whcn  hits  counted  most,  but  the 
fielding  was  a  great  improvement 
over  that  of  a  week  ago.  Every

the 
game in  earnest,  and  o nl y  one error 
WIIS  recorded.

Though  every  Illall  was  at  his 
best, interest  ce ntered  in  the  fresh 
mllfl  pitc her,  La  Fever, who allowed 
but  five  hits  while  pitching  his first 
college  g:tme.  Not  a 
l':enlucky 
man  found  him  fo r  a  safe hit until 
the  5lh,  and  he  struck  out  cight 
men  during  the  game.  He  was 
extrcmely  cool 
for  his  first  big 
game,  and  gives  promise  of  great 
development.  He  has  a  variety  of 
breaks and  drops  which,  when  Ull_ 
der  complete  control,  will  prove 
conundrums. 

In  the fifth,  two singles  put  two 
of  the  visitors  on  bases,  and  the 
next  Illan  up  hit  a  slow  rolling  ball 
which  LaFever failed  to  get to  fil'St 
in  time,  then  filling  the  bases.  The 
next  man  up hit  to  Valz, who threw 
to  first,  nl10wing  the  man  on  3d  to 
score.  This  was  the  visitors' onl), 
opportunity. 

M.  A.  C.  scored  in  the  firs t,  two 
in  the  second  and  two  more  in  the 
third.  Anothe r  was  added  in  the 
fourth, with two  men  out, and  again

111  a  recent  numher  o f  S(;t'IU·~ 
there :tppears  an  article  cspecially 
interesting  to  friends  of  ~l. A.  C. 
because of a  certain  tablllHtc d  stnte~

The article  de:tls  with  the influ·

"Each of  the educatiollal  institu· 
tions  of 
is  generally 
rccogni.:ed  as standing  for  a  ccrt:lin 
Iype  of inslruction, or COIlCCPlioll  of 
It  seemed  10 
e(luclItional  method. 
be  of  interest  to  determinc  to  whnl 
proportionnte  extent  the  ideals  of 
each such institution  are  influencing 
the developmelll  of  :l.gricuhure. 

"For  this  purpose,  a  study  was 
made of the  n umber of degrees (ex 
clusive of honorary degrees) granted 
by  each  institu tio n  to  persOIlS  who 
lire,  or  who  hl1\'C  been  during  the 
past  fire ye:lrs,  memuers  of the  So 
ciety  for  thc  P rcser..-alion  of  Agri 
cultural  :Science.  This  sociel\' docs 
not,  of course, include eve r )'  jlcrson 
who  is  actively  engaged  in  this field 
of  work.  But its  membership  does 
include  a  very  large  proportion  of 
the  leaders  of  this  mO\'ement 
in 
AmeriCII,  and  is  probably  closely 
representati,'c of the schol;tstic tmin 
ing  \, hich  such  leaders hip  has  re 
cci\·ed." 

In  the  t:tbulated  statement  gin'n, 
over 20  institutions  lire  represented 
as  having  granted  degrees  to  the 
members of the above-mentioned so 
ciety,  and  ~I.  A.  C.  stands  at  the 
hend  of  the  list,  having"  granted  a 
total  of  38  degrees.  or  this  num 
ber, 21  were  bachelors,  15  mllstcrs, 
and  2  doctors.  Cornell  is  a  second, 
with  It  total  of  2S,  and  Iowa  State 
third,  with  18. 

Commcnting  011  the  tabulation, 
"arious  rClIsons  arc  given  for  thc 
distribution,  but  it  is  believed  that 
the  figures  gi"cn  approximately 
represent the influence of the sevcral 
inslilulions  upon  the  general  Irend 
of  thought  in  agricultural  science. 

Of  the  1-t7  men  who  have  been 
OU  the  membership  rot!  of this  so-
ciety  during  the  past  five  years, 
128  hn\'e 
received  bachelor's,  82
