! No other department illustrates more lforcibly the gain that Arizona has made-and the sureness with whict
 she has kept step with the progress oi
 the whole country. Among the people
 who have fingered before the educa-
 tional exhibit were many who were
 passing visitors to Arizona as we'll. One lady from a large Eastern city said l frankly that it was all a revelation to 1 her-she had not dreamed that away
 out in the desert and the wilderness ! Gas her pre-conceived idea of the coun- l try had been) she would find school children of all ages preparing display of work which she generously admit ted was better than her home city had ever shown.
 Another visitor from Chicago said that the display would be matter for
 pride if contrasted with the work of schools in that city, which gave the
 National Educational association its only woman president up to date.
 But it isn't so important that the
 work should rank with the best work
 elsewhere. though that is a matter of
 inspiration and encouragement for fin . Ter effort: the most important thing in
 this exhibit is that it shows steady
 gain over past years in the quality of work done. in the harmony of methods in the schools all over the state and in that coherent development of ideas from grade to grade which is imper ative if education is to have a working value.
 It is five years since the present superintendent of this department, Mrs w w McNeff, entered upon her work. and in that time education in Arizona has made a marked advance. Some thing of this must be in fairness grant ed to the educational displays at the annual fairs. Here as nowhere else parents have been able to see what their children were being taught to do. and here teachers could see the resul. of their own methods brought into sharp contrast with the methods of other teachers. Here school children could see their work grouped with the work of children in other schools and given the dignity of fixed place in an exhibit representing the most valued assets of their own state. The result has been an education in itself. all the more forcible because il spoke through concrete objects instead of words.
 There has been friendly rivalry be- tween towns and schools which has better work and led to search for better methods; it has led to the growth of school pride and class pride which is only patriotism begin ming to learn to walk. IL has served as an illustration of the need for unity in grade work all over the state and has done a good part in the present efforts in that direction. Much that admiration and commendatiOr in this display must be credited to the example and suggestion of the work shown in previous years.
 Like every other department of the fair this one shows a great gain in and attractive arrange nent. and though a great number Of objects are shown they are so well placed that the effect is of a ogical sequence. One passes from grade to grade and subject to subject | without confusing breaks or abrup: contrasts. Starting in with the little district schools one may take

they would have appropriated for kit
 chen rather than laboratory mixtures
 It is probable that this first display from the university put that institu- tion of which Arizona may be so justly
 proud on the mental map of great many of the visitors. Most of our in- lstitutiOns are not sufficiently well known to our own people and it is tu be hoped that the university will be Istill more fully represented another lyear.
 It has been said that various prizes
 were awarded in the department of education but the announcement of
 winners mast be let for later time. Every teacher and every pupil who had
 the smallest part in the preparation of
 this display may justly feel that they | have conferred a favor upon all Ari- zona. and it is certain that not the
 most careless visitor can forget the beauty and excellence of this depart
 ment. It would be a fitting thing if
 some of the best work could be filed
 in albums and pass into the care of the
 state school superintendent as a per Imanent record of the growth of school
 work in Arizona.
 ! Some of our old states might look
 pretty common beside the beautiful i pictures shown today-but they would
 be worth seeing. if only to show how much education has gone forward since Governor Stafford was earning his title of the father of Arizona schools. ' The most important educational movement of the present time is that which looks toward teaching the busy man to do his york better The work of the agricultural department for the
 past quarter of a century has in creased the wealth and comfort and Opportunity of life in the United States so many fold that most of us have no appreciation of it
 The work of the Arizona department of agriculture will be better known and vastly better understood and appreci- ated because of the exhibit this year Perhaps no other exhibit in the build ings is straight fOrwardly insistent-so compact. so impossible to pass by with a casual glance. Beginning with the large pictures which show first the main office and laboratory at Tucson
 in the university grounds. then the date orchard at Tempe where alkali soil is made to produce a rich harvest then the demonstration garden at Yu- ma where local crop possibilities are reduced to science. the re-grassed range land at Helvetia, the naked Ges- ert before dry farming turned it to a profitable farm at Snowflake. various fields of milo maize and other dry farm products. the exhibits follows up" to the very grains and fruits and vegetables which are the answers to the agricultural problems which the desert has set for the farmer

