Minnesota School Decisions.
The state superintendent of public in
struction has rendered the following decis
ions relating to his department.: A district
had no school during the year ending Au-
gust 81 1882, but before the March appor-
tionment in 1883 completed . three months
TERM Is il entitled to q share in that ap-
por,ionment? Held, that it is not. The
words thin the year" in Sec. 75t page
26, School Laws, refer to the year on which
the apportionment is based; that is to say,
the ear ending with the previous August.
Otherwise the district would sustain no loss
of apportionment by failing to have three
months school for u full school year, and
would stand on a par in this respect with
other districts which did have . school,
which is clearly not the intent O: the law.
Also, q certificate given to . teacher in an

Meeting of tho Northwestern Dairy.
men at Mankat0, Minn.-De1egates
from Various states.-Thouehtful
Papers from Emmett Men Upon
Subjects Of Interest to Minnesota
Butter PRODUCERS.
The northwestern association Of dairymen
cohvensd on tn. 18th at Mankato, hinneso.
t.. BY invitation 81 the city council and
board OF trade. The association Representa-
the dairymen OF the four states, Minnesota;
Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois; and delegates
were present from these and many other
statee.
The proceedings was opened With an ad-
dress Of welcome by Hon. J. B. Wakefield,
N. c. elect, in which he presented the advan-
tages offered for the dairy Industry, and COM
plimented those who were forwarding.
Col. r. P. McGlincy, Of Illinois responded
In candid manner, assuring the Minnesota
farmers that If there was anything that
would take mortgage off their farms In the
world, it was the dairy interest. -.
The annual address of the president, w.
d. Hoard, of Fort Atkinson, Wis.,. was an
interesting and able production. He spoke
ct length OF the power Of organization. in
lowering freights o. goods on refrieer-
ator cars, etc. BY means of this organic 'tion
was established the now;famous Elgin Dairy
board of trade, whose transactions last
year amounted to over $500 OOO, 600. Other
boards of trade have also been established.
BY virtue OF the three lea ing associations
of the country, the Northwestern, the Ma.
tional Butter associ alton, and the Wiscon-
sin association, the dairymen OF the North.
west were enabled to hold dairy fair last
December that eclipsed any previous At
tempt of the kind in this country. By the
aid of this and sister organization the dairy
men of the Northwest have become recog-
nized as; . living force in the land. Another
of its objects ~ to increase the profit Of farm
ing and enhance the productive value of
real estate; another, to educate and enlighten
the farmer in all that pertains this branch
of agriculture, and thereny increase his re-
spect both for his business,and himself. The
"bettermenl" idea lies at the root of dairy
farming. Its effect IS first on the farmer.
1t opens to him new possibilities; offers him
larger and surer rewards: conirOhts him
with constant succession os new and fresh
ideas; forces him into deeper channels of
thought; compels HIM to. become acquainted
with the finer economies of all the life
that is about him and in the end turns him
out of the state broader and deeper citizen.
1t is not the soil OF Minnesota that need to be
shared 10 much az the brains of her farmerrs.
