the First grade is delighted
with the Seaside and Way-side
book and that her class is taking
much more interest in the work.
The supplementary books are
more expensive than the adopted
books, and they bring some extra
cost with them, but we feel that
the interest they bring is suffi
cient to repay the extra cost.
1t has been decided to publish
a list of names of all pupils who
make A in all grades on the re-
port cards. We grade the pupils
on eight points aside from the
regular classes. They are as
follows: application, behavior,
punctuality, politeness, neatness,
care of books, days present,
and times tardy. Those who re-
ceive a grade of A and are placed
on the honor roll have made a
grade of 95 per ct. or more on
each item and subject. This
week we give the honor roll for
September and October. 1t is
as follows:
First Grade; Roy McReynolds,
and Lola Leath.
Second Grade; Charlie Lotion.
Fifth Grade; Lizzie Bates, and
Katie Bea Barrett.
Eighth Grade; BERTHE Mulkey.
Ninth Grade; Nettie Burrows,
Zina Henson.
Tenth Grade; Sue Wilson and

The pupils of the Sth, 9th, 10th,
and 18th grades have formed two
societies. Each society holds
one meeting per month. The
meetings are held together and
a friendly rivalry is stimulated.
The first program was rendered
last Friday, and the effort made
was credit to the ones who took
part. Pupils of more experience
often render programs that are
less interesting and instructive.
Each society has it's officers and
takes general direction of the
work.
The members of the tenth and
eleventh grades are spending
sometime in singing. An organ
list has been selected for one
month. Miss Mamie Conner
was elected to play during No
vember. Supplementary readers
have been selected for the various
grades. Mrs. Thompson says

Public School Notes.

Thinking that the parents will
be interested in seeing some
thing of the work of the school,
we give few notes. Those who
visit the school or pass the
building when the pupils are
passing know that we have about
as many as the teaching force
can handle. Thus far we have
enrolled 1885, The daily attend
ance has been good in all the
rooms, and the pupils have been
doing good work when it was
possible for them to do good
work. For sometime it was inn
possible for the book men to sup
DIV all the books that were need
ed. At the present there are
only a few books needed and the
demands will be met soon. The
grade cards for the second
month were sent out last week,
and we hope that those interest
ed in the advancement OF pu-
pills will give the cards careful
attention. The report gives a
very complete record of the work.
If any of the grades are not sat
isfactory, it will be advisable for
the parent to consult the teacher
and the Supt. about the grades.
We do not know all the conditions
of the children, and we are al
ways glad to talk to the parents
about the work of the pupils. A
complete record of the pupils
who were in school last year at
this place was left and there was
no trouble in classing the pupils
who had been in this school, but
many have moved into the dis
trict since that record was made,
and in many cases there was no
report card presented, We did
the best we could in classing
such pupils, but we have had to
make some changes since the be
ginning.

Graduated Land Tax.

The Lubbock Avalanche is
grumbling because of wholesale
buying of plains land for specu-
lative purposes only. A man
who wouldn't grumble at that is
worse than hog that would lie
down in the trough lengthwise
and see the other hogs die, for a
hog is not supposed to have any
conception of right and wrong.
A graduated land tax, starting
pretty steep and getting sleeper
at every jump, would soon satisfy
the most abnormal appetite. -
Farmers Journal, Abiline.
The permanent developement
of Texas depends upon the ad-
vent of the actual settler. The
land speculatOr cares nothing
about the locality in which he
operates, and all he wants is the
money he gets out of his trades.
The idea of a graduated land tax
is a mighty good one, and it
would help wonderfully in the
upbuilding of the State. A quar-
ter section of land in Texas is all
that any man needs to keep him
busy until he wins home on
Easy street. -Ft. Worth Record.
A graduated land tax is not a
new thing by any means and 1t
works beautifully wherever tried.
The News will take up this ques-
ton in a later issue.

