-sixty-three North Dakota farmers,

--Sixty-three North Dakota farmers,
who own $4,000 acres of Fhckertail
land worth more than Sl.000,000 visit
ed this state last week. The trip to
Wisconsin is the result of movement
in the northwestern states toward di-
versifed farming and dairying. Sever
al months ago the bankers Of that ter
ritory decided that farm loans would
be made on the basis of the number Of
cows owned and the amount of small
crops raised. General farming had been
tried for years in North Dakota, and
North Dakota at last realized that the
successful farmer must not depend en-
tirely on wheat. In casting about for
a state in which the lesson of diversi-
fed farming could be learned the North
Dakotans picked Wisconsin, the banner
dairy state of the union.

1000 U. W. STUDENTS FUNK.

A strange situation exists at the
state university as a result Of the re-
ports from the various classes made by
Dean Birge. One student in every five
in the entire university has either failed
or been conditioned, as a result of the
midwinter examinations. This means
that over 1000 students at the big
