Lenox, Mass, July 29.-After an all day of conference of the leading gov ernment prosecuting officers and Sen ator Frank B. Kellogg of Minnesota, one of the special counsel for the gov ernment in certain civil suits, 1t was announced by Attorney General Bon aparte that every effort would be made to secure a revision of the re- cent decision and opinion of the Unfit ed States circuit court of appeals in the case of the Standard oil company of Indiana, and that an application for a re-argument of the case and motion for a modification of the opin- ion would be submitted 10 that court. Although no time is fixed, this action by the government, will be taken at the earliest possible moment, while the pending prosecution against the Standard oil company and all other prosecutions in which the giving or receiving of rebates is charged, will be pressed to trial The decision to take this action was unanimous on the part of the five men who participated in the conference.
 Attorney General Bonaparte calleI to the conference solicitor General H. M. Hoyt of Washington; Edwin M Sims of Chicago, United States district attorney for the northern district of Illinois; James II. Wilkerson of Chi cago, MT. Sims flrst assistant, and Frank E. Kellogg of Minnesota. MT. Hoyt, MT. Sims and Mir. Wilkerson ar rived here yesterday and had con ference in the afternoon with the at torney general. Mir Kellogg arrived this morning and participated in the two conferences which were held to- day, and which ended with the giving out of the statement by Attorney General Bonaparte. The statement was as follows:
 The government will make every er. fort In its power to secure revision of the recent decision and opinion of the circuit court of appeals for the sev- enth circuit in the case of the Stand ard OH company of Indiana, either by the court of appeals itself, or, If nes- essary, by the supreme court of the United States. The gentlemen who have been in consultation with me al united in my opinion that In the in. terest of the impartial and effective administration of our laws, such ac. ton on the part of the government [. imperatively demanded by the circum stances of the case and the possible consequences If this opinion should stand as an authority without ques ton by the government.

DES MONIES, Dec. 25.-(Special)-A
farm with every schoolhouse In Iowa is
the novel suggestion made by Secretary
Wesley Green of the State horticultural
society Mr.. Green recommends that In
connection with introducing the teachinR
OF agriculture in the public schools that
the practical side be taught.
The value Of agricultural training
should not be underestimatcd,' said Mr..
Green, In commenting on the subject. ct
believe that every school district should
purchase in connection with its school a
certain amount Of land to be cultivated.
the size being regulated in proportion To
the attendance. In large city high schools
1t might be necessary to have quite a mar
Gel of land. Provide a dwelling on this
land for the teacher and keep him the year
around. During the seasons of planting.
growing and harvesting agricultural pro-
ducts he could require the assistance OF the
students of agriculture and give them prac-
teal lessons in agriculture. This would
be very effective. Then increase the stud
les Of the State Agricultural college to
the greatest efficiency and let the lower
schools prepare the students for this state
college.
There are a great many, 1 know, who
VIII make light of this teaching of agricul-
ture in the public schools. When a state
college for teaching agriculture was first
proposed, 1t was made fun of. No one casts
any reflections on that institution today.
The time Is coming when this line will be
taught in public schools and believe
the method that should be adopted is to
have a practical farm with every school
under supervision of the instructor. The
use of the land and the harvest of the
product would go a long way toward
paying the salary of the teacher"
Josephine Wilson, one of the most notori-
Gus women in Iowa, may be released from
the state reformatory tomorrow. An order
has been sent there for her release by the
state Board of Parole, providing her mind
is clear. She is being examined by ply
sicians who fear that her dlsslpated life
and following long confinement have weak
ened her mind to the point Of insanity.
She was committed from Oskaloosa several
years ago on the charge of keeping a dis
orderly house. She was once paroled and
then recommitted. Then she was sent to
Clarinda, released as cured and sent back.
Now she is again in the reformatory,
Preachers and politicians have petltioned
for her liberty. Others protested against 1t.

for a period of twenty-three years. There
was about a bushel of the product from
each ear on exhibition, and 1t was easy
to note the difference. In bushels, one row
yielded at the rate of fifty-eight and one
fifth bushels to the acre, while the other
yielded but twenty-seven and three
eighths bushels per acre, giving a most
forceful illustration and demonstration that
1t pays the corn grower to take all the pre-
