C. A. SCOTT GETS PLACE AT AMES
ew Forester at Iowa State College
Brought from Nebraska.
AMES, la.. Jan. 16. (Special. )-At a re
cent meeting of the Board of Trustees of
the Iowa State college C. A. Scott of the
United States forest service was elected to
the chair of forestry t( fill the vacancy
caused by tho resignation of Prof. H. V.
Baker, who accepted a more lucrative posi
tion at the Pennsylvania State college.
Mr. Scott Is a graduate of the Kansas
State Agricultural college and a student
of the Yale college of forestry'. Mr. Scott
has been continuously In the employment
of the forest service since graduation and
during this period of seven years has
gradually advanced through all stages of
the work, from that of student assistant
to forest supervisor, which position he
resigned to accept the chair of forestry
at the Iowa State college.
His work has been largely confined to
the middle west and the Rockv mountain
states, hence he has the advantage of
being familiar wtlh the forestry condi
tions of the upper Mississippi valley. Since
Its origin he has had charge of tho exten
sive forest nurseries and plantings of the
Dismal river national forest. During the
last three yeara he has given a special
course of lectures before the University of
Nebraska forestry students and during the
winters has also rendered assistance as a
lecturer at the farmers' Institutes of Ne
braska. In 1906 he was elected to member
ship in the 8ociety of American Foresters,
a professional organization, which is limited
'.n Its membership. His training, experience,
strength of character and personality make
him one of the best men available for the
position to which he haa been elected at
the Iowa State college.

MARSHALLTOWN, la., Jan. 16 -(Spe
cial.) Marshalltown, through Its city coun
cil, this afternoon went on record as being
one of the first Iowa cities to put Into
operation a meat inspection ordinance. The
ordinance, which becomes operative at
once, regulates. the slaughter of all animals
used for meat In the city, and It provides
for the Inspection of the places in which
they are slaughtered. It also provides that
all meat of any kind sold In the city must
bear the stamp of the city inspector before
It can be marketed. This section of the
ordinance does not apply to meats which
have the government Inspection stamp on
them. The penalty for disregarding the
ordinance is a fine of a minimum of o0,
and not more than $300. Retail meat deal
ers have co-operated with the council In
securing the passage of the ordinance, as
they say it will prove a protective meas
ure to their business.
