'pOORI.N GRAMMAR

STATE INSPECTOR McLENAHAr
SAYS IOWA PUPILS ARE
DEFICIENT.

| Des Moines Oct 4.-Iowa boys an
girls are deficient in English gimme
and algebra when they come to TT
the entrance examinations to college
and universities. This Is the conclus
ion reached by State High School In
spector McClenahan, who has jus
completed a four weeks tour of tht
state, visiting the accredited higi
schools.
81 find thatlin practically allsof tn
accredited high schools which Wis
tied the boys and girls are woefull!
deficient in English grammar and al
zebra" said he this morning. Il be
lieve that our Iowa teachers Of these
branches are as competent as those OF
any other state, but why the boys anc
girls should be SO weak in English
language is q little more than car
yet understand When they come te
take entrance examinations in college.
and universities they invariably fai
on English grammar. l guess that the
liberal use Of modern slang by the
boys and garls of the average small
city and country town has SO cor
|rupted their grammar that it is impos
sible for them to answer examlnatlon
questions in that branch. MFG
Il think that this use of slang Is at
least partly responsible for the lacl
|of knowledge in English grammar
Iowa boys and girls are as intelligent
as those of any other state. AS to al
zebra it is not surprising that any
set of boys and girls should be weak in
mathmetics. Such things frequently
happen.

Would Reciprocity Injure the Farmer

Editor Courier
The Canadian government at last
has decided that the Canadian people
should not enter into reciprocal COM
pact with the United States, but re-
gardless Of this fact, find that there
are some warm supporters of reel
procity In the United States and on
the other hand there are some who op-
pose 1t.
In making thorough investigation
and study of this subject find the
strongest opposition to reciprocity
among the farmers Of the Mississippi
valley and the great west. But why
is 1t that the farmers should fear reci-
procity? A careful study of this ques-
ton shows that the Canadian farmer
can not injure the American farmer.
In 1910 Canada exported to the
United States $104,000,000 worth OF
products while the United States ex-
ported to Canada $223.000,000 worth
of products thus selling, Canada more
than twice as much as she sold us.
Moreover, Canada In 1910 imported
more than three-fifths of all her i'm
ports from the United States, and this
shows that the balance of trade is In
favor of the United States Now in
coming closer to Mississippi valley
farmer, Twill give YOU some statistics
on N3 A.cme products as wheat. corn,

nit about reciprocity and that Is that

T. think that II those who are ops
posed to reciprocity would give this
subject deep consideration, you would
find that the attitude of a great many
Of our citizens toward the joint agree
ment would be changed. 4.

horses, dairy products, poultry and
eggs. and let you decide for yourself
whether or not Canada under reel.
procal compact could injure the Ameri.
can farmer.
l will first show the existing condi.
tions with regard to wheat. 1t Is the
plainest principle Of economics that
the price of wheat is governed at Liv.
erpool and as Canada and the United
States each produce more wheat than
they consume and in fact export it,
then how can the tariff between the
United States and Canada benefit the
farmer in this country. In fact, we
need no protection against Canadian
wheat as both countries are exporters
Of this product.
In corn, find that Canada cannot
compete with the Mississippi valley
farmer, simply because Canada can
not raise corn for export. In 1910
the entire dominion raised fraction
over three times as much corn as
Wapello county; thus under such con
ditions how can the price of corn be
reduced under lower tariff?
Last year Canada exported $1,000,
600 worth OF feeder cattle, and at that
time there was tariff Of twenty-seven
and ons half per cent or So on every
$50 animal Now if that tariff were
reduced, the Iowa feeders as well as
the feeders in the other states would
have a. new market from which to Sc
cure his feeder cattle.
Again, r find that the Canadians
could not injure our horse market, for
each year the United States exports
more than four times as many horses
to Canada than we receive from her.
On dairy products, poultry and
eggs, a freer exchange cannot injure
our farmer because Canada's produc.
ton Of these articles is significant
compared with our total production.
Ofbutterin 1900 the United States pro
duced 1,500.0O0,O00 pounds, while
Canadas entire expectation was 4,
100000 pounds. not enough to furnish

YE M0DISH MUFF .
IS CYLINDRICAL
Cushion Muff With Turned Back
Ends on Smart Model.

The Importance of the muff to COM
plete a smart toilet grows each year
in proportion to it's size, and in the
present season, when the largest muffs
on record are being carried, hardly a
fashionable woman is seen without
one.
The writer was told recently by a
mOdiste that the latest Paris idea for
the velvet cushion" muff, with ends
turned back to reveal the silk lining, is
to have detachable Innings which can
be slipped on easily to match partic-
ular note Of the frock. The ends Of
these Innings are fastened with elastic.
which keeps them in position when
turned back cuff-wise over the muff.
Tails on fur muffs are longer and
more plentiful than ever, and in some
cases the muffs are made entirely from
tails.
An interesting innovation is the
evolution of the long fiat muff into a
cylindrical shape This is revival Of
the old fashioned rounded muff, but it
is the first time that this shape has
been used for long muffs.
The feather toques which have been
such a feature Of the early autumn are
being initiated in muffs. Almost every
species of game bird is used for the
purpose. and stoles are made to match.
