LAKELAND WELL
REPRESENTED
At COLUMBIA

New York, July 2S.-The ten thou.
sand students now at Columbia
among whom are large delegation
from Florida and the south, are at
tending the most eventful summer
session in the university's history.
lhey have just witnessed a big ad-
vance in the university's policy to
provide a liberal education for all
who desire it, 70 matter where thev
live, by the establishment Of a system
OF nome study which will carry high
er learning to the remotest corners
OF the Union. They comprise a
student body which has broken all
records for summer schools. They are
pursuing courses boarder in extent
and variety and are taught by a
greater staff of instructors drawn
from wider geographical range of
colleges and universities than ever
tefore. Everywhere the wars ;nflu-
ence is in evidence. The curriculum
shows this clearly and the attitude
Oh the student body reveals an intel
lectual quickening Enthusiastically due
to the Christening effects Of the world
conflict.
A great many of the southern str
dents who number more than 1000
are teachers and they are keenly in
terested in educational policies. They
are unanimous in approving the step
taken by the Department of Extension
Teaching in favor of extending the
university's resources to the home
Among them the opinion is general
that Columbia University, the larg.
est in the world, should utilize the
great body of students of special sub
]ects which it has assembled in it's
teaching staff, not only in giving
courses in certain subjects which can
re carried on in the home, but in re-
spending to requests for suggestions
Tor textbooks for individual and com.
munity study.
The university graduates among the
Florida delegation agree with the
university policy Of giving no acad
amic credit or degree for Home Study
work, but to recognize it by an an
statement from the regis
rar OF the University. The Southern
jlub' composed of seventeen states is
one OF the most active among the
state organizations of the Summer
session. 1t will soon present a big
pageant in the university gymna SUM

We wouldn't think W. w. Flour.
roy would feel particularly encour-
aged in his race for the United
States Senate by his latest political
experience. He was candidate for
Mayor in his home town. DeFuniak
Springs, and before the election his
opponent received an appointment of
some kind and withdrew from the
race. 1t was then too late for any
other candidate to get his name on
the ballot, but despite this, Mr..
Flournoy was beaten, the voters writ
ing the name of another man on .
sufficient number of ballots to effect
this result. That's treating him
rough.

AGRICULTURE and STOCK-RALSLNG

We may safely assert that it is a
foundationaI principle that unless
the farmer or milk producer can
make a profit. he will cut down his
production accordingly. lie must
first become prosperous or none Of
US can prosper says Mr. Frank
Baackes. Y. z. American Steel &
Wire company. so therefore we
must not clamor for the reduction
in the price OF farm products, es-
pecially milk at this time, unless
some plan may be devised whereby
the dairy man can afford 10 stay
in business. He probably works
harder and more hours for his
money than any other producer.
But I DO not mean by this that
we should pay a high price for an
inferior product. If he belongs to
a COW testing association and is
keeping cost on his COW, he Is en-
titled 10 a profit, but 1t is not fair
to demand that we snail pay the top

ColoradO-Farm operations again
resumed, including the harvesting
of a portion of the sugar beets The
snow that fell on Nov. s and has
pretty well disappeared.
Come ticut and all other New

about average; threshing going on
as much as possible. Probably the
usual amount Of blowing is done.
Florida-Farm work progressing
under ideal conditions.
IdahO-Fall blowing progressing
except in northern counties, where
snow prevents further farm work.
Enthusiastically favorable for
all agricultural operations.
Indiana--All farm work progress

exception OF a few late potatoes in

Ohio-GoOd week for farm work.
Oklahoma - The week has been

price for milk which has been pro-
duced under adverse conditions.
Above all, we must encourage
cost accounting for each COW and
wasteful methods must be cut out.
it Is stated by the Illinois university
that in "A recent series of tests, one
good COW was producing as much
profit as 80 Of the poorest cows in
the test.
This illustrates my point. The
public should not be compelled to
pay for milk at a price sufficient TO
make these 40 poor COWS profit
able. Such COWS should be sent to
the butcher. and the good COWS fed
for a high production. 1t costs just
as much TO feed a poor cow as il
does a good one, and milk prices
should be based accordingly.
We must have the milk for our
children, and the problem will set
tie itself when the cost of milk pro
duction on an efficient basis is es-
tablished. The COW testing associa-
ton seems to me to he the solution
Of the milk problem"

question that farmers Of Rush cOuu-
IS are asking as a result OF a demon
Stration which was recently closed
by County Agent NJ. +. DERRICK in
cooperation with the farmers and
the threshermen OF that county.
Arrangements were made with
the thresnermen to keep records Of
he amounts and kinds OF fertilizer
used by the farmers for whom they
threshed The results were az fol-
lows: No fertilizer used, % farms re
porting yield OF 1913 bushels Of
wheat per acre. 125 pounds OF ferti-
izer used. 143 farms reporting
yieid OF ia bushels; rs pounds OF
fertilizer used. 156 farms reporting
yield OF 1874 bushels; 225 pounds Of
Fertilizer used. 20 farms reporting.
yield OF col bushels BY figuring
FERTILIZER at S32 per ton and wheat
at s2.OS per bushel Mr.. DERRICK and
lhe farmers estimated that the net
profit on fertilizer for 125. 175, and
PCS pounds per acre was $3.50. $751;
end SIO.50 respectively.
Another part Of this same demon
stratlon showed that acid phosphate
gave the same yield as the mixed
fertilizer and did II at a lower cost
per acre. Ninety-two farms report
ed n yield OF 1874 bushels per acre
after an application OF 153 pounds
per acre. Two hundred ninety two
farms reported the same yield with
an average DUPLICATION OF 156 pounds
Of mixed fertilizer per acre. at a
much higher cost.

CONSTRUCTION OF GOOD ROAD
Concrete Highway Is Composed OF
Mixture of Sand, Stone, Portland
Cement and Water.

The concrete road is composed Of
a carefully proportioned mixture Of
clean, hard, well-graded sand, peb-
bles or broben stone portland cement
and water. This mixture is laid upon
the subgrade to a depth of Z inches
or more for the entire width Of the
road, and soon hardens into mass
as hard as rock. The materials are
bonded together by the cement so firm
ly that it is impossible for traffic to
loosen or separate the particles. For
this reason no expensive maintenance
is required.
Tt, foundation or subgrade Is COM
pacted where the concrete is to be
laid and the roadbed is drained so
that no water will remain under the
slab, writes A. L. Pettibone in Dakota
Farmer. Upon the foundation con-
crete is laid in one or two courses.
A one-course concrete road consists Of
a relatively rich concrete mixture
throughout. A two-course road con-
sists of somewhat leaner mixture for
q base with richer top or wearing
course, applied before the concrete In
the base has begun to harden. FIRE.
quently reinforcement in the form OF
wire fabric or steel rods is embedded
in the concrete. This assists to pre-
vent cracks in the slab and aids In
keeping cracks which may form from
!. opening to any appreciable extent.
The high wearing quality of the con.
crete road results from using properly
graded, clean, hard sand and pebbles
or crushed rock. These must be COM
bined with portland cement in care
fully measured proportions, mixed with
a power-operated batch mixer to pro-
duce a stiff plastic consistency, then
placed upon the foundation and struck
off with template or strike board,
so shaped that the surface Of the pave
ment will have the desired crown. AT.
ter rolling with light metal roller
to compact the concrete and remove
excess water used in mixing, the con-
crete is finished by seesawing a Sec
ton Of rubber or canvas betting along
