less People Are in Favor
Of Il.

The county commissioners will place
the scheme of building a sample stretch
of road before the council and the
Walla Walla Commercial club. The
experiment will be quite expensive and
they wish to get the opinion of the
taxpayers before they taken any def

peoples views" said Ed Cornwell
chairman of the board. He also reit-
Grated his idea expressed in the meet
ing yesterday, that for schooling pur-
poses half mile would be just as
good as mile and not so expensive.
Before any action is taken however,
the board will await the written COM
munication from J. w. Abbott, the
government road expert, stating form
ally just what the government will do.
The government has offered to fur
nlSh the expert, man to run the roller
and a man to run the crusher and one
to superintend the construction. but
the county will have to furnish all 9TH

Health Regulations.
DR.. j. w. Ingram, the new health
officer, appeared before the council
and made some very valuable sugges-
tons tending to make an improve
ment in the health department Of the
city. He advised that the hitching
rack near the corner of Colville and
Spokane streets be removed unless the
ground where many horses were being
continuously hitched was kept in a
more sanitary condition. He made
complaint at the practice of the jani-
tors of the stores and other places of
business in emptying spittoons into the
cutters and throwing trash and waste
paper on the streets. He suggested
that each merchant be compelled to
provide a large galvanized iron tank
in which to dump trash and refuse.
He also advised that the city Scaven-
gers do their work at night, which he
said would be great deal better for
the health of the city. The health
officer was told to go on with his i'm
health committee would back him up
in anything he did.
The council then adjourned to meet
next Tuesday night.

SCHOOL FOUNDATION IN WALKS
OF LIFE.
Home, State and Church.

DR.. James M. Green, principal of the
State schools, Trenton, addressed a plat
form service held in the Clinton
Avenue Baptist Church, Trenton, last Sum
day evening in the interest Of the public
schools Of the city.
The meeting was held in recognition of
the opening of the schools, and the subject
was "Our Public Schools He said -:
THE great and uniform interest taken
in our public school system speaks well
for the future of the country. The rela-
tion between the school and the home is
two-fold organic and social
The first thing to consider in the or
ganic relation is that the parent has no
direct authority in the affairs Of the school.
Only through the board of school trustees
can the parent have a say in school matters.
This makes it plain that cooperation is the
most important thing in this relation.
s'1'he social side presents mutual reIa-
tion of school and parent. Aside from
ohNAA WIN VIC oChOOlc
teach loyalty to the home and parent.
This is true in a greater measure than is
supposed. On the part of the parent there
should be warm reciprocaton Parents
should visit the schools more, using the
proper care and tact in the visits. Parents
meetings are valuable in bringing about a
greater spirit of cooperation.
ssThe common prevailing opinion Of the
schools is often far from the true purpose,
and this will be overcome by these meet
ings and by other ways of cooperation.
The true public school has its foundation
in the common walks of life, and teaches
the pupils to meet them better In this
life the parents should cooperate also
In the home the most loyal support
should always be given the work of the
schools. Parents should establish regular
hours Of study and not allow anything to
infring on them. The child must be made
to understand that the parents heart is
with him in his school work Z

Parry and Albertson's Fruit Farm.

Isaac Jones on the farm Of Parry & Al
bertson at Paradise, has the second largest
fruit farm in Gloucester county. At pres
ent he las $500 baskets of hand picked
Keller pears covered with hay under a
she'd The pears were picked the 18th of
last month to Tighten the trees which are
now heavily freighted. Mr.. Jones esti-
mates that there are now $4,000 baskets of
Keifers on the 5000 trees. The pears
which are picked are piled two feet deep
and are covered with about two feet Of hay
until they ripen when they are shipped to
market by boats. One novelty of the farm
is the Russett pear 1t looks much like
the Russett apple but it has very long
stem. The pear is used entirely for pre-
serving as it is too coarse and tart for eat
ing. Mr.. Jones uses crude pretoleum oil
for the San Jose scale either pure or diluted
one-half, one-third or to any proportion
which the condition seems to warrant.
There is not so many apples or other va
riety on the farm as those Of Keifers.
About 200 baskets of Bartlett, 200 baskets
of Dutchess and 500 baskets Of Russett
pears have been harvested.
