BRAINS VS.. GALL

A man entering store in his own
town-a small place-approached the
merchant and asked if he would eX-
change for him garment he had
bought in mail order house in big
city for similar garment of another
size, says an exchange.
The merchant almost tainted at
this mans gall, but being an obliging
merchant he did not get angry. He
asked the man why he did not return
the garment and have it exchanged
The answer was he would have to re-
turn it at his own expense ard might
not then get what he wanted. The
merchant looked sharply at the man
to see if he was Joking, or if he really
didn't know any better, and seeing
it was only the latter, he agreed to
make the exchange. The man was
profuSe in his thanks for the accomO-
dation. Then the merchant speak
ing to the man gently but firmly
said:
"My friend, you live in this COM
munitv. You own farm that per-
hapS cost you SIS or $40 an acre, and
| 1t is now worth S75 to 800 an acre,
and yet the land is not as good as
when you bought it. 1t is worth
more because it is near a good town
Ito this town that you and your
neighbors have helped build up by
patronage, and while you were doing
it you were unconscious of doubling
and trebling the value of your farm.
If you buy goods in Chicago you help
to make Chicago a larger city, and
leave to other people the burden OF
making your community, your home,
your land increase in value. Ii you
help to build up Chicago how much
will it increase the value of your
: farm? If you are short of cash and
ask credit of the stores here, and you
get it. it is a favor to you. If you
! buy anything at the stores here you
can exchange it or get your money
! back. In many ways you are under
) obligations to this town and the mer.
chants here to trade with them, and
, yet you have sent your money to this
mail order house to get what you
} want and have not got it after all
3 And you are hurting the value Of
Iyour farm when you hurt this town.

farmers throughout that country
were skeptical at first, not understand
ing the real use of the institution:
once they saw it in working order,
and once they saw what it was ac-
complishing, however, they changed
their stand and it is now one OF the
strongest institutions of similar
nature in the state.
Marathon County Car Next.
Upon learning of the good work
resulting from the institution of the
Dunn county agricultural school,
Marathon county came to the front
as an educational county and adopted
an institution of the same kind,
founded at Wansau. The school has
followed the precedent set by the
Dunn county school, and is doing
wonders for the younger people of
that country.
What Those Who Know Say.
Recently a meeting of the county
board Of Marathon county and all the
county officers adjourned to the Mara
thon agricultural school, aud there
were treated to dinner prepared by
the girls who were in the domestic
economy department.. The dinner
was served by the yoang women in a
proper manner, and the food was ex-
cellently prepared as they had learned
in the school. While at the dinner,
the county board members talked of
the institution, and everyone de-
clared himself proud of the fact that
he had voted to have such a fine in
stitutiOn in his county. Among
other things said, was this by Superin-
tendant Tobey of Wausau's schools:
Marathon and Dunn countless" he
said, "stand out in bold relief among
the counties of the state, because
they. have done more for their young
people than any other counties in the
state" Are the residents of Wood
county, the hest agricultural county
in the state of Wisconsin, as evidenced
by the last rating al the state fair

ACRICUL. TURAL SCHOOL
LIKED IN OTHER CITIES
If Success i'm Other Counties, Why
Not in Wood County7,-GoodF For
Farmers Bows

If the agricultural school which
brought up much discussion at the
last weeks meeting of the county
board, is decided success i'm other
counties and is receiving the heart
lest support there, why should it not
be a success in Wood county? The
only way one has of Judging anything
new is in the success it has attained
in some place where it has been tried
There are but two counties in the
state where the agricultural school
has been tried in connection with the
county normal schools, or training
schools for teachers. These two
counties are Marathon on our north
and Dunn county, to the northwest
of us.
What Would be Taught.
The agricultural school here would
contine itself to the general work in
agricultural, tlling Of the soil, new
methods of agriculture and raising of
special crops, principles involved in
stockbreeding, dairying, the essentials
and care of the dairy herd and other
stock, breeds and breeding of all farm
animals and the simple remedies for
all their diseases. In the horticultural
department would be taught vege-
table and flower gardening, bush fruit
growing, the care of Strawberries and
orchid practice. comprising pruning
and grating and shade tree culture.
Then when we'll started, short
elementary course in forestry would
be taught.
Dunn County Had First School.
The Dunn county school was the
first to be established, and it has
never received any word but that of
praise. From the first it has proven
itself a good thing, and of great
practical use to the younger genera
tion of farmers IN that county. Indeed,
so successful has it been that an out
side scholar cannot secure admission
to the school, as all the room is needed
by residents of Dunn county. The

this year. to allow Marathon and Dunn
counties to stand out in ''bold relief
in the state in which 1T is placed, in
educational matters?
How Much Cost to Farmers?
Anything which will benefit the
farmer in any way should receive the
strictest attention. Anything educa-
tlonal, especially this agriculture
study, Of all things, is for the best
interest OF the farmer, more SO him
than any one else. Then why should
| there be any hesitancy on the part of
any one to have such a school establi-
shed? Among some of the reasons
! that were advanced by some of the
supervisors from country districts
was that the school would cost them
too much money. This is absurd. and
the farmer is the last man we would ex-
pect to who would object on this point.
The cities of Wood county pay two
thirds Of the taxes, leaving the farmer
but one third. Out of this, the state
would pay one half the cost of main
tainance. leaving the farming portion
Of the county to pay but one sixth the
cost of maintenance.
Is Madison School Best for Average Boy?
Another point that was raised was
that the farmer could send his boy to
Madison and get better results Just as
cheap as he could to send HIM to a
county agricultural school. This is
not true Many farmers do not feel
financially able to send their boy to
Madison and keep him there through
a course in that school. Whether he
can do so or not, we hold that the
county school is better one for him
to attend than the state school. Ii
he attended county agricultural
school in Grand Rapids, for instance,
there would, for one thing, be the ex-
penSe of living with other young men
in town where "appearance" must
be kept, does not know what it means.
But here is the factor that means
most to the future Of the farmers
boy; when he goes to Madison, be-
comes "white collar" boy, and
becomes used to life at school there,
he feels like donning pair of over
alls and working in the fields during
the summer.
