ton, Ind. 1t contains six ool-rooms,
wide, spacious corridors, etc.; and it's
cost was $4,000. 1t serves a school
population of 416 children.
In Indiana, where the transportation
of children, in special wagons, to the
consolidated schools has been reduced
to a system, the cost of each wagon
per day is stated at $2.O7, and the cost
for each child per day, at about 1211a
cents-a trifie more than the street
car fare which city children pay. How
far this cost might be reduced by the
employment of the same teams to con-
vey adults in the evenings, to the So
-cial and other functions which will
naturally center around the CONSOLE
dated school, has not been estimated.
The amount of taxable wealth in a
community, necessary to the support
of such four-room consolidated
school as that on which Supt. Schulz
figures the cost of maintenance, esti-
mated on the basis of a tax of Is mills
on the dollar (the Minnesota limit for
local taxation for school maintenance
is $266,666.66 1t therefore is re-
quired that a valuation of only about
$11 an acre shall be placed on the
land in an ordinary township to enable
it to support a school whose presence
will elevate not only the educational
standard, but the standards of social
and intellectual life in the whole COM
munity. And this amount will be con-
siderably reduced by the operation OF
the new Holmberg law, giving State
aid to consolidated schools in Mime.
sofa, and by the funds secured from
|apportionment. AS for the cost of a
building, the additional tax for build
ing purposes allowed by the state
law, of 10 mills on the dollar, would
need to be levied for only four years
to build and equip it.
The greater number of Minnesota
townships have a taxable wealth SO
much in excess of the above estimate
that every one of them could, if it de-
sired, support larger and more com
plete consolidated school, like that at
Royerton above referred to, with a
corps of ten teachers.-C. r. Barns,

CONSOLIDATION NOT COSTLY

The benefcent consolidation of ru-
raj schools would probably go forward
much more rapidly were it not for a
general apprehension that it may in.
volve excessive COST as compared
with that of the prevailing system and
with the financial strength of the com.
munity The first question asked,
when consolidation is mentioned, is,
"What will it cost?"
A little investigation brings out the
fact that in some instances the saving
in the amount paid for teachers sal
aries, fuel and supplies, brought about
by the consolidation of a number OF
district schools in one, has fully
equalled the added cost of transport
ing to the consolidated school the
children living at a distance In the
majority of cases, however, the rule
''the better the article the higher the
cost" is found applicable to the con
solidated school. The excess in cost
is however, very moderate when com
pared with the benefits received

The cost of the building is approx

For reliable figures as to the COM
parative expense of conducting separ-
ate and consolidated schools, on a
scale of consolidation larger than the
foregoing, we must look to the state
of Indiana, where the work OF con-
solidation has made more notable pro-
gress than in any other common
wealth. The following figures are
for the schools in Hamilton Township
Delware Co., Ind, being the average
amount per year for three years in
