Women's School January 26 to 80.
With the exception of the one week
school in home economics, all of the
special meetings called in Madison for
the last week of January and the first
week in February have been cancelled.
This action was taken to prevent
the further spread of the foot-and-
mouth disease. but as the holding Of
the school for women would not add
to the danger from this source it was
decided to take on this feature accord
ing to schedule.
The work this year will b.. similar
to that which has proved SO popular
with the women in attendance at the
preceding courses. The members of
the Home Economics department of
the University of Wisconsin will be
assisted by other authorities on sub
jects of interest to the women not
only of the farm but of the town. city
and village.

He was for twenty four years in the government service, with assignments to Hawaii and this territory. He is an expert stenogra- pher and his long experience with gov ernment routine has splendidly equip ped him for the business he expects to launch.

SCHEME WOULD WORK
 IN ALASKA

Just now, when the rivers are swol- len and filled with running ice, the question of crossing them with teams and heavy rigs is of more than pass ing interest. One or two aerial trans fers have been provided in the terri tory. but there may be room for i'm provement. A scheme that would be practicable in Alaska as well as else where is in use in New Mexico, and comprises a movable platform or ferry on the trolley scheme. Two cables are used. from which the ferry is suspended. Heavy rigs drive on and off the platform with ease. The Min ing Press gives an illustration of the scheme, and refers to it as follows:
 "The mining district of Mogollon, New Mexico, has obtained a perma- nent highway outlet to Silver City and other points by means of a novel aer- ial ferry which was recently construc. ted across the Gila river at Gila. This overhead tram is of the wire cable type of construction, and is operated by small power plant. It is 90 miles from Mogollon to Silver City, and at certain periods of the year, before the aerial ferry was built, the line of com munication was frequently interrupt ed for days by floods in the Glia river, which made fording of that stream impossible. It occurred to Thomas Lyons, who owns a farm near the treacherous crossing, that it would be a feasible plan to build a cableway a. cross the river, by means of which mine motor trucks and other vehicles could cross at all times. The plat form, which is suspended from the ca bles, easily transports loads of as much as 16,OOO pounds across the stream. The establishment of thls crossing is of great benefit to the min ing industry of the Mogollon district" ["
 Such a scheme as the foregoing, if found adaptable, would obviate to a great extent te delays occasihoned in ferrying over the running ice or through the swift current of streams In the fall and spring, and thus facilitate mail, passenger and other traffic, and the devices probably could be used in summer, if desired, instead of the river ferries. On swift and dangerous streams, such as the NJ gina, the installation of such ferry might be of great advantage the year round, and possibly prove more eco nomical than bridge building.

BERING SEA CASE
 HAS BEEN DECIDED

In the case of the United States vs. the Boring Sea Commercial company, the Juneau land office is in receipt of a decision from the secretary of the interior, holding that the reservation of one-quarter of mile in extent from the shore lines of navigable wa ters in Alaska are created only by homestead locations and the filing of soldiers additional homestead sur veys and trade and manufacturing site locations.
 This decision restricts the applica- tion clause of the land laws of Alas ka to the three classes of claims men, toned
 In 1913 the department held that mission sites. Indian claims, mining claims, townsite claims, and in fact any kind of appropriation of public domain along shore lines, must ob- serve reservations formerly created by such locations. Subsequently, this rule was modified to exclude mining claims from it's operation.
 Now the department holds that only claims asserted under the act of March 8, 1903, create the reservation.

SIR DOUGLAS HA|C
 NOW NATIONAL HERO

LONDON, May 27-Sir Douglas Haig, who has won high praise in Sir John French's dispatches, was scarce ly known in England at the beginning of the war, outside of the army. He first came into public notice at the battle of Aisne, where his conduct was described by his superior as bold. skillful and decisive" At Ypres his reputation was further en- hanced, and now his work at Neuve Chapelle has made him a national he TO.
 Sir Douglas Haig began his prac- tical military education with Sir John French. He was chief of staff to French, then colonel, in the brilliant series of minor operations that pre- pared the war for Lord Roberts ad- vance at Colesburg, in South Africa.
 Besides his Boer war experience Sir Douglas has served on the staff in In dia and been director of military train ing at the war office. In the recent summer maneuvers, he has always commanded one of the armies.
 Sir Douglas is a Scott, and a mem. Der of we'll known family.
