SELLING POTATOES SHORT.

The farmers of southern Indiana are
said to have tried typical Wall
Street game with their potato crop
They sold short When the price
rose last fall to $3.50 and 81 bushel
many of the farmers sold all the pota-
toes they had, including those they
would ordinarily have reserved for
seed. They believed that when the
bulk of the northern crop was put on
the market the price would drop, and
they could easily get all the seed they
wanted for much less than their own
crops brought
Now they are facing the necessity
Of buying seed potatoes at as high as
$3.50 and "a bushel. And many OF
them say they hesitate to plant any
potatoes at all this year. lest there
should be big production and they
should receive less for their crop than
the seed cost
Farmers Of various other sections
have probably had similar expert
ence. And it has been a salutary
warning to them. They can't be
blamed for initiating the stock specu-
lators. but it's always a perilous pro.

We -ity Of Illinois is asking the people
Of Illinois through q bill which was
Introduced in both branches OF the
state legislature yesterday, for the
sum Of $40 ,0Cl, that II may ne eE.
ahled to carry through q tenyeaE
BUILDING plan which has been laid out
for the institution. The bill asks tina.
SEQ 900 of Tie ten be mad
available fer the present biennium'
that the preliminary con5uuctio3
work may BE put under way without
delay.
Al first glance $4,000 looks like
quite an amount Of Money but it is
modest sum when taken into consider
alton what the institution and the
state will be able to accomplish
through it's expenditure. Tho men
who had & hand in framing the bill
think no1cst request has been made.
The liherality with which the REQ
Die of Illinois have dealt with the
University tho past few years is
proof that they set about to make OF
tho University Of Illinois the leading
institution Of learning Of the Un1ted
States
This ambition is new on the high
road to realization hut viii trae iii
nois pluef they DO not want to stop al
this pcal-they are now determined to
make Of it not only the leading insti-
tutian Of its kind in the United States,
but in the entire world-and they Will
attain this goal before the effort is
slackcned.
The University OF Illinois is by ali
odds the most valuable asset of the
State Of Illinois; while only in its
infancy. still there is 10 means Of
computing the sroat things the insti-
tuition is doinG, not Only for the pee
pie of the state who so proudly point
TO il rs t.eirs, but to all the states of
the middle west and much beyond
their boundaries.
There are those who have referred
10 President Eumund j. James as "
dreamer. The Gazette win admit that
he is a dreamer and the entire state
admits that all of his dreams up to the
time have come true; this is
he main reason the peoples institu
ion which lie is so wisely and con-
,tantly dreaming about is each day
more and more attracting the atten-
ion not anly Of the states Of the Unit
I'd States, but the countries of the
world.
This newspaper hopes and be-
ieves- that the people OF Illinois viii
encourage President James in his
