JEFFERSON CRY, Mo-, May 1S.-
A farmer said to me the other day,
"Our district is OF average size, and
yet the attendance is very small
and irregular. With but six months
school, the average attendance dur
ing the last month runs as low as
six to eight" What is true of this
district, is true, to greater or less
extent, Of thousands of districts.
The remedy is, stronger and more
earnest teachers. Pre-eminently the
teacher makes the school, molding
pupils and patrons at his will. The
strong, enthusiastic teacher, by
sheer personal force, draws the
pupils to school regularly, on time,
to study. The lawyer without
clients, the physician without
patients, the preacher without an
audience, the teacher with empty
seats are to be placed in the same
class.
That the teaching force of Missou-
ri may be strengthened, county in
stitutes, lasting month, will be
held during the coming summer, in
eNry county of the State. That
the teachers may have better equip
ped and more enthusiastic instruc-
tors, the State Training School will
be in session in the Warrensburg
State Normal School Building, June
"a to July 5, '92, for the purpose of
training and licensing institute in
structors. The first session of the
Training School (June, '91) was a
remarkable success, enrolling 800 of
Missouri's ablest educators from
one hundred counties.
Each step taken at the Training
School will have definitely in view
the improvement of every school in
the State, and is, therefore, of vital
interest to every patron. Whatever
you may be able to do to secure one
or more leading representatives from
your county and to arouse an ed
ucational interest in the State Asso-
citation, the Training School and
the Institutes will be much appre-
ciated. | would be pleased if you
would arrange with the representa-
tive from your county to furnish
you with brief account of the pro-
ceedings of the Association and
Training School, in order that the
army of patrons may know what is
being done. 1t is not enough that
we interest the teachers 1.-THE patrons
must be interested also, through the
lpress.
The State Teachers Association
will be in session at Pertle Springs
| (Warrensburg,) June 81 to %,
'92. Last year the enrolment
reached 600. This year, it is con-
fdently believed it will reach 900,
At the National Educational Asso-
citation held at Toronto, Canada, last
July, Missouri ranked third in at,
tendance, being led only by Illinois
and Ohio. It is believed that we
will occupy like position of pre-
eminence at the coming meeting to
be held at Saratoga, N. Y, July II

The John Sherman boom met an
early death. Blaine would much
prefer seeing Harrison again re-
nominated; he has not forgotten that
it was Sherman who kept him out
of the coveted nomination in 1880,
nor has he forgiven it. In fact, there
is no forgiveness in Mr.. Blaine's
make up; if he is once an enemy
he is always an enemy. This trait
in his character seems to have been
entirely overlooked by some of those
who are figuring on his aiding their
Presidential aspiration.

Farmers should Get Good Seed Corn.


Farmers Should Get Good Seed Corn.
The State Board of Agriculture at
Columbia says that farmers should
be careful in selecting seed corn this
year, owing to the lateness of the
season, and should secure varieties
of early kind, avoidinglate maturing
corn. A few dollars spent for
seed may result in a good crop,
while if late maturing corn is
planted a failure might be made.
The Board says there is plenty OF
time yet to have good crop. The
following varieties have been tested
by the Missouri Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Stations and are recon-
mended: Champion Early White,
Cuban Queen, Chester County Mann
moth, Woodward's Yellow Dent,
Yellow Mammoth King, Murdock's
Improved, Riley's Favorite, Gran
berry White, Three Months Corn,
Blount's Prolific, Leaning, Queen
of Prairie, North Star, Logan, I'm
