AG C0WbTll AS 1, i uinciais Declare Event Is Most Successful Ever Held on Campus. Nebraska's twenty-second annual Livestock Feeders day held at Ag college Friday attracted more than 1,400 men and women from throughout the state. According to officials of the affair it was one of the most successful sessions of the group ever held on the campus. James E. Poole, noted market prophet and contributor, was the chief speaker for the closing after noon program. He termed the hog market as "lousy", said the sheep market would take care of itself, and spoke optimistically of the cat tle market. He stated that the best cattle on the Chicago market were from the Cornhusker state. The morning program included speeches by Wm. J. Loeffel; W. W. Derrick; M. A. Alexander, R. L. Kahff, York; Paul Cook, agncu a I tural agent, Aurora; Havolka porlcrp- Psna L, Rnrr, Guide Rock, Ray R. Thalman. Burr Gives Welcome. Dean V. W.

Results of experiments show that i atlas yields were 163 percent high- u ;i II tliough atlas has some noticeable disadvantages, the experiments brought out that atlas produced a greater amount of gain per acre altho a smaller amount per ton; since the yield was so much higher per acre it was probably much cheaper in the long run. "You landscape you front yard for other people, and your back yard for yourself," Prof. C. A. Wiggans told more than 250 farm women in the morning session. He also pointed out that a backyard was an outdoor room and should be planned as such. Prof. M. H.

The Swiss chronicle. O In the fifth century the little Swiss village determined to have an oak grove in the public square, A day was set and the entire com munity journeyed to the woods. There they dug up oak saplings and brought them to the village square, where they were planted. All children who took part received a wheaten roll as a reward. The grown up people had a feast and frolic. For many years the tree planting ceremony took place with a celebration always following the observance. Morton Arbor Day Founder, In the United States Arbor Day was first observed in "treeless Ne braska" by the Hon. J. Sterling Morton, then a member of the state board of agriculture, and later United States secretary of agriculture. At the meeting of the state board of agriculture for Ne braska held at Lincoln, Jan. 4. 1S72, he introduced a resolution "that Wednesday, the 10th day of April, 1872, he especially set apart and consecrated to tree planting PROFESSORS TO PLAY BIZ AD DAY BALL GAME Faculty, Student Diamond Mix Features College Picnic Program. Professors from the College of Business Administration and stu dent memners of Alpha Kappa Psi, commercial fraternity, will be on opposing sides the afternoon of Friday, May 4 in a baseball game at the Bizad Day picnic. Accord ing to members of the Bizad ex- ecutive council, sponsors of the day. the game will besrin immedi ately after a noon picnic lunch at Antelope Park. Albert Ross, a member of Delta Sigma Pi, another commercial or ganization, said yesterday that all students in the college of business administration are urged to plan attendance at the annual event. The program begins with the noon picnic lunch, reaches its climax with the ball game and terminates with a dance that afternoon in An telope Dance pavillion. Although members of the tw two j ani tuall trnmtr ImTtr Tior-ytrt-tH'CTi nounced, sponsors declare that the affair promises to hold the spot light of the day's program. Ac cording to Kd Huddleston, in charge of arrangements for the dance Leo Beck and his orchestra will play for two hours between 3:30 and 5:30 in the afternoon. He anticipates a large crowd, since afternoon dances are somewhat of a novelty at Nebraska. Nebraska One of 63 Qualified to Grant Dr. Degree Nebraska is one of the sixty-three universities and other in stitutions of higher learning in the United States that are qualified to prepare candidates for the doc tor's degree, according to a report made public by the American Council of Education. It is the only school in the state so qualified, according to the report. The report of the council was based on the first nationwide sur vey ever made of the seventy-seven graduate schools known to be of fering work for the doctor's de cree The number of colleges and universities offering some college work, including undergraduate, is about ten times that of the gradu ate schools, according to university officials. Nebraska was included in the designated group as being one of the thirty approved for botany, one of thirty-seven for chemistry, one of thirty qualified to give the doctor's degree in education, one of twentv-seven in English, one of nineteen qualified to teach plant pathologv, and one of the twenty one qualified to confer the ad vanced degree for work in plant phvsiology.

