many potato diseases, including
the battling mosaic no longer
need be feared.
Last season the college put on an
intensive campaign in Door coun-
ty, using its new method of poison
ing grasshoppers. The result was
the saving Of at least 100000 in a
single year.
Bulletins to Farmers.
In the last two years the college
has distributed to Wisconsin farm
ers over seven and a quarter mil
lion pounds Of salvaged war ex-
plosives at merely the cost of car
tridging and freight, thus making
a direct saving to the farmers of
the state Of $1,129,000. The Wis
consin college was the first to work
out method of saving adj utilizing
this material which was then being
dumped ito the Atlantic ocean to
get rid of it.
10 the farmers OF the state like
the service? Well, there are 10000
farmers on the regular bulletin list
Of the agricultural college and an
average of $4,000 inquiries is re-
ceived from farmers each year.
Note that at least seven Of the
above list apply to dairying. Sta
tistics for 1923 show that the in
come from milk constituted 55
per cent of the total income from
livestock and its products amount
to so per cent of the entire farm
income.
The university established the
first dairy school in the world forty
years ago. More than fifteen years
ago Wisconsin became the leading
dairy state of the Union, passing
it's great rival, New York state.
These two facts are not coincidents
one made the other.

handling to be shown the necessity
for certain pet measures Of the admin
istration.
In appearance and fittings the May
flower makes a gallant showing and,
better still, from the standpoint of
safety and comfort, is a seaworthy
craft that for her size is remarkably
comfortable even in rough weather.
OF $3.50 tons displacement, 273 feet
long and with a beam Of SO feet, she
carries a crew Of 165 men. Her total
valuation, including the rich appoint
ments on board, is approximately
81 100000. At present she is COM
manded by Capt. Adolphus Andrews,
u. s. N, who is also the senior naval
aide to the President.
While we may be accustomed to
think of the Mayfiower merely as a
necessary convenience for the Presi-
dent, that does not tell the entire story
of this vessel by any means. She has
varied background of naval service,
wartime, humanitarian and diplo-
matte.
The Mayflower was acquired largely
through the initiative of the then AS
sistant Secretary Of the Navy, Theo-
dore Roosevelt, in March, 1898. She
was purchased from the estate of Og-
den Goelet, who had obtained her from
a firm in Scotland in 1896. She was
designed by George l.. Watson, famous
British yacht designer. who brought

out the Thistle as a competitor for the
Americas S Cup in 1887. The Thistle
was defeated by the American yacht
Volunteer. The trim lines of the MAY
flower give her an appearance OF grace
and speed rarely found in vessels OF
her size. Her commodiousness does
not result in excessive bulk, and seer
at a distance the Mayfower might
we'll be mistaken for trim racer.

soon as possible because the King Of

An important exception is the yacht
Mayflower. She did not carry him
from Washington to the Massachu-
SettS coast, but during the vacation
period she will be anchored in Marble
head Harbor ready TO answer the
presidential call.
The trim flagship. with the cutter
bow and the long lines that carry ear
marks of fast cruising speed, should
prove a source of great enjoyment to

she carries her so years of service so

Scottish builders turned her out in
1896.
Memories of other days cluster about
the MaXflower. Retired rear admirals
associate her with the stirring times
of the Spanish American War and
diplomatic happenings of Importance
during the earlier days when as young
officers they commanded her But to
the general public she is always Wis
ioned as the presidential yacht AS
such she has figured in news stories
during the lifetimes of our last five
Presidents, sometimes in the routine
news and occasionally in more sensa-
tlOnal ways.
PROBABLY the most outstanding of
these incidents occurred during
the closing days of the Wilson regime.
After the physical breakdown of the
then Chief Executive following strenu-
Gus war times and the no less trying,
to him at least, period of the Ver-
sailles conference and his campaign
at home for the League Of Nations, it
was decided to install an elevator in
the Mayflower in order that he could
continue to make cruises aboard Po-
litical opponents seized upon the Incl
dent and d hostile press hailed it as
an example of wild extravaganza, a
veritable tempest in a teapot re-
sulting. The elevator was never used
| and soon after President Harding
came into Office it was removed
An interesting commentary on the
Vagaries of public opinion and the
ramifications of politics is presented
by this incident and one that followed
two or three years later. At this time
the Navy Department decided, with

amount far in excess of the expendi-
| lures made on the ship for Mr.. Will
