By eliminating detail work il pho
Biography the artist of the camera has
reached a height of art, which puts him
on the same footing with the artist OF
the brush and pen. This fact is I'M
pressed on the visitor after a careful
study Of the fine pictures which are
hung by the American salon in the pub
lie library art gallery.
It is gratifying to the members Of the
Minneapolis Camera club and to the So
ciety of Fine Arts, under whose au-
spices the exhibit is given, to record an
attendance Of good proportions each
day, and while Chicago in three weeks
sent 10000 to the same salon, Mime
apolis art patrons feel that an attend
ance of several hundred a day is fair
compensation for their, efforts.
Among the photographs which are
hung not single one lacks the stamp
of approval of three Of the most criti-
cal judges on Photographic art, and So,
while there may be some better than
others, there are points Of merit in all.

for City Grade Schools,

Gross discrimination against the
cities results from the present system
of special state aid to high schools,
graded, semi graded and rural schools.
This is shown in table prepared
for the coming report of State Super
intendent J. W. Olsen. The table gives
the number Of such schools receiving
aid in each county of the state, the
total amount Of such aid paid to each
county, the total enrolment and the
amount Of local school taxes raised in
each county. ].
Special state aid is given by APP
preparation to schools that pass the re-
quirements of the state high school
board. The money comes out of the
general fund Of the state, raised by
direct taxation, and to which Henne.
pin county contributes nearly l8 pei
cent. Yet Hennepin county got only
$l4,ss9 out Of the. $45o,81S paid last
year as state aid, or a little more
than 8 per cent.
Where Money Goes.

ceiving $1,000 each; 148 graded schools
receiving 1926 each; 2S7 semi-gradee
schools receiving $3.50 each; go first
: class rural schools receiving 1872 each
and 249 second-class rural schools re

Death of Bright Little Girl.

After an illness of ten days from
pneumonia, Elizabeth, the three.
year-old daughter of Mr.. +. M,
Cunningham, died early Monday
morning.
The little girl, who was extreme
ly bright and loveable child, was
thought to have passed the crisis OF
the disease, but a weak heart was
unable TO bear the great strain OF
the reaction, and death came almost
without warning.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cunningham have
the sincere sympathy of the editor
in their sad bereavement, and the
fact that it was their only child
makes the burden seem harder.
The funeral will be held from
the house this "wednesday morn
ing, and interment will be made in
the family plot in Mount Hebron

Natual Fsrmsrs, Cluh Ns.iine.

The Mutual Farmers Club met
at the hoSpitable home of Mr..
Hugh ;. LuptoD on Saturday,
| December Is. There was goodly
attendance of members, and the
invited guests from the county and
city were Hon. r. T. Barton, Mr..
j. 5. Robinson and DR.. f. A.
Cochran.
While several of the appOintees
were absent, there was enough un-
finished and new business to make
the meeting one of unusual interest.
The question, ''Shall we plant
homegrown or northern seed pota-
tOesi" was discussed by Mr. ID. p.
Lupton. The writer advised get
ting northern seed if we wish TO
raise the size, quality and perhaps
the quantity. He also considered
1t advisable to plant the same
ground each year., prepare the
soil by manuring in the fall or
early winter. Pulverize the soil
early in the spring and plant
northern seed, cut and roll in
plaster a few days before plsnting.
1t was demonstrated in the dis
cussion following that the first
sprouts on potatoes that frequently
are broken off in planting are the
strongest, and the ones that would
produce the best crop.
Burying seed potatoes was re-
commended as a means of holding in
check the sprouting until the time
of planting.
What is the best and cheapest
kind of roofing for farmers to use. "
was the subject referred to c. Nj.
Solenburger, who read the letter
from Blacksburg on the subject,
saying.
We have not made trials with
different roofing, and, therefore.
cannot give you any detailed infor-
nation on this subject.
However, we have used cedar
and cypress shingles chiefly on onr
barns in which we have stabbed live
stock. Our little experience leads
us to think that a good quality of
shingles furnishes as satisfactory a
roofing material as many of the
othermaterials now on the market. >
The Club Advertiser was edited
and read by Mr.. n. w. Solenburger.
1t was a spicy and intructive part
of the program.
The question, How can we
make our homes more pleasant.
attractive and profitable, and re-
tain the young people on the farmg''
was the subject referred to Mr..
Edward w. Lupton, and answered
by him in a written essay. He
advised keeping your home sur
roundings in good repair and at
tractive, so that your family will
love it and take an interest in
keeping it SO. Let the family visit
cultured and refined people and 90
regularly to some church or meet
ing. The best way to keep the
people on the farm, in my opinion.
Is to give something to do that will
interest them, and at the same time
be a source of a little income, some
thing they can have as their own.
DO not keep them down To work
all the time, but give them a chance
to see how other people live. and
very often they will come home
better satisfied with their lot.
