MAKES PLAIN THE
AGR|CUL TURE WORK
State Superintendent Cotton
Issues a Bulletin on the
Movement.
SUGGESTION TO TEACHERS.
WORK WITH THAT OF THE CON-
MUNITY ITSELF-SCHOOL A
PART OF LIVING.

In the first of a series of bulletins to
be issued during the school year by
Fassett A. Cotton, state superintendent
of public instruction. concerning agri
culture in the public schools of the
state, Mr. Cotton Celebrates on the ag-
ricultural scheme of work laid out by
the state board Of education.
In the first three years of school life
Mr.. Cotton suggests that the attempt
should be made to familiarize the chill
dren with the common things about
them-farm animals, crops, etc.-and to
about them. =.
In the fourth and fifth years Mr.. Cot
ture should be correlated. Soils COM
mon to a community should be noticed
and the crops that grow on the differ
ent soils. Simple weather conditions
should be noted-frosts, rain, etc.
Textbook for Sixth Year.
III lIC SlAIh yCdl a lCAlDOOh III dSll-
culture is provided. Working with
the text, Mr.. Cotton suggests that con-
crete examples of the text should be
used-bugs, worms, bees, wasps, etc.
1t would be easy, for example. to show
the life history of the different kinds
of insects. The birds and the wild
quadrupeds should be watched by the
pupils also.
The early work of the seventh year
dealing with the growth of plants,
should be mastered very carefully, in
Mr. Cottons opinion. The increase,
or at least the conservation, of the
soils fertility comes as part of the
work of this year also, and compare
tive studies may be made of soils of
different farms around the community.
Rotation of crops and the reason for it
comes in as part of this seventh year
work, too.
Experimental Work.
The eighth year work is similar to
that of the seventh, except that it
deals more particularly with the seed
seed selection, seed scoring, etc. At
this time all experimental work that
can be crowded in should be carried on
only by the school as a whole in the
school gardens, but also by the indi- |
yidual pupils at their homes.
The high school work in agriculture |
should be taken in connection with the |
physical geography and physics. A
collection and a classification of the
,oils, the merits of spring and fall |
treatment of soils, tilIage implements
md tillage operations-all of these
hould be taken pin the high schools
those of the city as well as those Of
he country and small towns.
This first bulletin urges the Cotton
of school work with
hat of the community itself the school
fife with the community life. Mr.. Cot
on contends that going to schools is a
art of living, ordinary, everyday liv-
ng, and that it is not a thing apart.

PRESENT METHODS.

Plainfield, Ind, Sept 19-The young
verely censured by John Kendall of
Danville Wednesday in the closing ses-
sion of the Western Yearly Meeting
of Friends. Mr. Kendall intimated that
the young people liked to shirk their
duties and that the older men and
women were doing most of the work.
Under the head of unfinished bust
ness Mr. Kendall also made an attack
upon the present method of transact
ing church business in the yearly meet
ing, declaring that it is not up to date
or business-like.
After quoting the old adage that
"Brevity is the soul of wit he said:

tie more of the soul of wit
Convention Is Busy.
The closing session of the annual
assembly was held Wednesday after
noon large amount of business
was transacted by this assembly,
which was one of the busiest in re-
cent years. During the last year the
church, all over the world, has re-
ceived considerable increase in mem
bership and the growth of the various
departments of church work has been
encouraging.
Wednesday afternoon a devotional
was held in the big tent.
These devotional meetings of which
three were held during the meeting,
we're one of the new features introduc-
ed at this assembly and have proved
very popular with the delegates. 1t is
probable that they will be one OF the
regular features of future yearly meet
ngs.

WOMAN FOUND DEAD.

CHICAGO, July ia dispatch to

says:
Mrs. Cinancita Genetti, a young Ital-
ian woman, was found dead in her bed
room yesterday with bullet wound
through her heart. The police have been
working on the mystery with no sue
cess whatever, as there is not the slight
est dlew Of a motive in the way of re-
venge or robbery to be had. The au-
have about concluded that the
murder is the work of the blackhand as

the woman had no enemies. There is
no evidence o. struggle in the room
where she was murdered and the crime

murderer left no trace of himself.
Neighbors did not hear the shot and no
suspicious characters have been noticed

TRUE AMERIcANISM.
An Episode in the vice-Presidential
Itinery-Section Boss is Alright.

An Episode in the Viee-Presidentiai
Itinery-Section Boss is Alright.
An episode in the Vice. Presidential
trip occurred yesterday that brought
our distinguished visitor away from the
glamOr of public lite. Through mis-
understanding the Viee-President lett
left the train at Goble. The committee
from this city had gone to Portland eA-
pecting to meet their guest there to
breakfast at the Portland Hotel. While
the committee were awaiting the arrival
OF the train from seattle which was one
hour late our Vice President and his
secretary, Russell King, were seated on
bench ut the Goble depot, strangers
in strang land. Mrs. L Ii. BIoss, wlle
OF the section foreman, espied them and
addproaching discovered the Vice
President. Calling to her husband she
said, Hey there, here's that Vice
President, l know him by the pictures.
Let's get breakfast for him.
Mr.. Bross invited the Vice-President
to his humble home and his distIn-
guished guest sat down to a breakfast
which he afterward declared was the
best he had eaten on his trip.
When the committee reached Goble
they found the Vice President and Bross
seated on baggage truck talking un-
concernedly Bross had entertained Mr,
Fairbanks by showing him through the
cold storage plant and other points Of
interest and it is said was as much at
home as if he had made speciality Of
distinguished people. Mr..
Fairbanks appreciated the American in
stincts of Bross and admired him for it.
