CLOSE SEASON IN A BLAZE OF GLORY. THE RELATION OF ENGIN EERING TO AGRICUL TURE. EXTRACTS FROM AN ADDRESS BY DEAN G. W. B IS S E L L BE FORE THE NORMAL FARM ER'S INSTITUTE. An analysis of the daily life of the average American farmer of today, shows that he and his family depend upon the labor, skill and knowledge of those in other walks of life ,for which make his lotto-day more en- many material comforts and luxuries viable than that of his forbears. T he engineer and the farmer have several points of contact. A no ticeable one is transportation facil- locates, builds ties. T he engineer and operates the railway lines, and the electric lines, and interurban builds the highways over which the farmer and his produce and supplies are taken to and from market. T he engineer builds the wagons, electric and steam cars and locomotives and automobiles which are the vehicles of traffic. A n o t h er point of contact is the telephone, which, while apparently a simple thing, represents in reality a vast amount of inventive and engineer ing skill its present state as a cheap and reliable means of com munication. this immense in is More intimately connected with the actual work of farming the question of drainage, which from a haphazard scheme of limited appli cation has been studied and devel oped on scientific principles by the engineer so that its benefits can be for readily and certainly obtained town the individual farm, for ship, county, or district. is irrigation, which in certain parts of this coun try has been instituted on a mam moth scale by men having engineer ing skill to devise and construct the means of impounding and distribu ting as needed the waters of rivers and wells. to drainage Akin the irrigation are Transportation, communication, drainage and the larger and broader points of contact between engineering and agricul ture wherein the engineer renders material benefit to the farmer.

One of the most satisfactory con certs ever given at the college w,as p r e s e n t ed by the Treble-Clef Chorus of Olivet College last Tues day evening. T he soprano solo by Miss Cooper, the piano solo by Miss Hungerford, and the reading by Miss Scott were delightful punctuation marks in the charming choruses of the sixteen young ladies. T he program to musician and to the untrained, being between carefully the classico-popular and the popular- classical. All in all, Miss Bintliff, the conductor, is to be most heartily trained a congratulated on having things in a chorus to do beautiful beautiful way.

In the afternoon, the 5,000 specta tors at the game fully enjoyed and applauded the work of the b a n d; the rooting and songs of the band, students and alumni, being quite a treat for them.

I THE TECHNICAL CLUBS Brief Reviews of the Meetings ENGINEERING SOCIETY. that we have T he Engineering Society was favored Tuesday evening by hav ing Mr. J. R. McCall, of Detroit, as a speaker. He spoke on the sub ject, " M o d e rn Problems in Heating and Ventilation." M r. McCall is a strong advocate for fresh air. He said thermometers that tell the temperature of a room and we should also have some ap paratus for detecting the amount of carbon dioxide in a room. Many companies are manufacturing de vices which they claim will give perfect ventilation but drawing air from the outside by means of a fan system is the up-to-date method of ventilation. Mr. McCall illustrated his lecture by slides. He first showed the disk type of fans which is limited in its adaptability. It gives only pres sures of three-fourths to one pound and can only be used for ventilating one or two rooms. T he centrifugal fans are more generally used. He showed how fans are used to venti late mines where is not heated. T he fans are made so that fresh air can be blown in or smoke and gases drawn out. He showed different types of heaters and stated less that a blower system requires heating surface radia than direct tion. is better still to heat by It direct radiation and ventilate by the blower system. the air T he air that is used for ventila tion i. e., is sometimes washed, passed through a partition of char that is kept wet by coal or coke In this way about running water. 98 per cent, of the impurities are taken out. i Mr. McCall illustrated by his in ventilating slides the difficulties and heating factories, theatres and school houses, and the different ways in which thev are overcome.
