the Plumstead board school for nine
years without being absent OF late for

our public school will open as soon
as teachers can be employed. If
three ffths of the voters voting do
pot mark their tickets as indicated
above, our public school will have
to be run on private subscription
six months each year until the
county treasurer has collected over
$1S,93O, which is the amount of
legalized Indebtedness against the
district at this time in excess of the
Il per cent. of assessed valuation of
the district for 1895.
This amount, $18,930, does not
include the $17,761,97 in warrants
which it is proposed to validate, and
must be in the hands of the county
treasurer before the board OF direc-
tors can issue another legal warrant
against the district. At the pres
ent rate of income it will take the
treasurer about three years to col
lect $18,930 and at the same time
keep interest on outstanding bonds
paid up and should the district fail
to have six months school in any
one year it would lose all of its
rights to state and county appor-
tiOnment, which is the main income
to the district.
Few people realize the effort that
would be necessary to. raise money
enough to run the school on sub
scription for six months each year
for a period of three years, or even
for one year.
After teaching three months for
worthless warrants, last January
the teachers very kindly consented
to teach the remainder of the term
for thirty dollars cash per month.
The citizens subscribed very lib
orally, many of them in fact giving
much more than they could really
afford, yet there are some of the
teachers who have not received their
full pay; at the same time there re-
mains about three hundred dollars
of the subscriptions promised, un-
collected, although there has not
been a stone left unturned to collect
the same. Taking these facts into
consideration, also that the teachers
cannot be employed again for $50
per month, it seems useless to think
of running the school on subscrip-
ton.
Further, | NAV say that the board
of directors have been studying the
school question carefully for the
past eight months and have done
what they truly believe to be for
the best interest of the district, and
now place the subject in the hands
of the voters for their approval or
disapproval.

OUTLOOK FOR WHEAT.

The United States department Of
agriculture, says the PostIntelli-
gencer, has just issued circular in
which this statement by New York
paper is quoted approvingly: "The
American sarmer might as well un-
derstand that wheat is going to re-
main cheap. An occasional scar
city will run up prices, but there is
too much good wheat land in Rus
STA, Siberia, Argentina and Austral-
asia for the price to remain high
long"
The price of wheat in Chicago is
about 7 cents higher than the low
est point reached in the past month.
Farmers are Withholding wheat
fgom the market, in the East as
we'll as in Oregon and Washington,
and have stopped the fall of prices.
Europe has begun to buy, too, and
it is thought the price can be held
steady at about 60 cents in Chicago.
But at this price, which is / cents
above low water mark, wheat is not
a profitable crop.
Wheat at 60 cents in Chicago
and 80 cents on the Eastern Wash
ington farm is not going to make
the farmer rich. But the outlook
is not good for SO high a price next
year. The Argentine crop this year
failed. Next year-the harvest Is
reaped in January-the yield will
be large. But Argentine is a small
producer, after all, compared with
the United States, and the farmers
of the South American country are
already looking to corn and cattle
as more profitable than wheat. The
great wheat producer of the world,
ranking even above the United
States, is Russia, and the area of
wheat land in Siberia yet to be put
under the pillow is enormous. We
think of Siberia as a vast frozen
desert; we have read "Michael Stro-
gotf" and heard George KEENAN,
lecture. Archibald Cary Coolidge,
writing from Tomsk, describes the
Siberian steppes as "prairie with
patches of woods, good soil, and ev-
identity great possibilities of develop-
ment." The agent of the McCor-
mick Harvester Company, now in
Russia, waites the secretary of ag-
riculture that he has seen seventy
five to 100 bushels of wheat to the
acre threshed out there.
1t will be asked, why is Siberia
more threatening to the wheat
grower now than twenty years ago,
and why did not Russia go into the
wheat business when the price of
the cereal was high? The answer
is that the Russian government has
been compelled, by the rise of Japan
as first-class power, to open a
highway from st. Petersburg to the
Pacific ocean, in order to keep what
territory she has and to prevent
Japan from obtaining supremacy
in Asia. A great railroad is being
built straight across Siberia, work
having been pressed with all the
energy of a great nation whose re-
sources are boundless. The road
is now in operation for $500 miles
reaching east from European Rus
STA, and the whole line, more than
5000 miles long, is to be completed
within three years. Then troops
from st. Petersburg can be placed
