LEGUMES BUGS GROWING
archaeological Department Testing
Cultures of Bacteria on Various
Legumes.

Some interesting cultures of nitrify-
ing bacteria are being grown in the
experiment station laboratory The
cultures are being tried on alfalfa,
field peas, garden peas, vetches, cloyers
and several other leguminous plants.
The experiment seems to confirm the
idea that each plant has it's special
strain of bacteria. But since one
strain from one plant has been made
to pass over to another plant as from
alfalfa to clover seems to show that
though of different strains the common
nitrifying bacteria belong to one
species.

COMMON SENSE DIET
Cleveland High School Girls Eating
Wholesome Food.

CLEVELAND, O., Dec. 10.-A pickle,
pretzel and dish of ice cream;
that's what used to constitute the lunch
of a Cleveland high school girl. A
pint of pure, tuberculin tested milk,
bowl of hot soup and sandwich;
that's the new menu of the majority of
Cleveland high school girls for lunch
con today.
Strict supervision of high school
lunch rooms has worked the change
from an unwholesome, digestion de
stroying diet to a wholesome, health
producing luncheon, without any APP
preciable increase in cost.
I'VE don't eat things because we
ought to but because we like to-. said
DR.. E. A. Peterson, lunch room SUI
pervisor who brought about the
change. That's the theory we have
been working on. It's the best psy-
chology to get people to do thing
because it is a pleasure, not because
they ought to.
1--WE made lunch room proprietors
put in tuberculin tested milk in place
of the milk with lower per cent OF
butter fat, and got the girls to drink
it by putting up attractive posters ad-
vertising it, The hardest item to re-
place in the girls menu was the ice
cream. Here again we resorted to
psychology and had sandwiches dis
played in tempting style, all the whole
discouraging the eating of ice cream
at lunch. Needless to say the girls
do better in their studies on the
common sense diet"

bers of the legislature in regard to the
state institutions the appropriations
for these purposes for the institu-
tions will also be much larger than
they were two years ago, in spite of
the cry for economy and reduced ex-
penses.
Just what will happen to these bills
when they are introduced in the house
is a question. The house is full of
farmer members and members from
small towns, and they have thus far
stood opposed to increasing salaries
for anybody or increasing expenses in
any way. Every time bill has shown
up to make an increase they have
jumped on 1t and kicked the life out
of 1t. Whether the appropriations Nbiil
will suffer the same fate no one can
TELL but it is safe to assume that there
will be someone ready with amend
ments to cut out the proposed in
creases in salaries, for there are in
creases proposed In army places where
there is no justification for any in
crease.
