CROP REPORT OPTIMISTIC
CONDITIONS FAVORABLE AS
RESULTOF WEATHER
Small Grain Doing Well and
Corn Planting About
Completed

With continuation of the prevail
ing warm weather in Minnesota and
South Dakota no improvement could
possibly be made in crop conditions
in this territory at this time. This is
the optimistic statement made in
this weeks review of crop conditions
along the lines of the Chicago &
North Western Railway Co. west of
Winona by H. J. Wagon, the division
freight passenger agent. After re-
ferring to the frequent rains of the
past week, with cool weather in the
first half Mr.. Wagon says:
considerable corn planting has
been done and in a large part of
our territory this work has been
complete.
General Conditions.
Small grain is in fine conditions
and doing nicely. The warm weather
of the past few days over the entire
territory has stimulated the growth
of all grains in good shape.
Pastures in both Minnesota and
Dakota have abundant growth of
grass. Rain in the Black Hills ter
ritory Friday has improved this sit
uation in that district exceedingly.
There will also be an increased acre
age of potatoes in this territory this
year.
Conditions on the whole are ex-
cellent in every way and with con-
tinuation of warm weather no other
improvement could possibly be made
in the present crop situation in
Minnesota and. Dakota.

COLLEGE Church WORK
REPORT BEFORE WINONA
. =. LAKE ASSEMBLY
One In Every Seven 124, 900 Stu
dents Is Presbyterian States
Educational Review
ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch1

Winona Lake, Ind, May 25.-Dis-
covering that one in every seven OF
$4,000 college students in American
Institutions is Presbyterian, the
Presbyterian Church has established
religious education work in many
university centers of the country,
according to the annual report Of d.
Edgar P. Hill, General Secretary Of
the Presbyterian Board of Education
to the General Assembly, DR.. Hills
report said in part:
Education has become matter
OF national concern. Technically
trained men are essential in develop
national resources, in handling econ
omic problems and in furnishing
leaders in the vent of war: education
Is also matter of peculiar impor-
lance for the further reason that
ideas are recognized as of supreme
significance in determining national
destinies, and the classroom as the
battle-ground of ideas.
Presbyterians Schools Inadequate
"a conference of representatives
from training schools, theological
seminaries and of secretaries of the
missionary boards of the church re-
vealed that the Presbyterian training
schools now operating are utterly
inadequate to meet the needs of the
church. Certain issues came clearly
into the open and the following reso
lutions were adopted.
First. That the church shall enlist
and train her own lay workers.
Second, That we record our con-
viction that there is growing de-
mand for the work of the lay work
ers training schools which should be
promptly met
Third. That these training schools
should be affiliated with our theo-
logical seminaries wherever pos
sible.
Fourth, That it is the sense of this
meeting that the General Board of
Education be requested to investi
gate this whole subject of training
of lay workers, and the feasibility
of affiliating the training schools
report to another meeting which it
will call.
Remarkable Chapter In History
1.-The rise of American UNIVERSE
ties is one of the most remarkable
chapters in the history of the worlds
modern educational movements. In
1870 threre were but 5000 students
in the universities of this country.
Ten years later the number had in
creased to 10000. In 1890 the student
body was $4,000. Today there are
10000 young men and women in the
class rooms of our state educational
institutions.
During the past year survey
was made of fifty five OF these insti-
tutions, and it was discovered that
out of an enrolment of 124,416 there
were 1853 who announced them
selves az Presbyterians, or one in

of these university centers.
Almost without exception our
fifty-seven Presbyterian colleges and
rollment this year. Over 1000 stud
ents were turned away from our in
situations last fall because there was
no room for them. The greatest num-
that offer opportunities for self
help. One such college has to deny
admission to 179 applicants"

hostile gestures of strong labor sec

triumph was her tour of the Bedford
