PREPARES FOR WAR TO INSURE PEACE
Prof. Schoenfeld Lectures in Chapel on German Armament.
That Germany intends to have peace by preparing for war is the opinion of Hermann Schoenfeld, professor of German at George Washington University and Ottoman consul-general at Washington, who lectured in chapel Friday.
"With England, France, and Russia surrounding Germany it is obvious that extensive protective measures must be adopted," he said. "Of course," Professor Schoenfeld added, "the drain on the country is great, but the German leaders feel that any expenditure for the security of the Empire is small when compared to defeat in war. Besides, the army and navy are considered great national training schools, and although the withdrawal of thousands of young men from productive employment is a serious loss for the time being, the physical and mental training, the schooling in self-denial, obedience, and general efficiency compensates the temporary loss.
Dean Walker presided at the chapel. He announced that only the students in the National Guard who are going to Fort Riley will be exempt from the final examinations, and they will be handled separately. The chapel chorus sang Beethoven's "The Heavens Resounding."
K. U. WAGES WAR ON GRASSHOPPERS
Under the direction of the State Entomologist, Prof. S. J. Hunter of the University of Kansas, a persistent war is being waged upon grass-hoppers which is bringing results. Four men from the University are out in western Kansas organizing the infested district and directing the extermination of the pest. These are H. B. Hungerford, P. W. Claussen, W. B. Wilson, and A. T. Mallory.
For expediency in fighting the insects the State Entomological Commission has assigned the southern half of the state to the University entomologist at Lawrence and the northern half to the Agricultural College at Manhattan. Experts from both institutions are in the field cooperating with the farmers and giving them the benefits of all the known scientific data gained from a seventeen year study of the grasshober problem in Kansas.
Professor Hunter this morping gave out the following statement, based upon his personal investigation of the situation in the southwestern part of the state:
"Disk the alfalfa early in the spring as soon as the frost leaves the ground, and cross harrow it. This throws out the eggs of grass-hoppers to be destroyed by the weather and eaten by birds.
"Where the grassnoppers are not yet winged they can be killed by the use of the hopper dozer which may be made as follows:
"Every female grasshopper killed now means 100 grasshoppers less next year.
Construct two pans of galvanized iron, each being 8 ft. long, 2 ft. wide, 4 in deep in front and 8 in deep in back. These pans are laid upon lx4 boards previously nailed to runners. The height of the runners, depends upon the height of the crop to be protected.
"The grasshoppers which are doing the injury do not migrate. They are raised upon the farm where found.
"When the machine is ready for use place two buckets of water and half a gallon of coal oil in water and then drive back and forth across the end of the field where the grass-hoppers are.
"At this season of the year the poison bran mash should be used, which is made up of 2½ pounds of Paris Green, 50 pounds bran, 2 quarts water, 5 lemons, 5 gallons water. Mix this, make into small balls and scatter broadcast through the field.
"The only drawback to the use of the poison is the possibility that stock will get to it, and of course care must be exercised. Generally the poison can be applied where there is no danger at all to the stock."
TEACHING TEACHERS TO TEACH BACKWARD BOYS
practice when working with the boys and girls themselves. In Dr. Trettien's class are one grandmother and six mothers, who, as well as the teachers, have become interested in this study.
(Continued from page 1.)
"The best thing about this work," said Miss Wagoon, who is deeply interested in the deficient child, "is that it is not the deficient child alone, whom we are able to help, but the normal child also. It would be pitiful if all this led us no farther than the abnormal child, for the most of these are generally hopeless, and can be directed only along useful lines. These methods of individual attention are fast leading to the personal study of the normal child. The teachers who are taking this course do not expect to deal with deficient children alone, but are studying so that they may meet the needs of all children."
