Preparation for the international
Live Stock Exposition at Chicago,
which will this year be held from De-
cember End to 9th, in no insignificant
task. Hundreds of artisans consuming
month or more are carrying out plans
laid down long previously. Material
by the train load is consumed and each
year finds new ideas adopted fcr the
benefit of show men and comfort of Wis
itors. In these prcliminaries thou
sands of dollars are expended, practic-
ally all of which is merely seasonabe
investment.
On the eve of the opening of the Ex-
position interest was never as keen.
All over the country host of exhibit
tors are getting live stock into show
condition. Breeding and fat stuff is
receiving finishing touches at the
hands of the master filters and feeders
of the country, loading day being an
xiously awaited. The public sees only
the elimination of this titanic effect.
Pupils in our schools are deficient in
the power of practical application.
This must be evident to every teacher
and parent who has ever tested the
matter by asking practical questions.
The pupil who, with the book before
him, can readily ''get the answers" to
the difficult problems in profit and loss
is wholly at loss to determine the
profit his father receives en- n hog
bought for 20 dollars and sold for %
dollars. He learns in school that
Green Bay and Stevens Point are in
the same latitude, and is not sure at
home that Green Bay is not between
Stevens Point and the North pole. He
learns that every proper noun mould
commence with capital, and then dir
ects his first love letter to miss Jennie
smith. He can say with accuracy that
there are 365 days, ) hours, As minutes
and 4S seconds IN year, but has no
idea of how many times the sun will
rise and set between two Christmases.
He can give correctly the principal
parts of see end go, and Immediately
after be guilty of saying, "l seen him,

Is this fault, this studying to no prac-
tical purpose, due to our system of ed
ucation? If it is, it is high time that
our leaders in educational matters
point out the fault and suggest the
remedy.

The city Friday and made call at the
PILOT Office.
Many communities that have applied
for farmers Institutes this year cannot
be accommodated Supt. George Nc
Kerrow, located at the College of Agri-
culture of the University of Wisconsin
at Madison, reports that 1873 meetings
have been planned for this winter.
These are located in almost every
county in the state. In fact there are
only two or three counties that will
not have institutes. In some cases
towns that had the institute last year
will be the meeting place again this
year but many of the meetings are
planned for new locations.
Mr.. Frank Hostak OF Cooperstown
was caller at the PILOT Office Tues
day.
At the meeting held here last Satur-
day evening, for the purpose OF ascer'
tanning whether or not the farmers
favored the establishment of a milk
condensary here, disclosed the fact
that with but very few exceptions the
farmers want a condensary. The ques-
ticn of whether it should be stock or
independent corporation was also put
before the meeting and was voted in
favor of an independent corporation,
A committee of five was appointed to
correspond with different companies to
have them establish the condensary
here. The committee consists of f. F.
Stelling, A.. H. Rusch, M. II. O'Dea,
Hugh Holleran, and l.. H. Kruger.
The meeting was largely attended and
proved very enthusiastic -Reedsville

Mothers sometimes say when a child
shows a vile temper and shrieks
good deal, that it would endanger his
life to punish him; perhaps so, but
you still more endanger his future if
you don't punish him. Many a gal

mothers lap. We wish we could write
it in imperishable, glowing letters on
The walls of every home-obedience
obedience, obedience Obedience to
law-to household law; to parental
authority; unquestioning, instant, ex-
act obedience. Obedience in the fam
lily, obedience in the school. Wher-
ever, from the beginning, from the
drst glimmeriug intelligence in the
child, there is expression of law, let
there be taught respect for it and
obedience to it. 1t is the royal road
to virtue; to good citizenship, it is the
only road.

Let US say to you, young man, that

FOLLY OF A pUelLlsT.

When Jack Johnson, negro pugilist,
defeated Jeffries last July he realized
in a single hour the whole ambition of
his life. For years he had trained
and worked and dreamed of the day
when the title OF world champion
should be his. SO far as known, his
career up to that time had been with
out serious misdemeanor. He was too
busy fighting his way to the top for
those digressions and lapses which,
sooner or later, tempt the successful
prize fighter to his ruin.
Since that day at Reno, however,
Johnson appears to have started out
to make an unmitigated nuisance Of
himself. He hasn5t had a battle in
ring but he has been in almost con-
tinuous trouble of one kird or an
other, and whatever respect, of its pc
culiar kind, anyone had for him has
gone glimmering Johnson has be-
come common brawler and law
breaker his fayorite pastime being the
exceeding of automobile speed limits
in various cities. San Francisco is
the place of his most recent exploit
of this character He actually spent
several hours in Jail there before
magistrate was found who would let
him out.
Johnson is only going the way of
the average successful pugilist. Be
ing possessed suddenly of wealth be-
yond his rosiest dreams, the negro is
doing his best to spend every cent as
fast as 1t can be done 1t is inevitable
that he will go broke. Being newt
able. it were better for all concerned
that this come soon. If he should be
brought to realization of his folly
he has still a chance to make some
thing of himself As long as he is
pampered by the police and escapes
the punishment earned by his offenses
he will continue to make fool of him
self and endanger lives more valuable
than his own.-Kansas City Journal,

Laundry Stamped for ld.ntlfxln,

In foreign countries some strange
methods are adopted for identifying
the contents OF the washtub. In some
pa4ts OF France linen is defaced with
the whole name and address Of the
laundry stamped upon 1t. and an ad-
ditional geometrical design to indicate
the owner of the property. In Bavaria
every patron of the washtub has q
number stamped in large characters
on his linen. In Bulgaria every laun-
dry has large number Of stamps en-.
grsved with designs, and in Russia
the laundries mark linen with threads
worked In arrow shapes. In some
Russian towns the police periodically
issue regulation for laundries.

SHIFT OF FARMING POPULATION.

There has been decrease in the
population of the agricultural sections
in many of the older states, according
to the recent census, but it does not
indicate that there are fewer farmers,
or that there is a decrease in the
prosperity of agriculture
The farming industry was never so
prosperous as it is at the present time
The decrease in the population in the
older states simply means that the
farms there are being sold, possibly to
the larger land owners, and that the
farmers are shifting to other places.
Many of them are coming to the south
west and Oklahoma is getting large
share. A great many go south, and
some are going to Canada.
Land in the older states has become
too highpriced for the farmer who
owns only little Of it and desires to
buy more. " nearly every instance the
land adjoining his farm is not for sale.
1t is owned by those who desire to
hold it. His only hope of becoming
farmer on larger scale is to go to
state where land may be acquired at
reasonable price Oklahoma offers
such opportunities.
Farming in Oklahoma is not hap
hazard industry, but a highly scientific
calling. Thefarmer coming from an
other state into Oklahoma will soon
find himself going along with the other
in the community acquiring an educa.
tion and high order OF training as a
scientific agriculturist
One of the best things that can be
said of Oklahoma farming land is that
it is ready for the plow. 1t does not
have to be cleared Of stumps and un-
derbrush. Taken in its undeveloped
state, crop can be raised the first
year.-Oklahoma City Times.
