SCHOOL CENSUS
 SHOWS CURIOUS FACTS
INCIDENTALLY A POPULATION OF
 27,9oo.
Also That Rooseveltian Precepts Have
 Been Neglected.

The school census for this county, now nearly complete, shows a satls- factory increase over the figures of year ago and also develops some curl ous facts about the children of school age In the first place, the number of of children of school age in this dis trict is 2,716, against 2,410 of last year, a gain of 121A per cent. The gain in the Tempe school district is 13 per cent; in Osborn district, 25 per cent. In no district has the gain been below 8 per cent, while in some localities it has been as much as 40 per cent. Su- perintendent Fulton believes that the average gain in the county will be In the neighborhood of 9 per cent.
 A F. Egley, who had charge of the census in this district ascertained that in some localities Rooseveltian prin- ciples have not been properly observed. For instance, in the thickly settled territory bounded on the south by Washington street; on the east by Seventh street; on the west by Seventh avenue, and on the north by the Me Dowell road, there are only 4OS chill dren of school age. In the territory not nearly half as large, and much more sparsely settled, bounded by the Yuma road, Seventh avenue. the Santa Fe tracks and the Mcdowell road, there are 225 children. That is more like it ought to be, but still not enough children for the population.
 The territory lying south of this dis trict. and bounded on the south by Washington street, embracing Van Bu- ren. Monroe. Adams and the north side of Washington, there are only 70 chil- dren.
 In the thickly settled block bounded by Jefferson. Washington and Second and Third avenues, there is only one child In another thickly settled block southwest of that there are three chill dren of school age.
 From these statistical facts, Mir. Egg ley concludes that the ratio commonly used in estimating the population of town, based on the school census, will have to be considerably increased in the case of Phoenix. Calculators gen. orally use five or five and one-half for ratio, but MT Egley believes that 10 would be nearer the mark, in which case the population of Phoenix based on the school census would exceed 27,- OOO It happens that these figures are about the same as the estimate based on Bucks new directory.
 But the matter of more immediate importance. and which is not one of theory or conjecture, is the provision to be made for this additional 25 per cent of children in the county. The schools everywhere have been crowded for more than year Twenty-Five per cent more children means 25 per cent more school money, to say nothing of the large amount that will be required in the way of greater improved facili ties for handling the increase.

p1a.srY OR COTTON FIELD.

The old Mosaic Laws forbade the use of pork in any form. and modern science has confirmed the wisdom of the patriarch in making this Law The flesh of the hog is in digestible: so is the fat. Food prepared with lard is unwholesome. To meet the demand for cooking fat that Is pure and easily di- gested. The N. k. Feirbank Company. Chicago. have put on the market shortening called COTTOLENE, made from refined veg etable oil. This cooking fat can be used In any and every way that lard now is. and can even be used in place of butter in making fine pastry. Contrast the source of lard-the filthy pig-sty. with the source of COTTO- LENE-the pure. white cotton boil. and one can readily understand the great demand for this pure. vegetable shortening in preference to the Eat of the hog.
