Lincoln, July 8. The Wayne nor
mal school, purchased by the state,
will be opened Sept. 19. This is made

legal to use the remainder of the $90,
000' appropriated for the purchase of
the school, to maintain it.
State Auditor Barton and Treasurer
Brian both have approved the da-,
cislon, bo there will be no hitch. There
will be $20,000 for the maintenance
of the school, which Is sufficient, Sec
retary Ludden of the normal board
said, to keep it aolng until the legis
lature makes an appropriation for Its
maintenance.
The board will meet July 27 at Peru

' Three Eggs Are Productive.
Corning, la., July 8. Considerable
interest is manifested in the experi
ment of raising ringtail pheasants by
placlug eggs under domestic fowls
early in the summer. Game Warden
Hilliard secured ten settings of the
birds' eggs. These were distributed
to Mart Miller, Marlon Gladstone D.
H. MeyerhofT. Ralph Gibson. Walter
Newcomb, C. C. Norton, Charles
Thomas, S. M. Ritchie. Bert Beutley
and Charles Harper. These men re
port that about seventy-three birds
were hatched. Since then a few of
them have been lost, but most of them
are doing nicely. As the fowls In
crease rapidly, it Is thought If these
birds can all be preserved there will
soon be a large number of them in
Adams county.
