DAIRYMEN WILL
HOLD MEETING
HEALTH DEPARTMENT OF
FICIALS AND FOOD IN
SPECTORS TO SPEAK
IN INTEREST OF
PURE MILK
SUPPLY.

in compliance with call issu-
ed by H. E. Barnard, state food
and drug commissioner, city and
state health department officials
OF Indiana will meet jointly with
representative dairymen of the
state on Sept. Z and s for the
purpose of discussing conditions
that will tend to better the sup,
ply of milk and other dairy prod
ucts throughout Indiana The
meeting will be held in the cham.
Der of the House of Representa-
tives at the State House in Indi-
annapolis, and arrangements will
be made to have the. session an
annual event.
The meeting is the first of its
kind to be held in Indiana, and
its institution is the result of a
similar meeting held some time
ago in the interests of a pure
water supply.
There are lot of dairymen
over the state who think they are
being legislated out of existence
by the enactment of laws pro-
viding for a better supply of
mill" said Mr.. Barnard, land
the meeting is called that dairy
men and health officers especially
the milk inspectors, may get to-
gether on the question and dis
cuss the merits of compulsory in
spection"
The chief topics which will be
discussed are the study of sani-
tary milk production and distri-
button and other problems which
confront the dairymen and the
state officials. Primarily, how
ever Mr.. Barnard says, it is to
hear the producers side of the in
spection proposition and to ascer-
tain whether the dairymen think
the laws providing for the in
spectors' work are unjust.
Ivan c. Weld, Government
dairy inspector, will be in attend
ance and will give an Illustrated
lecture and some expert informa-
ton on the subjects.
DR.. A. w. Biting, state veter-
marian, will discuss the question
of tuberculin tests of dairy cattle.
DR.. c. l.. Hoover, city milk in
spector of Richmond, and DR.. E.
{. Mcintosh, city milk inspector
at Terre Haute. will speak on the
same subject.
Arrangements have been made
70 have the sessions held during
the first days of the State Fair, in
order to insure a larger attend
lnce.

Miller Pleased With Prospects in
Starke.

Charles w. Miller was in his
usual good humor when seen at
the Oliver in South Bend last
night. He had just got in from
Knox, where he held a meeting

said was large and enthusiastic.
I'm fact" he added, "the meeting
and what | heard and saw at
Knox satisfies me that Starke is
all right"
Tonight Mr.. Miller will have
a meeting in Winamac, Thursday

SAYS INSTITUTE
IS BETTER
STATE SUPERINTENDENT
SAYS TEACHERS MEET
INGS ARE BEST THIS
YEAR-FRIVOL-
ITY is THING
OF PAST.

Fassett A. Cotton, State Super
intendent of Public Instruction
who has been travelling over the
State for some time, visiting
county Institutes, declares the in
stitutes are better this year than
ever. before. Many Improvements
are noticeable, he says, and he
believes all of this presages great
good for the schools during the
coming year.
There is less OF the frivolous
in the institutes this year" said
Mr.. Cotton. IL remember insti-
tutes in which nearly all of the
time of the teachers was taken up
with listening to the jokes told
by the instructors. This is not
true this year. The instructors
are getting down to business, and
are giving the teachers some
thing that is worth while.
1T is noticeable that the in
structors are giving more instruc-
ton of practical worth this year.
Heretofore, it seems, the instruc-
tors have many times shot wide
of the mark. They have failed
20 study conditions in the county
where the institute was held. For
this reason they have failed to do
the teachers the greatest possible
good. This year it is evident that
the instructors have been study
ing the conditions in the counties
where they spoke.
Il am also greatly pleased with
the class of music which is being
taught this year. Rag-time selec-
toms, so disquieting to the con.
scientions school teacher who is
trying to get the great est good
out of the institute work, are not
on the list any more. Only the
best musical selections are being
used and the music work in all of
the institutes | have visited has
been excellent Another thing
that is noticeable rs that the
teachers are taking more interest
than usual in the work this year.
They are asking questions in re-
gard to their duties and apparent
ly are trying to get the most ben
eft out of the talks of the in
structors."
Mr.. Cotton is now sending out
circular letters to the school Off
Gals, calling their attention to
the fact that the State Board of
Education will advertise for bids
on the following textbooks
Arithmetics. biographies, readers
and copybooks. This announce
merit is sent cut so that school
trustees and others who have
charge of the buying of textbooks
will know that there is likely to
be a change and, therefore, will
not stock ur too heavily on such
books.

Kosciusko County Farm Brings
About $4,000.

A deal was consummated at
Pierceton Monday whereby Earl
Taber, OF the Commercial bank,
OF Argos, came into possession OF
the largest tract of virgin timber
in Indiana, of Frank Elder. The
exact consideration is held a Sec
ret, but it is known that it is up
wards of $4,000. Nearly a
year ago Mr.. Elder offered the
400 acres for sale at an auction
but refused to accept bid of less
than $4,000, and the property
was not sold. The purchaser
will put the timber on the market.

DELIVERS INTER-
ESTINC LECTURE
PROF. M. H. JACKSON
SPEAKS ON BRAIN AND
BACKBONE" BEFORE
INSTITUTE-MUSI-
CAL PROGRAM
TONIGHT

shall County Teachers Institute
was delivered by Prof. NJ. H.
Jackson, Superintendent of the
Teachers Training School of
Grand Rapids, in the Circuit
Court room Tuesday evening.
The room was crowded to its ca
paclty, and the interesting and
instructive lecture was appreciat-
ed by all present. The subject
chosen by Prof. Jackson was
Brain and Backbone" Backbone
represented the nervous develop
ment in human being, brain,
was the mental in the professors
lecture. The speaker showed how
good or bad habits were formed
in youth. To form any habit, just
the same as in learning to walk,
or talk, required a mental exer-
ton. Once habit is acquired, it
becomes a part of the mechanical
makeup OF man,-is a nervous
development, development of the
backbone"
The speaker said that in the old
days the three RS" Reading.
Riting, and 'Rithmetic, were
taught in school, now the system
is different, three "C's" are the
standard, namely: Culture, Con-
troll and Capacity. Upon the
culture OF capacity depends who'll
ly and relatively the enjoyment
OF life. The old saying "When
ignorance is bliss, It's folly to be
wise is according to the profes,
sor absolutely false. To enjoy a
pleasure, or life, one must have
a capacity for enjoying. The
speaker said he once knew a man
in his home town who should
have been perfectly happy ac-
cording to the old maxim. The
man in question never had any
sickness, owed no debts, had no
enemies, but that man was a
stone man on monument. He
had no troubleS,-but could nor
enjoy life because he had no ca,
pacity. A step higher than the
stone man is the ignorant man.
Perhaps he has no worries, but
neither has he enough education
to enjoy himself in the deepest
sense of enjoyment.
In developing this line the
worth of education was brought
out by the speaker. He said sta
tistics showed that every day
spent by boy in school after his
fifth grade was worth $40, in after
life. If the worth of a common
school graduate to a community
Is represented by 1, then the rela-
tive worth OF high school grad
uate is 80, and college graduate
500. These figures were the re-
suit of actual statistics, and relate
OF course, to the average student
mentioned above.
The underlying thought of the
lecture throughout was sugges-
tons to teachers and parents how
to raise children. The talk was
interspersed with quotations of
Scotch and English poets, at
which the speaker excelled, and
showed familiarity, and study,
along that line.
