T y address before Teachers Conference held
4 in New York State, Prof DeGarmo OF
Cornell University, made the following State
mCntS:
"If the public schools of the country are
to be maintained at their present high
standard, the prevailing vital defect of
women holding nearly every teachers
position must he remedled even if it is
necessary for the National Government
to interfere and compel the school boards
of cities and towns to appoint proper
tOm of male teachers to compel the
men teachers to undergo proper prepara-
tiOn and sricter examinations ana to
maintain adequate salaries Tn"
trance of women into the profc sion has
put salaries slow that no sclf-rcspect-
ing man Will attempt to found or pre-
serve a family ON the pittance he re-
ceiVCS.'
This statement is remarkable as cmanatiug
from so intelligent a man as the eminent Pro-
ic,>or flour school system lackSaught, it :
moro, not less womanly Influence injected into
its methods. Not only in school teaching, but
in school government. An equal representation
of men and women ON our school boards; our
school economy demands the mother element in
conjunction with the tathcrhood too preponderant
at present in our local boards of control.
1t is not clear upon what basis the Professor
arrives at his premise that men are better pre-
pared for teaching. Statistics show more girls
than boys graduated from our public schools. In
Pennsylvania the proportion is two to one. The
report of the National Commissioner of Educa
ton gives 1861 males and 1867 females who are
students in Pedagogy in Co-educational Institu-
tons In Pennsylvania Normal Schools, the list
of graduates who intend to teach number 977
females and 547 males Other states about the
same proportion.

of the debaters asserted that during the
last session of congress a law providing
for the election of senators by the peo-
pie had passed the House of Represen-
tatives and been defeated by the Senate.
He was quite certain of it. Evidently
that debater had never read the Consti-
tuition! [See Article L, Section 3.
Thus it occurred to The CoNsERv-
ATIvE that instead of pupils of the
high school travelling from one town to
another for the purpose of debating
questions which have for generations
puzzled the experienced minds Of
statesmen Oh both sides of the Atlantic,
they had better be studiously at work
endeavoring to master arithmetic, geo.

THE TWO MONKS.
by A. A. Bragdon.]

A worthy monk, as ancient legends say,
Planted, with care, a tender tree one day,
Thinking with Joy how it would grow anon.
And yield him profit from the fruit thereon.
Pleased with his task, upon the spot he bowed,
And to himself with pious pride he vowed:
Nov 1 will pray each day, and God will give
Whateer ask to make the sapling live"
And to his credit be it written now,
Not even once did he forget his vow,
But morn and eve he came to view the tree
And asked for what he saw it's needs to be-
He prayed for rain and gentle showers fell;
He prayed for sun, and sunshine came as well ;
And when he asked for dew there came the dew
For winds to blow then grateful breezes blew
For storm to strengthen, or for heat or cold
Whate'er he craved, not once did God withhold ;
And yet in vain the selfish plan he tried
For all his prayers the sapling drooped and died.
Another monk his tree had planted, too,
And day by day it's spreading branches grew
Above the way, to shelter as they pass
Gods weary children going up to mass;
And travellers oft aside their burdens laid,
Sat there and rested in it's peaceful shade.
One day they met among the shadows there.
Just as the convent bell had called to prayer.
"Now tell me, Brother John," the first monk
said,
"Why your tree thrives, while mine, alas! is
dead?
pruned it well and tended it with care,
And twice each each day I told its needs in
prayer"
The other monk in meekness bowed his head,
While with sweet humility he said:
my simple mind could not presume to know
Just what was best to make sapling grow,
And so 1 put it in Gods care, and left the rest
To Him who made the tree, and knows the best
I never asked for sun rain or frost,
only prayed: Give what it needeth most {"

TREE GROWTH IN NEBRASKA.

The Division of Forestry of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture has decided
to make thorough examination, during
the coming summer, of tree growth
in the State of Nebraska. The object Of
this examination is to determine if for
est production on large scale is posi-
BILE in this region. Throughout the
greater part Of Nebraska there is but a
sparse timber growth, while portions of
the state are practically treeless. From
the results of the proposed investiga-
tions the Division of Forestry hopes to
devise means for improving and extend
ing the present forest growth, and, in
the case of the treeless regions, to for
mulate plan of tree planting whereby
the waste lands may be reclaimed The
best methods Of tree culture will be
considered and careful study will be
made of climate, soil, and the natural
enemies of trees in this region.
For several years past the Division Of
Forestry, through it's section of tree
planting, has been investigating the
forest growth in several of the middle
western states. The agents selected
for the work to be done in Nebraska
this summer are men who have prac-
tical knowledge of the existing condi-
tions, and are well fitted for the task of
making an exhaustive study of tie re-
gion. The results obtained from this
tour of investigation will be of value to
several of the neighboring states, for in
Kansas, South Dakota, and portions of
eastern Colorado and Wyoming much
the same conditions exist.
The valley of the Platte river, from
Plattsmouth to Kearney, and the entire
western half of the state, will constitute
the field of investigation. About May
l., two representatives of the Division
will begin work at Plattsmouth and GO
up the river examining and classifying
the growth of trees. Especial attention
will be paid to the distribution OF
species, and to all efforts to cultivate
considerable bodies of timber. In the
The Conservative, 1901-04-11

