TEXT BOOKS.

The new text books are now in the
hands Of the regularly appointed
| agents, who are ready to begin the
work Of exchange. The people gen
orally are afraid Of change Of text
books on account Of the expense and
III some cases with very good reason
too. But in this instance we have
everything to gain and nothing to
lose, for III making the change the
patron is allowed for the old books
about 50 per cent Of the cost OF the
new, which, as everyone knows who
knows anything about the usual con-
dition of old text books, is much
more than their real value.
Teachers are requested on begin
ming the fall or winter terms to have
, the exchange fully made before the
school work proper begins. II the
pupils come to school without having
made the change the teacher should
consult the classification register and
question the pupils carefully in re-
gard to the necessary books to be
procured, then when the selections
have been carefully made send writ.
ten notice to the parents, but in no
case begin work in the old books.
This may cause some little work on
the part Of both teachers and pat
rons, but in the end it will be much
less than any other plan. Patrons
should be very careful in making the
change to avoid selecting books of
too high grade, especially in read
ers. If your boy or girl has been
reading in the first reader unless he
is quite proficient get the new first
reader instead Of getting a second as
is usually done. There is nothing
which hinders children from becom.
ing good readers more than permit.
ting them to read III a book one grade
in advance of their ability. The ex.
change period begins August II and
ends January l, 1899. The agents ap
pointed for the different towns are al
follows: Cresco, G. w. Fields s. Son;
Lime Springs, G. A. Searles & Bro.

The honey crop for 1891 is short
