have taken the full amount awarded
them and are in the market for
more. Inroads nave already been
made on the allotment of 1920, 900
pounds made to Minnesota July L.
AS the condition was made that all
the pyrotol must be distributed by
March 81, a second allotment is
deemed necessary. In the meantime
farmers of every county have a
chance to get share of this rapidly

PRESIDENT WANTS DADS"
TO VISIT UNIVERSITY

Minnesota fathers, by proper
understanding of the conditions
which surround sons and daughters,
can help immensely to make the
years at college more truly signifi-
cant. So. says President Coffman
of the University of Minnesota in
the letter in which the father of
every student has been invited to
be the guest of the university on
Dads Day." October 10Th. Every
invitation includes a special blank
emitting dad" to priority on two
tickets in the special Dads section
at the Minnesota-WiScorsin football
game, the big home game of the
year.
The fathers will be asked to at
tend dinner at 6:15 p. m. in the
Minnesota Union at which repre-
sentatives of the university will
tell them what is being done for
their children. One of the fathers
will respond telling what he thinks
of the University of Minnesota. Cof-
fee and doughnuts will be served
just after the game TO arm up the
fathers who have been sitting in
the stands.
''The University of Minnesota is
making preparations for celebrat-
ing it's fourth annual lads Day."
says the presidents invitation. "We
cordially invite the father of every
University of Minnesota student to
spend the day on the campus getting
acquainted both with the university
and with the life his son or daugh-
ter is leading while at the univer-
sity.
Fathers, by a proper understand
ing of the conditions which sur
round sons and daughters can help
immensely to make the years at col
lege more truly significant. The
university is an agency of the state
and does not belong to the regent
