Science School Notes

President Smith returned Sat-
urday night from Bismarck, where
he attended the State Teachers
Association annual meeting. Pres.
Smith reports very good pro-
gram but a very small attendance.
The enrolment was not much over
one third of the normal number
for the past four or five years. The
causes no doubt are due to the alb
normal pressure of the times to-
ward economy necessitated largely
to war conditions.
Prof. NJ. E. Todd of the Dun
woody Institute Of Minneapolis
and formerly Of the State School
of Science, spent the week end in

but after all had unmasked one
felt more at home. A lot of games
were played and enjoyed.
The Fargo College game played
at Fargo last Friday, which re-
suited in victory for the Science
team was more or less of surprise
to everyone. While we expected
to win the game we did not hope
to hold them to a scoreless defeat.
The final score stood IA to O in
Science Schools favor.
The ladies of the faculty and a
few invited friends motored to
Fargo Monday and spent the day
in the city, doing some of their
Christmas shopping.
The girls of Burch Hall enjoyed
a picnic south of the Lane farm on
the Fsirmount road last Saturday
night. A delightful lunch was
served and the entire crowd great
ly enjoyed the ocassion.

Our country is at war. This
war has been legally declared. The
act that made war legal was bind

hope for peace and pray for peace,
but let us back the government in
its war measures as long as war
prevails.

RYE SEEDED AS COVER CROP
Planted in cornfields II Frequently
Can Be Utilized as Late Fall or
Spring Pasture.

Rye seeded as a cover crop in corn
fields can frequently be utilized for
late fall and early spring pasture, or
can be allowed 20 mature and be
hogged down with satisfactory results.
At the last cultivation of corn, rye
can be seeded at the rate Of six to
eight pecks per acre. II will furnish
nutritious pasturage by fall in favor
able seasons. In the spring the crop
may be used for pasture or plOwing
under, or hogs may be turned into the
field after the grain is ripe.
Six pigs averaging A pounds in
weight were fed on a quarter of an
acre of rye for 40 days at the Ohio
experiment station. During this time
they made an average daily gain Of
half pound. While hogging down the
rye the pigs were fed a fifth of a
pound of tankage apiece daily.
Rye as a general rule cannot COM
pete with corn for hogging down, ac-
cording to specialists at the expert
ment station. 1t may be substituted
economically for corn when it is diff
cult TO harvest and thresh and when
its price per pound is about the same
as that of corn.

TREATMENT FOR AILING PIGS
Breaking Out of Body Caused by Mar.
row Ration High in Protein
Can Be Remedied.

When pigs are fed on a very mar.
row ration with high content of pro-
tein and Il limited amount of energy
and fat-forminS material, they are
subject to breaking out OF the body
which causes considerable irritation.
This has been noticed when pigs are
turned on Il pasture very rich in pro-
TEN, especially when the pigs had
previously been on a feed that was
lacking in this content. These pigs
will unquestiOnably improve if you
will feed a mixture of Il parts Of
cOrnmeal, two parts of shorts and
one part Of Oil meal along with the
separated milk. Spray these pigs
again with light crude oil and apply
over the worst spots of the body a
mixture of three parts of unsalted
lard and one part of flowers of sub
phur.

Of ducks are winging over the coves

upon which they feed is thick and|

One must not forget either, that
oysters are almost prime and the|
fishermen are gathering them by the|
boatload, and that the sea trout are|
running and watermelons are ripe.
Truly this region is friendly to man
in its abundance of things that are
good to eat. No wonder that the
Indians loved the country, and that
some of the first white men who came
to America made it their home.
1t is not land of striking beauty,

ANCIENT PROPHECY FULFILLED.

The most important change in the
Red sea has been the drying up of
its northern extremity. The tongue
Of the sea has dried up for a distance
Of at least fifty feet from its ancient
head, thus fulfilling the prophecy of
Isaiah II Is and 1875. An ancient
canal conveyed the waters of the
Nile to the Red sea. The drying up
of the head of the gulf appears to
have been the chief cause of the neg
lect and ruin of this canal.

GOOD WORK OF lNoCULATloN
That Leoumes Are Benefited Is Shown
by Several Experiment Stations
Increases Growth.

Farmers sometimes question the adj
visibility of inOculating legumes. That
legumes are benefited by incubation
has been shown by several experiment
stations. The Wisconsin, Illinois and
other stations have shown that inocula-
ton gives decidedly beneficial results.
In the first place, inoculation in
creases the total growth of the plant,
giving greater yields Of hay. In most
test cases the hay crop has been in
creased about 20 per cent and in some
instances ii has been doubled. Not
only is more hay produced, but the hay
is richer in protein and consequently
of higher feeding value, according to
w. A. Albrecht of the University of
Missouri college of agriculture. Cow
pea hay from plants, inOculated at the
Illinois station, contained 20 per cent
protein while plants not treated car
ried but 151A per cent of this valuable
food constituent. incubation enables
the plant to get nitrogen from the air
in addition to that from the soil. This
not only conserves the supply, but
when the crop Is turned under ii in
creases the nitrogen content Of the
soil.
incubation, then, is beneficial be-
cause 1t increases the yield and i'm
proves the quality of hay and enriches
the soil through the nitrogen of the
air. These benefits justify the expense
and trouble of inOcuation.

Shameful Libel.

The first man TO use bathtub as q

grant, as many persons suppose, but
conservative old New Englander,
who regarded the new-fangled tub as

the Saturday night washtub in the
kitchen. The new bathroom, being
off the living room, was found to be
convenient for storage, and they used
the tub for keeping the coal for the

To Be Of Real Assistance.

Spinoza's test in the Scriptures OF
Humanity: He who desires to assist
other people will avoid referring to the
voices Of men and will take care only
sparingly to speak of human impO-
tence, while he will talk largely of hu-
man virtue or power and Of the way
by which it may be made perfect, so
that men being moved, not by fear or
aversion but by the effect of JOY, may
endeavor as much as they can to live
under the rule of reason.

lively large quantities Of roughage and
need but little grain. OF this rough
age corn stOyer and Oat straw may
well form an important and economi-
cal part, but they should be supple
mented by other feeds containing more
protein. Sheep will eat about 25 to
35 per cent of the total weight of the

straw is not so valuable for sheep

MONTANA CHAMPION
DESERTER STATE

Camp Lewis, Tacoma, Dec. s.-Mon-
tana is credited with having the largest
number of technical deserters OF any
state sending selective soldiers to this
cantonment, officers here said today,
after checking up on the number of men
who failed to put in an appearance on
the dates set for their arrival. 1t has
cost the government $4,000 extra to
bring these men, who claim they did
not receive their notices, from Mon
tana.
Investigating the frequency of q re-
moval of soldiers from Montana in
charge of sheriffs. mastering officers
were surprised to find that in most
cases the men listed as deserters had
never left their home counties. Almost
every train arriving from Montana for
weeks has had at least one "deserter"
in charge of an officer, who receives a
reward of $50 and is allowed travelling
expenses The sheriffs. many of whom
are members of local boards, have
reaped a rich harvest.
