SCHOOLS TO ENTER CONTEST
County Superintendent Will Urge
Corn Planting.
Bulletins and Information Given
to School Teachers.
School Children Will Enter State
Corn Growing Contest.

County Superintendent Of Schools
John Cutting has this week sent out to
teachers Of the country schools the in
formation that the schools of the coun-
ty will take up the proposition made
by the State Agricultural college that
the country schools attempt to pro-
mote interest in better farming by the
Introduction OF a seed growing con-
test among the scholars. and for this
purpose he has distributed among the
teachers Of the county Bulletin No. ~
published by the college containing
all inform alton as to the rules and re-
quirements Of the contest.
These are not particularly hard to
follow and the youngest OF the schol-
ars in the county may enter and ex-
pect to accomplish results. More
than forty of the counties Of the state
have entered the contest, the purpose
Of which is an attempt to bring the
grade Of corn or other grain to high
er standard both as to quality as well
as to yield. The present average Of
the state is tWenty-nine bushels while
with the richness Of the soil and other
advantages the yield should not be
under sixty bushels to the acre.

give them S25 for use during the com
ing season. The boys have complied
with the wishes Of the board and no
games will be scheduled for this year.
In a field which has turned out two
men who have led the foot ball squad
of the university for the past few
years, it looks as if there was some
reason for such radical action on the
part of the board. It probably will
not meet with the appreciation of the
Current boys, but it is a good move
nevertheless.
The game is rough to say the least
and the records of the past year show
that more high school boys have been
injured and killed than boys from
higher schools, caused principally
from lack of observance of the rules
and reckless playing than for any
other reason. 1t is more than proba.
BILE that the parents of the city will
sustain the school board in the action
it has taken.

Good ear of corn y o farmers,
and if this feature is added to the usu-
al Display it should not only add to
the attractiveness of the display but
to the interest in the fair.
This is move in the right direction
and if the teacher takes the matter up
and makes a study of the matter SO as
to be able to explain intelligently to
the student the process OF termination,
the manner of selecting seed and the
process of planting as we'll as the hun
dred and one other points of interest
in the science of farming, the boy who
leaves the school after this practical
lesson will have better idea of what
is intended by education.
tits one of the every day matters and
something the child will be interested
in if he is inclined to be interested in
anything. There is nothing in this
life SO intensely interesting as doing
something of value when it is done in

est the child he must know the ''why",
If it is planting corn or splitting kind
ling, there is right and best way and
the reason for it and when the minC
gives understanding and intelligent
direction to the hand then work be-
comes a pleasure.
This is a move in the right direction
coming nearer to the solution Of TIT
great problem. of practical education

FIND ITS PLACE IN MARKET
New Ulm Stone Is Pronounced the
Best Used.
Redwood Falls Church Contracts
For Large Order.
ST. Paul Engineers Agree That it
Satifies Demand.

IF the present indications hold good
and the orders that are partly prom
ised are real. zed upon, together with
those that have been booked the New
Ulm Stone Company will have an ex-
cellent business thisyear The business
Of the past year was better than was
anticipated and had the result of
bringing the excellence Of the quality
of stone that the company is putting
on the market before the builders and
users Of stone. The result has been
that more inquiries are coming in and
the outlook for business this year is
very promising.
The sample orders that the city Of
ST. Paul placed last year have resulted
in further orders this year and the
engineers having the work in charge
have pronounced it the best in the
market. This applies principally to
the crushed rock used for macadam
purposes. The supply to be used for
one street, which will be shipped early,
will require some forty car loads, and
this is thought to be but a sample
order. 1t will go on what is known as
Maria avenue in ST. Paul.

orally believed that, barring unforeseen adverse
developments in the world of money and bust
ness, there will be a renewed buying movement
later on III the year, but it may come to pass
that some Of the more active issues will seek a
lower level before that time arrives. If there
should be sharp break in prices there would be
plenty of people on hand TO absorb securities as
there is large amount of capital waiting for
such an occurrence. Just at present caution in
stock market operations is to be commended, for
the good reason that many of the larger specu-
lative interests have disposed of their holdings,
while there are number of uncertainties in the
general situation which may at any time de-
velop dangerous symptoms which might tend to
provoke heavy liquidation in all classes of stocks
and bonds-that is, for speculative account.
