On June 10, a special examination
conducted by the State Department
was held at the Platteville Normal
| School for candidates DESTROYS of
obtaining state licenses to teach agri-
culture in public high schools. The
examination was searching, candi-
dates being examined in Botany and
Farm Plants; Farm Animals; Farm
Mechanics; Farm Physics and
Chemistry and Soils, Crops and
Seeds.
Thirteen seniors took this examina-
ton, eleven of whom were success
full in passing the examination. Their
averages were especially good. The
following young men receive state
! licenses: Curtis G.. Callow, Cobb;
Lester F. earns, Platteville; Clarence
Henderson, Riley; Stairway Jacka,
Mineral Point; Charles H. Kendall,
Dodgeville; S. E. Livingston, Liv-
ingston; E. NJ. Pallett, Fennimore;
L. o. Saether, Blanchardville; Court
ney Sherman, Mineral Point; Preston
Willis, Platteville; Curtis E. Chestle-
son, Mt. Horeb.
The highest standings were made
by Messrs. Sherman, Kendall and
Willis, Mr.. Sherman of Mineral
Point making the highest average.
The success of these young men
means much, both to them personal
ly and to the schools in which they
teach. A high school giving in
struction in an approved course in
agriculture taught by teacher hav-
ing a state license, receives state aid
amounting to several hundred dollars.
Several of the young men had hired
out to teach in high schools with the
understanding that their salaries
were to be Immediately increased if J
they could make good in securing |
state licenses. Mr.. Kendall has just |
written in that his salary has been
increased SIS for the year and that
he will introduce a course in agri-
culture in the Cobb High School.
Principal C. M. Chapman of Blanch-
ardville is in town today and was
much pleased to learn that Mr.. Jacka
has secured his state license. Mr.. |
Jacka is to teach in the Blanchard
vile High School and his success
means an increase of SIS per month
for the year.
The new course in agriculture
which will be opened in the Platte
vile Normal next September will |
give splendid opportunity to young
men who wish to teach this important
subject in the high schools of the |
state. -Platteville Journal.

SIP BEEF is NOW PREDICTED
Drouth of Last Fall Blamed for In
crease in Price.

Cattle prices are advancing rapidly
at Chicago and all other western
points and Chicago dealers are fore
casting $40 and even $12 for beef for
next winter. At Kansas City last
week cattle on the hoof reached the
highest point in the year.
Packers and shippers say that the
scarcity of cattle and the consequent
increase in prices are the result of
the drouth last fall, which compelled
the raisers to rush their cattle to
market even on the falling prices.
Packers say that the consumer, a:
usual, will pay the increase.

COTTON WAITING +
ORDERS FROM MILLS
FOREIGN BUYERS FEAR THAT
THAT THEY WILL BE UN.
ABLE TO SHIP.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. THE cotton
trade in Mississippi finds itself in a
state of decentralization on the eve
of the opening of a new season, be-
cause of the European war situation.
Buyers representing European spin
ners are in a quandry because of the
grave doubt whether they will be able
to ship cotton, if purchased. In nearly
every instance they have received in
structions from the mills to dc nothing
until further orders.
The quandry Of the foreign buyers
is no worse than that of local factors.
1t is feared that banks will be unwil-
ling to advance money on cotton pur-
chases while there is no immediate
prospect of making foreign shipments.
The marketing season will doubtless
open with these uncertain conditions
prevailing, and the fact that the farm
ers in this state, generally speaking,
have raised splendid crops, is dis
counted by the fear that the staple

MISSISSIPPI BALLOT As
LARGE AS NEWSPAPER
NINE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
WILL TAKE A LARGE AMOUNT
or SPACE.

Jackson, Miss, Aug 7.-When the
voter goes to the polls in Mississippi
next November he will be called upon
to vote the most complicated ticket
ever presented to the electors in this
state.
The ticket will contain, in the first
place, the names of the various nomi-
nees for office in full. Following the
names of the nominees will be the nine
proposed amendments to the constitu-
ton of the state. Three of these
amendments, besides those dealing
with the supreme court will be printed
on the ticket, one of which is entitled
"a concurrent resolution proposing an
amendment to Section 80 OF the con-
stitution of the state of Mississippi.
providing for the initiative and refer
endum." Other amendments are. "A
concurrent resolution to amend section
81 Of the state constitution, so that
nine or more Jurors In civil suits may
agree on q verdict and return It as the
verdict OF the jury" "A concurrent
resolution proposing an amendment to
section 255 Of the constitution relating
to apportioning the senators. and CIV
ing to South Mississippi a larger rep
resentation In the state senate" The
names Of the candidates and the nine
amendments will be printed on tick
ct Of several columns in width. This
ticket will more nearly represent
newspaper printed on one side than
any ballot ever prepared in this state.
After each of the proposed amend
ments will be printed the words: For
the Amendment; against the Amend
ment."
To vote for the amendment the voter
will put a cross mark opposite the
fords "for the amendment" On vot-
ing on the supreme court amendments
each voter has been cautioned by the
publicity committee of the state bar
association to vote for all of them, be-
cause if one amendment should carry
and others fail confusion would arise.
A study of the ticket to be voted on
in November is study of government.
The people of the state then will be
called upon to determine in what re-
spect their organic law shall be
changed.
The vote on the constitutional
amendments is nothing more or less
than referendum. The legislature
has proposed certain amendments, and
it is for the people to say whether or
not they shall be ratified and become
law.
In statement given to the press to-
day the publicity committee of the
bar association says:
1.-THE title to each amendment clearly
indicates its purpose, except as to the
amendments with reference to the SUI
preme court entitled, "A concurrent
resolution proposing an amendment to
the constitution by eliminating there
from Section ISL To understand this
amendment it is necessary to refer
to the constitution of the state, which
can be found in any lawyers office.
This amendment simply leaves it to
the legislature to provide how vacan-
cies shall be filled in lieu of the pres
ent requirement of the contitution that
vacancies be filled by the governor"

NATIONAL PARK
HAS 90 GLACIERS
THREE SQUARE MILES OF ICE
FLOWING DOWN MOUNTAIN
SIDE.

That the ice fields of Glacier Ma
tional Park present some of the best
examples of active glaciers now found
in the United States, is a statement
made by Mr.. w. c.. Alden in a pamph.
let just issued by direction of Secre.
tary Lane. "They have a splendid
setting in magnificent alpine scenery
says Mr.. Alden, unsurpassed in grand
eur anywhere. Hidden away in the
recesses of the mighty mountain
ranges, these rare and wonderful fea-
lures form a climax to many of the
interesting trips open to the tourist.
There are in the park about 80
small glaciers, ranging in size from
Blackfeet Glacier, with it's three square
miles of ice, down to masses but a few
acres in extent, yet exhibiting the
characteristics of true glaciers.
after examining these features, one
can easily picture to himself, as he
looks down the valleys, the great riv-
ers of ice which in ages past cascaded

from the cliffs below the upper cirques,
converged as tributaries from the
many branch valleys, and united in
great trunk glaciers. In imagination
he can see these great glaciers, many
hundreds of feet in depth, filling the
great mountain valleys from side to
side, and deploying thence upon the
bordering plains. He seems to see
these mighty engines plucking away
the rock ribs of the mountains, smooth
ing, grinding, and polishing the frregu-
larities and sweeping away the debris
to be spread on the plains below
These glaciers developed and extended
three times and, after each develop
ment, the CONCEALED masses melted
away on the return of milder climatic
conditions. until at length only the
