4ne commissioner says. 'Ine significant
fact is found not In the larger gross fig
ures Of attendance, expenditures and the
like, but rather in the fact that the facili-
ties provided nave more than kept pace
with the increase in demand due to the
growth Of the country. There are. commu-
mites in the United States today which are
spending more than $50 per pupil each year
In the education Of their children. The
education of today is undoubtedly better
than the education of even only twenty
years ago. The increased cost has meant
higher salaries for teachers, fewer pupils
a teacher, better buildings and more and
better books and other educational equip
ment. In the words OF President Eliot:
Our forefathers expected miracles Of
prompt enlightenment. and we are seri-
ously disappointed that popular education
has not defended us against barbarian
vices like drunkenness and gambling,
against increase of crime and insanity, and
against innumerable delusions, impostures
and folies. We ought to spend more pub
lie money on schools because the present
expenditures do not produce all the good
results which were expected and may rea-
sonably be aimed at"
Nevada has the highest yearly expendi-
ture, $72.15 a pupil, followed by New York
with $3.50. Montana with $40. 40 and Cali
fornia with 1929, In the south the per
pupil expenditures range from S6.37 for
South Carolina to S2o.S for West Virginia.
The new state Of Oklahoma spends SIS. 70,
New Mexico $19.46, while Arizona, with
fo.4l, spends 1915 a pupil a year more
than Oklahoma and New Mexico combined.
One-third Of the states spend from S25 to
$40 a pupil. The fact that one-fourth spend
less than SIS and one-fourth spend more
than S5 is an indication, says the com
missioner, "of the great variety in support

BRER FOX GIVES
UP ITS MOTOR
SPEED MACHINERY OF NOTED RACING
BOAT SOLD.

The motor that was the moving
spirit of the Br'er Fox II. in its rec
ord-breaking feats on the Ohio and
Mississippi rivers will be the con-
trolling power of a boat that will race
for the international championship
out East: First however, the Br'er
Fox will enter the struggle for the
Mississippi river championship in the
regatta to be held at Peoria, H.,
August 81, where purse of $500 in
cash is the prize offered.
Then the motor will be taken out
and shipped East to F. Y. Beach
editor of the Scientific American who
is ambitious to win the international
championship. The Br'er Fox hull,
motorless, will be returned to Gin
cinnati, for the motor is to be in
stalled in an entirely new boat, built
especially for the international races.
This is of a construction known as
the gliding hull, so built that it
barely draws two inches of water,
and slides along the surface with the
least possible resistance.
Editor Beach has figured out that
65-horse-power motor like that OF
the Br'er Fox will serve the speed
purpose in such hull as well as
would an engine of higherpower. He
sent his representative to make the
recent trip down The Ohio from Pitts
burg in the Bier Fox and the lat
ter's report was SO favorable that
Beach made an offer to the Dean
brothers for the motor, which was
accepted, and he will get the engine
after the Peoria races.

Cause of Bitter Milk.

Recent experiments on the Ontario
Experiment Farm show that the yeast
like micro-organism of bitter torula is
the cause of much bitter milk and
cheese. Factories in that section have
complained of the bitterness of the
milk, and as consequence the expert
ment station has conducted extensive
investigations as to the cause. Gull
lures of the torula were added to milk
and cheese that had been sterilized,
and in each case a bitter taste was
the result. 1t was not found in milk
drawn into sterilized dishes, but was
found regularly in mixed milk, in the
solutions used for can washes, and
also on the leaves of trees under
which the cans were habitually kept.
The remedies are to cool the milk
promptly and to guard it from infec-
ton of nay kind. All cans and other
utensils should be carefully washed
and sterilized by heat. The Connect
cut experiment station discovered sew
eral years ago that a species of bac-
terra was the cause of bitter milk and
cream. This can be rendered harm
less by sterilization.
