WAR STORIES I'M THE SCHOOLS.

Some of the superintendent of
schools in various cities and countries
throughout the country have decided
that in teaching history to young pu-
pills the details of battles should BE
omitted. 1t is complained that in sew
seral histories of the United States
used as text books the stories of
slaughter in the battles of the Civil
war are agonizing and tend to either
shock the child or make him callous.
Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, the head of
the Chicago city schools, very sem
sible woman, says it would be we'll to
omit the lurid descriptions, especially
as when the ordinary teacher attempts
to explain the details of campaigns
she is talking about something she
knows not.
This position is no doubt we'll taken
so far as young pupils are concerned.
Children are too prone to be fond of
grisly horrors, as is shown by their
fondness for such tales as Jack. the
Giant Killer" Little Red Ridinghood''
and other fairy lore in which somebody
or something has to bleed Perhaps it
is these ensanguined nursery tales that
have been told to each generation for
hundreds of years that keeps alive the
instinct of cruelty.
1t is not desirable to suppress the
fighting instinct. Our Civil war was
fought mostly by boys 1t was the
youth of the country that saved the
union. But it is better to lay first a
foundation of humanity and virtue and
upon this foundation the manhood suf-
ficient to sacrifice life, if necessary, in
defense of home and country, can be
developed.
When the child is old enough to COM
prehend the meaning OF patriotism and
the rationale of war, then it is time to

be lower again, all due to natural con-
ditions. The wholesale price of the
common and ordinary cuts of beef is
not especially higher than in other
have al participated to the fullest ex-
tent in the wholesale prices realized
on all edible products. The prices of
meats are no higher in proportion
than the prices of corn, wheat, oats,
butter, eggs and poultry I believe,
however, there is a general extrava-
gance on the part of the American
people in purchasing their supplies,
which can be modified by a closer in
spection of the commodities pur-
chased and the particular need. Or
ders for food are sometimes given by
telephone, or with even less atten-
ton, and the expense incident to the
de livery of goods so purchased should
paration and cooking of the cheaper
cuts Tor "A percent of the beef is be-
ing given considerable attention by
domestic science authorities, with a
view to increasing the use of the
cheaper cuts, which are just as nu-'
tritious as the rib and loin cuts, there
by effecting a saving in the cost of
living This work is commendable,
and should be continued"

GROWING TREES FOR PROFIT.

Growing trees for profit is becoming
more and more of an accepted industry
in every part of the country 1t has
already been demonstrated that there
is a good profit in forestry, whether the
forest is acquired already stocked by
nature, or the incestor plants his own
trees and it strikes one as rather re-
markable that a periodical Of such
standing and authority as the Engi--
neering News should ask: who can
be expected to plant trees for use so
years hence?"
Why $50 years." There are OF
course, certain trees that would not
yield a profitable growth of timber even
in that period; but there are many
others that will yield profitable re-
turns in very much less time. If we
leave out of consideration the fruit
trees-as we infer the News has In
mind the growing of trees for fuel or
for timber, chiefly the latter-there are
many kinds of trees that will yield
their grower good profit within a rea-
sonable lifetime Even the cedars will
give a fair account of themselves in
something like 40 or As years. 1t is use
less for anyone that expects to reap
the harvest to plant slow growing
oaks; but the catalpa, for instance, will
yield handsome returns in compare
lively few years.

coal operators that the strike of Iowa
miners may last for months on ac-
count of the large increase in wages
demanded by the men.
1t was learned today Iowa miners
would insist on an increase of ten
cents a ton on screen picked coal with
a corresponding increase for other va
rieties. Operators declare they will
never consent to such an increase.
Miners are equally insistent they
will not agree to a five cent increase
such as is demanded in the central
district

CHICAGO, March 31.-Diversified
farming is pointed to by Louis F.
Swift of Chicago as the force which
will modify present living costs by
increasing supplies, Mr.. Swift, presi-
dent Of Swift & company, being the
contributor of an article in the April
planning the high prices that prevail,
"that the movement of people from
the country towns and farms to the
larger cities, as well as the rapid in
crease in the population of America,
has a more than realized bearing on
this subject. I also believe that the
further development of diversified
farming, including the raising of live
stock, and the constant vigilance of
the farmer to insure the greatest yields
rather, perhaps, than the greatest
acreage, will make the necessities of
life cheaper by lessening the cost of
production. The wholesale prices of
choice beef, pork and mutton are high
err than normal, caused by the high
price of livestock on the hoof, which
is sympathetic with and governed a
good deal by the high prices of grain
and hay throughout the United States.
This range in prices goes in periods,
often low for few years, then high
for a few years, and, no doubt, will
