President Melkeljohn of Amherst was talking about the changed finan cial conditions that now prevail. "I heard the other day," he said, "of 1 harassed college professor who, In order to make ends meet, decided to take up manual labor. "So ho visited a large building op eration and said, nervously, to a red faced man with a diamond horseshoe In his necktie: '"I nm ahem an ox-collego pro fessor, and I would like to hn6w If you could take me on here as brick layer?" "The red-faced man gave a derisive nnorr. " 'Bricklayer? I guess not !' lie said We might start you In as an architect, though, and let you work your way up.' " What's the Use?

At a recent club entertainment an ad mission foe of 50 cents was charged. The entertainment, to some minds, was not worth the price and several women were not backward in saying so. "It made me mighty sore to bo charged CO cents for that performance," one objector said. "Oh, you got off easy," remarked an other. "I understand the chulrman of the affair wanted to charge $1 admls slon." "In that event I would have been Just twice as sore," the original Lady Peeve shot back. Christian Spirit.

M TERM ndic Great Many in Common Use in Agricultural Discussions Not Yet Recognized. , MOVEMEHT TO STANDARDIZE Department of Agriculture Plans to Secure Uniform National Usage of Terms Indispensable in Agricultural Work. , (Prepared by the United States Depart tnont of Agriculture) A great many tonus In common uso In agricultural discussions have never found a place in the dictionaries. So widely used and Important a term as "vitamin" has not yet found Its way Into the principal unabridged diction aries. For the public, therefore, there exists no approved spelling, no ap proved pronunciation, and no approv ed definition of the name of a thing that is vital to all living things. Terms Not Recognized. There are scores of terms. Indis pensable In agricultural wilting or speaking, thnt have not been recog nized by the lexicographers, and there are quite as many new usages of established words. "Blood line," n term commonly used in discussions of breeding, is not in the dictionaries. Nobody knows whether) It Is one word, two words, or a hyphenated word. "Overrun," n term widely used to ex press the thing that Is practically tho determining factor of profits in cream ery establishments, Is unknown to tho dictionaries "Standardbred," "trap nest," and any number of other com monly used terms, understood well enough by agriculturists, remain un defined for the accurate Information of the general public. To Standardize Terms. The United States department of agriculture, through the Joint efforts of the bureau of animal Industry mid the division of publications, lias begun a movement to standardize the uso of such terms, and about .10 of them aro on the griddle now. Three points of view are taken that of the Held man who knows the common usage of tho layman, that of the scientist who has the view point of tho specialist, mid the point of view that looks merely to the use of goon English. Each word Is submitted to the. various classes of persons Interested, together with tho proposed usage and the authority or lack of authority for It. From tho suggestions received In reply, the final ly approved usage will be determined. The first agricultural term to ho acted upon In the manner descrlht'd was "corn belt." That was consider ed more appropriate than corn-belt or cornbelt. Although tho principal purpose Is to establish approved usage for depart ment of agriculture publications, lists of terms ovolvod will, be furnished later to dictionary editors with tho view of obtaining uniform national usage. The co-operation of agricul tural experts and editors Is Invited. ALFALFA IS FERTILITY AID Where Crop Can Be Grown Success fully It Excels All Other Hay Crops In Yield. Thirty years ago alfalfa was quite a stranger in Wisconsin, hut Its Intro duction nnd dissemination have gone on at a rapid pace until about 00,000 acres of this great forage are now grown In the state. "Alfalfa growing Is popular In Wis consin," declares It. A. Mooro and I I Graber In a free bulletin Just Is sued by the experiment station at Madison. "Whero alfalfa can bo grown successfully. It excels all oth ei hay crops In yield to the ncre. feed ing value, drought resistance, soil en richment, and weed eradication." Trials conducted on the Wisconsin experiment station farm at Madison show that alfalfa gives yields practi cally double that of clover hay and tlree times as much as timothy. An aero of alfalfa produced In a single season three times as much protein as an acre of clover and nine times as much as an ncre of timothy. COVER BROKEN WINDOW PANE Glass Should Be Replaced Without Unnecessary Delay Muslin or Paper Is Good, When a window glass becomes broken In the poultry house It should be replaced or covered without a day's delay. Hy no means should the aper ture he left over nlgh't. It Ik hut the work of n few minutes to tack over the hole n thick piece of muslin or other white cloth. This will keep' out the wind and lot In some light. If muslin Is not handy, paper can be used. This Is, of course, only a makeshift until one can get the glass needed.
