OF a horse can be so injurious as the ao-

Whom TO Train q Horse.

Twenty years ago the average trainer
believed that the time to break colt
was at from to years of age. Tie
performance was stand up fight be-
tween the trainer and the colt, and per-
haps the colt came out of the mill worsted
he certainly came out worse. Now all
is changed. The youngster grows up
under control-he never knows absolute
freedom, and therefore he never feels
subsection. Before he is strong enough
to make stubborn resistance he has for

go as he is guided and do as directed has
become his natural habit His whole
early life is an inductional course OF edu-

How TO Keep Eggs.

The egg begins to grow stale almost
as soon as it is laid, and the cause OF
many failures to preserve eggs perfectly
fresh. says the Farmers Monthly, is found
I'm tho fact that decay set In before the
preserving began, and of course 1t con
tinued In spite Of efforts to arrest 1t. In
preserving eggs, therefore, take mono
but those fresh from the nest. This is
the first rule to observe. The next is,
no matter what process you use, keep
the preserved eggs in the coolest dry
place possible; dampness will mould
them, heat will rapidly evaporatc their
natural moisture, and any process which
will keep them absolutely air tight will
keep them fresh for an indefinite length
Of time. Among the countless methods
recommended is this one:
Take five quarts of rock salt, five
pounds of unslacked lime and u quarter
OF pound of cream OF tartar; dissolve
In four pals of water, which makes SUI
ficient pickle for barrel OF eggs. Eggs
are always to be kept under pickle.

Skunks not only make raids npon the

To attack the bees stores OF honey, says
AmeTicd1. CulttpdtOr. They are unable
10 ret into the hives, not having the
pnawing powers OF some of the other ro-

ing the bees. Their mode OF procedure IS
TO scratch on the outside OF the hive until
the attention of the bees Is attracted,
and they come outside TO ascertain the
cause. Then they catch the bees as
they emerge from the narrow doorway
and proceed to eat them. They prefer
those bees with honey in their sacs, and
the dead drones In front OF the hives are
not touched. The skunks would be q
greater nuisance II they could get In al

their glory. However, one or two oi

j. u. dERPHEIDE, one Of the oldest
settlers of our city, died on Friday last
after long and painful illness. He was
borI at GartrCp, near Vessel on the Rhine,
October Is, 1924; he served over five years
IN the Prussian army and was an officer
IN the 9Th Regiment OF Hussars. He
emlgrated to America 10 1919 and settled
In Manitowoc, which has been his home
from 81 to 80, when he resided in Wheel
ing, Ill. He was married in 1852 to Hen
rletta BartelS, the issue of said marriage
being two sons, Henry J. and Otto. The
former is now prominent attorney of
Chicago, and the latter cigar manu-
facturer in this city. In 1857 be married
again, and his second wife survives him;
she was the widow of Dr. Purman and a
daughter of DIR. Scbenk. OF the second
marriage six children survive who are all
OF age and married with the exception of
the two youngest. Mir. Gerpheide was
chosen To public Office at various times,
having acted as town treasurer, city trea-
surer, assessor, and census enumeration.
He was member of the German lodge
Of Odd Fellnws and also of the Masonic
lodge; of the latter he had been mem
Der since 1857, being one Of the oldest

at times. Oddly enough, the most invul-
nerable part of the report seems to be
the most generally attacked. The report
specially recognizes the fact that there
are specials who are in every way worthy
and well prepared students. 1t is an I'M
deniable fact that heretofore these stu
dents have not been properly recognized.

better, work than a regular" although

HE committee appointed to select a
site for the new school building for the
north side were unable to report at the
adjourned meeting held Mon day, and the
two weeks extension of time asked was
granted. A full report is promised at an
adjourned meeting to be held in the north
side school Saturday, July 25.
To a close observer the educational
outlook for Manitowoc city is by no
means of the brightest. While every city
in the state of the size of Manitowoc en-
Joys the superior advantages of city
school system. Manitowoc adheres to
the independent district system with
astounding pertinacity. The work ac-
complished is by no means of an inferior
character but the special elements of
strength characterizing the different
schools could be transformed into great
educational factor by the creation of a
entral high school, and that combined
with the hearty support that the pub
licschools receive in the city would make
Manitowoc an educational center second
to none in the state. Why then is SO de-
sirable a consummation not brought
ebout? 1t cannot be that sectional jeal-
ousy is sufficiently powerful to defeat it.
Petty factional opposition should not APP
pear in questions relating to the advance
ment of the educational interests of the
city. and it is safe TO say that they will
not. If the adherents of the high school
plan would act Immediately and yigor-
ously they would be successful. The dis
tricts on the south side have expressed
a willingness to consider the question,
and many prominent men of the north
side concede the advisability of securing
a high school. 4 strong effort should be
made to bring this matter properly be-
fore the public before it is too late.
