butter, and who make it, of course,
with hand churn. Some of these
farmers might make more butter than
they would require for their own use;
and the surplus they would sell, as
they would their surplus eggs, to the
country store.
And you find larger farmers, too,
farmers perhaps keeping many cows
and selling the bulk of their milk to
a creamery, still continuing to make
the butter that they need for them
selves and making it, as they have al
ways done, in hand churn.
Such churns are sold to people liv-
ing in suburban or country homes and
keeping COWS, who make their own
butter because they prefer to, anyway,
and they are bought by various people
everywhere who want sweet or un-
sailed butter and who make it for
themselves in hand churns.
America exports churns to the West
Indies and South America and to New
Zealand and Australia and to dairying
countries in various other parts Of the
world; but we still supply our own
people with the old-fashioned dasheT
as we did twenty years ago.

IMMIGRATION LEGISLA-
TTON.

The Committee on immigration of
the House of Representatives has re-
ported bill raising the head tax on
aliens from 81 to IS, requiring each
male adult to possess not less than SIS
and each female SIS, providing that
every immigrant over 16 years shall
be able to read and write in some Ian
guage, and placing in the excluded
class imbeciles, the weak-minded and
manual laborers of poor physique. The
Department of Commerce and Labor
is given discretion to admit or exclude
immigrants under 16 years of age
coming to this country alone. The
proposed law, it is stated, would sift
out a good many undesirable persons

TO TACKLE HAZERS:

The hazing trials at Annapolis. fol-
lowed by the long discussion of the
subject in and out of Congress. have
served to widely advertise the Acad-
envy, and, as result, there has been
an unusual rush of applications from
ambitious young men who aspire to be-
come admirals. Many of the applicants
breathe defiance to all hazers and re-
cite instances Of their physical DOW
ers to demonstrate their fitness for ap-
pointment One of the letters recently
received at the Navy Department ran
as follows:
Il play football, have been captain OF
the basketball team these last two
years. l am also an expert with box
ing gloves, and would like to have
some of the Annapolis fellows try their
hazing tricks on me. imagine they
would have to get real busy if they
tried to stand me on my head and
make me eat soap.*

FENCES AND GATEEPOsTS.

is possible to obtain from them fences
constructed entirely of metal at small
cost.
While the unprogressive farmer is
content to have few bars to let down
in order to admit Of the passage Of
teams or wagons, no fence is complete
without an entrance, and therefore
without gate, for at best bars are
only makeshifts and loss of both
time and temper. 1t is surprising how
common they are when excellent and
.serviceable light gates can now be pur-
chased very cheaply and even where
the lack of money is an obstacle to this
a handy man can, with the aid of an
axe, a hammer and some nails build
and hang a strong useful gate with no

quiet condition are rarely injured by
it; but once excited by panic or play
they forget its danger and often suffer
In consequence. While there may be
some styles of woven fence which will
enable the farmer to discontinue barb
wire. the new material must have suf-
ficient elasticity to recover from Occa-
sional very severe and unusual strains
and also sufficient to respond to our
varied conditions of heat and cold, and
so require no straining after its cree

The depletion Of the timber lot and

Of fences on the farm a matter of con-

quite separate and distinct from any
posts used in the construction Of the
fence, as a better effect is obtained
without additional trouble if they are
slightly higher than the uprights in
the gate and higher than the fence
posts adjoining the gateway. The
main entrance to the farm and also the
gateways around the dwelling may be
still further improved if little addi-
tional trouble is taken to square the
gate posts and round off the tops.
No gate can be said to be finished
until it is painted, for not only does
painting aid in giving a tidy appear

putting down and up of the bars.

CONSOLIDATED SCHOOLS.

Assistant Secretary Hays Points Out
Necessity for More Thorough Farm
Education. Is In Effect a Country
High School.
The consolidated school question is
a feature of the country school educa-
ton problem which is rapidly coming
to the fore, especially in the northwest,
and it promises much for better farm
education. The proposition is'that six
OF seven or ten of the crossroads
schools in any rural district shall be
combined into one larger school and
were it not for the question Of trans
portation of the scholars to and from
the central school, 1t would undoubted-
ly meet with universal favor. From
an educational point of view the adj
vantages of the consolidated school
plan are very great. Assistant Sec
rotary of Agriculture Hays is an en-
thusiastic advocate Of the plan and
states that where the plan has been
put into operation the beneficial re-
suits have been manifold. The ques-
ton has been agitated to a consider
able extent in his own State Of Mimi
esota, due largely to his own efforts.
Professor Hays is thoroughly alive to
the fact that a better scheme of edu-
cation is needed for the farm boy If
he is to keep his foremost position
among the worlds agriculturists.
Lawrence democrat. (Lawrenceburg, Tenn.) 1884-1925, 1906-05-25
FOR BETTER FARM EDUCATION.


