The excess of women over men grad
uslly rose during the last century, but
not in proportion to the increase of the
population. There are now slightly
over million more women than men
in the country. More male than female
children are born, and up to fourteen
or fifteen years of age there are more
boys than girls. but beyond that age
women are in the majority.

DIGGING OUT A TRAIN

THE worst snowdrifts experienced
by any railroad are said to lie
those in Sweden. Although the
cold is not so intense as in some of our
western states the snowfall is heavy
and continuous. The snow ploughs of
various kinds which are used on these
roads are said to be the most powerful
in the world. There are times however,

st. Louis, to be admired in the closing
days of that big show. When the
worlds fair was held in Chicago Mr..
Warnock sent squash that weighed
1865 pounds, but in 1898 he beat his own
record by raising another squash that
weighed 3SSh pounds, and now last
years big squash beats this by 14h
pounds. While Mr.. Warnock's COM
petitors charge that he has some secret
process of getting results in squash
raising he attributes his success to
liberal watering. He sorrowfully ad-
ihits that he has tried peculiar ways
oc giving size to squash, but he is now
satisfied that the only thing that will
increase the size Of the squash must
come out of the vine, and the vine
must get its support from the natural
roots.

UNDER new RULES
Applications for State Certificates
Will Probably be Under
New Law.
ADVANTAGES ARE REMOVED
Applicant Must Pass All Branches at
One Time According to This En-
actment-LocaI Examinations.

Superintendent S. J. Ferguson has re-
ceived circular from the state super
intendent of public instruction, Alfred
Bayliss, calling attention to the new
enactment with reference 10 the state
certificates. II is believed that the re-
quirements of the new law will work
toward a reduction of the applications
for this class of certificate.
One of the features that distinguishes
this from the former law is with ref
erence to the taking of the examina-
tons. Formerly an applicant might
pass in part of the branches and fail
in others. yet those in which he passed
would be retained to his credit when
he came to take the second eXamlna-
ton. Under this enactment he must
take all of the branches at one time,
and if he fails in one he fails in all OF
them. practically. Another feature is
that a registration fee must be paid TO
the superintendent in the county where
the holder enters upon his duties. One
of the inducements under the old Sys-
tenn was that the holder of a state Ger
tifcate did not have to deal with the
county superintendent. Following is
the section quoted by the superintend-
ent of public instruction.:
Conditions.
1t shall be the duty of the superin-
tendent of public instruction to grant
state certificates to teachers that may
be qualified TO receive them. Such GER
tificates shall be valid in every dis
trict in this state during the good be
havior of the holder thereof. But such
certificates shall be granted only upon
public examination, under such regula-
lions and by such examiners as the SUI
perintendent of public instruction shall
prescribe and appoint. Provided, how
ever. that each examination shall be
complete in itself; and, provided fur
Their, that the superintendent of public
instruction shall have power to sus-
pend the operation of any state certifi
cate for immortality or other unprOfes-
sional conduct Before entering upon
his duties as teacher. the holder of
any state certificate shall present the
same to the county superintendent for
registration A fee of 81 shall be
charged therefor and covered into the
institute fund
Examinations will be held July 1921
at the University of Illinois, Urbana;
Normal university, Normal; Southern
