A Poor Hat Rack.

The Hon. John D. Long is native
OF Buckfield, Me-, and the people call
him Johnny" when he returns thither
on his annual vacations A few sum-
mers ago, when secretary of the navy.
he paid visit there. and called upon
some of mis- old friends, among them
widow who had won the appellation
OF Aunt" Brigham in the neighbour
hood where she lived.
Secretary Long wore a tall hat that
day, and when he came into the house,
darkened to exclude the flies and the
heat, he put his hat, top down, on a.
table. When he picked it up, after
concluding his call, he found that he
had placed it squarely in the center
Of sheet of fiypaper, and the paper
was stuck on SO firmly that "Aunt''
Brigham was obliged to trim the
sheet around the edges of the hat with
a pair of scissors, as she would trim a.
custard pie. Secretary Long left the
house with the fvpaper adhering to
the top of his hat. ~eal

Ants on PapOnies.

A number of our little flower grow

for ants on the Paeonies buds. was
not and am not now, able to answer
the question. I have been troubled
with the ants for years and have tried
everything in the way of insecticides
and all the plans 1 have ever seen
advocated to keep them away but
have found nothing yet which 1 could
conscienciously recommend This
week I am trying the latest plan
recommended to me-that of placing
wide ring of air Stacked lime on
the ground all around each clump of
plants, and next week will report as
to it's success or failure. "

Good Advice.
Grand Forks Evening Times.

Grand Forks Evening Times.
Co-Supt. ]. F. McLain, in a recent
bulletin, issued to the school officers
of Grand Forks county, said:
"The busy time will soon be over.
After the heavy spring work is over,
we suggest that you keep in mind the
Improvement of your school property.
Painting, cleaning and other repairs
should be seen to. MANY
school houses have been badly neg
lected."
We are glad to note this action COM
ing SO quickly ION the heels of our
article in last Saturdays issue, on this
matter. We believe the county super
intendents are the proper persons to
call attention of school officers to
these matters in as forcible manner
as possible, and frequently, until &C.
ton is taken
One of the most needed improve
ments in a general way, is a good
fence around the school grounds. I'm
til. this is done, there can be no in
terest taken by teacher and pupils in
I liking up the school grounds.
School gardening is becoming very
fashionable and we predict that in a
short time, some legislation will be
taken on this, so that the schools that
take the lead in the matter now, will
not be compelled to do so later on.
We should not wait for the strong
arm OF the law to step in and force
us to do our duty. g.,
That a well-fenced, well kept school
ground adds to the value of every
farmers home in the district, cannot
be denied. The little it would cost
each individual in extra taxes would
be returned many fold in the added
value to each farm, to say nothing of
the ethical value to the children in the
neighborhool--a matter of the great
est Importance.
A school library is of inestimable
value to every community, and our
school laws provide that every school
board shall expend for each depart
ment, not less than $1,000 each year.
yet how few give heed to this, if any
at all. Why?
Is it because the county .superinten-
dents have not used the. enforcement
of this feature of the law, or is it be-
cause of lack of interest on part of
teachers in urging it?
Most schools having libraries, we be-
lieve owe them to the enthusiastic
teachers who have raised the funds
by extra labor in getting up an enter
talnment to raise funds.
Now that books are so cheap, S35. 90
would buy nice book case and 100
choice well-bound books and for
S45, an, amount that has been paid for a
practically worthless chart a most ex-
cellent lot of books and book case can
be bought.
Library cases of seasoned wood, are
made so cheaply by machinery now
that it does not pay to put any money
| into cheap homemade affair that
lets in dust and does not look well at
anytime.
Schools should no more think OF
getting lot of books before purchas-
ing a good case, than a farmer would
think of farming without building a
house and granary.
How many superintendent are
stirring up school boards on the mat
tiers above referred to?

his house within a year he would
present Mrs. Richardson with a
nice baby carriage. Alright, its
9 bargain said Richardson. In
less than three days Mr.. Richard
son came in to claim his buggy.
Gilbertson made him prove up
and presented him with beauti-
full carriage for the new baby.
Why does the county allow the
old building to stand on the onJy
bit OF vacant land in the city that
is valuable for park purposes.
The old house should be removed,
the square cleaned up, a band
stand erected in the center and
trees planted. It takes years to
grow trees and they should be
planted this fall or next spring. A
little money expended would add a
great deal to the appearance of the
city. Surely our city fathers can
arrange with the county to make
the square south of the court
house beautiful resort.

1t is curious how ignorant of state
politics and state history some of our
newspapers can be. Some of the
papers have accused Governor Sarles
of signing bill to purchase himself
team and carriage, and give that as
one reason why they cannot support
him for reelection. 1t was not Sarles
but Gov. White who approved that bill,
and it was Senator Crane of Coopers-
town, who is now posing as a great re-
former. and is out roasting Governor
Sarles, who was the author of that
measure, for things he didn't do.
