Farm Graduates In Great Demand.

That the world wants the trained
for-results man Is shown by its call
for those who have had practical ex-
perience coupled with education.
In no previous year have there been
so many requests for farm managers,
fOremen, herdsmen and general farm
hands, as have come to the college of
agriculture at Madison this season.
There is, also, great demand in the
teaching profession for men who have
had actual farm experience 60 round
out their collegework.
The 1915 graduates of the long and
middle courses in agriculture are fill
ing positions in many lines of work.
The number of this year class alrea-
dy engaged as farm managers, fore
men, dairymen, and in other lines of
practical farm work, is fifty-one, as
high school teachers, twenty-one; in
college, including research work and
normal school work, thirteen; in agri-
cultural extension work. seven; with
machinery companies, four; in agri-
cultural newspaper work, two, and in
miscellaneous positions, eight.
The demand for graduates of these
courses is attracting the attention of
Wisconsin's boys. A larger number
of requests for the new circular, de-
scribing the long and middle courses
in agriculture, were received by the
college during the past twelve months
than in any former year. Graduates
from accredited high schools are adj
mitted to these courses, on the same
basis with those entering other cour-
SEES, in the University.
The middle course is designed espe-
cially to meet the needs of those who
cannot spend more than two years at
the University and who expect to re-
turn to the farms. In this course
work in mathematics and language,
required in the long course, is cut out
and more agriculture is given the first
year. In the second year, the student
specialiZes in his chosen branch of a.
griculture. Before taking the second
year of this course, however, he must
have had at least one full year OF
practical farm experience.

Answers Newspaper Attack.

Governor Philip recently made the
following reply to an attack on his
tariff position by the Milwaukee Jour
nal.
The Milwaukee Journal has taken
me to task for advocating a protective
tariff. wish to remind the Journal
that am a republican, not of the hy-
phenated type, and was elected as
such.
81 want to remind the Journal that
this is republican state, and that
the republican party always has been
and is now the advocate of a protec-
tive tariff. The Journal knows that
for many years governors have been
elected, not one of whom would have
dared to repudiate republican princi-
pies, including the protective tariff,
while he was candidate for office.
81 want protective tariff for the
Wisconsin farmer because l believe it
to be clearly in his interest to have it.
Il want to save the Pacific coast
dairy market for Wisconsin, instead
of suTrendering it to Australia and
New Zealand.
81 want the Wisconsin potatoe
grower to have tariff that will pro-
tect him against impOrtations from
Europe and Canada. so that he may
supply the market of the south.
II want the Wisconsin beef raiser
to be protected against importations
from South America and Australia.
II want the Wisconsin manufact-
urer and the manufacturers of our
country to be protected against un-
fair competition of other countries in
our market.
"All this does not mean protection
for monopoly, but protection, so far
as it is needed TO permit our indus
tries to survive and to enable our ma
nufacturers to pay American wages
to American workingmen.
because someone has taken an I'M
reasonable advantage of good and
business-like system is refutation of
the assertion that we need it. 1t does
seem that with regulation of business
on every hand and every where it
should not be difficult to stop any
mean advantage.
