T he members of the real estate board have been enthusiastically planning for the new boulevard some time and last week they presented their pros pectus of the drive and the route it will fol low before the board of cemetery and park commissioners, asking their approval and co operation in perfecting the plan. The project, which has already been planned in detail and fully surveyed, would make one of the 'most scenic river drives near any Michigan city and would in additiqn open a new vista of small parks and picnic places bordering t h e' river and boulevard to be enjoyed by Lansing- ites. The drive would be 60 feet in width and would join Euclid blvd., which is the first west of the old White Elephant running from Michigan Ave. south to the river. Euclid Ave. is already laid out, it being 114 feet wide, with shrubbery already planted down the cen ter, and sidewalks already built. T he drive would be within sight of the river practically all of the way from the College to Lansing, following the meandering stream as nearly as possible without creating dangerous curves. All of those who made the trip are enthusiastic for an early beginning of the actual work of constructing the drive, and they not only think the project feasible but something that Lansing cannot afford to fore go if it wishes to become in any sense of the word a "city beautiful." sharp, DR. W. B. BARROWS, head of the department of zoology and physiology at the college, is attending the annual meeting in New York of the American Ornothologists' Union, of which he is a charter member, and a Fellow. This organization has a membership of nearly a thousand, but only 50 are Fellows. To be a Fellow, a man must have made considerable contribution to the science of ornothology, and for this reason it carries much honor with the election. Dr. Barrows is present ing a paper on " T he Breeding Range of the Kirtland Warbler." This paper is based on investigational work done last year by Dr. Barrows and Prof. Congor in Clare and Iosco it was Counties. that the Kirtland warbler nested in thought Previous to this time, no other place in the world except in two of our Michigan counties, but now it has been found that they nest in most of our Jack pine areas.

One great advantage of this work is the practical problems which may be brought back to the college for the consideration of the students now taking teaching work. This If our M. A. C. students starting out to teach agriculture and home economics have been criticized for one thing more than any thing else in the past, it has been their lack of practice teaching experience. To remedy this, in 1918 arrangements were made by the State Board of Agriculture with the Board of Education of East Lansing for the estab teaching classes in the lishment of practice East Lansing High school, entire and the teacher training matter was organized as a part of the department of Agricultural Edu cation or better, the department of Education. thru innovation was made possible compliance with the Smith-Hughes law passed by Congress in 1917.

Prices in many lines seem defi nitely to be coming down —and the purchasing power of the dollar to be going up. However, milk prices for October held closely to the September price, which was at a high level. The October milk price was about 30% higher than the May price. Our price on BUFFALO CORN GLUTEN FEED declined some 35% since May. In this general decline of prices, the feeder of BUFFALO CORN GLUTEN FEED has had a distinct advantage in the shape of our guarantees against decline in our price. With these guarantees on BUFFALO CORN GLUTEN FEED, the dealer has been able to rewrite his price from time to time, and keep current with the declines; and the dairy farmer, who has bought this feed with the same protection, is able to mark down his costs in the same way. A grain ration with a liberal proportion of BUFFALO CORN GLUTEN F E ED can be made up—on account of these guarantees—at a much lower cost than with other concentrated feeds.