ments the failures as well as the sue
cesses will be noted, for it is desirable to
obtain all possible information on the
subject.
1t is expected that Kearney will be
reached before July 1. At this point
the party will be increased to six men,
bers and will be equipped with COM
plete camp outfit and saddle horses.
The following four months will be
spent in work that will practically
cover the western half of the state.
The line of travel will be from Kearney
to the western boundary of the state,
along the Platte, thence northeast to
Crawford, and then in general south
easterly direction through the sand
hills, and down the Middle Loup River
to Loup City.
A wide strip of territory can be
studied on each side of the route, as
the party will be mounted, and particu-
lar attention is to be given to the dis
tribution and reproduction of the yellow
pine. Nebraska is the meeting ground
of the plains and mountain foras, and
for this reason much valuable and inter-
esting information is likely to be OBJ
tanned. Cooperation by the people along
the route to be taken by the government
party will greatly facilitate the work.
The Division of Forestry has received
sufficient encouragement from work
already done in Nebraska to warrant
the thorough examination that is to be
made this summer. The fact that many
tree growers in the state are already
realizing substantial profits from planted
timber is noteworthy. A number Of
men who have had wide experience in
dealing with the problem of forestry in
Nebraska have written to the Division of
Forestry stating that there is no doubt
in their minds of the possibility of in
creasing the present scant growth OF
trees, and agreeing that even the sand
hills can be forested. Among those who
have expressed such an opinion are Ex-
Secretary of Agriculture, j. Sterling
IOl. OIlulloo II. bCoSCJ VI CliC
University of Nebraska; G. S. Harrison,
President of the Nebraska Park and
Forest Association; and E. F. Stephens.
The rapid spread of interest in forestry
will soon bring landowners to realize
that timber may be considered as truly
an agricultural crop as wheat or corn.
With the Division of Forestry investi-
eating the best methods of tree culture
and Offering it's advice and assistance to
landowners interested in ee-planting,
there is reason to believe that in the
near future much headway will be made
in bringing about reasonable forest
growth on lands now almost treeless.

ALL HONOR TO PARSLEY.
Curious Folklore and History Concerning
This Common Herb.

Curious Folklore and History Concerning
This Common Herb.
Some quaint ideas have lowered
around that familiar garden herb and
dish adorner, parsley. In England,
Devonshire folk declare that parsley
must never be transplanted or great
evil will follow. Suffolk people say it
will not come up double unless sown
on Good F1iday-a notion that expert
ments might surely soon have dis
proved-while dwellers in Hampshire
steadfastly refuse to give any parsley
away. Ask them for roses. lilies, fruit
or rare vegetables, and basketfuls. will
be gladly bestowed on you, but request
q few sprigs of parsley and you will
be told, with a solemn shaking of
heads, "No, we never pick parsley for
anyone, unless it's paid for!"
The great historian Plutarch relates
an interesting anecdote on the subject
of this herb. Timoleon was leading an
army against the Carthagnians. "But,
as he was ascending q hill from the
top Of which the enemy's camp and
all their vast forces would be in sight
he met some mules laden with parsley;
and his men took it into their heads
that 1t was bad omen because we
usually crown the sepulcher with
parsley, and thence comes the proverb
with regard to one that is dangerously
i'll. Such one has need Of nothing
but parsley To deliver them from
this superstition and to remove the
panic Timoleon ordered the troops to
halt, and making a speech suitable to
the occasion observed among other
things that crowns were brought them
before the victory, and offered them
selves Of their own accord. For the
Corinthians from all antiquity have
looked upon wreath of parsley as
sacred, crowning the victors with 1t at
the 1sthmian games." The general
then crowned himself and all his Off
GERS with parsley wreaths, and led
his men to battle, their fears con-
quered; the result being a decisive
victory.
