These figures show that the Col
lege of Dentistry graduated 80 per
cent of it's enrolment for the year.
The College of Mines was lowest in
the list with only 6 per cent of
graduates.
But the conclusions of the exam
liner must not be misinterpreted. 1t
is true that each graduate of the
College of Medicine cost the state
5000, figuring as Mr.. Havill did.
But while these graduates were be-
ing turned out, many underclassmen
were receiving instruction. They in
their turn will also be finished
products" of the institution.
AS to the percentage of graduates,
Mr.. Havill determined that for the
whole institution II per cent are
being graduated. These figures
compare favorably with similar in
situations, he said.
Indications now are that the bill
providing for women to vote for pres
idential electors will pass both
branches.
County option is out of the way
and there is no chance to trade votes
on that matter such as was done when
the Sageng suffrage bill was defeat
ed in the Senate
Many members have heard from
home since the original suffrage bill
was killed. Many believe that if the
power of voting for presidential
electors is made law it will be in eff
feet referendum and will establish
whether the majority of women real
ly want the vote.
The large measure of publicity Civ

back in the Senate, they are in for
further trouble in the office of Gov
ernor Hammond. 1t is common talk
that he will veto the Gordon
goodies" if they reach him, with the
possible exception of the budget plan.
The Senate is reported to be ready to
kill all but the budget measure.
Looks like the railroads will have
to worry along for two years at least
and be satisfied with two cents mile
in Minnesota.
The railroad committee of the
Senate recommended for indefinite
postponement Dad" Westlake's bill
for a two and one-half cent fare.
Senator Edward Rustad, chairman
of the committee, and one of the
stable members of the upper body,
took the position that action of this
kind should be deferred for two
years. He pointed to the work being
done by the Interstate Commerce
Commission along rate investigation
lines as an argument for delay at
this time.
In 1914 it cost the state 5000 to
turn out a physician from Minnesota
University and $349 to place a grad
uate dentist in a position to enter
the earning classes.
These figures were made public by
Andrew E. Fritz, public examiner,
after an examination of the school
by his assistant, o. H. Havill.
The examiner prepared his figures
while considering for the time, the
university as a factory. He looked
upon the graduates as finished pro-
ducts"

Each session there is a bunch of

MILK CARRIES TYPHOID
Extreme care Should be Exercised if
There Is Any Doubt as to
Its Purity.

The milk supply in any town or
community is most important prob
lem, as milk is one of the media in
which bacteria grow. Typhoid lever
can be carried by milk and in this
way the disease may be spread. Clean
milk is the ideal, but if, for any rea-
son there is doubt as to the purity of
the milk supply it is safer to pasteur-
ize it.
Pasteurization is heating the milk
to temperature high enough to kill
disease germs but below boiling as
that changes the taste of it.
To do this accurately, thermome-
ter is necessary. Place the milk bot
ties on rack or cloth in large
kettle of water. The thermometer
should be inserted through the cover
of the bottle Heat the water slowly
until the thermometer reaches 1876
degrees Fair. Then lower the flame
or place an asbestos mat under the
kettle to prevent the water from be
coming any hotter. Keep the tenn
perature as even as possible it should
be from 140-155 degrees Fair. and
should be kept so for half an hour.
Then remove the bottles, and cool
them rapidly in cold water. After
pasteurizing milk, keep it cool, for
although most of the dangerous bac-
terra have been killed, it may still
spoil if not properly cared for.
If one has no thermometer or can
not pasteurize it, it is well to bring
the milk to boiling point, as this also
destroys bacteria.

out 1915, according to Frank Balmer

but 1915, according to Frank Balmer,
State Supervisor of County Agents,
is certain to beat all previous records
by more than 300 per cent.
There is also an enormous demand
for clover seed. In Lac qui Parle
county alone over 800 bushels of Glow
er seed will have been sold by the end
of spring. H. E. Kiger, County Agent
in Traverse county, says more clover
seed will be planted in his county this
year than has been planted the last
five years. In fact, every County Ag-
ent in the State has found such de-
mand for clover and alfalfa seed that
his office has been turned into regu-
lar seed exchange. Each one of them
is listing the seed which local farm
ers wish to sell and finding buyers.
In this way not only will there be a
large acreage of clover and alfalfa
planted but those who sow seed will
be able to use good local seed, which
is always the best.
The unusual use of clover and alfal-
ia seed in Minnesota not only indi-
Gates that more fertility will be re-
tanned and stored up in the soil in the
future but that more live stock will
be kept to consume the excellent
roughage raised.
Many of the Freeborn county farm
ers will plant their first alfalfa this
year, while practically all who have
experimental with it are satisfied
with their results and will increase
their acreage.
