INSPECTOR IN WISCONSIN.
Wheat Will Be Examined at La Crosse
by Minnesota Man.
From Wednesdays Daily.

Minnesota wheat will be weighed and
inspected by Minnesota officials at La
Crosse, Wis. A contract to that effect
has been signed by the La Crosse millers
by Railroad Commissioner Staples, and
Minnesota Inspector will be detailed for
La Crosse in few days. The fees for
weighing and inspecting will more than
I pay his way and may be enough to JUS
tify putting in another man so that one
, will do the weighing and another the in
speeding:
The new service was requested by La
Crosse millers, who have been handi-
capped in buying Minnesota wheat be-
cause they could not give it the Mime
sofa inspection. The farmers of this
state prefer to market their wheat where
they can get the standard inspection
guaranteed by Minnesota and in order to
get it the millers of the Wisconsin town
made the necessary arrangements with
this state.
This is an important point scored in
favor of Minnesota inspection, which
has been bitterly fought by certain Wis
consin interests. The attempt was made
last winter in the Wisconsin legislature
to establish Wisconsin inspection, but
it failed, and the La Crosse millers now
indorse Minnesota inspection, which is
also in use at West Superior.-Minne-

The Grade System.

OF late The st. Paul Dispatch has
had considerable to say in opposition to
the system of grading in our public
schools, criticising the system freely
and declaring that it is responsible for
much evil While The Dispatch may
exaggerats the evil, there is nevertheless
truth in the complaint. 1t mechanics
the instruction, narrows the teachers
views, has a tendency to dry up her
sympathies and curbs her enthusiasm.
On the other hand it enables her to con-
serve and concentrate her effort and
gives to the school the effectiveness of
system and uniication. We canont re-
turn to the old manner of the instruc-
ton if we would. Hence the evil must
be faced and apply such remedies as
are within reach. To this end is heard
the increasing cry for departmental
teach certain subjects to pupils of vary
ing ages and grades; with the same
purpose wise superintendent transfer
their teachers to different buildings or
grades every few years. To overcome
the routine effects teachers must at
tend summer school or get away for re-
freshment or change every few years.
The Dispatch in its comment says:
But the great waste of the grade sys-
TEN, one not found in the ungraded
country school, is in what may be called
the waste of the overflow of instruction
In the latter the classes recite and are
instructed in presence of the whole
school. The teaching of the advanced
classes overfiows upon those on lower
forms. 1t familiarizes them with
studies to which they are coming. Con-
sciOusly or not, they absorb much of
the advanced instruction. All teachers
know this; none so well as the country
school teacher. Even where two grades
are in one room the city teacher notes
the benefit of this overflow upon the
lower class when it comes into the high
er class work"
If absorption is education the waste is
acknowledged. If real requirement is
based upon self-activity, then absorp-
ton is harmful. For overflow and alb
sorption there is sacrifice of the zest
that should accompany the study of
new subject when its time comes. En-
thusiasm and interest will die before
the pupil reaches the subject.

WILL RETIRE FROM HOTEL
Henry Zimmerman to Devote lime to
Standard Brewing Co. s Interests.

From Wednesdays Daily.
Henry Zimmerman Jr. is soon to retire
from the hotel business. He has conduct
ed the City Hotel for a number of years,
but his duties in connection with the
Standard Brewing company take up all
of his time. Mr.. Zimmerman has made
the City Hotel one of the most popular
stopping places in southern Minnesota,
and it has been the favorite resort of
the travelling public. Mrs. Zimmerman
has assisted greatly in making the hotel
famous because of the excellent meals
which have always been served.
A brother of Mr. Zimmerman, now liv-
ing in Sioux City, will take charge of
the hotel and there is no doubt but that
he will keep up the good reputation of
the house.

Let Farmers Learn From Manu-
facturerS.

The present seasons dearth of farm
labor seems likely to prove the most en-
barrassing and profitable destroying OF
any known in the history of American
harvests. Kansas alone reports a short
age of over forty thousand in the number
of men needed to save its crops. The
want bids fair to be as keenly and ex-
pensively felt all along the route of the
reaper from Texas to Manitoba.
A Kansas City contemporary declares
that 'sinasmuch as the harvest season
lasts only two or three weeks, there
seems to be no remedy for the annual
shortage of harvest hands. Workingmen
cannot afford to travel long distances
for the sake of getting wages enough
to pay their fare back home" But I'M
less remedy is found, this annual short
age means not only the planting of
smaller acreage than would otherwise
be given to the cereals, but an annual
loss of some portion of the crop actual
ly grown, exorbitantly high wages every
year to field laborers during the harvest,
and a smaller annual income to the farm
er.
1t is suggested that our farmers take
lesson from the managers of our great
manufactures These men have devoted
no little study to the problem of keeping
an adequate force of men always on
hand. so that when there is rush of
business they may not be found unable
to handle it. They do any amount of
work. in dull times, with little or no
profit. Just to keep their hands busy.
They manufacture shiploads of goods for
which no present home market exists and
send them abroad to be sold, often at
bare cost, with the same purpose. Not
one of them likes to see the number of
names Oh his payroll lessened, for every
one knows that at any moment orders
may come that will require every avail
able man to fill. The big profits of the
year as whole may shrink to nothing
ness unless he is willing to work for per-
haps half the time with no profit at all.
Whether such a system can be PARALLEL
in agricultural communities is sugges-
ton which is submitted to the considera-
ton of farmers. Are there any little en-
terprises incident to farming at which
men and women might find employment
at least sufficient to pay wages during
the interval, between the busy days of
planting and harvesting? Perhaps they
may be able to work out some scheme
of cooperation through which the prob
lem may be solved
The suggestion comes from The st.
Paul Pioneer Press, and it is one which
some ingenious farmer should work out.
One obstacle, however, is in the way
the great aversion of men to farm work.
The greater majority of laborers will
remain in the cities and towns, preferring
to work for smaller wages than they
would receive on the farm. Even during
the hard times of 1896 while the farm
ers throughout the entire west were
crying aloud for men to help garner the
crops the cities were filled with idlers.

Burke Cochran might be induced to ac-

and join the forces of the Irish party
in ST. Stephens. I. P. O'Connor made
reference to this possibility recently
when he spoke of an oratorical duel be-

as being one of the things he would
greatly desire to witness. Mr.. Cochran
is said to have practically decided to
renounce his American citizenship and
become a British subject as the FIRST step
toward entering the parliamentary
arena.
