PULLMAN EXCURSIONISTS
VISIT LAKE (HATiuI.W
Flit) Pnllmnnltfts Take Advantage
of Excursion to Idaho Lake
Resort
Fifty Pullmanltes last Sunday
took advantage of the <> sv. H. & v
excursion to Lake Chatcolet. A
goodly percentage of the local con
tingent after reaching Chatcolel
made the trip up the St. Joe river by
steamer, although several remained
at the lake and spent the day fish
ing. boating and bathing. The Pull
man Citizens hand furnished music
for the occasion and conducted a
dame in the Chatcolet pavilion from
noon until 8 o'clock, cleaning up
enough money to pay the expenses
of the members of the band. Those
of the local pleasure seekers who
spent the day fishing report perch
in profusion, although bass and
trout were a minus quantity,
The return trip was one of the
big events of the da). the excursion
ists being given the longest lit not
the farthest) ride for the money
they had ever had. The train was
scheduled to reach Pullman at 10:30
but the weary excursionists could
have been seen wending their ways
homeward from the station at about
2:30 Monday morning. The train
left Chatcolet on scheduled time, but
the train crew overlooked the rail
road requirement that all trains take
on passengers at the regular sta
tions, and pulled out of Chatcolel
without barking down to the station,
the big majority of the excursionists
having boarded the train on the
sidetrack above the station. At
Plummer the crew was handed a
telegram which stated thut about 35
of the pleasure seekers who did not
desire to spend the entire night
away from the home circle were still
waiting at the Chatcolet station and
were speaking of the railroad com
pany in anything but complimentary
terms. Over an hour was lost in re
turning to pick up the stragglers and.
at each station the crew appeared to
be attempting to break the record
for delay of the previous station
finally reaching Pullman four hours
behind schedule, just in time to hear
the heads of the local chicken coops
proclaim the breaking of a new day.
Everything taken Into considera
tion, however, the day was one well
spent, and the excursionists re
turned in good spirits despite the
tedious six and one-half hours grind
over the 0.-W rails.

.MANY TRACT! LISTKI)
AT COLFAX
George S. Canfield of '.Spokane,
who represents the Spokane Cham
ber of Commerce in the interests of
the Northwest Immigration move
ment, passed through Pullman
Wednesday en route to Colton and
Uniontowu. Mr. Canfield stated
that the farmers In all parts of the
Northwest are taking hold of the
campaign with the spirit that does
things. In two days' work at Colfax
he secured the listing of 12,000
acres of land. The Pullman com
mittee, appointed to secure listings,
is meeting with such success, and It
is probable that at least 10,040 acres
will be listed here.

week announced the engagement of
their daughter, Marie Savage, and
Charles a. Tho-rpson, who will i>c

A. K. lUM'll PASSES AWAY
Wind was received In Pullman
| Wednesday announcing the death at
Medical Lake on Tuesda) afternoon
of A. B. Balch; the veteran Pullman
ischool teacher. Over a year ago Mr.
Batch, whose health had been fail
ing rapidly, left Pullman to enter the
Odd Fellows home at Walla Walla.
After remaining there for several
months he suffered a mental col
lapse and was taken to Medical Lake
Tor treatment, dying in the sanitar
: ium there. Mr. Batch was well
known in Pullman and had many
friends her.' who will remember him
as ordinarily a congenial and happy
fellow, although 'somewhat touchy
on some subjects. He was a mem
ber of both the Odd Fellows and

