Farmers Institutes for June, 1908.
Madison, Wis. April IA, 'o8.


We are planning to hold sum
mer Institutes in northern Wiscon-
sin in June, at points in the state
that are too far north to make
winter meetings advisable. If
your town has a hall that can be
furnished free in which to hold a
one day meeting and your farmers
and business men wish an Institute
some time during June, write 10
this office for a blank petition.
Only limited number of these
meetings can be held, SO if you
wish meeting for your tow n
write at once, as the earliest ap-
pIications will receive the most
favorable consideration.

A Boys Essay on the Editor.

Il don't know how newspapers
come to be in the world, and
don't think God does, for he haint
got nothing to say about them in
the Bible. | think the editor is
the missing link we read of, and
stayed in the bushes until after
the flood; and then came out and
wrote the thing up. and has been
here ever since. | don't think he
ever died. | never saw dead
one and never heard of one get
ting licked. Our paper is mighty
good one; but the editor goes with
out underclothes all winter and
don't wear any socks and pa amt
paid his subscription since the
paper started. asked pa if that
was why the editor had to suck
the Juice out of snowballs in Win
ter and 90 to bed when he had a
shirt washed in summer. Then pa
got mad and took me out in the
Woodshed and licked me awful
hard. If the editor makes mis-
takes folks say he ought TO be
hung; but if doctor makes any
mistakes he buries them and peo-
pie dassent say nothing because
doctors can read and write Latin.
When the editor makes mistakes
there is lawsuits. and swearing,
and a big fuss; but If a doctor
makes one there is funeral, cut
flowers and perfect silence. A
doctor can use word yard long
without him or anyone knowing
what it means; but if the editor
uses one he has to spell it. If the
doctor goes to see another mans
wife he charges the man for the
visit; but if the editor should go
he gets charge OF buckshot. ANY
college can make doctor to or
der but an editor has to be born
Exchange.

CASTRO LEAVES FRANCE.
states In Interview That He Would
Settle Differences.

Paris, Dec. 14.-President Castro Of
Venezuela and his party left here
Sunday for Cologne, where a consulta-
ton of physicians will be held to de-
termine upon the advisability of an
operation on the president. If an
operation is found necessary DR. Israel
probably will perform it at Berlin.
Castro kept himself closely con
fined to his hotel here, refusing TO
give out any statement to newspaper
men, except through some member OF
his suite. On the train Sunday, how
ever, he accorded an interview to a
representative of the Temps, saying
that as he was leaving France he felt
a liberty to receive journalist The
interview, while guarded, fully con-
firms the representations made by
Castro at Santander to the effect that
re wanted to settle VeneZuela's diplo-
matte differences and so far as
France is concerned, had already
made the first steps in that direction.
He said, however, that everything for
the moment must be subordinated to
the restoration of his health.

Woman's Education.

Just as certain college professors
and magazine writer's are well under
way in the work of proving that the
higher education of women is all
wrong and that the general system OF
female education is defective in that
1t does not teach women how to he
good wives and mothers, along comes
Dr. Lyman Abbott with the assertion
that 1t is not the proper object of edu-
cation to furnish woman with Ian
tern wherewith to aid her in q search
for a husband. I'VE have now got
wholly away says DR.. Abbott, from
the idea that the object of a woman's
education is to make her a better or
nament for the parlor or more capa-
BILE hired servant A woman should no
more be educated to be a wife and
mother than a man should be educated

Hope for Central America.

The international bureau of central
American republics announces a COM
mendable purpose. 1t is proposed to
make uniform the civil, commercial
and criminal legislation of the five sig
natory republics, to establish uniform
customs anud monetary system, and to
work for the general development of
commerce and industry. The success
of the effort would be seriously doubt
ed were reliance placed upon the sta
bility of central American purpose
alone. But, says the Boston Herald,
back of this is the spirit of the inter
national bureau of American republics,
and particularly the governments of
the United States and Mexico, each Of
which is determined, for selfish as well
rs unselfish interest, that constant tur-
moil in central America shall be
checked. The five republics will be
given chance to work out their own
salvation, and good government will
be assured the moral backing of larger
powers and more substantial support

CASTOR Thomson. the minister OF mar

more than 80 explosions on French