 grades and high schools and normals
 to the University of Arizona, which this
 year is making its first exhibit.
 One visitor looked at it all and said
 now want to study it, beginning down
 at the smallest school the sort that
 had to come before we could have d
 university or even a high school. The Riverside, Cartwright. Wilson. Osborne,
 Fowler and Scottsdale represented various stages of common school deVel-
 opment with excellent collections of work grouped artistically. Each group contained something unique. something worthy of special mention were this possible. In so much that was inter- eSting and excellent it would be unfair to single out the most striking things and the chief value. the supreme i'm portance of the whole would be lost for it is just that harmonious illustra- ton of the whole field of work which is the vital thing in every booth.
 The Phoenix high school, the Tempe union high school, and the Tucson high school. presented a display of work ranging from drawings, water color and oil studies, pencil and charcoal sketches. illuminated texts and notices. decorative designs. stencils and book covers, maps. themes, class nOtes-to needlework. cooked food, and the beau tiful furniture in the manuel training exhibits
 The Tempe normal Tempe normal training school, Bisbee public school. rI lnI In.lf lfa.ta school. St Mary's private school, Miss Shafer's private school and kindergar- ten in Tucson, all continued the varied display, which. in spite of it's first and greatest importance as an education to every visitor, made up a Veritable art gallery of beautiful objects to which the eye could return again and again with increasing pleasure.
 It seemed q just and natural thing that all this quiet beauty should flow from the concrete exposition of the educational work of the schools of Ari- zona. Study should be a happy thing and learning the bringing together of experiences into useful harmOnies- which are the stuff Of which beauty is made
 The domestic science WOrk was eS- pecially commendable and through t girls are learning to regard the home arts as respectfully as those of the studio. and to realize how varied is the knowledge that goes to insure a well cooked meal and a well-kept house.
 One of the domestic science teachers who was in attendance said that her pupils grew so enthusiastic over the cooking and sewing that they would come to her home to do extra work whenever she could have them and that the girls who had the lessons in bread making in hand would get up and come to school very early and re turn in the evening if necessary to he sure # was all right.
 The Northern Arizona normal school was represented by case of pictures the very attractive surround ings The exhibit of the Tempe normal and normal training school was worthy i all the special mention which space {, will rot rermit.
 Like the natural continuation of the | sequence the University ' display gave a most interesting. incon | plete, illustration Of the work which

The wireless telegraph interested crowds of bo-s and older folks as well and there was a constant crowd wait. ing for chance to look through the group of microscopes in the biology exhibit. These divided honors with the .transparencies which illustrated the work in astronomy and which made a lot of people familiar for the first tim,. in their lives with the moon and her heavenly neighbors
 The machine shop exhibit contained some good work in iron and models of various parts of machinery to be cast in the foundry. A rather amusing in cident was the delight of some ladies over some of the fire proof porcelain utensils in the physics display-which

The San Dimas display of citrus trees is of special interest when the citrus belt is still extending and AriZo- no citrus fruits commanding increas- ing attention in the markets at home ad elsewhere. Some fine flowers and house and decorative plants are tO be seen in other booths, and the curious cactus plants and fruits from the Yet ter cactus farm have attracted much interest Like all the other booths in the building the tree and plant men have presented a more beautiful dis play than ever before.

Grades OF Cream
The problem OF grading cream Is TO
determine upon the flavor and acidity
requirement for each grade. AS the
conditions Of production. quality of
butter required and uses Of cream in
the factory vary at different creamer-
les. no uniform system Of grades has
been established for all creameries-
Some creameries favor only two
grades, as:
/. sweet-Of good favor and not
over 2-l0 per cent. acidity.
.. Sour-Of good flavor and over
2-10 per cent. acidity.
Other creameries have established
three grades. as:
/. OF good favor and not over $40
per cent acidity.
q OF good flavor and not over 5-10
per cent. acidity.
g. Any flavor and over $40 acidity.
Other provisional grades have been
adopted, and as stated above. the mat
ter OF grade is one to be determined
by the local conditions at the cream
cry. Wherever a system OF grades
has been adopted the fact has always
been recognized that the better grades
are worth more money and from &c
TO 4c difference in price has been paid
for butter fat in the different grades.
Result of Grading Cream
A noticeable result obtained In
states where grading system has
been adopted is that the farmers al
ways take more interest in the pro-
ducing of their cream; conditions are
made more cleanly and sanitary at
home for the production; less cream
OF the poorer grade is produced and
an educational movement along the
line of modern np-to-date dairy produS.
tion is pressed in earnest Dollars and
cents speak out clearly to the farmer
and meet with prompt response.
The writer thoroughly believes that a
grading system for cream would do
much to improve dairy conditions in
Oklahoma and it would be gladly vel.
coined by the dairy farmers.
