 or Observing It
 New Haven, Feb. 2S.-Tho Yale News today admonished the under. graduate body to observe scrupu- lously the honor system in examina- tons. It said that there was "a de- cidedly unpleasant sensation" to read of the suspension for thirty days and cancellation of the terms cuts of junior in college for vio- lation of the honor system.
 It adds: "But the end Is not yet come and tho strong arm methods will not avail in the long run unless the conscience of the university Is thoroughly aroused. Tho intrinsic meanness of this vice of cribbing must be made 80 plain to each hon orable man, that he will gladly take steps to see that such men as are without honor either conform to the Yale system or else pursue their further search for knowledge" In friendlier institutions.

No Easy Task

It was no easy task to hold 'o- gether the new republic because of the conditions that existed when it was born. And even after 1t was formed and functioning the new government of the people was con- fronted with one danger after an other. Scarcity of foood, clothing and fuel, riots in various parts of the country, frequent agitaticns and movements designed to overthrow the republic and reestablish the monarchy and finally the crash of the country's financial and monetary systems. which became the joke Of the business world and which caused it's paper money to depreciate until it's money value was less than the paper and ink Of which it was made. President Ebert, however, weathered one storm after another and finally saw the dawn of a new day for Germany, which experts in government agreed was brought about by the Dawes separations plah.

Ekern Stumps

Racine, Wis.-Attorney General
Herman L. Ekern Sunday took the
stump in the interests of Robert M.
La Follettes campaign in the cleo
ton to fill the seat in the United
States senate made vacant by the
death of his father.
The Attorney General addressed
the Caledonia Farmers Picnic here
saying that for monts the country
has been flooded with propagan-
da to create the impression that a
real program of economy is being
introduced at Washington.
"The exact contrary is the case"
he said.
"The staggering advances to for
eign governments have ceased; the
enormous payments to railroads
have been made; war contracts
claims have been paid to the a.
mount of hundreds of millions Of
dollars; soldiers and sailors al
lowances have been met.
Naturally the expenditures of
the government have decreased.
These decreases, however, are not
due to any economy. In the five
year period since the war came to
an end, expenditures in the Federal
government for civil purposes
have mounted.
"Of course War department ex-
penditures have decreased. At
the height of the war in 1919, the
war department spent $9,2S5,OO0,-
600. This was reduced to $324,OO0-
900 in 1924.
"These enormous expenditures OF
the War department and in the
Navy department in 1924 are peace
time expenditures in preparation
for future wars. The thing for
this government to do is to get
back to a peace time basis with re-
gard to it's expenditures for future
wars and to stop expanding the
peoples money for obsolete battle
ships which benefit no one but the

Deauville Casino
ShOrtens Dancing
To Aid Gambling
BY MINoTT SAUNDERS

ny MINI OAONOGnO
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Deauville-Althoug the season
is now in full swing, with hotels
and villas crowded, the annual
orgy of heavy. gambling has been
slow in getting underway. The
stage directors are worried, and
taking subtle steps to liven things
up around the tables.
For all the worlds a stage, and
men and women merely players,
even at this gay resort where the
men and women are among the
chosen from the four corners of
the world who possess wealth, or
social position, or something that
admits them to the inner shrine OF
fashions fanfares. Titles and
jewels and checkbooks notwith-
standing, the players strut as they
are told.
The gaming rooms proper open
Lat midnight, and here the elite
dine late. The Casino restaurant
is always gay, with much fancy
food and mermerizing music by an
American Jazz band. The popu-
larity of the restaurant, with its
alluring dancing, has been such
that the tables in the other wing
have often been neglected.
Dancing Cut Short
But a mysterious system has
been detected for the shifting of
the scenes. Suddenly the walters
sped up remarkably and serve
patrons with great gusto, bringing
coffee before the sweet is tasted,
and the bill before the liquors are
raised. simultaneously the or
chestra men feel the need of a
breath of air and a smoke, and SO
the dancing lags. Naturally there
is nothing to do but stroll into the
Casino and have a fling.
Even the post midnight supper
tseance has at times been curtail-
ed for the benefit of the tables
with the result that players once
bitten, much shy, buy more chips
and stay on to retrieve their
losses. This system has greatly
bucked up the playing.

