SCHOOL LAW CHANGES

The school laws enacted at the
recent term Of legislature makes
some radical changes that are of
interest. The following letter
sent out by the state superinten-
dent was handed us by Supt.
Hamilton:
The laws enacted at the pre-
sent session of the legislature
will go into effect May 20, 1911.
The two laws which affect you
the most are the Certifcation law
and the Supervision law.
Under the latter, the County
Superintendent of each county
having more than sixty school
districts shall appoint on or be-
fore June |, 1911, four members
of County Educational Board,
of which board the County Sup
erintendent is ex-oilicio chairman.
The members of the board re-
ceive no compensation, excepting
travelling expenses. Members
of this board must be legal school
voters and no person holding any
other county office, excepting the
County Superintendent, shall be
eligible.
On the first Monday in June
the Educational Board shall meet
and divide all the school districts
of the county excepting first class
districts into supervisory dis
tricts. No supervisory district
shall contain less than twenty
nor more than fifty school districts
The County Superintendent shall
be counted as supervisor for
one district and the board shall
employ Supervisors for the other

STATE AND UNIVERSITY CO.
OPERATE IN FELLOWSiIiPS

Preliminary arrangements have just
been completed for the establishment
of six positions which will be virtually
working fellowships available foi
graduate students in economics in con
nection with the Wisconsin state tax
commission, the railroad commission
and the state insurance commission,
by the authorities of the University OF
Wisconsin. These positions will prob
ably be known as working fellowships
in taxation, in transportation and pub
lie utilities, and in insurance. The
positions will yield $500, the amount
that has hitherto been paid for univer-
sity students who have been employed
by these commissions. The new places,
however, will be open only to graduate
students in economics. The appoint
ments will be subject to the restric-
tons imposed upon the respective com
missions by the Wisconsin statutes.
The places will be open to graduates of
the university or other colleges on the
same terms as the regular university
felIowships, after the candidate has
satisfied the commission to which he
is nominated by the university regents
that he is qualified for the work which
he desires to undertake.
The important work which is being
done in the regulation of railroads,
public utilities, insurance, and in work
ing out the problems of taxation il
Wisconsin, makes these new positions
particularly desirable for graduates
who desire to secure practical training
in these fields. 1t is anticipated that
there will be many applications for
these working felloWships from college
graduates who have done advanced
work in political economy and political
science, and that the commissions will
secure we'll trained men as a result OF
the new arrangement.

Frank P. Walsh, Mayor Hayes of
Prescott, Wis, and Mrs. David Kirk,
the first woman superintendent Of
schools in America, will conclude the
conference.
At the conference special attention
will be called to the necessity for
places of meeting for citizens in every
community where topics of public in
terest can be discussed. Methods of
organizing neighborhood clubs for the
development of public spirit through
the open presentation and free dis
cussion of public questions will also be
considered. The idea of citizenship
organization is the basis of the whole
social center movement and will there
fore be given chief place in the dis
cussions of the conference. 1t is hoped
by the leaders of the movement that
by the organization of machine of
citizenship, including men of all par
ties who come together to discuss and
understand the problems of democracy
and to express the citizens right to
self government, an effective method
to control the bipartisan machine in
city, state and national government
will be secured.

New York, but owing to the inability
of buyers to secure carload lots of one
variety sorted and graded, the COM
mission men have been knocking the
: price of Wisconsin potatoes on the
market. The experiment station is
! endeaVoring to improve conditions, not
| by introducing any new varieties, but
by disseminating pure seed and advo-
eating that the farmers in each com
munity raise the same variety. The
new soil of Rusk county, clay loan
/ we'll drained, was adapted to produce
successfully either Burbanks, Rural
New Workers, Early Rose, Irish Cob
biers or Stray Beauties.
The Burbank, true to type, Mr..
Milward said, has almost gone out of
! Wisconsin, being substituted by a
larger, rougher potato, which brings a
lower price on the market. This is
true in measure Of all leading varie-
ties, because of the erroneous idea
that the largest potato is what is
wanted
A large field is open to North Wis
| consin at the present time in furnish
ing the seed for older potato growing
sections. AS evidence of this, Mr.. A.
c. Ramseyer of Smithville, Ohio, rep
resenting a county potato growers
| association, was present at the Con-
rath Fair to make arrangements for
carload of seed potatoes. The Greeley
district of Colorado, famous for it's
irrigated potato yields, has to go out
side for seed. They raise mostly the
Peerless variety. This is because of
diseases prevalent where land is
cropped almost continuously to pota-
toes. Our new land is free from such
diseases, and can be kept so by using
care IN selection of seed and by rotating
clover with potatoes. Potato growing
and live stock raising go hand in hand,
and the successful potato grower is
usually dairy farmer.
The Faast Land Co. imported car
load of pure seed last year, and the,
experimental farm near Conrath pro-
| duced we'll this year, large crop from
which seed can be purchased by all
desiring to secure good stock.
Bulletins concerning the treatment
Of the soil for disease, and on potato
growing, can be secured free by writ
ing to the University Experiment Sta
ton at Madison.
The program Of the day closed with
dance in the new potato warehouse,

occasion, as he was, indeed, of the en-
tire day.
