Prof. M. H. Swenk, head of the
entomology department at the ag
ricultural college, believes In let
tin p- his students know when he is
in the classroom. Just the other
day a student dropped about a ion
of books on the floor as Professor
Swenk started to utter his first
word in lecture. Naturally the col
lision of the books with the floor
caused a loud bang. Thereupon
the professor said, "Well, now we
know you are here. There will be
no need for calling your name on
the roll."

gusted with the presentation of

DelDhin Nash, barb leader, was
left holding the sack. He arranged
for the presentation and then the
Mortar Board representatives fail

"Babe" Hedlund seems to have
trouble in deciding what the co
eds who are entered in the Shet
land pony showrnaship contest at
the junior Ak-Sar-Ben should
wear. He has been around the
campus getting suggestions from
prominent students but some of
them aren't so conventional.
Nebraska drouth stricken farm
ers are rapidly realizing that Prof.
H. J. Gramlich, head of the animal
husbandry department at the agri
cultural college, is doing every
thing in his power to help them.
He is a member of the chamber of
commerce drouth committee and
is working with Chancellor Bur
nett on me university iacuiiy
drouth aid campaign.
Someone at the college has dis

all. He should have a different

the bijreest ever. With Professor

"William Jennings Bryan as a Po
litical Leader."

ASKS EARLY ORDERS
Small Trees Available to
Farmers at Cost of
One Cent Each.
Rod cedar and Russian olive
seedling tree supplies for 1932
farm plantings are exhausted, but
plenty of other kinds of trees are
still available to farmers who want
them for windbreaks and woodlots,
Clayton W. Watkins, extension
forester of the University of Ne
braska extension service said Wed
nesday. This is the first year that red
cedars have t-en distributed. Only
a limited supply of them was made
available to farmers in central and
western Nebraska. Russian olive
has been one of the most popular
of the seedling tree varieties, Wat
kins said in explaining the short
age of these two kinds of trees.
Applications for Clarke-McNary
seedling trees will remain open un
til shipping time, Watkins prom
ised. He urged, however, tnat
farmers get their applications in
by March 20 in order to save last
minute confusion in shipping their
orders.
Following the special request to
the Nebraska national forest at
Halsey, 120,000 extra Scotch Pine
have been made available for
planting as Washington bicenten
nial trees this year, Watkins an
nounced. The Scotch Pines are
from 14 to 16 inches tall, four
years old, and the largest pines
that have been distributed as
Clarke-McNary seedlings in the
past five years. Farmers may get
them by applying on the usual
forms available in county agent's
offices and at the agricultural col
lege in Lincoln.
American and Chinese Elm,
Russian Mulberry, Cottonwood.
Green Ash. Catnips, Box Eldor.
Caragana. and Honey Locust are
the broadleaf varieties still avail
able. Scotch, Austrian, Jack, West
ern iellow or Bull Pine, are the
Evergreens available. All the trees
cost one cent apiece and must be
ordered in bundles of 100 each.
The money is used to pay for
counting, packing, and shipping
and all of the shipments are sent
out prepaid. This is the sixth year
that seedlings have been distrib
uted. Farmers of Nebraska or
dered over 900.000 of these last
year, Watkins says.

Oreodons varied from tiny Oreo
dons of the genus Grasscilis, which
were smaller In size than terrier
dogs, up to Oreodon Culbertsorjl,
which is commonest and best
known of all Oreodons. The larg
est of the race had skulls from one
foot to one and one-half feet la
length.
"Thus they were large animal,
and rival for honors the largest
animals known to the badlands.
The other contestant for size hon

means giant beast," says Profes

The Oreodons on exhibit were
found near Morrill, Morrill county,
Nebraska, by Mr. and Mrs. C. B.
