Few New Buildings.

There will be little building done at
any of the state institutions during the
coming hiennium. Usually from seven
70 ten buildings are ordered, but the
appropriation measures just recon-
mended for passage in the Wisconsin
Legislature disclose a policy of repair
ing the old buildings and only building
such new ones are are absolutely nee
essary. The reason given is the high
cost of building materials.
AT the nine normal schools of the
state total of S253,220 will be spent
on land and building improvements
during the coming two years. 1t is
usually eight or ter times this amount.
A small gymnasium will be started at
the Superior normal; small power
plants will be erected at Whitewater
and Plattexille, and $4,000 science
building will be erected at Stevens
Point. AT River Falls and Whitewater
temporary barracks will be construct
I'd for ciassrooms. which, when prices
go down, will be replaced with build
ings
