CANADIAN WILDS
Blustrared, for the Benefit of the
Episcopal Church.
Probably the last opportunity this
season to attend a good illustrated
lecture will be at the Auditorium
Friday night, May 19, when Dr. E. ,
S. Moore will talk on , the Canadian
North, one of the , few remaining
frontiers of the world.
About - too slides, some of them
handsomely illustrated will be
thrown on the screen, depicting the
scenery, camp life hunting, fishing,
wild animals and Indians to be met
with in this interesting country
which is next door to us and about
which we know so little.
Dr. Moore has spent several sum
mers in this wilderness while on ex
ploration work for the Canadian
Government and can supplement the
views and the lecture with many
personal anecdotes of an amusing
and serious nature. As ' all the
views were taken by him he can tell
about them in a way to make you
think you went there and looking
through the camera.
The entire proceeds of the lecture
ate to go to the Episcopal church,
and to be• used to' aid in building a
church on the ground dedicated last
week. So that all may come the
prices are popula:.- Adults 15 cents,
Children 10 cents.
Coming Baseball Games•
Next Tuesday our nine leaves for
the "New England Trip" including
games against Lehigh, Amherst,
Dertmouth and Lafayette. All
these are strong opponents but our
team has been going well, having
now won five games straight, and it
will be out four victiories. Prepara
tion for the journey should be got
from the Gettysburg College cotest
scheduled for tomorrow and that on
Saturday
_with the University of
Pittsburg, both to be played on
Beaver Field.
Although the games scheduled
here with Gettysburg in 'O9 and 'lO
Were prevented. by rain, .? e have
downed the Gettysimigeis in seven
out of fen past struggles on the di
amond. Rain has prevented at least
four encounters with Pitt, too, but
we won the only two games played,
11 to 6 in '97 and 1 to 0 in 1908,
both at State College. The Pitts
burgers have a team that is consid
ered rather weak- this season and it
even seems doubtful that they will
Nesent a team on new Beaver field
on Saturday.
New Tattooing Device.
The Dairy Husbandry Depart
ment has imported from Arnold &
Co., London, England, an improved
tattooing device for marking ani
mals for positive ,dentification.
Breeders have found that some
method of permanent marking is
necessai y in oidei to guard against
the loss of identity thiough the loss
of ear tags in ordinal y use.

Guernsey Breeders' Meeting
, Penn State represented at the
Guernsey breeders meeting: Profes
sor Van Norman discussed the val
ue of the cow testing association at
the recent meeting of eastern Guern
sey Breeders Association, at Lard
ner Howell's, Whitford, Pa. The
data from the past year's work of
the testing association in the vicin
ity of State College rev,als many
interesting facts., One dairyman
received from his herd of 15 c )ws a
margin above feed cost of $180.16.
Had he sold his four poo•est cows,
he would have receiN ed from the re
maining 11 a profit of $196.77.
With the smaller number of cows,
he would thus haN e received a
greater profit with only three-foul the
the amount of feed, labor and cap
it.;l invested.
In almost every herd aie found
some profitable cows and otheis re
markably poor. One cow charged
her owner 81 cents for producing
one pound of butter fat and return
ed but 58 cents for every dollars
worth of feed she consumed. In
this same herd, if all the cows had
been equal to the best one, the re
turns would have been $2.1,- 1 instead
of $1.33 for every dollai's worth of
feed consumed.
The New Air Brake Equipment
The Westinghouse new E-1 air
brake rack which has just been in
stalled in the Engineering building
for instruction purposes, in the rail
road mechanical engine.is course, is
one of the most complete up-to-date
equipments sent out by the com
pany. It involves all the. important
recent improvements and contains
the special feature whereby the en
gine and tender can be controlled
independently of the cat brakes,
thus requiring much delicate and
complicated apparatus. The in
stallation was made under the direc
tion of Mr. Ai thut Johnson, jr. for
the Westinghouse Alt Brake com
pany and Prof. A. J Wood for the
college. ,
