SHORT COURSE TO FEATURE
q MANY LIVESTOCK SUBJECTS

With the increased interest in
better livestock and the more eco
nomical production of it which is
being manifested in Kentucky plans
are being made by the College OF
Agriculture to give special attention
to this phase of farming in the short
course which it will offer to busy
farm men and boys during the COM
ing winter. Instruction in livestock
subjects will be given in the regular
winter course which, opens October
81. The work will include a study OF
breeds of livestock and the judging
of them, principles Of feeding, i've
stock feeding, beef production, sheer
and pork production, breeding farm
animals, farm butchering and dis
eases of livestock, together with a
judging contest which will he held
for all students taking the course.
In order to make the course as
valuable as possible in giving those
enrolled the desired training in live
stock subjects the entire animal
husbandry faculty of the college to-
gether with the livestock equipment
and the laboratories of the institu-
ton will be utilized in the studies.
Practically all phases of livestock
production from a study of the diff
ferent breed types to the marketing
Of farm animals will be given in the
course. The herds Of Hereford,
Shorthorn. Jersey and Guernsey
cattle. Berkshire, Duroc-Jersey and
Poland China hogs together with the
'focks Of Southdown, Hampshire,
Cheviot and Shropshire sheep and
representatives Of other breeds Of
animals on the college farm will be
available for Judging. Students will
be given an opportunity Of seeing
and studying individual animals Of
high merit by visiting the many
noted farms in the vicinity Of Lex
ington.

demonstrators have already been
enrolled in Carlisle, Ballard, Nc
Cracker and Livingston counties.
January l, 1922, the farmers will
start feeding balanced ration
composed of one part Of tankage
and nine parts Of corn to growing
and fattening pigs. In cases where
the animals are to be pushed for an
early market the ration will be fed
in a self-feeder since experiments
have shown that pigs fed by this
method make approximately nine
per cent faster gains than those
which are fed by hand. The demon
strations will be continued until the
animals are placed on the market
and will include the hogging down
of corn and soybeans grown to-
gether.

WHO IS JAMES TEACHER3
(By Anne Goodwin Williams)

"Who is James Teacher7" we
asked of the mother of a charming
little eight year old girl. The moth
er mentioned the name of James
teacher in the public school and
then together we performed some
arithmetical problems to prove that
"Miss Bennett" was only one Of
James many teachers and that her
teaching hours were less than those
of some of the others.
Suppose, we said, that Jane sleeps
from seven o'clock until seven then
in a year she has 1880 waking
hours-and only 1000 Of those
hours are spent in school during
the year-What Of the $3.50 hours
remainingi Who is teaching Jane,
thenf She is certainly learning.
Sometimes her playmates are her
teachers, with lessons sometimes
helpful, sometimes harmful. The
fathers teaching hours are limited
to Sundays and holidays with an
occasional evening hour; the Sun
day School teacher may get twenty
five hours a year, but of course, the
real teacher is the mother. Every
day of the year, she teaches her lit
tie daughter; even during the child's
sickness lessons continue, lessons
of patience, gentleness and self con-
troll.
If anyone were to ask of the
school teacher that she teach mus
and manual training, she would
and manual tsaining, she would
know it was impossible. And yet,
that is just what is demanded of
the mother as an educator.
Music! Yes, she is teaching music
when she sings at her work or helps
Jane select good music for the Vic
trola instead of Jazz. And as she
arranges her home tastefully, with
appropriate pictures, she is often
unconsciously forming the child's
taste in Art.
"What stories shall l read to the
children?" we kindergartners are
asked again and again by eager
mothers who feel that ordinary
"trashy" stories are not good
enough for the children who are so
greatly influenced by the stories
they hear and read.
The mother knows-this wise
mother educator who is asked to
teach domestic science, how neces-
sary it is for her little daughter to
learn helpfulness in household du-
ties. 81 can't iron big things yet
but can iron all the handkerchiefs,
daddy's and mothers and Johns
and mine," said little Jane with
pride.
Actions are judged right or wrong
according to mothers approval or
disapproval. She is, indeed, the
great teacher of morals. "Slip in
behind these people SO the conduc-
tor won't see you," / heard WON
an say to little boy one day as l
was boarding a crowded street car.
He succeeded in "fooling the con-
ductor" and in getting definite
lesson in cheating and in dishonor.
Religious training, as well as
moral, is part of the great task and
the joyous task of the teacher

matically, and probably at the

ton with a friend. My advice to
all pupils is. practice your scales
faithfully. They are beautiful,
and the more you play and study
them the more you will enjoy
them and eventually you viii be

full your exercises and pieces will
be. Listen to everything you
play, even your scales.
GA complete knowledge of
scales is very important to com
posers, because scales are really
the basis of melody. A thorough
practice of scales is necessary for
pianists to gain agility Of the fin
gers; in fact, the perfection Of
performance which is demanded
by brilliant piano work is to be
attained only by the most care
full and diligent practice of the
scales. Scale study is really a
life study" Dena Locke.

for a child they almost invariably

eagerly charging their means of
expression by employing all
kinds of unfamiliar scales (tone

these special scales (groups of
tones) the freedom of the COM

were always satisfied with their
first effort at expressing certain
thoughts? Most certainly not.
Many good compositions have
most likely been destroyed be-

Of the remark, if scales are out of

Many people are under the i'm

were being held tonight in connection
with the murder of Harry Sinclair,
40 years old, Akron sportsman, who
was killed yesterday morning while
en- route between Cleveland and Ak
ron with another man and two wo-
men.
The authorities said they would in
vestigate further stories told by Sin
clair's companions that Sinclair was
killed by shot fired from passing
automobile. The fact tht there were
no blood stains in the car or on the
clothing of the companions, although
the four were squeezed into a single
seated machine, led the authorities to
believe that Sinclair was not slain IN
the automobile nor at the time de-
signated by the man and women.

IRISH SITUATION

BRIGHT OUTLOOK
DeValera Opens Way To
Premier For Further
Negotiations
LONDON STILL HOPEFUL
Both Leaders Forced To
Keep An Eye On
Extremists
tBy Associated Press }

| London, Sept. 16-In a telegram
this evening to Premier Lloyd George
IN Scotland, Eamon DeValera is con-
sldered, in high quarters in London,
to have indicated desire for contin-
uation of the negotiations looking to
peace in Ireland which were termi-
mated momentarily, at least by Mr..
DeValera's communication of earlier
in the week insisting on the indie
pendence of Ireland and Mr.. Lloyd
Georges cancellation of the confer
ence with delegates of the Sim Feir
which he had proposed for next Tues
day.
The telegram of Mr.. DeValera was
as follows:
Il received your telegram last
night and am surprised that Won do
not see that if we, on our side, accent
conference on the basis of your
letter of September 7 without making
our proposition quite clear Ireland,s
prejudiced. If the posi-
lions were not so definitely opposed
there would, indeed, be no problem
% be discussed. 1t should be obvious
hat in case like ours if there is to
,e any result the negotiations must
meet without prejudice and untram-
neled by any conditions whatever
except those imposed by the facts as
hey know them.
Up to a late hour tonight Mr..
lloyd George had made no response,
,ut the concensus of opinion was that
ince neither side to the argument
is desirous of a rupture
n the negotiations there doubtless
would be further exchange of mes
ages.
The genera lview in London is that
he hitch has arisen because both Mr..
Lloyd George and Mr. DeValera are
to keep an eye on the ex-
remists in their respective cabinets
out that behind both there is also
strong public opinino in favor Of
peace, this feeling being as strong in
England as in Ireland.