SENIORITY IN PRESIDENCY
(Continued from first page)
I dent of Jefferson College, and Mr.
; Webster was referring to the fact
: that in the pioneer days of the insvl
• tution the wolves at nighttime often
i prowled about near the college and
: howled.
i President Bryan relates how won
■ dei ml it seemed to him, as a small
: boy, to hear his/ father tell of this
: address and its allusion to wolves
• howling on a college campus. Many
: years later, in the beginning of his
| administration as president of the
Stato College ho heard the coyotes
howling from tho hills about Pull
man and tho college, and recalled
this story of the wolves that howled
on tho campus of old Jefferson.
In JSiO, tho older Bryan, an or
dained minister, moved with his fam
ily to Bloomington, Indiana. tie
bought a small 80-acre farm three
miles out, and it was on this farm,
thu Ban year, thai E. A. Bryan was
born. .Mr. Bryan was an ardent
anti-slavery man. On one occasion
he was mobbed in Cincinnati for de
livering an abolition address. This
v. us pretty close to the Civil war.
The family continued to live at
Bloomington, and as they grew up,
several of the children entered the
university and were graduated.
Mr. Bryan's pastoral engagements
kept him away from home much of
the time. Enoch A. was the eldest
sua. and upon tho eldest son fell
much of the farm work. At the age
of J I years he was hauling wood to
town and selling it. He now has ft
letter written iv 18C3-—when he was
10 — 10 an uncle in Kansas, in which
he mentions a cord of wood he had
cut and sold for one dollar.
Other happenings of his childhood
are quite vividly remembered now,
and one is the occasion of his first
punishment in school. Ho was then
live years old. It was against Lhe
rule of the school to whisper^ At the
close of the day the roll was called,
and tho little hoys who had not
whispered or done anything else that
was bad could answer "Perfect." It
they had whispered, they must
answer "imperfect." During the day
the five-year-old member of the
Bryan family had whispered. He
nudged his seatniate, whispering a
question and offering information at
1 be same time.
"Who did your father vote for.'"*
he asked. My father voted for
Lincoln."
So Enoch had to stay in a half
hour after the other little boys had
trudged homeward; for, when the
evening roll was called, he truth
fully answered "Imperfect."
At this time there were In South
ern Indiana, many southern people.
Some were loyal to the Union, and
a few were disloyal. On one occa
sion the big boys of the neighbor
hood erected a great flagstaff, and
Enoch's older sister made a big
flag. There was a great flag-raising
ami accompanying celebration, in
which tho Bryan children, large and
small, joined.
That night the rebels came and
tore the flag down. Great was the
wrath of the abolitionists. The boys
drilled with wooden guns and talked
war talk just like their elders, who
were talking about the firing on
Surapter and Lincoln's Proclamation."
In spite of burden of -farm
work, Enoch managed to get in most
of the alloted time for school. Ho
had one teacher whom he remembers
especially well, who he now says was
the best teacher he ever had. This
was Old Frank—a strong, raw
boned, hard-headed horse. The
summer he was eleven, Enoch culti
vated seven acres of corn. The
struggle that occurred between boy
and horse President Bryan now re
counts as one of the greatest ex
periences of his lifetime. He plowed
the corn, however. Old Frank's oc
casional detours after a tempting tuft
of grass or an especially juicy corn
stalk often drew the plow into the
row, but, summed up, the job was
fairly well done.
After finishing the neighborhood
school Enoch attended the schools in
Bloomington, walking three miles
across-country, morning and even
ing. It is worthy of note that along
this route were no less than 15 high
rail fences, each of which he climbed
twice to three times dally during the
greater part of the time he studied
at the university.
At the age of 18 he was appointed
by the township trustees away down
near Madison, Indiana, teacher of
the school at $30vo0 a month, for a
period of four and one-half months.
This appointment, he now declarer,
jgrve him more pleasure than any
other he has received in a career of
j nearly 35 years as teacher and col
| lege president.
In 1878, just graduated from the
University of Indiana, he became
superintendent of schools in Gray
ville, Illinois. There he met Miss
Hattie Williams, and they were mar
ried somewhat later. In the early
eighties, he received an Instructor
ship in Vincennes University, Indi
ana, and a few years later became its
I president. This position he occupied
for 12 years. In 1893 he accepted
the presidency of the State College of
Washington. In the 21 years which
have elapsed since that time he has
attained seniority In the presidency
of all state institutions, either agri
cultural colleges or universities, In
the United States.
Note: During several years in
this office, stories of the boyhood of
our president have from time to time
been dropped, some of which may
interest alumni who for so many
years have known him so well. The
first story, however, was not from
the President himself.—J. L. A.

QUART WEIGHTS OF GRAIN ;
It Is more convenient for a farmer
to feed by measure than by weight.
Rations usually are given by weight
for the sake of accuracy, and be
cause there is considerable variation
in different feeds. If a farmer
knows what a quart of his grain mix
ture weighs, he can convert the
weight to a measure scale. The fol
lowing table gives the approximate
weight in jounds of one quart of
some common dairy feeds:
Cottonseed meal 1.5
Linseed meal, old process 1.7
Linseed meal, new process 1.1
Gluten feed 12
Gluten meal '.1.7
Hominy chop 1.2
Wheat bran, coarse 5
Wheat middlings, coarse 8
Wheat middlings, fine 1.1
Wheat, whole 1.9
Wheat, ground 1.7
Corn, whole 1.7
Cornmeal 1.5
Corn and cob meal 1.3
Oats, whole 1.2
Oats, ground 8
11. O. dairy feed 7
Victor corn feed 7
Brewer's grains 6
Suppose the grain ration calls for
two parts of corn meal, one part
oats, one part oil meal, and one part
of gluten feod. We recently sug
gested to a correspondent that he
feed one pound of this mixture to
every throe or four pounds of milk
his cows produced. His roughage ra
tion was shredded fodder. If he
mixed up 500 pounds at a time, he
would have 200 pounds of corn meal,
which would be 33 quarts; 100
pounds of old process oil meal,
which would be 60 quarts; 100
pounds of ground oats, which would j
bo 125 quarts, and 100 pounds of
gluten feed, which would be 11
mixture would make a total of 400
quarts. The 500 pounds of grain
mixture would make a total of 400
quarts. Therefore, each quart should '
weigh one and a quarter pounds.
We said to feed one pound for ,
each three or four pounds of milk. I
I
Suppose a cow Is giving 21 pounds of
milk dally. Allowing one pound of I
grain for every three and a half I
pounds of milk, the cow should have
six pounds of grain. It would not be
very convenient to have to weigh
this out each time. As each quart of
this particular grain mixture should '
weigh a pound and a quarter, the '
six pounds would be nearly five:
quarts, which would be near enough j
for practical purposes.
