the committee In charge of tho show

tho Importance of collegiate training
In modern Btock raising and dairying.

Adds New Feature.
It is thought that the executive com
mittee of the show made a wise stop
in securing tho stock Judging contest.
It will be tho means of securing the
co-operation of a largo class who here
tofore nave been practically uninter
ested in tho Bhow. By enlisting the
support of the students through tho
contest tho show promises to be 4
still bigger event each year. This !b
the first year of the contest and
thirteen universities have entered
teams. It is expected tnat by next
year all Of the large universities and
agricultural colleges of the country
will send teams to Chicago to take
part in the show.

THEY NEED PLENTY OF MONEY.
Education of Freshman Calls for High
Class Instructors.
Of Interest in connection with tho
efforts of several universities to in
crease tho interest In problems of
undcrgraduato instruction is an artlcio
written for tho Now York Evening
Post by Professor Robert J. Aley of
tho University of Indiana. In the
courso of his article, Professor Aley
says:
"In tho treatment of frcBhmon the
upper school has much to learn from
those below it. When tho university
?ives tho same careful thought to the
care of its beginners as Is now given
by tho two schools below it to theirs,
the lot of tho frcBhman will be greatly
Improved, and tho whole student life
enriched.
"Money is an essential element In
the care of freshmen. If thoro Is not
money enough to provide for research
and teaching, there should bo no hesi
tancy In devoting the fund to tho lat
ter cauBO. Of courso, ample means
should bo secured for both purposes.
Money should bo spent freely for
teachers. In the equipment of a de
partment it is not enough to havo n
great scholar and a superior teacher
at tho head. All who glvo instruction
In tho department should be scholars
and inspiring teachers. Such men cost
money. Secondary schools already
recognize their value, and are picking
them up at salaries much larger than
tho universities have been accustomed
to pay. Tho pleasant fiction that thoro
Is greater honor in teaching in a col-
lego than in a high school Is rapidly
passing. It win soon bo impossible
to get college teachers of first-rato
ability, except upon the .payment of
first-rato salaries. Tho work," of a
department can not bo of superior
grade unless the teaching force has.
considerable permanency. Experlonce
glvos a point of vanta'go thai the now
man must gain at tho expense of tho
students. There must be something
moro tangible than "sentiment or loy
alty to produce this desirod perraan
once; Salaries muBt bo increased. Tho
distance between tho salary of tho
head' of tho department and that of
the teachers in tho department must
po lessoned. Flyo 'thousand dollars to
tho head and. o, more pittance to tho
teachers in tho department not only!
produces dissatisfaction, but also rc-1