Cement Floors in Cribs

In "Wallaces' Farmer, "Mr. s.
Schrantz gives his experience with
cement floors in corn cribs as fol-
lows:
In the fall Of 1903 built a double
crib, 30x60 feet, with concrete floors
under the cribs and driveway. The
outside is sided up tight with shipiap,
and the cribs are ten feet wide. 1t
was filed that fall with corn after
the floors were down only two weeks
and without extra ventilators. The
corn was shelled out in January, ex-
cent one thousand bushels reserved
for feed, and none was spoiled. In
1904 the crib was again filled and
shelled out early in winter, except
enough for feed. Late in the next May
two neighbors, who had to replant
and could get no seed, came, and in
four hours selected enough good corn
from what was left to replant two
hundred acres for one and forty acres
for the other. 1t grew well, but the
first man got his corn almost too
thick, and the other raised eighty-five
bushels to the acre on clover sod
The crib was filled again last fall and
is still full, but / am sure the corn
has kept perfectly
In building, / advise raising the
floors above the level of the ground
Fill in eighteen inches with the scra
per and the teams will tramp it dowr
well Then on this taMp about sil
inches of sand or cinders and ther
put on four inches of concrete, mixet
one part cement to seven of gravel
lamp down well and put on the finisl
coat This gives good drainage, ant
the corn will keep whether the cril
is closed or open on the sides.

Fattening Chickens

The fattening of chickens can be
fastened in many ways, but the part
grain diet is the safest method. II
only small number of fowls are to
be fattened, quick results can often
be obtained by feeding them on baked
Johnny cake or corn meal, with an
occasional scrap of beef containing
fat, or pork cracklings. 1t would be
too much trouble to feed large num-
Der of chickens on such diet. Heavy
mash feeding exclusively should not
be tried by novices, as the fowls are
often not in condition to stand 1t. 1t
doesn't pay, as a general rule, to try
to fatten old hens. When they have
completed their service for you, it is
better to dispose of them at once. Ii
it is desired to fatten old hens, how
ever, they should be confined closely
and fed a ration similar to that they
received when laying. II more corn
and meat foods are added, be careful
not to give them too much, as old
hens cannot stand as much heating
food as young chicks.

How to Obtain Profitable Dairy Herd

by keeping yearly record,
weighing the milk and making fat
test every seventh week. 1t will not
be long before you will have an idea
which cow you should sell. Reduce
the herd down to those that pay.
2-Improve the conditions that sur
round the cows; make their milk max
ing condition comfortable, ventilate
and tighten the stable.
3-Study the principles of scientific
feeding; don't be scared at the idea
of doing a little hard reading and
study Get Henry's book ON Feeds
and Feeding" and learn the principles
of right feeding for milk.
4-Get a bull of some decided dairy
breed; buy good one; commence to
raise well bred dairy heifers and de
velop them into good profit making
cows. Half of the cows were not born
to produce milk proftably They are
the product of the uncowlike ideas
of the men who produced them. There
was no thought of brain work r
into their breeding How can they
do any better? Any man who viii
travel the road we have indicated
will in short time see wonderful
difference in the profit of his dair.
labor, and then he will see that i
is mighty important to know his cow
and what their butter costs.-Prof

Improved Corn for Wisconsin ;

A variety of corn that yields from
rs to 100 bushels of shelled corn per
acre has been developed at the Wis
consin Experiment Station by Agron-
omist Ransom A. Moore. This corn,
which is known as Wisconsin No.
T." or Silver King" is the triumph
of four years experimentation by
Prof. Moore( and shows the posi-
bility of producing phenomenal results
by careful methods of selection.
twenty-five acres of this corn have
just been harvested on the university
farm, producing rs bushels (shelled)
per acre. The Importance of this va

SeIf-ControI in the Dairy

Self-control has money value in
the dairy.
It's value should be especially ex-
planned to the mixer, All men who
handle dairy cows know how difficult
it is to get a man for mixer. When
a nervous cow kicks him or by romp-
ing scatters the milk drawn, he Is apt
to use his own foot to excess or to
WELD his stool as policeman his
club The man is not naturally bru-
tai, but in trying circumstances his
temper gets the better of him. BY
losing his self-control, the dairyman
not infrequently loses a good cow, for
ill-treatment is liable to spoil her.
Thus a good heifer, the product OF
high priced parents, may be spoiled
in the making; and so it stands to
reason that the person with an un-
comfortable temper is out Of his
sphere in the dairy, if indeed, he is
a success anywhere.
1t is perhaps not an exaggeration
| to say that the lack of self-control is
lack of common sense. Where is
the difference, if the consequences are
the same?

Eggs Packed in Salt

There is no cheaper way of preseFv-
ing eggs than by packing them In salt
and the only objection to such meth
cd is that the salt sometimes becomes
packed in the receptacle, making it an
unpleasant task to remove the eggs.
Salt in which eggs have been packed
is not harmed in thel east and can be
used for the stock. Almost any sort

Crooks, kegs, barrels and boxes are
most commonly used for that purpose.

not touch each other. After filing all
