School Affairs.

Teachers Institute for Stark and
Billings counties will be held in Dickin-
son the week beginning June 5. Defn-
lite arrangements for instructors have
not been made but an effort will be
made to have Prof. Crane OF Mimic with
us again. y
A number Of petitions for the organi-
cation of school districts in the territory
recently annexed to Stark county have
been presented but the organization of
these districts is being withheld because
of a report to the effect that w. H.
Brown, of the Brown Land Co., has
instituted proceedings to have the
Boundary Bill set aside. 1t is a gross
injustice for the people of the annexed
territory to be required to pay county
tax and then be deprived of its benefits;
but, rs the matter stands, nothing else
can be done, for even if the districts
were to be organized they could not
realize on their bonds SO long as the
validity Of the annexation measure is in
question.
The attention of teachers and men,
bers of school boards of the county is
directed to an amendment recently
made to Sec. Cos of the Revised Code of
1900 which makes this section read as
follows:
at [school board] shall employ the
teachers of the school district and may
dismiss a teacher at any time for plain
violation of contract, gross immortality
or fragrant neglect of duty. No person
shall be permitted to teach in any public
school who is not the holder of a teach
er's certificate or a permit to teach,
valid in the county or district in which
such school is situated. and every con-
tract for the employment of a teacher
must be in writing, and such contract
must be executed before such teacher
begins to teach in such school. 1t shall
grade the salaries of teachers for the
district in accordance with the grades
of certificate and no teacher holding a
certificate of a lower grade shall receive
a salary equal to or in excess Of that
paid to a teacher holding a certificate OF
a higher grade IN the same district;
provided. further, that nc teacher hold.
ing a second grade certificate shall re.
ceive less than s45 per month on and
after the passage and taking effect of
this act. And nothing in this section
shall be construed to mean that teachers
holding the same grade of certificate
must necessarily receive the same
wages"
The above amendment will go into
effect July !, 1905, and the clause relat.
ing to the establishment of a minimum
wage for second grade teachers will not
affect any contract made previous to
July j. The State Department has sig
ni6ed its intention of making examina.
tons for second grade certificates much
more rigid after July 1, and endeavor to
raise the standard of teachers to con.

Commissioner ]. B. Stoddard has re-
turned from Waterloo, Ia, where he
purchased five pure bred Aberdeen
Angus bulls, and a pure bred COW, from
H.. J. Hess, who is a breeder of pure
bred and fancy stock. Previous to this
last purchase Mr.. Stoddard had two
pure bred cattle of this strain, and the
majority of his large range herd are
high grades. Stockmen are getting
very partial to this breed of cattle, as
they are found to be good ~rustlers and
of excellent beef value.-Sentinel Butte

Commissioner T. F. Roberts of Sand
Creek has recently purchased a full
blooded Shire stallion, weighing 22Io
pounds, and no doubt the finest speci-
men of the Shire race that was ever
brought into this country. The horse
was purchased from Ernest Nus, Of
Arlington, Ia, who makes a specially of
draft and coach horses. Mr.. Roberts
already has several registered pure
bred Shire mares and will raise colts
that will be eligible for registration.
The horse is an. animal that demands
the admiration of any lover of the breed
and is a credit both to the breeder and
the present owner. We understand
the purchase price was around $1,000

Wednesday night Asa Gardner un-
loaded a car of horses which he had
shipped in from St. Paul. The horses
are for sale and Mr.. Gardner thinks that
ne will find a good market among the
large number. of new settlers who are
coming in this spring. 1t seems a little
odd that horses should be brought here
from the east when our W ranchers
are raising large numbers on the range
each year; but at this time of year the
range horses are not, as a rule, in good
working order, and so Mr.. Gardner is
trying the experiment.

German field Guns Unsatisfactory.

Although adopted only a few years

of Germany has been condemned, and it
is to be replaced by field guns similar
to those used by the Japanese. In the

Gaulowavs in Texas.

The first Galloways introduced in Jeff
Davis county were three pure-bred
yearling bulls. These bulls were pur-
chased by w. T. Henderson in 1896, to
be tried as an experiment, heretofore
the general impression being that the
Galloways we're not prolific. These
bulls were put in a pasture with sixty
well-bred Durham and Hereford cows.
Every n Re of these cows brought a calf
the following year and all the calves
were we'll marked, being black-faced
mules. Only two out of the sixty head
had scurs or buttons. From the good
results obtained from this experiment
Mr.. Henderson and myself, of the same
county, invested extensively in Gallo
ways, both using well-bred bulls exclus-
lively in our herds. l also added to my
herd a number of registered Galloway
cows that | had purchased in Missouri.
These COWS have done we'll on the
range. bringing calves every year. From
close observation it has proven to be a
demonstrated fact that heifers will
commence to bring calves at I8 months
old and will continue to bring a calf
every year thereafter, proving Their: to
be more prolific in this country than any
other breed of cattle. During the long
drouths which are frequent in this part
of the state the Galloways may be seen
grazing on the toughest parts Of the
range, which other breeds will not util'
ize. Being thrifty and active they climb
the highest and toughest pinnacles after
food. When grass is scare in the
valley, they will feed on plants and
herbs that other breeds will not cat.
Therefore they do well when less thrifty
breeds are dying from poverty in the
valleys. 1t has also been demonstrated
here that Galloways, after having been
starved and stunted when calves, will
come out and foster and develop into
better and larger animals than any other
breed of cattle under the same circum-
stances. Taking all points into consid-
GRAFTON, the Galloways seem to be the
cattle for this section of the state and
the Western Texas cowmen are Begin
ming to realize it.
A number of ranchmen have already
replaced their red and white-face with
black muley bulls; SO now it is an
established fact by those men who have
had a thorough experiment. in the Gallo
way cattle, that they are the best all
purpose cattle in the world for rangers,
feeders and shippers.-P. H. Pruett,
