions provided for this purpose.
If such a patient refuses to obey the
rules and regulations of the institu-
ton in which he is placed, he may ''be
isolated or separated from other per-
sons and restrained from leaving the
institution" The law further pro-
vides that all counties in the state
of New Jersey shall within six months
from April 1st make provision in spe-
cial institutions for the care of all
persons having tuberculosis in these
counties. The state treasurer will sub
sidize each county to the extent Of
$500 a week for each person main
tanned in these institutions, except
those who are able to pay for the cost
of maintenance.

YELLOW JACKET SQUAD IS
 READY TO MEET CITADEL

Atlanta, October -tSpecial1- : ents of Georgia Tech are very meeh pleased over the showing of the varsity In the game with the Eleventh cavalry last Saturday, the initial game of tHe season.
 Although three of their regular players were unable to get into the game. tue team played with clock-lilSe precision and barring many fumbes which were ocoa- stoned by the rainy day. they outplayod their heavier cavalry opponents, both on the ofrense and the defense.
 The Tech team this year is not golng to weigh very much as whole, thousa with the return of the three absent reg ulars the team average will be brought up considerably.
 It is doubtful if the line from end 10 end will average even with the heavic # men in school that can be mustered To- gether more than 165. pounds, and the baekfleld but 155 giving team ave-. age of 160, which is not as heavy as mans of the teams that the Jackets will play
 But despite this weight handicap, one thing is noticeable. Even in the first game the drive to the attack was more concerted and had more power to it than, the experienced heavier team that repre- sented the Jackets in 1911.
