s WLCONOUET ADVANCED COURES Bureau of Standards and Agriculture Department [ Offer Opportunities. Uncle Sam turns university profes- gor with the coming of Autumn. Two Government departments—the Bureau of Standards and the Depart- ment of ‘Agriculture—are offering to thelr personnel and to outsiders able | to benefit by the work advanced | scientific courses. The Government does not give degrees for this work, | but most of the larger universities, hoth in the United States and Europe, give credit for the courses. The courses are given outside of working hours—between 8 and 9 a.m. and after 4:30 pm. Employes are en- couraged to take these courses in pur- suance of degrees and the teachers are among the most notable scientific men in the United States. The Bureau of Standards, which is one of the head- quarters for the sciences of physics and chemistry in the United States, is offering six courses this Winter. The educational work is in charge of a committee headed by Dr. L. B. Tucker- man. For Advanced Students. All the courses offered this vear are for advanced students with the equiv- alent of a college training in mathe- matics. Most of the courses consist of 50 lectures, upon which the students | will take notes and pass examinations | just as in a regular university. The | subjects offered this year range from a special course on the electromag- netic theory, which is the basis of all radio science, which will be taught by Dr. Chester Snow, to advanced mathe- matics for students of physics and| chemistry, to be taught by Dr. Tobias Danzig. W. J. Berry will give 60 Jectures on the intricate mathematical fleld of differential equations, and Dr. Paul R. Heyl will lecture on the special mathematical tools used in advanced physics. A course in atomic physics will be taught by Dr. W. A. McNair and a course in photochemistry by Dr..B. H. Carroll. Agriculture Department Courses. The Department of Agriculture “college™ offcrs a morve diversified list of courses, which will afford an educa- tional opportunity to clerical workers . as well as to the scientific personnel. Outside the scientific courses in ad- vanced mathematics, biochemistry, statistical methods and soil chemistry there will be more popular courses in the history of American agriculture, the literature of rural life anad ele- mentary botany. These courses are all in charge of Dr. A. F. Woods, direc- tor of scientific work. Many of the employes in both de- partments, it is explained in the pre- Jiminary announcements, are college graduates, who often are prone to neglect their further education once they are placed in a Government job, thus ruining their own chances of ad- vancement. The purpose of the courses is to give them an opportunity for specialized study at convenient hours in their own departments. FARM AID FORECAST BY SENATOR FESS Ohioan Declares Era of Prosperity Will Continue Through- out Nation. By the Associated Press. ¢ NEW . YORK, October 15.—Con- tinued business prosperity throughout the Nation and congressional aid for the farmer were predicted tonight by United States Senator Simoen D. Fess of Ohio, speaking at the twenty-third annual dinner of the New York State Real Estate Boards.

These conditions, he declared, are likely to continue. Agriculture he believed to be suf- fering because of surplus production, and he suggested regulation of pro- duction so far as is possible and or- ganization of marketings as a remedy.
