Extracts from Commissioner
rloore's Report May Ist.

In this State the wheat condition
May 1st is so, which is an improve
ment of 3 points since April LIST.
The condition on May LIST, as re-
ported in former years, was as fol-
lows 1898, 101; 1897, 95; 1885,. "A.
The seasonable weather the latter
half of April has produced a rapid
growth, but there is some complaint
that the plant is. not starting. well.
and that it will not be sufficient tc
cover the ground. The improve.
ment is confined only to early and
medium late wheat, the extreme
late being generally reported
worthless. Spots in fields WHARF,
the snow was. blown off still show
the effects of the exposure, and it
lis highly probable that these spots
will remain bare to the end. 1t is
estimated that Z per cent. of the
acreage Will be plowed up.
Corn planting made coDsidera-
BILE progress during the month, and
while there yet remains much

gan as early as the middle OF the
month The early planted came up
quickly and is growing rapidly.
No complaint is, made Of injury from
cut worms or other insects. The
ground dried very rapidly during
the latter days of the month, and
some difficulty is experienced in
getting the ground in good condi-
ton for planting.

KENTUCKY STATE TEACHERS READ
ING CIRCLE.
To promote professional train
ing and to unite the teachers of the
State in a common course of in
struction, the State Board of Ex-
aminers has adopted under the fol-
lowing regulations the course here
set forth.
1t is the sense of this board that
the course should be graded one
and should cover more than one
years work, and that the work for
each year should be definitely
planned with that in view. In &C
cordance with the above we have
adopted for the year 1889 Pages
Theory and Practice of Teachers
a general work on pedagogy, and
''Ouick's Educational Reformers,
a history of education.
On account of the significance of
the history we are now making, the
changes in geography consequent
and the influence of both
upon our policy and civil govern
nent, we would urge each teacher
o read some educational journal
reating these subjects fully and
ably.
To encourage teachers to take the
work of the Reading Circle and to
cad at least one good educational
ournal, we have determined that
or the teachers examinations for
800, 80 to 90 per cent. of the ques-
ions on theory and practice shall
'e taken from the two books of the
eading circle course and that 20 to
0 per cent. of the questions on
geography, history and civil gov
shall be taken from the
urrent events of 1898 and 1899.

Superintendent of Schools, request.
us to call attention to the following
letter:
Frankfort, Ky.
LADIES AND CENT EMEN:-
We are led to address you again
on the subject by the fact that in
formation reaches us from number
of sources that in some counties of
the State no effort was made last
summer to organize Teachers Read
ing Circles,
As was seen from the following
circular, copies of which were furn-
ished You early in this scholastic
year, the State Board of Examln-
ers, as an inducement to the teach
ers and others who were preparing
to teach to take the Course, prom
Ised so to frame 80 to 90 per cent.
of the questions on Theory and
Practice" for the eXamin atoms to
be held this calendar year as to
call for answers from the two pro-
tesSional works named in the
Course, while current events, as af-
fecting the history and civil govern
ment OF this country and geography
in general, were to make 20 to so
per cent. of the questions on those
subjects.
This plan was thought preferable
to offering specific credits to men,
bers who should take the work, in
that the applicant profits in the ex-
animation only in the branches in
cluded in the Course, and then only |
in proportion as the work has been |
thoroughly and faithfully done.
While the board must keep faith
with members of the Reading Circle
by complying with its promise in
the makeup of the examination
questions, il Is due all applicants
to be informed as to this feature OF
the examinations. We knew of no
better or more practical way to |
reach them than through you, and
trust that every teacher in this
State, and especially every one
who expects to take the examina-
ton this year, has had an oppor-
tunity to prepare for it along these
lines. Otherwise the questions on
these particular subjects may prove
to be not only stumbling-block to
the applicants, but a matter OF Sc
rious embarrassment to county
boards of examiners as well.
County boards can not permit ap-
plicants who fail in these subjects
to pass without doing violence to
their consciences and to their OH
cial oaths, and, at the same time,
common fairness would demand that
all applicants should have had am
pie warning on the subjects.
The books prescribed for the cir
Gle NAV be had for a mere trltie,
and we sincerely trust that the
teachers of the State, better to pre-
pare themselves, rot only for the
examinations, but for their pro-
fession. have taken advantage of
the work suggested.

The mail order business out of Globe is losing ground, judging from the varied stocks carried by our merchants. It is not necessary for any one to send away for anything, as goods of all kinds can be obtained here at reason able prices, and the buyer has the advantage of selecting the goods. Never in the history of Globe have the stores presented such n metropoll- tan appearance. They deserve the patronage of the people, and the BEL1 suggests that holiday buyers investi- gate the stocks at home before send ing abroad.
