The county agricultural school has
just issued Bulletin No. 4, Vol. 2, of
fourteen pages Agriculture in the
Rural Schools-What Should be Taught
and Where Taken up" is the text of
one part, which gives some timely
advice on the subject. Pruning Shade
Trees is another topic full of interest
to those who own that kind of trees.
Under the head of Canning some
valuable advice and recipes areigiven,
recipes that are simple and useful
1.-The Use of Paint tells the great need
of painting all lumber exposed TO the
weather, the colors that should not
| be used, etc. The bulletin makes
interesting reading for anyone.
At the meeting of the Wood county
board last week resolution was in
troduced providing for the erection of y
| building for the training school now
organized and also for an agricultural
school to be established later-if the
| board so provides. The proposition
met with a great deal of disfavor, just
| as similar plan did when first pre-
sented to the Marathon county board.
| 1t was referred to committee and
will be reported on next spring. If
the Wood county legislators will drop
the sectional feeling, which is apparent
in the matter, and accept the resolution,
their children will never have reason to
! be ashamed of them.
The county agricultural school has
| applications for boarding places from
nine prospective students, but the
principal, Mr. Johns, is experiencing a
case of "Tommy's Troubles" in finding
such places as the financial limit of the
applicants require. Many, if not all, of
them cannot afford to pay over So 80
per week for board and it is almost
impossible to get board for less than
$500. Those who conduct boarding
| places say that present prices of pro-
visions are so high that they cannot
afford to furnish board for any less.
The school is badly in need of a
dormitory, as urged at the last meeting
of the county board.
Swift & Kruger. who conduct a
| meat market at l2l S. Second Ave-, on
F., Wednesday entered plea of guilty to
charge of selling adulterated meats,
and were fined S25 and costs, total of
S2S. This firm was one of seven on
whom warrants were served about two
weeks ago by j. &. Moore, a member
of the dairy and food commission, but
at that time they pleaded not guilty
and manifested a desire to stand trial
and the date for such was fixed for the
22d. When the case was called, they
changed their minds and entered the
above plea. The commission alleged
that the state chemist had found boracic
acid and coloring matter in sausage
purchased in their shop.
