PARSNIPS SHOULD BE SOWN NOW
Will Thrive Better In Hot Months II
Planted in Damp Soil.

Among the slow-growing, long-sea-
son crops that should be planted in
rich soil as soon as the garden can be
got into shape are parsnips and salsi-
fly, or oyster plant The rich soil to
which well-rotted barnyard manure
has been added will hold the moisture
better to keep them growing than the
long, hot, dry summer months, and
the early planting will give better
chance for the roots to attain good
size. Sticks in the soil are likely to
bend the roots; fresh manure, to pro-
duce side branches.
Parsnip seeds should be dropped
about four to the inch in rows from
eighteen to twenty-four inches apart,
then thinned to stand three inches
apart. Satisfy may be sown more
thinly, as the seed is surer to come
up. Pulling the plants in thinning dis

CALLS ARM|NG FUTILE
DR.. John Mez Says Ships and
Guns Won't Secure the
"Freedom of the Seas.

The futility of armament as means
of securing the freedom of the seas
was argued by DR.. John Mez, formerly
of Munich, Germany, who led the dis
cussion of the International POlity
Club meeting in Room d, Y. NJ. C. A
Building, last night.
Il think it fallacious to say that we
could secure the freedom of the seas
by having the largest armament, for
that would lead us nowhere" said
Doctor Mez. President Wilson ad-
vocated the biggest navy in the world
for the United States. England says
that she needs the largest navy in
the world.
Admiral AIahan declared it was
absolutely essential for a nation to
have the largest armament His book
was translated into German, and Ger
many decided that he was right on
that subject So the Germans founded
a navy league and a navy school,
agitating all the while for the largest
navy.
THE French, the Russians, the Aus
trians and the Japanese all adopted
the same policy. Brazil has five dread
naughts, and Chile is being agitated by
an armament propaganda. Where does
it all lead?
"A nation, you say, can secure the
freedom of the sea- for itself by main
tanning the largest navy. But it is
absolutely impossible mathematically
for all nations to have the largest
navy.
Meanwhile, think of the cost A
good dreadnaught costs about $19,-
100000. A good university can be
had for S6,000,000. Think of it! Three
universities for the price of one dread
naught,
ITO my mind, the final solution lies
in such education as the Polity Club
is conducting. People must be taught
that reliance upon physical force is
rarely productive of the desired re-
suits. Since every nation is dependent
on the sea for its shipping and COM
merce and since it is of vital interest
to all nations that the sea should re-
main neutral, we must look forward
to a solution of this problem. And
the solution will come from education
toward an international agreement"

"BETTER BILLIARDS" HIS PLEA
c. c. Peterson, Exhibition Player, EN-.
phasizes Scientific Game.

Billiards, pocket and otherwise, as
clean form of amusement for men
and women of all ages, was the mes
sage of Charles c. Peterson of st.
Louis, who gave an exhibition of fancy
shots at Booche's billiard hall last
night. Peterson, who has ben called
the worlds best exhibition billiard
player and is president of the Mis-
souri, Billiard Association, is making
tour of Missouri in company with
W. A Gardner, field secretary of the
National Billiard Association, in an
attempt to make plain the scientific
side of the game and convince par
ents that billiard rooms need not be
loafing places and nests of crime
Gardner invites mothers to attend the
exhibitions and gives them a heart-to-
heart talk on billiards. Peterson "lets
the balls talk for him.
Peterson carries two sets of billiard
balls with him, educated balls, for
they go wherever he wishes. He
showed some OF the famous shots of
past and present experts, drawing the
ball the length of the table; executing
masse shots that seemed impossible.
and putting so much ION the BALI
that the audience pounded the floor
and applauded in glee. A feature of
the exhibition was the invitation to
spectators to suggest some shot which
they thought was impossible, where
upon Peterson generally made each
shot easily.
A large crowd saw the exhibition.

MisSourians are Coming to
Regard the University as
Their Very Own.

Not the University of Missouri. the

yes, even my University, The
change in expression which has come
about in the last half-dozen years is
the outgrowth of a real change in

Extension Division of the University
is carrying knowledge, ideas and ideals
into home all over the state. 1t says.
"lf you can't come TO us, we will go
to you"
Not taking into consideration the
large number of students who are con-
tinuing their University education
through correspondence courses, the
University is each year doing an in
creasingly larger amount of extern
sion work in various parts of the state.
One hundred and seventy-fve requests
for lectures have been filled since the
beginning of the school year. These
lectures have included everything
from the study of home economics to
discourses on "The Dead Sea"
Many Topics Are Covered.
Many fthe requests come from the
public schools, but women's clubs and
commercial clubs also come in for
their share of the benefits. Sociology,
home economics, preventive medicine,
national preparedness, history, the
poets and various educational sub
subjects are the. general topics upon
which these lecturers speak.
The Extension Division was estab-
lished in 1910. While extension lee
turers and extension teaching had
been carried on for many years be-
fore that, the establishing of this di-
vision was the real beginning of the
movement to put a complete practi-
cal education within the reach of
every citizen of the state Through
this department, the University inter-
ests itself in the solution of all live
problems, both general and local; it
is bringing itself into closer touch
with the daily life of the people and is
ment which is forwarding every move
ment which is any way concerns the
interests of the state
While the University pays the
travelling expenses of the lecturers to
the communities where they are to
speak, provided three towns in the !
same neighborhood arrange for meet !
ings on consecutive days or different
hours of the same day, the clubs or
making requests enter |

University makes recommendations 1t
is possible for one member of a club
to enroll for correspondence courses
in the University, obtain the material
and let all of the club use it, The en-
ire club then gets the benefit of the cor
rectiOns made on the correspondence
students papers. A fee of 81 is charg-
ed for course for which two hours
credit is given in the University; $40,
for a three hours course; $3.50, for
a four hours course If no one in the
club wants to take a course for credit
in the University, material for lin
tied number and suggestion are fur
nished free.

The exhibits will be in the faculty
room of the Library Building. Many
rare books will be displayed and also
other things Illustrative of the Shakes
pearean and Elizabethan era. The
University of Michigan library has
consented to send some valuable
books, and Columbians have also re-
sponded literally to the call for eXhib-

from 7:30 to $3.50 p. m. daily. Inform
al explanatory lectures will be made

The exhibits and lectures will be
open to the public. A special day will
be set aside for Columbia and nearby
schools and colleges. On this day spe-
cial arrangements vii be made for
students.
Seeks QuartO for Exhibit.
Every effort is being made by the
committees in chare to make the week
a success So far it has been impos-
sible TO secure an original quartO of
Shakespeare works, but Professor
Fairchild has hopes of borrowing one
from the University of Michigant
Original quartos-that is, volumes
one play-are very rare,
says Professor Fairchild. There are
not many in existence, and they cost
from $500 TO 1900. Folios are still
more rare. There were only 500 orig
inal folios printed and a great many
of these were destroyed in the Lon
don fire. One was recently sold for
$4,000, though they originally sold
for less than So. A set of four folios
was recently bought by book collect
or for $4,000.
1T will be impossible for us to get a
folio, but we may be able TO get
quarto. Columbians have been liber
al in their contributions, but We still
have room for more exhibits. 1t is
not necessary to lend books, pictures
or old documents will do"
