clan Center Times: The principal
powers of Europe have prohibited the
importation of American pork for
about ten years. The present admin
istration, through its state and agri-
cultural departments, undertook to
have these prohibitions removed. 1t
seemed like a useless task, and less
business-like administration would
have failed. Success attended the eff
forts of our officials, however, and
country after country lifted its embar-
go, until Spain, the last Of them, has
removed its prohibition. Previous to
1880 fifty per cent of the hog products
turned out of the packing houses of
the United States was exported. Since
that time the expectations have been
so small as to hardly attract attention.
The farmers of the Mississippi valley
cannot realize, until they see and feel
the fruits of this diplomacy, what
great benefits accrue TO them through
it. While it cannot be expected that
Europe will take half of the pork pro-
ducts of our country at this time, GER
tain it is that a great market has been
secured to the American farmer.

sczuoI MATTERS.

In response to formal inquiry Hon.
Amado Chaves, superintendent of
public instruction, has received the
following from Solicitor General
Bartlett.
Your favor, with inquiries In regard
to the school, is received, and in re-
ply to tie inquiries therein contained
would say that the school law of
1901, chapter %, section %, makes it
obligatory on the county treasurers
to give an additional bond as treas
urers of the school fund, and if they
neglect or refuse to do so, they can
be removed from office, and your
course in directing the collector not
to turn over money to treasurers
who have not given bond as required
by law is perfectly proper.
In regard to the expense of survey.
ing new school district and laying
the same out, while there is no speci-
fic law upon the subject except that
contained in section 33 of the act,
which limits the amount to be paid
by the county to $40, yet I think the
other legitimate expense connected
with the erection of the school dis
trict should properly be paid out of
the school fund for that district, as
this labor is essential to its corporate
existence and in order to enable it to
receive its proportion of the school
fund. But how the school superin-
tendent can claim anyportion of that
money 1 do not understand.
In regard to the inquiry about
making up deficiency for teachers
wages "from the district funds the
next year following" l do not quite
understand what is meant. If the
tax was levied out not yet Collected
then undoubtedly when it is collect
ed it will be available for that pur-
pose; but if they fail to make the
levy, or did not make sufficient levy,
my opinion would be that the only
way in which the deficiency could
be met, would be when there would
be surplus from any cause in the
school fund of that district The
county treasurer should undoubtedly
keep the county superintendent in
formed when requested so to do, of
the amount of money on hand, but
this is matter of official courtesy,
and not required by law.
