The New Governors.

New Governors have entered
upon their terms in twenty-nine
States. Probably the most seri.
Gus problem confronting them is
the need of economy,a word that
throws a GOODNESS over the meet
ing of Legislators anywhere.
Public expenditures are rising
much faster everywhere than
eiteer population or wealth.
The trouble is not primarily
due to higher salaries. Those are
low for the grade of service re-
quired, compared with other
business. The chief difficulty is
in higher standards of the peo-
pie. They demand better schools
more nomal schools, expert sup
ervision, better equipped jails,
asylums and other public build
ings.
The question can we afford

savings could be made if the vim

Kind Act.

A travelling man who lives at
Richmond was making a trip over
his territory a few weeks ago in
his automobile and as he was
skimming along the pike in an
adjoining county he noticed an
old man walking in front of him
He stopped his car and asked
him to ride. The old gentleman ac-
copied the invitation with thanks
saying that he was a carpenter
and had just quit work and was
very tired and had ten miles to
walk.
On the way the carpent r
ascertained the travelling mans
business and obtained his address,
the result was few days after
the travelling man received a large
order for metal rofhng and other
hardware for two large stock
barns that the carpenter was
erecting
This travelling man believes
that all the little acts of kindness
you extend t o your fellowlnan
as you pass down the journey
will b e rewarded some day,
some way. = Harr o d s burgs

Schools and Roads.

/
being said about rual schools and
the building up of the country
schools. In this connection
there always comes up the ques-
ton of good roads, the subject OF
schools in the country always
being intimately associated, in
the public mind, with good roads.
The two are close together. With
out good roads we cannot hope
to have good country schools for
the children who attend the
schools must have way to reach
the school house.
The rural school is the basis
of our educational system and
we can raise Kentucky's stand
ing educatiOnally only by build
ing up the schools of the country
districts. There are many more
children in the rural schools than
in the city schools Sc the country
schools are the more important.
If we had good rural schools we
would certainly have good high
schools.
But until Kentucky builds
good roads, there is not much
reason to hope for any greater
improvement in the rural schools.
The schools are ment to be
places in which children are
taught, and the school is a sue
cess in proportion to the number
of pupils to attend. If every
county had good roads there
would be no trouble about the
in the schools.
Kentucky has the finest road
material in the world
right along the thoroughfares in
the mountains and the bluegrass
yet the roads go ruin for want of
intelligent work. There is no
excuse for the counties of the
limestone district not having
good roads.
The next Legislature will be
asked to provide a means Of con-
structing good roads. The rural
school will not ask for legislation
it not being practicable to make
cool schools by legislation. But
if the State builds, good roads,
the rural schools will note the
change. Frankfort News.

Growing Special Corn.

The Illinois agriculture exper-
iment station has been breeding
corn in an effort to produce and
fix strains that have opposite
characteristics a S to chemical
composition. By careful selection
through period of ten years the
station has corn very rich i n
starch and sugar and others high
in oil and low in oil contents.
All were bred from a singl ear.
None of the especially bred corn
is for sale. When the experiment
is completed no doubt it can be
obtained. Ordinary corn is def
cient in protein for feeding por-
poses and a high content of that
constituent is desirable.
Soon a farmer can grow one
field of corn to supply starch and
glucose factorys another to fur
nish raw material for corn oil
manufactures and still another
to fournish corn for feeding in
case an abundance of valuabl e
food is desired.
