Buffalo has unique system OF pubic
schools. The common council is the board
ef education No one ever seemed to think
there was any need of a separate school
board. The schools receive attention Just
as every other interest OF the municipality
through standing committee. The super.
intendent is elected by the people, generally
from among the principals and he appoints
all the teachers. AS result, the Whole
body of educators. joined happily and sol
idly together, is enthusiastic in promoting
the cause of popular education. Pubic
spirited citizens form committees visit the
schools and advise the superintendent ana
teachers. And this Is the way the schools
have been administered throughout Their
entire history. J. H GILBE3E

in Emmond's House.

Portland, Me-. Nov. 22.-At S.51,
Wednesday morning, the alarm from
box 935 called the Deering firemen to a
lively blaze in the house occupied by
Frank H. Emmonds at 1888 Forest av-
enue. The fire evidently caught around
a defective chimney and when the fire
men arrived the roof was well ablaZe.
Mrs. Annie Jackson, the owner of the
house, is in California for the winter,
but had her goods stored in one of the
upper rooms.
The loss on the house is estimated to
ne from $500 to $4,000 and the insurance
on the house to the amount of $4,000 and
on the furniture, $500, is placed with
the E. C. Jones Co..
The insurance of $500 on the goods of
Mr.. Elnmons is placed with LOring Il
Bishop and the loss is fully $780,.
The house was a small French-rOOfed
structure and has been occupied by the
present tenants about six weeks. The
fire was not discovered until 1t was
we'll under way and being in the walls
MADE g hard job for the firemen and
it was entirely wiped out, nothing but
the four walls remained.

avencv for one Of the greatest discov-
sries OF recent years. We refer to the
prescription of Sir Erasmus Wilson. M.
y. Ensland's most successful special
ist in diseases of the scalp, who was
knightcd for his many successes In the
treatment of skin and scalp. Upon the
death of DR.. Wilson this prescription
was secured by American chemists and
is now offered to the public under the
name of DR.. Wilson's English Life to
the Hair. This preparation will grow
hair on bald heads even after all else
fails. Unlike other hair preparations
II Is not sticky or greasy. but gives a
live and glossy appearance to the hair.
Miss Cornelia Stevens, 6 Smith Ave-.
BOSTON. Mass, says: "Dr. Wilson's
English Life to the Hair grew mag
nfficeat head of hair for me after I
was told that was becoming hopeless

THREE MASS. sPoRTsMEN
Arrested At Oxford for Hunting With.
out Prescribed License.

Oxford, Me-, Nov. 22.-Yesterday.
Warden D. w. Stanley of Standish. ar
rested three Massachusetts sportsmen
at Oxford station as they were about
to board the train. The men were
Horace McKeen. William Wallace and
Frank NJ Ramsdell of Boston, and they
had been hunting for week in the
towns of oxford and Paris without
having provided themselves with
the necessary nonresident hunting
licenses.
Warden Stanley took the party be-
fore Trial Justice Faunce of Oxford.
and the men were fined $25 and costs
each. At the same time Fred McKeen,
a resident of Paris, with whom the
party had been staying. was fined $40
and costs for illegal hunting on Sun
day, but his fine was suspended during
good behavior.
These arrests are the result of a
watch which the game commissioners
have been keeping on this locality for
some time. and it is to be hoped that
Warden Stan.ey's prompt and efficient
service will serve as a warning and
| that there will be less illegal hunting
done here in the future.

DEPARTMENT REPORTS
On Products Of the Soil and Other
Agricultural Interests.

Washington, Nov. 22.-The depart
nent of agriculture. in a bulletin just
issued, announces growing market
for guinea fowl as table birds and sug-
gests that they might well be bred in
the United States more extensively.
either along with other poultry or in
larger numbers by themselves. The
report says there is reason to believe
that the improvement in guinea vari-
cites will continue and that their
breeding will become an increasingly
important branch of the poultry indus
try. There is already a fair demand
for guinea fowl in cities in the eastern
United States.
Nearly all the winter lettuce in the
United States has become diseased. the
Post today, says, as Il result partly
of forcing methods and of the fail
ure of greenhouse gardeners to
strengthen the stock of their plants by
occasional crossing with wild lettuce.
To remedy these evils, Mr.. Galloway,
chief of the bureau of plant industry,
has been working for two seasons past
and has succeeded in obtaining a crop
of winter lettuce plants that are i'm
the same time of large size and capable
of developing as early as the most
specialized of winter lettuce
Seed of healthy winter lettuce was
planted and the plants were crossed
with wild lettuce. or its next door
neighbor. a variety free from disease.
From the best of the plants seeds We're
taken. 1t is from these that seed will
be furnished to the greenhouse men Of
the great cities. thus saving from ruin
the winter lettuce industry. which for
three years past has been threatened
with extinction by the lettuce disease.
The bureau of plant industry of the
department of agriculture is engaged
on work, it is predicted, which will
result in materially reducing the price
of Easter lilies. Early last year, the
bureau imported from the Philippines
lily resembling the common Easter
lily in size and color. though bearing
only one and at times two flowers to
the plant. but developing in the re-
markably short space of two to three
months.
This lily, Mr.. Oliver, the depart
ment's plant breeder. has crossed with
the common Easter lily, resulting in q
hybrid. bearing as many flowers per
plant as the latter plant. which will
develop in four to five months. repre-
senting a shortage in time from one to
three months. 1t is believed that the
now hybrid Easter lily can be pro-
duced vastly cheaper than the one that
has been grown.
