Emergency Fund Drawn On.

Governor Phillip, State Treas
urer Johnson and Secretary of
State Donald, sitting as the emergency
board, authorized the transfer of $780,
600 from the university income fund
to the operating fund, following con-
ference with Business Manager H. ].
ThorkelsOn. This action was neces-
sary as the last legislature, in it's
frenzy of appropriation slicing, cut the
requirements of the university budget
$135,000. By careful management, and
a reduction of the salary list through
the resignation of faculty members,
this amount was cut to 100000. The
emergency act, passed when the adj
ministration saw that it had slashed
appropriations to such an extent that
the university and other state institu-
lions would have to shut down, was
therefore brought forward and the
money quietly transferred SO the pay
roll and other operating expenses
could be met.

Farmers mpIain.

That conservation really cOnserves
is evidenced III a letter received by
the conservation commission from a
resident of Avoca asking that some
body be appointed by the state to
have charge of the herds Of deer in
Richland county.
One herd of thirty in the neighbOr-
hood of this petitioner is somewhat
of a nuisance to farmers as the ami
mails have little respect for line fences
and rather fancy appetites for young,
growing crops, a combination that is
discouraging to the agriculturist at
times. And so he has asked that the
state, having enacted a law protecting
deer in that county all the year round,
measure up now to its responsibility
and provide caretaker for it's wards
Heretofore similar complaint has
come from Sank county, where deer
also are protected at all times and a
resident of Baraboo notified the com
mission that he had found a doe en-
tangled in a wire fence and somewhat
injured. He asked permission to keep
and care for it until it RECEIVERS. The
permission was granted, but no steps
have been taken to appoint a guardian
for the Richland county herds.

Building bridges, constructing rail
roads. retaining arid land, working in
gas, telephone, electric and wa
ter plants, busy in great manu-
factories, in mines and on rail-
roads, 100 graduates of the college
of engineering Of the University Of
Wisconsin are scattered all over the
United States and in many foreign
countries.
There is almost no great engineering
project launched in the country or its
territories in which a Wisconsin engi-
neer is not engaged in some capacity.
Graduates are scattered over forty
two states, besides Alaska, the Dis
trict of Columbia, Hawaii, Philippine
islands and the Panama canal zone
Ten foreign countries also employ
Wisconsin MISUNDERSTANDING, Mexico,
Cuba, Jamaica, Argentine republic,
England, France, Germany, Russia,
China.
About fOrty-seven per cent are en-
gagged by manufacturing concerns as
superintendent, craftsmen, designers
and in other capacities. More than
nine per cent are in government serv-
ice and nearly eleven per cent are
engaged in teaching, one per cent in
journalism; twelve per cent are con-
sulting and contracting engineers, and
about four per cent are statesmen for
machinery companies.
Many large concerns send repre-
sentatives annually to the university
to secure engineers, and the number
of others who call for men is increas-
ing. There is an unusually large &c
mand this year for engineering grad
yates. About 100 men will finish their
courses in June, and already many
firms have sent calls for men to the
college of engineering.
An interesting feature is the grow
ing practice of the smaller and more
miscellaneous manufacturing COM
panies to make use of technically ed
ucated men in both manufacturing
and sales departments. Technical
journalism is another new field for
trained engineers which number have
entered E. T. Howson, '06, civil engi-
neering editor of the Railway Age
Gazette, Chicago, is one Of the most
prominent of these.
Among the prominent graduates
who hold important positions are Ed
ward Schildauer, electrical and me-
chanical engineer in charge of the
canal; G.. c. Thorpe, ,vice-president of
the Illinois Steel company; j. G.
Wray, chief engineer of the central
group of Bell Telephone company
lines; S. S. Rumsey, chief engineer
of the Oliver Iron company, United
States Steel corporation, and e. E.
Hummer, general superintendent of the
Great Northern ore properties at Du-

child labor conference will be held
In Asheyille, February to 6, the Ma

Ter, of the Ethical Culture society,

China Papers
Kicking Because
Japs is Coming

PEKIN, China, Jan. 10.-Chinese
are bitter in the criticism
OF the constant stream of Japanese
who are pouring into Hardin. The
Russians deny the Japanese residents
in the Russian concession; consequent
ly, they live in the Chinese section of
the city. The Hsui Chung Kuo Pao, a
Chinese paper published in Pekin,
gives the following list of the occupa-
tons of Japanese now residents in
Hardin: Bank, 1; general importers,
II; factories, 8; hospital, l; drug
stores, 81; hotels, 3; tailor shops, Z;
s; Partnerships, Il; bath
parlors, 6; restaurants, 10; builders,
4; disorderly houses, o.
This paper charges that practically
all the Japanese drug stores deal large
ly morphine and opium and openly
violate Chinese laws prohibiting he
sale of these drugs.

THE WAR BALANCE.

One of the most trustworthy esti-
mates of the cost of the war in men
AID money up to the end of 1915, gives
these grand totals:
Number of men killed, wounded or
captured in all armies, 100000.
Cost of the war in current expenses,
to all the beIligerents, $24,880,0OO,OOO,
Thus the number of men put out Of
business is greater than the total pop
ulation of Canada or New England, or
all the Rocky Mountain and Pacific
Coast states together.
The money expenditure is as great
as the total estimated wealth of Aus
tria-Hungary, greater than that OF
Italy and as great as that CT Belgium,
Spain, Holland, Switzerland and Por-
ugal together.
The known dead amount TO 1,720,OOO.
To these should be added, perhaps,
hundreds of thousands registered a S
missing" Imagine, instead of the
Iriquois Theatre disaster, the entire
population of Chicago wiped out by
some catastrophe.
The daily cost of the war has aver
aged $88,OOO,OO0. It's more than that
now, but that's quite enough. It's
about six times as much as all the sal
aries and wages paid by all the manu-
featuring industries in the United
States.
We can't grasp it, of course. But
we can grasp the fact that human life
and energy and accumulated wealth
are being wasted in such quantities
that it will take decades and, perhaps
generations, to replace them. And by
contrast with the exhaustion that Eu-
rope is mourning, we can appreciate
cur own blessings better.-Augusts

WEAK FROM GRIPPE

STRENGTH.

Il am a home missionary, was weak
and rundown after a hard spell of
IaGrippe. l had headaches, indiges-
ton and pains in my chest, and was
tired all the time. A friend asked me
to try Vinol and the result is | am
free from those troubles and l feel
we'll and strong and able to go to work
again" Mrs. Hattie Johnson, Tow
anda, Pa.
The reason Vinol was so successful
in building up Mrs. Johnson's health
is because it is a constitutional rem
edy which contains peptonate of iron
to enrich and revitalize the blood, the
n"urishing properties of beef peptone
and the healing medicinal extractives
of fresh, healthy Gods livers, all COM
bined in a delicious native tome wine

We wish every person in Americas

turn their money if it fails to benefit
