THE AVERAGE PER-ACRE
VALUE OF FARM LANDS

Below we have the average per-acre
value of farm lands in Wisconsin.
These figures are very conservative,
but from them we would consider that
the good plow lands OF Rusk county
are worth 500 per acre.
Madison - The average per-aCre
value of all Wisconsin farm lands with
improvements on March 1, 1922, is es-
timated at S114 by Joseph A. Becker,
Of the Crop Reporting Service. Last
year it was 1926, compared to $3.50 i'll
1920 and 500 in 1919. Average value
per acre without improvements is es-
timated at SIS, compared to $84 last
year, 500 i'm 1920 and $50 in 1919.
The average value Of pillow lands is
given at $S7 per acre compared to $D5
last year, 500 in 1920 and $50 III 1919.
The range of prices of pillow lands this
year was sos for poor pillow lands to
$40 for good pillow lands Last year
the range was $62 TO $122 in 1920, 500
to $125; and in 1919, $50 to $40.
Average value per acre Of cut-0ger
lands is estimated at S23, compared TO
500 last year and S2S in 1920

WHY FARMERS KICK

How often you hear the expression,
THE farmer is always kicking" Here
is one reason why he kicks.
In 1913, $500 would buy wagon,
corn binder, grain, harvester, and a
gang pillow. In 1920 it took $944 to
buy the same outfit, and in 1921, S76l
would buy it,
Figured i'm corn it took 92S bushels
in 1913. 706 bushels in 1920, and A, 142
bushels in 1921
The farmer is the one man who
brings his produce TO market and the
other fellow sets the price on it,
Then he goes to buy his necessities and
the other fellow tells him how much to
pay for it. -
Is it any wonder he kicks? There
is no other business on earth that
could be run that way and the farm can
no longer function on that system,

Has Chance to Tie

Tiger Victory in Closing
Game Would Cause Dead
lock for Collegiate Title
BY BRIGGS

The Princeton basketball team will
engage in the most important game OF
its season tonight when it meets the
league-leading University of Pennsyl-
vania quintet at Weightman Hall
Philadelphia. Penn is leading for the
intercollegiate title, having lost but
one game, while Princeton is in second
place. having suffered two defeats. A
victory for Penn would settle the
championship race, but in case Prince
ton comes out on Top an extra game
would be necessary to decide this sea-
sons title.
Princeton suffered a two-point set
back at the hands of Penn early in the
season, and later lost to Cornell, which
was the only quintet to defeat Penn.
The game promises to be closely con-
tested and hard fought throughout.
and, according to the form displayed in
the most recent contests, the Tiger five
apparently has at least an even chance
against the Quaker Penn defeated
Dartmouth by one point last SATURDAY.,
while two weeks ago Princeton won by
eight points from the Green. Yale and
Cornell are also scheduled to play at
Ithaca tonight.

William Garland
Awarded Position
On Olympic Board
Los Angeles Man to Serve
as American Member of
International Committee

GENEVA, March 17.-Willam May
Garland, of Los Angeles, has been
elected an American member of the In
ternational Olympic games committee.
This announcement was made to-day
by Baron de Coubertin, president of
the committee. The election of Garland
fills the vacancy caused by the resigna-
ton of Allison Armour, Of Chicago,
some months ago.
The election Of Garland is under
stood to have been made as the result
of recommendation by the recently
organized American Olympic Associa-
ton. Garland will serve with Profess
sor William M. Sloan, of Princeton,
as United States representative on
the international committee
Garland, who has been active in
amateur athletic circles on the Pacific
Coast for some years, presented the
invitation of Los Angeles for the hold
ing of the 1924 Olympiad in that city
following the games at Antwerp in
1920. At the conference held at
Lausanne last summer Paris was
awarded the 1924 meet and Amster-
dam the 1928 games. Recent reports
from Paris indicated that there was a
possibility that the meet might revert
to Los Angeles, but the matter # fnan-
cial support appears to have been salts
factorily adjusted,
The new American member of the
international committee is a former
president of the Los Angeles Athletic
Club, and at present is head of the Los
Angeles Memorial Coliseum project.
This stadium when built will resemble
the Yale Bowl and will have seat
ing capacity for 75000 spectators and
& quarter mile running track,

Fielding II. Yost. of Michigan, was
named chairman of committee to sft
down plans suggested. This commit
tee Will draw up definite recommended
tionS preventing recurrence OF the
scandals which recently barred more
than score OF athletes from college
sports and report back to the directors
association later, probably in April.
The directors then will pass on to the
faculty conference committee definite
recommendation on the matter for ac-
tion at the June meeting in Iowa City.
Every person present pledged himself
not to divulge any of the proceedings
other than those contained in d brief
statement. 1t announced June 19 for
the Conference golf tournament, May
%. 26 and q for the tennis tournament
both to be held in Chicago; stated that
the directors would recommend that
basketball officials could not otFiciate in
outside oamcs and made known the ap-
pointment OF Ypst as chairman Of the
corr ittee on professionalism
Of the dozens of suggestions dis
cussed it was understood that those
dealing with the reported methods of
attaching high school stars TO some
universities received the most atten-
ton. This was declared by some to be
the chief cause of violation Of the
rules on amateurism.
The general sentiment among the di-
rectors in the past has been that the
present conference rules are strong
enough if strictly enforced and the
committee is expected to present con-
crete suggestions on Tightening up the
enforcement of the regulations.
When asked about reports that they
would oppose motion pictures of foot
t.,Il X
formation about each others players
aud that general housekeeping would
result, the directors merely referred
their questionera 10 the statement
