for the manouevers and fancy move
ments.
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday,
April 16, 17, and 18, have been select
ed as R. V. days and approved by the
faculty. Those students who go on
the several inspection trips will be
able to get back to College in time for
the festivities. Just how many visit
ing girls will be here is not definitely
known, but from all indications a
large number are coming to A. and M.
for these days.
Most of the visiting girls will be
taken care of in campus homes. The
Y. M. C. A. has accommodations for
some, and therefore it is not likely
that a dormitory will be utilized.
In the ancient civilization of Peru
streams were bridged and strong
stone roads were built. Shade trees
and sweet-scented herbs were set
along the borders of the road, and at
intervals, signs were erected for the
direction of the travelers. Inns were
built every twelve miles—a day’s
journey.—Colorado Highways.

Why Agricultural
College Graduates are on the
Purina Mills Pay Roll
fSpecial to the Class of 9 25)
"C'OR thirty years the Purina Mills have maintained
a department devoted to the development of the
most approved thoughts on animal nutrition and live
stock feeding.
It’s a big job—this business of helping the farmer lower
his cost of producing milk, eggs, pork and beef. It
means continual research work in the laboratories of
Purina Mills.
It means a staff of chemists to test and analize the
grains and other ingredients used in making balanced
rations. It means a staff of practical farmers to make
actual field and feed-lot comparisons between the effi
ciency and economy of various mixtures. It means a
staff of educated young men to go to the farmer’s own
barn—to help him balance his home-grown feeds with
proper concentrates—to help him cull his non-pro
ducers—to teach him to keep daily records of his milk
ana egg production — and to impress upon him the
importance of knowing his feed cost.
Whenever you gentlemen see a checkerboard bag of
Purina Chows, you can take a personal pride in it, for
the Purina Mills are relying on agricultural college
graduates like you upon their staff to maintain the
high standard of Purina Chows.
As long as there is a place for a ration which proves by
actual records that it lowers the farmer’s production
costs, there is a big place for Purina Chows. And as
long as there is that big place for Purina Chows, there
will be a place in Purina Mills for many of the men
who have learned the principles of scientific feeding.

A member of the Mt. Everest ex

According to Dr. Jacobson, who has
recently returned from Tibet, hus
bands in that country have to sleep
outside their huts eight months out of

country.
According to the dean of the U. N.
