RURAL SCHOOL TO HELP FARMER
Tests and
Stock, Spray Trees, Etc.

The country teachers Of Illinois at
their annual meeting in Normal, July
16, approved the plans of Prof. Fred l..
Charles, country school specialist of
the university OF Illinois, to help them
in the details of teaching agriculture.
A few of his ideas are as follows: The
country school of tomorrow will make
economic contributions to the commun-
ity far beyond what is dreamed of TO-
day. It will test the milk, try out the
seed. introduce new varieties of cult
waited plants, judge the stock, search
out the aptitudes of the soil, prune aud
spray the fruit trees, establish higher
ideals of landscape plans, and in many
other ways build up values and serve
to tie the affections of youth to the
land
Can Send Speakers to Country.
Often it is possible to receive from
the university staff, with no charge
other than actual expenses, a speaker
more than ready to assist teacher and
farmer in a statewide movement for
a better agriculture. The closest CO
operation is invited between the
schools and the college of agriculture.
That project so commendable In

is a grand, good medicine that is
free from the dangerous drugs that

1t is safe for the baby and in larger

all ages because it is delicious to the

hiring of an assistant to the county
superintendent of schools was laid on
the table after Superintendent S. J.
Ferguson had appeared before the
board and stated that he believed he
would be able to run his Office without
an assistant provided help was tender
ed during several months when work
was exceedingly heavy. 1t is under
stood that this extra help will be given
him.
Pay No Bills.
The finance committee found 1t inn
possible at this time to raise any
money, and the result is that the board
decided to pay no bills until the De-
cember session. The committee at
tempted to raise $4,000 in anticipa-
tion of the next tax levy, but the banks
refused to advance it. They state that
money is very scarce at this time and
that they could not let any out for less
than per cent interest while the law
does not permit the supervisors to pay
more than per cent for borrowed
money The banks believe that in De
cember the money market will be in
such shape as to permit them to make
the loan and then the county's bills
will be paid

COUNTY REJECTS
BRIDGE ESTIMATE
State Engineers Plan Calls
for a 100000 Structure
at Colona.
TO CARRY INTERURBANS
Idea OF Board Members Is That Span
Should Be for Wagons and Pc
destrians Only.

The board of supervisors adjourned
the business for the September term.
Among the last matters taken up was
the Colona bridge question. The COM
mittee which had conferred with the
committee from Henry county in re-
gard to connecting the two counties by
means of a bridge over Rock river at
Colona, reported that plans and speci-
f1catiops had been received from the
state engineers Office calling for a
heavy structure capable of holding in
terurban trains and costing 100000, ex-
elusive of the approaches. With the
approaches the entire outlay would
probably be in the neighborhood of
$780, 900, and the committee did not
favor such an enormous expenditure.
1t had been led to believe that the
bridge was to be a wagon bridge and
that the total cost would not be in ex-
cess of $4,000. Supervisor Eastman
moved that the plans and estimates be
refused and that new ones be ordered
drawn in accordance with the idea of
using it for a wagon bridge only. The
resolution was adopted and the bridge
matter seems effectually disposed of
for some time to come.
Tax Levy Authorized.
The county clerk was authorized to
extend against the county tax levy of
$119,850, to meet the current expenses
of the county during the coming year.
This includes all salaries of county Of
ficers and the entire cost of the bust
ness of the county during the year.
The levy is practically the same as
last year, though the addition of two
new officials-probate judge and clerk
made the total levy somewhat higher
than was formerly necessary.
The county infirmary committee re-
ported that the county institution is
without fire protection of any kind,
and the board ordered the committee
to prepare a recommendation as to the
best means of protecting the infirmary
from the flames. The report is to be
made at the December meeting

upon the county to aid in the erection
of a bridge in that section was read,

BRAZIL HAS IRON ORE,
BUT POOR FACILITIES.
Big Republic May RepIenish Dwin-
ding Supply of World.

A further report regarding the
worlds dwindling iron supply has
been submitted to the Stockholm geo.
latest official information supplied to
the congress by the Brazilian govern
ment regarding the sources Of supply
that exist in Brazil.
Reviewing the possibilities Of Brazil
as an iron exporting country, the re-
port says that rich iron ore deposits
are found all along the coast line from
Santa Catharina to Ceara and also far
Their inland Official statistics men
ton fifty-two great iron ore deposits In
the state of Minas Geraes alone. The
ore here is of high grade purity and
contains from 60 to 80 per cent pure
iron.
The itabirite ore deposits near Cara
ca are estimated to be able to cover
the worlds annual needs, say 50,o0O,-
600 tons, for sixteen years. In seven
other states of Brazil high grade ore
is found and medium grade ore in all
the other states. The ore deposits In
Minas Geraes are situated some 300
miles from the coast, but the govern
ment is about to lay down a railroad
to the port Of Victoria, north Of Rio
Janefro.
Brazil would be the richest iron pro-
ducing country of the future, the re-
port concludes, if it possessed coal sup
plies in corresponding quantities. That
is. however. not the case. and as by

proved by educational leaders as con-
solidation of schools, should languish

University Teacher in Country school.
Thoroughly competent teachers who
have received training in the normal
school and university and who are in
fullest sympathy with country life,
should be sent into the field wherever
they are welcomed - to help in the in
PRODUCTION of agricultural nature study
into the rural schools. The difficulties
to an inexperienced teacher would
largely vanish after a week of per-
sonal assistance from such a visitor.
The success of this movement, after
all we may do. lies ultimately in the
hands of the individual country teach
er, and it is about her personality and
preparation that we must center our
greatest effort
These demonstration teachers
should go at the call of the state of
county superintendent to the localities
needing them. They are as necessary
to the development of this subject in
the rural schools as are the demon
stration experts in soil fertility or road
building. A corps of demonstration
teachers supplemented by the other
agencies mentioned in his address)
would greatly shorten the slow pro
cess of introducing agriculture.
Worked Well In Two Schools.

year in two rural schools near the
university gave ample evidence of the
value of the demonstration teacher

are now ready to take up the work
with appreciation and confidence.
In the special trains carrying agri-
cultural instructors to the farmers
with the teachings of science, the chill
dren have been grossly neglected, al
though the crowds OF them have come
with open eyes and hungry minds
searching for intellectual crumbs. Edu-
Gators should not only accompany
these trains, but respond to the call
for help that comes insistently from
the school room. But It must be under
stood that this worthy plan of college
extension for practical and greatly
needed help in rural community and
country school, requires some money
from the state, which is asked by the
country teachers, and which should
be urged by farmers and supplied by
