chon, wherein many labor and time
saving methods for both the city and
farm hoiisewifo will be demonstrated.

Probably the most Interesting of

of Nebraska, made from tho soil of
different sectlc-ns, has been prepared
to show Just which soil is especially
adapted -for farming and' what sec
tions need'special attention. The ex
perience of-. the, university school is
that gradually land is becoming ex
hausted and" the farmer must now be
educated to moro scientific farming.
The. attention of crops will be ex
plained and- how the soil should he
treated "to -prevent " Its decay.'"- Tho
seases of other crops, together with
specimens of the crops affected. Large
drawings of different plants and crops
will complete the botany exhibit.
' With hard work by tho students In
the mechanical department the ex
hibit will bo complete. Those In
charge are working hard to make it
a pronounced success.
A handsome monument has been
erected in honor of Col. John 'M.

is a massive affair with a column in
the center and a cannon surmounting
it. An inscription gives his record,
rank and date and manner of death.
Many Nebraska university students

away cleanly and had run some fif
