We have always heard that prairie chickens were of great value to any farming community as destroyers of in sects and vermin and we would be glad, and all lovers of birds would be glad to see them protected with a protection that waB real at all seasons. It is no protection if the farmers do carefully guard the chickens during the close season and then when the season opens bands of. sportsmen from Sioux:' City or other cities are allowed to hunt in our fields as we know that they will follow a covey of chickens until the last bird is killed. Let the farmers unite to give the prairie chicken a protection that shall protect: let th6m prohibit all bunting in their fields except by per mission. The .local sportsmen would be able to hunt by invitation of their farmer friends and being known would not be the source of annoyance the un-, known sportsman often is. At- the re cent session of the Iowa legislature a law was passed confining hunters to the highway so we may expect to see' many Iowa sportsmen in Dakota this year. Mfc. Vernon.

Miss Noble has been connected with the University since the spring of 1889, since which time she has labored in cessantly and unceasingly for the good of the institution and that her work has contributed in no small measure to the' success of the University, is a good en dorsement of ber abilities as an instruc tor.