The time, Professor Hays says, has
gone by when an ordinary" school
education will serve for the farm boy.
The three RS are not sufficient to
enable him to succeed in life. He must
have special education for farming just
as the young man or woman who is to
enter professional life has special in
struction along the lines. he expects to
follow. And so the consolidated
school comes in, with its better educa-
tional facilities.
Canada has taken an advanced stand
on this question and is consolidating
her country schools. In word the
farmers children are being given the
advantages Of high school education.
AS President Creelman, Of the On
tario Agricultural College has pointed
out, the system undoubtedly is, from
a standpoint of dollars and cents, more
expensive, for the first few years at
least; but the rural ratepayer has it to
decide for himself whether he would
rather pay five dollars more per year
and secure for his boy or girl such
increased benefits as the consolidated
school can give or leave them in the
hands of an inexperienced girl teacher
who perhaps does her best in little
one-roomed school, without facilities
Of demonstration Of any kind.

PLANTS GROWN BY PUPILS. T,

The ordinary range of vegetables
and a selection Of Towering plants are
grown in these gardens, the pupils
themselves furnishing the necessary
work. In the large schools two hours
each week are found sufficient for
the garden work, and one hour in
the smaller, in both cases under the
supervision of the teacher or a special
instructor. The school garden serves
double purpose, since it not only
provides the most practical form Of
nature study but acts as valuable In
centive in the general school work. 1t
Is no uncommon sight during the sum-
mer season to see a public school In
session out OF doors, not with slate
and pencil but with hoe and shovel.
The pupils thoroughly enjoy it. They
are allowed the proceeds Of their plots
as their own property and in addi-
ton may take home the plants left
over from thinning out. The class
plots are reserved as source Of rev.
enue for the school and as a supply,
In some cases, for the school lunches.

PRACTICAL FARM SCIENCE.

One of the most important features
of these schools is the school garden,
where practical farm science is taught
in a practical way. Such gardens are
not, however, confined to the con-
solidated schools, but are now being
kept in connection with a number Of
the more progressive district schools
In various parts of the country. They
are usually from two to three acres in
area, divided into experimental and
individual plots for each Of the pupils,
ranging in size from six feet square
to six by ten or even twenty.
The general plan of laying out each
garden involves ID belt Of native
trees and shrubs surrounding the
grounds; (2) a half-acre playfeld for
the boys; (3) a lawn bordered with
shade trees for the girls; (4) shaded
walk each for boys and girls, about a
hundred yards long; 90 an attractive
approach to the school, consisting
chiefly Of a piece of open lawn, with
shrubs and flowers on either side; (6)
suitable reservation for individuals
and class plots; (7) an orchard plot
or border; 90 a forest plot in which
the chief native trees are grown from
the seed.

Noses KOutits Fined $500 for Swear
inG and FiRhtinS.

Sunday morning a large crowd was
attracted to the store of Abraham De-
matre by the sound of loud iabbering in
Syrian and considerable scuffling and
yells. Lieutenant of Police Gray came
up with the others in time to see Moses
Koutite, another Assyrian, coming out
in a slightly hammered condition with
Ais Debb, who keeps the stand across
from the FL Provedo. KOutite was ar
rested and let out on bond of 500.
The evidence, as shown in the police
court Monday morning, was to the effect
that Abraham Dematre had declared to
Debb that he had seen Koutite with his
arm around Debb's sister at four o'clock
in the morning. Debb reported same
to Moses, who Immediately, desiring to
vindicate the girl who was his be-
trothed, went to the store of Abraham
Dematre in company with Debb and
found the store man out. His wife
sent to Joe Dematre's, however, for
Abraham by her son. Coming up to his
store with his brother Joe, Abraham
thought that everything was all right,
as the two visitors were laughing and
smoking, so they walked in, and after a
few common place remarks Moses
Koutite asked Dematre if he made
those charges to Debb. The answer
being in the affirmative, he then asked
if he would swear to it by the head of
his son. Abraham refused to swear to
it, so Moses called him liar and sew
eral other things unwritable. Then it
appears that there was a general mix
up and free fight. No conclusion could
be reached as to who started it, both
sides telling entirely different tales. Be
it enough that there was a fight and
that Koutite got the worst of it with a
buster welded by the faithful wife.
No one was cut in the fracas, az was
reported at first, and with the excep-
ton of few slight bruises on the head
and a five-dollar fine to Koutite. and
$500 for Debb as accOmplice, as well
as the hatred between the two houses,
