SAN JUAN VALLEY.


After reading the many pessimistic
views expressed in the newspapers OF
the territory reiatIye TO the drouth
situation il is refreshing to meet up
with an optimist Ike Col. d. X. b
Sellers, who has just returned to Al
h querque from a trip OF almost l00t
miles ON horseback through north
western New Mexico. Colonel Sellers
doubtless visited the most fayorea
section OF the territory Juan
and Rio Arriba counties. but il will
be good news TO the people of Other
parts OF the territory 10 know tina,
there are sections OF it that are not
suffering for want Of water.
Colonel Sellers states that all the
crops in the san Juan county are
looking fine ahd that the production
of alfalfa w4l be fully 80, 1000 tons.
In addition to The new crop there are
perhaps 10000 tons Of last years crop
still ON hand. The ranges are in
fine condition and the cattle and
sheep are in first class shape. San
Juan county has about 20A0 head Oi
cattle and $1,000 head Of sheep.
Colonel Sellers says that the county
this year could easily support 10000
head in addition TO the sheep now on
hand as there Is a big section Of the
range extending about ten miles south
of the San Juan river where the grass
is fine and which Is not occupied.
The fruit crop OF San Juan county
bids fair to be a record-breaker this
seasou. The backward spring has
Kept the trees from blossoming early
and unless late freeze should come
an unprecedented crop is predicted.
There is heavy ice and snow on the
western side Of the Continental divide
and this iusures sufficient water foI
irrigation along the San Juan and
other Colorado river tributaries for
months to come.-The Industrial Ad

MEN WHO FIGHT FRUIT PESTS.

QUiNCEY, HIS, May ITO The
1ditor; During The past year or two
my observations ol the work OF the
5ta,e deputy entomoligists have been
5onfned chiefly to Adams county and
vicinity and I have been surprised in
seeing the extent oil the work aud its
attendant expenses that had been Civ
IN by the state for the preservation
and betierment OF fruit trees in this
section oi country; and il should be
regretted that the fruit growers are
not more ready to fall in line and give
cordial support for The especial sery-
ices rendered ior their benefit.

HOW TO IMPROVE PUBLIC
SCHOOL GYMNASTICS
By THOMAS D. WOOD

"a HE conditions which will insure M
proyement in the gymnastics Of
U the public schools are related in
practice. Of course, to change in
matter and method of gymnastic instrue-
ton. Those who discuss this III estion
would find it as difficult perhaps to aefee
with reference to modification.
School gymnastics should, il the term
may be used in this way, be more phy'o-
gentle in character and progression than
they are at present, /. e., they should
correspond more closely to the motor
activities which enabled our ancestors,
amphibious and otherwise, from the more
remote times to the more recent. to live
successfully. The study Of organic evolu-
ton and Of the life history and motor
habits Of animals and men at different
stages of development, will give the slew
to the types and the sequence of move
ments and exercise which are best adapt
ed to the different stages of the develop
ment of the child.
: Closely related to this are changes that
may advantageously come in the sub
jective attitude and conscious interest in
the minds of the pupil toward these forms
of neuro muscular activity. This attitude
of mind cannot usually be made as fun
damental as the movement involved, for
obvious reasons: but there may be a Ger
tain natural interest In the efforts made
as there is at present in other lines of
instruction. The interest and enthusiasm
{nore particularly in the lower grades of
SCHOOL,, in the study or nature, Of history
and of primitive life are of immense value
b. -lesnantarv education The gymnaStic

work may be to a considerable extent,
other subject where modern and vital
methods are used.
Again, 1t is desirable that the pupils
should have explained TO them the pur
pose of gymnastics and the beneficial re-
suits which are sought, in order that they
may cooperate in all possible ways in the
is in gymnastic work and in the general
physical education OF the pupil splendid
chance for the development of individual
Initiative, sef-control, leadership and
other social and moral qualities for the
exercise of which the school too often
gives little opportunity of definite kind.
These may be provided through the fullest
possible participation by the pupils of
different ages in the selection and organ
ization of exercise ana games and in def
mite plans Of assistance in the conduct Of
classes.
The play of recess periods and the out
door exercise should be improved for the
most part by the wise suggestion of ma
sterials and how they may be used without
iessening in any way, but rather increas-
ing the joy in and enthusiasm for sponta
neous activity.
It is desirable for the corrective and
antidotai effect of gymnastics in the
schooroem which should not only eoun-
teract unhygienic tendencies, but improve
the quality Of all school work and make
for better economy of time and energy
that a few vigorous setting UP exercises
with deep breathing movements should
be given several times a day between class

periods and especially after work which
has required close sustained attention,
muscular inaction and cramped positions
of the body.
More important even for the improve
ment of gymnastics in the schools are the
better preparation and training of the gen.
eral and special teachers who give the in
structien in this line.
1t is essential that the general grade
teachers who must give most of the GYM
nastic instructions in the elementary
schools should understand the larger as
poets and relations of physical education
and have background of general and
scientific education, which is so important;
the technical training and experience
which is, of course essential, and de-.
votion to the professional work and the
human service accomplished through it
which will inspire their students and the
teachers under their supervision to do all
which wisdom and judgment indicate as
worth the doing.
1t is desirable finally. il the work OF
physical education is to be effective and
is to have the recognition, dignity and In
f1uence which it should possess, that this
gymnastic training should be made a fac
tor in larger department of education
which shall be concerned with all the
health interests OF school life.
We can call this larger field physical
education and school hygiene, and 1T
should include the investigation of the
the supervision of the active and passive
environment of school which so vitality
affects health the direction Of the motor
activities involved in physical education
and the instruction Of pupils in health and
hyeiene.
