The Danes are great dairymen, and
there are no people in the world who
pay more attention to their cows
than do these people. A traveller
who has spent some time in Denmark,
according to Farmers Review, says
that all the stables he visited had
concrete floors and were fireproof.
Water was in abundance and could
be used in any quantity for washing
out Of the stables. Danish dairymen
like to know what their cows are do

"There is nothing so admirable

says the West Coast Trade. "To
carp and criticize ones home and
surroundings does no good and is
apt to work harm. Pride in the
local town is sometimes made a
subject for jeering comment. A
stranger sees little to justify the
vanity of the native over his little

spirit which builds up cities and
makes them prosperous and great.

Horticultural Law Invalid

A serious defect has been found in
the horticultural law of 1905, suffi-
Gent to invalidate the law, according
to high legal authorities in Olympia
The act in question is intended to be
amendatory of the act of 1908, and in
purporting to give the sections
amended neither the body of the new
law norsthe title refer to the date OF
approval or passage of the original
act or to the chapter or sections
whereIit may be found in any Of the
accreditedscodes. Inspection of the
recordssin the secretary of states
office shows that the error was made
in amending the bill as introduced in
the last Legislature. The new law
sought to change the manner of Sc.
Letting and paying county fruit in

serymen from $4,000 to$ 900; to add

BETTER PAPER IN
EVERY RESPECT
Continued from page

ty superintendent, l wish to say that
this office considers the elementary
normal diploma in this state BETTER
PAPER IN EVERY RESPECT than the first
grade certificate, and for this reason,
acting with the consent of the State
Board of Educa ton, this Office has for
years past been following the policy
of issuing first grade certificate
upon such elementary normal certifi-
Gates at the expiration of the latter,
provided that the applicant had COM
piled with the law governing renewal
of first grade certificates. In other
words, Miss Sweeney will be entitled
to first grade certificate, under our
present policy, when her elementary
normal certificate expires, provided
she has taught "a months successfully
during the life of said elementary
normal certificate. Sections 81 and
80 of the school coce are mentioned
in this matter. I think there is no
doubt!that any paper that is found to
be equal or superior to the first
grade certificate, from an education
al standpoint, would be held sufficient
by any court. And for this reason /
have'no doubt that Miss Sweeney has
com pliedlwith the intent of the law
in all particulars.
Referring to the contention in re-
gard to Supt. organs report, at
tempting to show that first grade
certificate is not authorized to be
granted. without examination upon
anything less than the highest papers
issued.by state normal school or
other accredited institutions, I wish
to say that this matter in his re-
port.referslentirely to normal schools
andsother institutions OUTSIDE OF THE
STATE OF WASHINGTON. The State
Board of Education fixes the stand
ard. for common school certificates,
and, acting within their authority,
have sanctioned the past acts of this
Office in issuing first grade certifi-
catesss on elementary normal certifi-
Gates from our state normal schools
There is no room for any controversy
in this matter.
Those connected with this office
certainly had no desire to see a
changetin the Office of school superin-
tendent in San Juan county, for we
have always regarded Mrs Buxton's
administration as eminently satisfac-
tory. We have no prejudice in the
matter, land ] have tried to state the
law andfalso the policy Of this Office
in exact words. In conclusion I wish
to say that if any resident of San
Juan county feels that an injustice
has been done, I shall be glad to sub
NIT the question to the attorney-gen-
eral if properly requested so to do.
Yours very truly,
F. M. McCully,
Assistant Superintendent.
