WANTS COMPULSORY EDUCATION
iowa State Federation OF Women'a
Clubs Urges Its Need.


Sioux City, Nov. 1s.-The Iowa State
Federation of Women's Clubs has be.
gun an energetic campaign to secure
the adoption of a compulsory education
law. A special committee, consisting OF
Mrs. g. A. Sammis, LeMars; Mrs. Mil
ton Remley, Iowa City, wife of the at
torney general, and Mrs. Lymna Hurd-
Dubuque, has drafted petition setting
forth that under the laws for the diffu-
sion of knowledge among the masses
as necessity to good government and
the happiness of mankind, the people
pay more taxes to maintain the COM
mon school system than all other taxes
combined, that these taxes amount in
the aggregate to $s,O0o,0oO per annum,
and that the burden is cheerfully borne
to secure good citizenship, but that
many parents do not send their chill
dren to school for sufficient length
of time to obtain proper common
school education. Therefore, ii is
prayed that law be enacted requiring
parents and guardians to send children
between the ages of seven and fourteen
years to some private, public, or paro-
chial school, in the country districts,
not less than six consecutive weeks in
each year, with provisions for proper
enforcement and proper exemptions for
physical disability. The committee is
securing the signatures of the promi-
nent teachers and superintendent, and
principals to this petition.

THE VALUE OF COOP BLOOD.

There has never been a time before
when the value of good blood in the
herd of cattle was SO manifest as now.
The sales Of beef animals in the mar
kets day by day show that good blood is
worth to the raiser of the stock not less
than So per cwt. on every animal fat
ted and sold. For the choicest animals
which touch the top Of the market it
Is still more. This fact has been much
more quickly recognized by the range
men who raise cattle on the worthless
land of the plains than it has been by
the farmer who is raising cattle on
land worth from $40 to $50 per acre.
This latter class some way are afraid
to pay 500 or SIPS for registered sire
and breed to grades and get scrubs,
while the range men will pay almost
any price for the best bred sires to be
had. This man. on the $50 farm wants
to get this fact clear in his mind: That
1t costs no more to feed and raise a
good animal than it does poor one
and that the difference in the selling
price of ten calves at years old will
pay for us fine bull as he needs. In
the main the cattle of northern Iowa
and southern Minnesota IRE Of Jacobs
sort--the ring streaked and speckled
variety-not worth half as much ut Ell
ther the pail or the block as well bred
anirn;.:'. and cost just us much to
raise ;;5 the better sort.

THE FLAX cRop.

The 1899 aax crop through the north
western stases is the largest one ever
grown-a record breaker. Many a man
who bought wild land and broke 1t up
in June, sowing 1t to fax, has been
able to more than half pay for his
land. This crop, to greater extent
than any other, is a developer Of
frontier farm lands. While specially
suited to pioneer agricultural condi-
tons, it should but rarely find place
on the well improved farm. A rich
piece of old pasture land which for
any reason cannot be planted to corn
or a piece of rough and tough sod
which 1t is necessary to subdue is
about the only place upon which 1t
will pay to SOW fax in the older set
tied portions Of the country. The
landlord should look out for the tenant
who wants to sow fax, as it takes the
very life out Of the soil to a greater
extent than does any other crop. \

CREATING WEALTH.

The primary sources of nations
wealth IRE its natural resources-the
timber of its forests, the fish of its
seas, lakes and rivers, the minerals
buried in Its hills, the elements OF fer
tility locked up in its soil. Just us man
develops these natural resources he
creates wealth. The stick of timber,
the can of salmon, the ton of coal and
the bushel of corn as produced by man
are each original and created wealth.
The man who buys and sells the tim
Der, the fish, the coal and the corn
creates no wealth, but he who fash
ions the timber into a house or burns
the coal to drive the engine of some
factory or produces from the corn a
variety of other products is wealth
producer. Only as man by his labor
gives an added value to some natural
product can he be termed a wealth
producer. .,....,
