May is not to be in excess of May in 1900 in
some lines. Prices are we'll sustained in nearly
all lines. Canned goods and dried fruits are
moving slowly and prices are weak but other
lines handled by the grocers rule firm. Pro-
visions are moving quite well in a domestic
way, and prices steady at recent reductions.
Poultry is in good request at unchanged prices.

tend school. This would tend to keep
the boys and girls on the farm instead
Of encouraging them to leave it and go
to the towns. This ls one of the main
purposes of the system.
12. 1t will improve the farm sur
roundings and add attractions to coun-
try life by stimulating a desire to know
about the works of nature. Col. F. w.
Parker has pointed out the wonderful
opportunities for elementary education
to the child Lying on farm.
ID. In the central school there would
be opportunity for the study of:special
branches which cannot be offered in the
d istrict school'because the teacher lacks
either the. time or. the ability to teach
them.
IA. In short, and to sum up, the
opinion of the county superintendents
is almost unanimous to the effect that
the consolidation of small schools and
the transportation of the pupils to a
central school al the expense of the
di strict would result in better schools
at less or no greater expense.

The report does not seek to present
merely the favorable side of this prob
lem, but also Of the objections that have
been made to the plan of consolidating
and transporting the pupils to central
school. The objections, no matter how
trivial, have been given in detail in
every county.
Briefly summarized, the advantages
claimed for the system by the county
superintendents, 95 per cent of whom
favor the plan, are as follows:
1. 1t will secure better teachers.
2. 1t will reduce the per capita cost
of education in the district affected in
nearly every case and without excep-
ton after the first cost of buildings,
where buildings are required, have been
paid.
8. 1t will insure better classification
of pupils, SO that both teacher and pu-
pills may spend their time to better ad-
vantage.
4. Larger classes may stimulate COM
petition and better effort and greater in.
terest and enthusiasm among the pu-
pills.
5. Supervision will be more thorough
and more easily accomplished by the
County Observation-Disclosures by the prin;
cipal of the township or central school,
where it is large enough to require
principal and assistant teachers. Ger
tainly the county superintendent can
give better attention to the schools if
the number ir reduced.
6. The attendance would be larger
as experience has shown.
Z. Greater punctuality would be Sc.
cured, as the children would all be
brought to school before O'Clock in the
morning.
8. Consolidation would provide bet
ter buildings and more apparatus and
libraries without additional expense.
8. Longer and mo1e regular terms of
school would be the result of uniting the
forces of several small districts into one
strong central school which could be
kept running eight or nine months in a
year.
TO- The health Of the children would
be better guarded whore they are con-
yeyed from their domestic the school in
comfortable vehicles than where they
have to travel through mud and snow
for mile or 30 to the school, as they
often do under the present system.
/ IL. The older children would be kept
at home and in school longer than they
can be at present, because the centra
school could provide advanced courses
of study under capable teacher. Sc
the necessity Of going to town to schoo
would be put of several years. The
course of study would be so arranged a!
to accommodate these older pupils al
such time as they can be spared to at

FOR CONSOLIDATION.
What State Superlntendent's Re-
port Says Regarding
this Subject.

Des Moines, Iowa. Nov. Pin the
forthcoming biennial report of the sup
erintendent of public instruction chap.
ter will be devoted to consolidation and
transportation of pupils. The report
on this particular phazc of public school
work will be very complete. 1t will
show the lively discussion all over the
state, and that many experiments have
been and are being made with the pros
pect that in many other places the sys-
TEN will be put on trial.
The report says: Consolidation has
heen tried in 2S counties, transporta.
ton in 55 and both in 49, Consolida-
: rrpp has been adopted by 63 districts
and so districts have transported pupils
at the expense Of the district. In nine
counties districts Swere consolidated
without providing transportation at the
expense of the districts. In sixteen
counties pupils have been transported
where there had besn no consolidation.
The replies to the qusstion-as to what
the sentiment in the counties is toward
consolidation and transportation may
be classified as follows: Favorable, rs;
opposed, 2e; divided, u; partly favora-
BILE, 4; unsettled, 5; growing in favor, %,
Where the system has been tried and
the result reported, it produced good
effects in 81 counties, while in it was
doubtful. The patrons in 20 counties
are reported to be we'll satisfied while in
eight counties there was some dissatis-
faction, owing to bad roads.
These statistics do not include any es-
Inmates, or doubtful reports, such as
"several" schools consolidated or cases
of transporting pupils; all the reports
not distinctly favorable to the system
have been classified as doubtful, divided
or opposed to it.
In addition to the foregoing, trans
portation has been tried in a number O.
the city districts with great success. Al
Council Bluffs there has been an actua
saying of $50 per month besides th'
time Of the supervisors. Supt. Clifford
Of the city schools says: "The plan il
giving excellent satisfaction to patrons
! and the school officers are much pleases
with the marked improvement of tb'
children in scholarship"
At Sioux City three wagons were EN-
ployed for the school year, and thre'
schools were closed. About 125 pupil
were transported; so in wagons and Z!
by street car lines. The report will
show that So, 1885, 16 was economical in
single year in Sioux City alone, while a
the same time The children received bet
ter educational advantages.
