The cost of the public schools Of
greater New York for the year 1901
will be S17,710,07S. The number of
pupils in the schools is estimated at
40S,112. So that the average cost for
each pupil is s43.39. In 1890 there
were 2S0,931 pupils, the total cost was
S6,000,639, and the average cost per
pupil was $259S. The expense of the
public schools has, therefore, nearly
tripled in ten years, while the aver
age cost per pupil is nearly SIS q year
more. This increase is partly due to
the municipal consolidation and part
ly TO the Davis law, which has in,
creased the average salaries.

Rover never was happier than when
he could carry bundle; but this was
such an unexpected privilege that for
q second or two the flagstaff veered
like weather-vane with each delight

seeing his masters motionless attitude,
Rover took pattern; and as the little
company of veterans drew near, the
color-bearer and his master attracted
instant attention.
Every man in Company G loved Ray

for he was a bright and lovable boy,
and also for the sake of the brave COM

Raymond had Just been over to the
hall with his basket of flowers, mostly,
from he woods and fields.
Decoration day always found him on
hand; and although his contribution
was simple, he was glad to be able
to do even a little toward furnishing
material for this touching memorial
service.
Raymond was the grandson of vet
eran of the civil war, and this year he
wanted to do something more than
usual, to let the old friends OF the
grandfather =. whom he had never
known understand his loyalty, both to
his grandfather's memory and the
country that he had died for.
Suddenly he remembered an old tat
tered flag that stood in q corner in
the attic, and beside it a musket,
rusty and time-stained. Then he
locked at Rover.
Can you do it, Rover?" Raymonds
eyes asked the question. The soft
brown eyes of the dog answered, Try
me-"
All IlBHl, nONeI, VIII.
Rover's tail ceased its impatient tat
too upon the floor, and with yelp of
delight he followed his master up the
attic stairs. Half an hour later the
boy and the dog sat side by side upon
the doorstep The boy held a fiat
piece Of wood in one hand, and his
jack-knife in the other. Occasionally
he lifted faded flag, and slipped the
end Of the worn stick through hole
which he was whiting in the new
piece of wood.
At last he sprang to his feet, say
ing, "All ready now, Rover Do you
think you can hold that in your
MOUTH"
Rovers' eyes said, "Of course 1

thumps. Good, faithful Rover! Ray

The Hessian fly probably ranks next
to the chinch bug as a farm pest in
the United States, and its ravages in
other countries have long been known
and appreciated. While its first scien-
tifc description was by Thomas Say
in 1917, it had been for many years
recognized as a pest in wheat and had
received in this country the popular
name of Hessian fly in the belief that
IL had been introduced by Hessian sol
diers during the war of the revolu-
ton.
