NEW IDEA IN SCHOOLS

Today the visitor to the Page coun-
ty. Iowa, schools will not hear many
recitations about Bulgaria, Baluchi-
stan or Mesopotamia, but he will find
the boys and girls, their faces eager
and shining, at work over a Babcock
milk tester, or a seed termination
box, reading the experiment station
or the department of agriculture bull
letins which are to be found by the
dozens on the library racks, judging
corn, testing seed, studying weeds and
insects and solving problems express
ed in homely. everyday terms with
which they are perfectly familiar.
Such problems, worked day after
day, with practical object lessons al
ways before him, make an alert,
practical farm boy out of the Bull
saria-confused parrot-blockhead of
yesterday. The effect has been no.
ticeable in the homes as well as in
the schools. Miss Field, the county
superintendent, narrates this actual
experience in her county. Farmer A
wanted to buy stack of hay from
Farmer B, but as they could not agree
as to the amount OF hay in the stack
and neither had reliable rule for
computing 1t. A needed the hay very
much and when he went home at
night he looked tired and worried. At
supper his wife noticed this and asked
