FUTURE EDUCATIONAL PROBLEM

A statistician, taking the increase of university enrolment in the last six years and projecting it into the future, finds that in 1850 there will be 1,13S, 900 students in 210 institutions which en- rolled only 294.000 students last year
 Of course, this calculation rests upon
 the assumption that the increase will continue and that the 210 institutions will absorb it. but there is no assurance that either assumption is true. New
 institutions will be founded in the next 80 years. which will tend to hold down attendance at universities already established, and 1t may be that eduea- tional theories and fashions will change sufficiently within that time to bring university growth to a point where it is
 no more rapid than the growth of the country. It is Q matter of common re-
 mark that many young men who attend universities makes their way through and escape the professors with scarcely a suspicion of anything that can be called education linging to them. Many a university professor will lend at least | a qualified support to that statement. and some of them write to the mRga zines now and then for the purpose of expressing a similar opinion
 Perhaps a growing perception that it
 is barely worth while to send such
 young men to universities will help to
 solve the problem presented by a stu dent demand which constantly y out grows the university supply.-Ex- change

CALL FOR uNwRlTTEN BOOKS

The Publishers Weekly has collected from public libraries a list of unwritten books that should be available. In, cluded in this list is a book on cookery practice, an illustrated monograph on cameous or a history of Moslem art, an up-to- date, comprehensive American book on iron and steel metallurgy.
 Histories of Armenia and Oregon are alike demanded. A book on cobble- stone fireplaces. with dimensions and drawings. is wanted, and another on European peasant costumes.
 Enough is said on the lack of a new etiquette book when 1t is stated that the latest good one Is dated 1913. A work to prevent amateur gar deners from pulling up a plant instead of a week" would be as useful as ar 1 index to essays of q treatise on septic i tanks. The field in concordances is enormous.
 Any one with ten years to spare car start a Browning Concordance at once i A history of the novel from the very | beginning and in all countries" is rather more ambitious proposal, pre-. paratory reading for which might oc. cupy a few decades

Make Your Hens Lay
 With Electricity

Wideawake Riddle put more eggs in the nest. A hen will work as long as 1t is light, and as result produce more eggs in summer than in winter. When the shorter days come she sleeps more and works less. Live poultry men. have solved the problem of how to keep her on the job after the sun goes down. They simply install electric lights in the hen house and the hen works on a summer schedule-talxing to the bright lights just like all chickens.
 The Certified Egg Farm of Madison. Wis, had adopted the plan with great l success. Profits are doubled, so states the enterprising proprietor, NIT. Bur roughs, who selected a well known power and light outfit that gives excel i lent service under heavy duty condi- tions. He specializes m raising single comb White Leghorns taking great care to sort his stock carefully so as to i keep only the best layers.
 These by the use of eletric light in the pens are put on regular working hours a. m. to g D. m. summer and winter. This insures increased produe- tion on the Certified Egg Farm for the
 only union in this egg factory is that
 between pure bred bens and pure bred

GOLD DIGGER IF
 49'S REPLACED
 BY NEW DREDGE

Another picturesque figure has been erased from the pages of the country's romance. The Californian of the 49s has long typified the perseverance and courage of Western life. His pick and shovel, oil lamp and screen have been symbols of progress. Many a youth has gone West" to dig for gold with his only experience the recollections of the romance of how fortunes were started in the gold fields of Nevada and Cali fornia
 The old time prospector, who laid out | his claim and then washed up the rivulets and creeks in his frenzied search for the nuggets which spelled wealth and comfort, has come to the turn in the road of the worlds advance. In place of the weary miner bending and laboring over the soil. comes the S350,000 steel dredge which has been set up in the Comstock district of Nevada | 4 company has acquired TOO acres fin this golden valley and every foot of this plot will yield up its gold before it com pletes it's task. Beside being the first electrical gold digger in history it boasts of another achievement in being an electrically welded outfit without a bolt or rivet in all it's structure. It Is knit together as one solid unit.
 4 long line of buckets, each weigh ing 200 pounds. scoop the gold laden gravel and lift it to the top of the mill Each bucket holds nine cubic feet and the line is dumped at the rate of 20 per minute. At the top of the dredge the gravel enters a sort of revolving coal sitter and is washed by a stream of
 water flowing in a direction opposite the passage of the gravel.
 The nuggets remain on the screen
 while the waste passes through the dredge and the dredge moves through
 the desert leaving behind it a pathway of mined soil. So important did the
 people of Nevada regard this innova- ton that the starting of the dredge was
 an occasion for jubilee on the desert
 More than 2,000 of the states most
 prominent people headed by the gover-
 nor. motored out into the desert to start
 that 1920 gold miner into motion. Its
 results to date have far exceeded the
 most extravagant claims" made for 1t ! How often has this sentence been used { when story after story is told of tn.

DOUBLE-M

In the second and third years Of chllo ilIe there is a period of "com- mon consciousness" when he reflects the moods of those about him laughing with those that laugh, weeping with those that weep. and frightened, em oarrassed and unhappy when Mother ana Father indulge in changing moods pettlng him one moment and scoldirk nm the next. At this period the child has hardly learned to think of himself at all.
 He has simply breathed an atmos- phere. If this is consistently cheerful he grows Into consistent cheerfulness and does not feel at home in any other mood. If the atmosphere is dolefuI that mood seems natural to the child and 1t Is hard to feel entirely like him self in hearty laughter or jolly sur roundings. It is easier to be serious or even solemn.
 But when the atmosphere is always charged with electricity and sunshine is constantly interrupted by storm it Is hard for the child to feel entirely at home in any mood whatever And then, a little later, when he be ] gins to assert himself. if he is con l stant1y crossed and opposed by those | he loves, chided for going his owr way and bullied into submission to the will of others very definite conflict is set up within him.
