The cloth bound annual- $2.00 with an advancement payment of HO cents. The leather edition: $2 50 with an ad vancement payment of $1 00. Watch for the Cornhusker tables on the campus.

Neither company was in the pink of condition and the competition was not as fast as last year when the Pershings were the victors. Co-eds by crowds throngod the field and the grandstand was a gay sight with spring suits and gaily decked hats. From the farm there were a large number ofrooters fair and oth erwise and these cheered their com pany at every move. The Pershings were not without their supporters anM the field sounded like a football field at many stages of the affair. This is the second brigade parade since the .Spanish American war, the first being held last spring at the farm. (Sreat interest was expressed in the parade about the campus Monday. WILL TAKE SPRING FIELD TRIP. A party of six senios and graduate foresters expect to leave in a few days for Missouri where they will spend about three weeks study forest condi tions and methods of lumbering. One or two botanists may accompany them. They will be the guests of Capt. J. B. White, who extended the Conser vation CongresB in Lincoln recently, and will probably stay at one of his lumber camps in the Ozarks. Besides studying the conditions of the region, some of the men will collect data for the preparation of theses. This, trip will take the place of the usual bien nial trip to the Wlsconain woods which had to be given up this year because a large enough party Could not be made up. Prof. Morrill will leave Wednes day to look over the ground. i TODAY IS ARBOR DAY EX-GOVERNOR J. 8TERLING MOR TON'S IDEA COMMEMORATED BY TREE-LOVERS ALL OVER. FORESTRY CLUB CELEBRATES Annual Occasion 8ot by the Governor 8lnce 1872 Many Will Plant Trees In Appropriate Spots. Today has been set aside by tho governor as Arbor day, tho official troo planting day for the State of Nebras ka. Tho Idea of Arbor day originated with Hon. J. Sterling Morton of Ne braska City, upon whoso resolution tho Nebraska Stato Board of Agriculture set aBide April 10, 1872 as the first Arbor day. Since then tho custom has spread till now practically every state In the Union has an Arbor day. The day can not fall on the same date In all states because the differences In climate require an earlier date In tho south and a later one In tho north than we have hero in order to obtain the best results from troo planting. Since Mr. Morton's suggestion was made a number of other countries, In cluding Canada, England, Sweden, Spain, and Australia, have adopted tho Arbor day idea. The enstom is not a now one, for history Bhows that tree planting days or timoB were prescribed In tho olden times in other countries. Even In tho middle ages in partB of Germany treo planting was felt to bo necessary, and irf certain districts such customs sprang up as tho planting of a cer tain number of trees yearly by each man or the planting of a tree by each member of the family, tho replace ment of evory tree cut, and the plant ing of trees by each newly married couple. Tho ancient Aztecs are said to have planted a treo every time a child was' born, and the old Mexican Indians plant trees on certain days when the moon is full, and name them after their children. Not many students of the University can be expected to plant trees today. We can all remember, however, tho Arbor days of the past, which usually meant to us a half holiday, a treo planting by class or school, a patriotic address, and a "program" of recitations and songs. Especially in the south where Arbor day in a number of states falls on Washington's birthday, pa triotism is effectively combined with tho Arbor day ceremony, aid the edu-t National benefit, especially In regard to the beauty utility and growing value of tre.es and forests, to the great num bers bj young people who take part, cannot he over estimated.
