1t is impossible for a league 'presi-

not propose to accept President Fielder
Jones resignation presented to take
effect next Saturday After closing up

ment:
THE magnates of the league do not
want President Jones to retire at this
stage of the race. l counseled against
such a move and found the directors a

BASE BALL

The Lake shore league has shrunk
to four teams. Liebl pulled his She
boygan team out as he threatened to
do if the league directors reversed the
president in calling the game played
mere July 18th ''no contest" The dir
ectors did what fair play and the rules
require in upholding the umpire who
awarded the game to Manitowoc when
the Sheboygan team walked off the
field in the 7th inning. The action
was virtual firing of the Sheboygan
crowd whose ideas of sportmanship
are of the school yard variety. Port
Washington voluntarily withdrew to
make an even number of teams. There
will be only one more game at Manito-
voc Kenosha plays here September
18th.
The two Milwaukee teams are engag-
ed in a close race for the Lake shore
league pennant., Sunday they played
each other at Athletic park in Milwau'
kee and the kosciuskos defeated the
White Sox | to 0, displacing the latter
team as league leaders. Over 1900
paid admissions made up the largest
crowd ever present in the leagues his

GOAL HOSTS BLOW DOWN.

The big steel structures of the Reiss

p 1000 ton boat under charter OF the

inloaded. The gigantic framework

broke its fall on some piles OF hatch
|covers. 1t did not touch either the
Forward or after 'houscs" and this fact
saved lives of people sleeping on
board. Two lady passengers, sleeping
Forward, did not know of the accident
until morning. The boat was damaged

First Year Students. J

The growth OF university extension
work in the United States is sketched
in bulletin recently published by the
Bureau of Education.
Some features of university extension
appeared in the work of the American
National Lyceum as early as 1881 and
additional features were embraced in
the Chuatauqua movement in the early
seventies. 1t was not until 1887 that
the English system Of university ex-
tension became known in the United
States. The work at that time vas be-
gun as an adjunct to the city libraries
In Buffalo, Chicago and st. Louis. 1t
was taken up in 1889 by the Teachers
College Of Columbia University and
this seems to have been its official be-
ginning in this country.
The first State appropriation for uni
versity extension was made by the lie.
gislature OF New York In 1891. The
University of Chicago and the Univer.
sity OF Wisconsin took up the work in
1892. After that year other universt-
ties and colleges fell into line rapidly.
Between 1909 and 1913 twenty-eight in
stitutions organized extension teaching
and In the same period twentyone in.
stitutions reorganized and expanded
their extension work.
There was period OF uncertain fa
vor after the first wave Of enthusiasm
had subsidized, but extension work has
grown In popularity with the educa
tional institutions ~;:h the people, ant
little antagonism rem aims. The auth
or OF the bulletin, DIR. Louis L. Reber
OF the University OF Wisconsin, say
responses to inquiries now are almos
uniformly favorable TO extension. Pro

FARMERS WILL FILL SIL0S.

Hay and grain are high and there is
good prospect that they are going 10
be higher. Farmers will do we'll TO
hold on to the feed they have and use
it to feed or fatten livestock.
This is the belief of George G. Hum
ptirey of the Experiment Station, the
University of Wisconsin.
Many" says Mr.. Humphrey, like
ly will be unable to resist the tempta-
tion to sell their crops at the high
prices which are now prevailing, but
l think they will do well, in most cas-
es, to keep their hay and grain. The
price of meat, I believe, is going to
rise proportionally faster than the
price of feed stuifs.
Moreover, there have been droughts
in some sections of the country, caus-
ing shortage of forage and rough
age feeds. In those districts there
will be, as result, a big demand for
grain. Thus, the Wisconsin farmer il
he carefully conserves his forage feeds,
will be in position to proftably feed
more stock.
Except for animals that are being
fattened, high priced grain, of course,
should be used very sparingly. The
great majority OF the farmers Of the
state will be we'll supplied with hay
and other forage and every man who
has silo will surely fill IL to the rool
with silage, the real value of which
very few of US scarcely realize"
