Since last fall the bathing euuip.
ment, including. buildings, has been
given general overhauling. Amona
the improvements made is the in
stallation Of 500 steel lockers in the
women's section, the removal OF the
wooden lockers making the bathing
pavilion practically fireproof.
The sanitary conditions have been
generally overhauled and new equip
ment installed. The big float has
been furnished with a new platform
and otherwise improved. Approx.
mately 5000 tons of sand has been
placed on the beach. The accom-
nnodations now provide for the needs
Of more than 1000 bathers at the
same time.
Practically no changes have been
made In the personnel. The man.
agement will remain the same. A
new record is expected to be made
in the number of bathers patronizing

 The next talk was made by Professor Evard, of Iowa. He took up the sub iect of feeds, and stated that it was the farmers advantage to use home grown feeds rather than purchased feeds. He stressed the point that all animals need salt; that even chickens need it.
 A talk was made by Henry Clark on feeding mules, handling mules. devel- oping mules for the market, and pur- chasing mules. Henry Clark also con- ducted the competitive judging contest of mules.
 Professor Nichols spoke on. equipping the farm for profit. He discussed sev- eral mechanical devices that would add greatly to the profit, as well as reduce the cost of labor on the farm.
 At night educational pictures on poultry and also on mules and horses was exhibited. Saturday will be the last day of the farmers summer school