The resolution was adopted and wide publicity was given to the plan. Over a million trees were planted on that first Arbor Day. Governor Furnas of Nebraska, in 1874, by public, proclamation get aside April 3rd, as Arbor Day. In 1885 the state legislature passed an act designing the birthday of Mr. Morton, April 22, as the date of Arbor Day and making it a legal holiday. Since that date fall on Sunday this year, observ ance is postponed a day. Nearly a billion trees have been planted in the state, since the plan was first adopted. It Is estimated that more than 700,000 acres have been planted in Nebraska. The state is so much identified with tree raising that on April 4, 1905, the legislature passed a reso lution that the state be popularly known as "The Planter's State." More than half of the states have enacted a law for the observ ance of Arbor Day. In others it's held by proclamation of the gov ernor. In Nebraska and Rhode Island the day has been made a public holiday, PEACE LEADER BOOKED Harris Discusses Japanese Situation on First Ap pearance Here.

Plant Trees Only II here Conditions Favorable Weaver That tree planting should only be encouraged where climatic conditions make it favorable is the opinion of Professor J. E. Weaver of the Botany department in re gard to the observance of Arbor Dav in Nebraska. "The expectation of growing a tree for every stump is beyond a possibility in a piaiiie state like Nebraska," stated Mr. Weaver. In the opinion of Professor Weaver, the ideal place to grow trees would be in parks where they , are protected by each other, for j the tree is an organism that asso- ! ciates with others of its kind. He i believes that grasses that grow io , hnildiner exhibit a greater magnificence than trees. "A tree surrounded by hot dry winds works against the laws of nature," he said. Professor Weaver thinks it an error to grow a grove out of a cattle country. "That it's a hard struggle for a tree to obtain suffi cient water is illustrated by a burr oak tree," he stated. "A fully grown tree thirty to thirty-five feet tall sends roots out in all di rections from the base of the trunk mid extends fifteen feet deep in order to get enough water. Even saplings of elm, cottonwood, ash, and hickory have roots ten to fif teen feet deep." 'Use Initiative, Don't Alibi, Tank Those Who Do Not Workf Advice of Professor II. J.

Final Case of Law Clubs Put OffTill Fall Trying of the final case between winners o Tuesday evening's argu ments held by first year law stu dent clubs has been postponed until next fall because of lack of time, according to Dean Foster of the law college. Other cases were tried before prominent Lincoln judges and lawyers, and law pro fessors. One case tried in the courts is a fictitious one involving a promise , of Smith to build a house in return for $15,000 from Jones on comple I tion of the building. Before work was started labor and .materials had advanced so that Smith wrote Jones he did not feel able to pro ceed. Jones answered that it was Smith's "hard luck," but if the house were completed Jones would give Mrs. Smith a Buick sedan. Jones refused to deliver the car after the house was built, and Mrs. Smith sued for it. Representing the Webster club. J. R. Wolf of Omaha and H. G. Hamilton of Geneva were awarded the decision in their case, being op posed by W. E. Nolte of Hiawatha, Kans.. a'nd H. H. Foster, jr., of Lin- coln student lawyers for the Blarkstone club. Judges over this contest were Judge J. L. Polk, I Robert Devoe, and Prof. Charles Nutting. The student attorneys of the Jef freys club, M. K. Nelson of Lincoln and H. L. West of Syracuse, won their case over J. C. Landis of Seward and P. B. Peterson of Lin coln, representing the Cardoza club. On the bench for this trial were Judge E. B. Perry, B. K. Gradwohl, and Prof. M. H. Merrill. Dean Foster started the club courts this year in an effort to find "an outlet in the first year for the young lawyers' competitive spirit." He believes such arguments before able judges will give them rtality in their work. First year students were invited to join the clubs, and each club chose its own two men to represent it promises to be as entertaining or more so man nis iasi unc, A backyard garden and a mod ern poultry plant and house to scale, art exhibits, including a camera contest, an artificial aquar ium, and a nursery school, are just a few of the exhibits which will be found from May 5 to 8 at the annual fair to be held on the agricultural campus.
