Address to the Graduating Gloss of 1851
by Rev. Rolph "A. Delemos

Lest l mQulSe TOO much IN
the habit of my calling, and
lapse too deeply into the mode
of sermonizing, I have prepar-
ed a manuscript from which I
hope to communicate to this
Graduating Class some impress
sive thoughts or significant in
spiration that they may Of
times remember when faced
with the trials of life, or are
called upon to put to the test
the knowledge acquired in the
classroom. Before going fur
ther however, l wish to thank
the Department of Education
through my good friend Mr..
Markoe, Principal Of the Sc
nior High School, for affording
me this privilege.
That you, my dear young
graduates, may better appre-
ciate the full meaning Of the
certificate of education which
tonight you will receive, and
that you may more earnestly
strive to fulfill the high expec-
tations of your teachers and
friends of this Commence
ment Night, you will be fire.
quently reminded throughout
this discourse of the words of
the Greatest Teacher who ever
lived, and this shall be the
theme,-"Unto whom much is
given, from him shall much be
required" And while congratu
lating the graduating men,
bers Of the Junior School, and
wishing them the attainment
of full scholastic honors, I
shall address my words princi-
pally to the Senior Gradual
Ing Class.
For you my dear young friends,
Commencement Night it is in
every sense of the word. You
finish tonight, in order to begin.
That may seem a strange paradox.
but it is nevertheless true. Some

A STUDY TO determine the opti-
mum number Of plants per acre and
the best width of row for maximum
yields of corn under irrigation was
made at Huntley branch station in
1850. Comparisons were made also
at varying degrees Of nitrogen fer
tility.
A commercial hybrid which is
adapted to the irrigated Yellowstone
area was planted in 80, So and 40
inch rows, and the stand was kept
at three different numbers of plants
per acre for each of these row widths
These were about $4,000, $4,000 and
81 900 plants per acre.
Three rates of nitrogen were APP
piled also to all combinations of row
width and stand. The nitrogen rates
were: No additional nitrogen. 800
pounds of 20 percent ammonium sui
phate and 600 pounds of 20 percent
ammonium sulphate per acre.
Stand Most Important
One years results indicate that
there is no difference in yield wheth-
er corn is planted in 80, SO or 4O-inch
rows, but stand seems to play an inn
portant role in determining yield.
A stand of $4,000 plants per acre pro-
duced an average yield of 1913 bush
els Of grain per acre, 10000 plants
per acre produced an average yield
of 87.4 bushels per acre, and $1,000
plants produced an average yield of
GIG bushels per acre.
/ The results indicate also that COM

Plots having no additional nitrogen
yielded tit bushels per acre at 15,-

a yield of 1874 bushels per acre at 4

On the other hand, plots having

in contrast to 1908 bushels per acre
at 21,OO0 plants per acre. The diff
ference in yield for the 300-pound
rate was almost as striking as it was
for the 6O0-pound rate.
In other words, if a high nitrogen

In these hot days when ever
birds are splashing in their baths
we all have a special feeling fol
water. Even the sound Of it is 9
panacea. 1t seems strange to look
back at the history of bathing
in the United States.
The following is a quotation
from the report of the Mayor S
Committee on Public Baths In
1897: In 1849 the Public Bathing
and Washing Association was
established in New York for the
purpose of supplying bathing IA
clities to the people of New York
City in regards to bathing and
washing.
The first public bath (1891)
was in Center Market place, New
York City. 1t is civic economy to
give a person an opportunity to
wash; it is also morally better
to give man an opportunity to
wash the outside with water than
the inside with whisky. Every
person who bathes lessons the
demands on the health depart
ment. If people could be clean
persons they would insist on
cleanliness in their homes"
You may remember that in 1778
Benjamin Franklin imported a
bathtub from France. This caused
quite a curious stir among his
acquaintances but made little dent
on the social ostracism of soap
and water. Ben was a rugged soul
anyway. 1t was said that he liked
cold weather so well that even
In the most severe temperatures
he slept with one toe sticking out
from under the cover.
Forty years later there was a
White House scandal when Presi-
dent James Morse said, simply,
that he was going to take a bath
and with chin high and deter
mined, went into another room
and took one in the tub he had
bought for $40. His political ad-
visers screamed to high heaven
but the President was firm.
1t is rumored that later on
Andrew Jackson had the tub
thrown out. AS late as 1873 the
commissioner Of public health
buildings called notice to the in
sanitary condition Of the Presi-
dents home. and mentioned its
lack Of bathrooms.

must balance your weight very
neatly without letting any stiff

your fists on your hips.