Seven Reasons Why
WiscOnsin's Alfalfa
Acreage Gains

Wisconsin alfalfa acreage this
year is the greatest in the history
Of the state, according to the Blue
Valley Creamery Institute. For
the 265,OOo acres in alfalfa last
fall, the year before nlyboasted
$4,000 acres. Five years ago the
total alfalfa acreage in the state
was but 10000 acres.
The continuous, constant gain
being made by alfalfa with each
passing year is indicative of the
growing place which this eXtraor-
binary forage crop has made for
itself in the past quarter of a cent
ury, according to the Institute.
The manifold uses of this plant are
being discovered by an increasing
number of farmers, and dairymen,
hog growers, beef cattle feeders,
sheep breeders, horsemen and
poultry men alike are singing its
economical and nutritional praises.
The seven qualities possessed by
this greatest money making hay
plant in livestockdom have been
enumerated for the Radio Farm
School of the Blue Valley Cream
cry Institute by Prof. John NJ
Evvad of Iowa State College as
follows:
First. Alfalfa is palatable. An
imaIs of all ages and sizes like it.
Second. Alfalfa yields heavily
of digeshble dry matter high in pre-
teins, vitamins and minerals need
ed to balance farm rations.
Third. Alfalfa is of succulent
nature. 1t helps in the develop
ment of the animal, and is a great
promoter of laxativeness.
Fourth. Alfalfa comes early and
stays late. 1t remains green dur
ing the hot, dry summer.
Fifth. Alfalfa endures trampins
and grazing well, particularly
when the season is dry and the
soil not too soft.
Sixth. Alfalfa is a semi-perms
nent or permanent crop. If the

1926 More Miles Of
u. S. Hard Roads
For Wisconsin

Wisconsin farmers and tourists
now enjoy 1875 miles more of the
; Federal-aid highways than they did
a year ago, according to the Sears
Roebuck Agricultural Foundation.
This mileage, completed in the
year ending June 30, cost total
of $3,O53,237 of which the federal
government furnished $1,478,6O7.
Highway construction under this
plan now under way in the state
totals $50 miles, while the total
mileage completed previous to last
year was 1925 miles.
This additional mileage, while a
convenience to the tourist in the
state, is a godsend to the farmer,
according to the Foundation. 1t
/ is estimated that each and every
farmer in this section of the coun-
try averages 80 tons of farm pro-
ducts hauled to market and tons
of feed, fuel, fertilizer, machinery,
supplies, ETC., from town. When
good roads make trucks feasible
this is not very burdensome, but
! it represents good many hours
labor where horses and poor roads
must be used. And SO while the
tourist finds the inter-city roads
mighty comfortable, to the farmer
a good serviceable road from his
farm to the nearest market is a
downright necessity.
Take Advantage
The expansion of hard road sys-
TENS both in this and other states
in recent years has given the far
mer an added inducement for go
ing into business for himself, the
Foundation states. That he has
not been slow to take advantage of
the opportunity is testified in the
increasing number of roadside
markets on me more frequented
highways. Figures show that each
of these markets takes in fifteen
to thirty dollars up to several hun
dred dollars a day, varying with
the locality, the preponderance OF
buyers being tourists driving thru
the vicinity. Some of these are
nothing more than stands OF sim
pie board construction while the
more pretentious are housed in
buildings which may be locked af-
ter the days or the seasons bust
ness. The most successful of the
markets are so placed as to have
convenient parking facilities where
prospective buyers may examine
the articles of food, which should
be of good quality yet moderately
priced and attractively displayed.

Experience Now
Farm Factor
(By United Press)
BY d. d. MEREDITH

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Minneapolis. - The day of ro-
nance when the tenderfoot could
venture westward to carve new
family fortune from unsettled lands
is gone.
Brush knives and grub hoes are
a thing of the past The settler
who made the great west is now no
more.
Agricultural conditions today for
bid the shoe clerk and underpaid
school teachers from the cities try
ing to exc out Of existence from a
late of underbrush claimed from
government lands. Failure of the
poor inexperienced settler have
proven that farming is now a pro-
fession and crop production a
science.
inexperienced Farming
Curtis L. Mosher, governor of the
ninth district Federal Reserve bank
today told the United Press the
greatest crime ever committed a.
gainst agriculture was the settle
ment Of practically worthless gov
eminent lands by BARRIERS, music
ians, wrestlers, sailors, paper hang
ers and others who did not know
the first principles of agriculture.
"In an area of Montana where
farm failures were greatest, it was
found that 81 percent of those who
went on the land were without pre-
vious farming experience and 80
percent had no capital" he said.
among them we're men from GO oc-
equations other than farming.
"From that same area last year
came a shipment of wheat to Min
neapolis which contained the high
est percentage of protein on rec
ord. This wheat brought a pre-
MUM of 62 vents a bushel on the
Minneapolis market. 1t was
grown by an experienced farmer.
He got 1920 a bushel net for his
wheat.
"There is just as much folly in
sending an inexperienced man to
the farm as there is in putting an
inexperienced man on die-cutting
machine. Either will fail.
Still Land To Be Cleared
"Of course there is still great
deal of land to be cleared in the
northwest. There must always be
that development But conditions
have changed.
81 know of no section of the I'm
tied States today where good agri-
cultural land is available to the ex-
perienced and competent farmer on
a better basis than in Minnesota,
the Dakotas and the agricultural
section of Montana"
The great trouble today is that
there are not enough experienced
farmers, Mosher said. Agricultural
schools and colleges are turning out
highly trained agrarians, but only
a small percentage of these educat-
ed farmers ever till the soil.
Most Of them become county a.
gents, experts of some kind, or ag-
riCultural adviser. Mosher him
self is one, and his most valued as
sistant is another.
