STUDENTS LIKE MATTED
MILK AND CIGARETTES
Spend $l4,l2O Annually for Milk and
$500 for Supplys Weekly.

About 141 200 matted milks are con-
sumed annually by the students of the
University of Michigan. at cost OF
s14,120, enough money to buy good
meal for 56,4SO people, says Madison
dispatch. This is not a mere guess,
but the carefully compiled figures sub
mitted by dealers in the university
district.
The straws used in the matted milks
il placed in direct line. would reach
thirteen miles. The matted milk
consumed would fill a reservoir of
thirteen thousand gallons. over three
tons of the dry powder is consumed
year
Figures show that 100000 cigar
cites are consumd annually by stu
dents. at a cost of $500. The cigar
cites. if placed in direct line, would
reach around Lake Mendoza twice.
There is enough paper in the cigar
cites consumed to make 1900 library
books of 100 pages each. There are
enough cigarettes consumed to sup
ply every one of the 5000 students
with 10 cigarettes year
Uncle Sans share of the tax which
the students pay, amounts to about
$3.50. If one man smoked the cigar
cites continually for eighteen hours a
day, it would take him six years to
smoke all the cigarettes consumed by
the students in one year
The total cost of the matted miIks
and cigarettes amounts to $780,
enough to put seventy-three students
through one year of the university.
The total amount spent for these lux
uries would buy Libraries of the best
literature for 800 families. supplying
100 books to each family.

Protection in the Ballot.

Messrs. Editors
If any woman in Annapolis doubts
that there is protection in ballot, let
her think upon the recent occurrences
here.
The reading public learned that two
raids had been made, one upon a large
place kept by man, another upon q
small place kept by woman.
In both cases the police found suffi-
cient evidence to make arrests, so the
reading public is informed and yet the
man is not even brought to trial while
the woman is tried, convicted, and is
now held in jail
To the reading public the evidence
against the man was quite as strong
as that against the woman, perhaps
stronger, why then was he allowed to
go free. and she held2 Why one if
not both?
Do not women. also, need the pro-
lection of the ballot?

LEADS IN TOBACCO.
United States Largest Producer, Ex-
portor, Importer and Consumer.

The United States holds first rank
among the nations of the world as
producer, exporter, importer and con-
sumner of tobacco. Our production of
leaf of all sorts averages somewhat
more than 1,OO0,OO0.0O0 pounds year,
having value to the producer Of
about S1OO.OOO,OOO.
An enormous quantity is exported
considerable more than third of the
production in normal years-and the
sales of tobacco abroad are excelled by
only seven other products. They ex-
coed in value such items as cotton
manufactures, electrical machinery.
paper and paper projects and leather
and leather manufactures.
Taking the export figures of the De-
partment of Commerce for the eight
months ended with February this year
the exports of leaf tobacco amounted
to 221 ,12s.s72 pounds. valued at s2s.-
077.6S4. and of manufactured tobacco
were valued at $4,209 ,054.
The disIocation of trade resulting
from the war has had its effect on to
bacco sales, however.as on most other
businesses. Unmanufactured leaf has
suffered most.
Manufactured tobacco is holding its
own. due to the increased demands
from the Far East and Oceanic. In
the actual war zone the increased con
sumption by the men in the field is
more than Offset by the economies that
must be practiced by noncombatants.

There Is = great future in store for
Montana through the medium of the
great American hog. At different
times during the past few years it has
been shipments of Montana swine
that have sold for record prices in the
stockyards of Chicago, Omaha and
st. Joe, as we'll as at the Pacific coast
packing centers, to which many are
sent. Montana is fast establishing a
home market for hogs. and with this
encouragement the farmers of the
state are each year devoting more
and more attention to swine breeding.

play of pure bred swine ever gathered
in the Northwest. The Poland China

shows of it's kind ever held in the

of $4,000 in cash and special premiums
is offered in the swine department of

In fighting sleeplessness l have found
nothing so helpful as a simple pro-

proved to be fundamental to sleep.
These are:
Mental and muscular relaxation, lim-

m%OnotOny Of sensation.
To obtain these the next time you

wall of your room some ornament or
spot which, by easOn of a ray of light

taking care that you lie in such a way
that you can see the spot on the wall
without straining any part of your
body.
Next. remaining perfectly motionless
and thinking of nothing but the spot
on the wall. gaze at it through half
closed lids in such a way that it seems
remote and indistinct.
Be sure not to try to get a full view
Of 1t. That would mean tension. not
relaxation. and would defeat your pur-
pose. Your gaze at the spot. while

them once more. Before long you will
find it impossible to open them. for you

Miners Of West Virginia DO eiaasr
Job Of Exeavatine.
Do you know that the coal miners Of
West Virginia have actually outdug the
%excavators Of the Panama canal? The
big canal has been advertised in a hun.
dred ways. says the Coal Age. Not a
word has been said about the even
more wonderful feat Of the miners.
That's why you don't know that In the
eleven years while the much heralded
work at the Panama canal was pro.
ducing 295, 323.OOO cubic yards of earth
and all Of the e%xcavating vas being
done on the s~urface-the coal miners of
West Virginia were getting out Of the
bowels of the earth 542. 949. 446 cubic
yards. Think Of It!
When the engineers Of the Panama
canal in 1908 began their work they
made a careful survey and found that
approximately 49,. 900 cubic yards
Of excavation we're necessary. This
was regarded a. a ~stupendous under
taking and was commonly spoken of
as the largest excavation job the world
has ever seen. LabOrers were import
ed to the canal Zone and column after
column was written showing how mar
velously these laborers were making
the dirt fly under the direction of the
most expert engineers the world has
ever seer.
But the 1875 .33oo3. 900 cubic yards, the
original estimate. were not all that the
Panama canal laborers were to dig
after they had started. On account of
the slides in Culebra cut another 1OO,-
100000 cubic yards We're to be added
to their work. This made 295 800. 900
cubic yards. which were dug in eleven
years.
Under conditions far more difficult

has paid little attention.
But the fact remains that the men
who work underground in the mines of
West Virginia have done a vastly big

men who work in the open on the
