Among the points in favor of it are: Tho fall furnishes a tlmo when deep plowing may bo done early enough to allow the toll to become compacted by planting time, . When plowing Is done in tho fall, a longer tlmo is afforded for tin refuse of tho preceding crop to rot. Late fall plowing helps to destroy the small brown ant which Is a protect or of the root plant louse. Time Is less pressing In tho fall than oftentimes in the spring. Tho structure of clay and other stiff soils is improved by weathering. Fall plowing should be left rough In order that It may collect moisture and hinder blowing.

To the Voters of the State Having already called your attention tg the needs of the Dairy Department aud of tho Chemical Department, I trust that you will now bear with mo while I explain to you the urgont needs of another branch of tho Uni versity's work. As I have explained before my purpose In dolngsthi8 Is to urge upon the voters the need of set tling tho location problem at tho com- lug election. Tho instances that I cite are not more iinnoituiit than many othcis, only a fow of which can be speclllcally to your attention. I have attended tills fall tho dedica tion of splendid new high school build' lugs at Fremont and Wahoo, They are highly creditable to the communi ties tli no have erected them. Good sehool buildings, however, nic not morn Important than good teachers. There should bo no controversy be tween the two Ideas, It Is not a (pies tlon of teachers veisus buildings, but a question of teachers and buildings. Many communities in Nebraska are getting tho buildings. Many com munities iu Nebraska already have some very strong tenc!ieiri, but how can the general etliciency of the teach ing force of the state be Increased 1 The tjlnlversity of Nebraska Includos by 8ta,ty3 law the Teaohers' College. This College and all tho Normals of the state cannot supply us many effi cient teachers as the state .'needs There Is a possilityof rivalry us lo which of the stale institutions shall have a dominant iuiluuuce lu certain corners of tho educational field, but there Is no possibility that their united effort 'will train moro tcacheiB than i the state needs. In order that your Teachers' Collet o aud your Graduate School of Educa tion lrifiy have adequate facilities for doing their work, the University must have as soon as possible an Education Building. The educational forces ure now scattered about the campus. The Temple High School, which is doing admlrublo work both iu training pupils and in serving as a practice aud observation school, is housed in base ment rooms. Originally these rooms were not even entirely excavated, but as the basement is fairly high, they answer as a temporal y expediency. But the question Is, does the state want its Teuchers1 College practice and observation school to bo permanently underground. The answer must be an emphatic no. As a statu we are not so hard up us that. Wo want an ade quate education building, such us other institutions enjoy, and we wuut it to house the practice school lu such a way that the school will be physl cully a model to all superintendents and principals who care to inspect it. It is u matter of state' wido educational interest. Further it should uot be overlooked thut the rooms vacated by the Temple High School aro urgently needed for extending the work of the cafeteria, for Increasing the facilities of the Y. M and Y. W. 0. A., nnd for such other stfldent organizations as were in tho minds of tho donors who gave the money for this splendid Temple Building. This building, which cost over $100,000 and unlike some other University buildings, is to. duy worth more than it cost, was never intended for school purposes. It Is almost a misuse of tho gift to use It as such. If you decide to extend the city campus, the passing of tho high school out of the Temple will work perman ently to tho great advantage of the student body of tho university, If you decide by your votes to remove the University to tho Farm, a now education building can soon bu built there, leaving the entire Temple Build ing to be used effectively for student wolfure during the truu<iou period, which all persons who havo made u careful study of the situation realize must he rather long. f Yours very truly, S.
