CoRREcr-Kansas does not need
longer sessions Of the Legislature. We
already have too many laws. What
il wanted is fewer laws passed more
deliberately, and then the courts will
not have 50 much to dO. If it helps
out any we are willin to let every law
we have urged passed go over to the
next session. That is certainly mag
unanimous, and it is in order for the
legislature to agree not to pass any
laws at all. Kansas would worry
through some way.-Salina Republi-

WORD to the Teacher.

Some of the School district boards I'm this and
other cOuntie, seem to think that the Law
does not give them sufficient power over the
teacher; sc they seek to remedy this by no
quiring the teacher to sign away all his right
in the contract and thus place himself at the
mercy of their whims.
case of this kind ,as tried in the Justice
Court recentlyIn which it was clearly shown
that the teacher had taught good school;
but. because the board were q set of cranks
and had their iron clad contract, the school
had TO be closed.
At present writing. the school Is without q
teacher and we are Of the opinion that few
teachers in the county are anxious to engage
it under the circumstances; this not being the
first teacher that has had to leave this school.
We wish further to say to the teachers that
you want nothing whatever to do with q
school board that will not hire you with the
plain contract.
Such a board does not deserve teacher of
any kind and it will serve them just right
should the teachers refuse to have anything
whatever to do with them.
More aboLt this at another time.

Florida Chicken Pea.

The value of the chicken pea, or tree
pea both as food for man and beast, ap-
pears to be very little known or appreci-
ated. Therefore few words on the sub
ject may not be amiss.
This pea is known In the Bahamas as
pigeon pea, and is as staple an article of
food as the beanis to Boston. Quantities
are shipped every year to Key West
where they find ready market tits also
planted for wind breaks, also in old fields
as a renovator of the soil. Needing no
cultivation it grows on from year to year
unit over-topped by the natural growth.
| have two trees in my yard here
planted near the fence in March 1887.
They have had no cultivation, and were
planted ten feet apart, are now twelve
feet high with branches interlocked. One
has a stem twelve inches in circumference
near the ground, the other nine inches.
Horses and stock of all kinds readily eat
the pea leaves and tender twigs. Planted
in a chicken yard it forms valuable
shade in summer, and keeps blooming in
every warm spell throughout the winter.
Chickens find occupation and green food
to last well into spring, when itcomes out
in full bloom, looking something like
peach tree, with yellow blossoms and for
the time being converted into an orna-
mental tree. The crop is matured here
in May and the early part of June.

possible. MRS. f. ii.
Mannville, Florida.
In reply to the above questions, and to
MANY Others OF similar characterize
would say that very nearly all manufact-
uring chemists use the articles referred
to. Prices vary Some firms pay more
than Others, and they all require sam
pie before quoting prices.
Palmetto berries should be picked just
before ripening and thoroughly dried in
the sun or shade.
Stillingia root can be gathered now, it
should also be we'll dried, and cutinto Sec
tions one or two inches long. 1t is best to
dry these roots i'll the shade t
Prickly ash bark may be cut from the
latter part OF this month until late in
August. Be careful to get only the bark
and none of the tree chips.
Messrs. w. A. Allen & Co. DeLand, Fla,
are the emanufacturers agents for thepur-
chase of these articles and many others
of similar character. Send them by
mail samples (well cured) of your berries,
barks and roots, and they will quo;e you

probably fresh seed, by addressing Bu-
