TAFT TO TRAVERSE IOWA TWICE
President to Make Many Stops During
Trip Across State.


Washington. July Sit is likely
that President Taft will make coast
to-coast trip this fall. lasting a month
erary to extend from Beverly to San
Francisco is question which the pres
ident probably will decide next week.
Aug. was fixed several weeks ago for
the preparation Of the tentative dates.
The president will start from Bever-
ly about the middle of September. This
has been settled. AS first planned, the
trip included only the middle western
states, and would have taken two
weeks. Now it has heightened to a
month, and possibly two weeks more
will be added to satisfy the desire to
see and hear the president expressed
by the Rocky mountain and Pacific
states. The trip will be next in extent
to his circuit of the United States two
years ago. when he was travelling for
two months.
Leaving Beverly, the president now
ester, N. Y, fair. spend two days in
Chicago. go to Davenport, Iowa. tour
Kansas, strike Missouri, then go north
west to the Dakotas. visiting Sioux
City, Iowa, or thru to the Pacific. He
will make stops in Minnesota, tour
Wisconsin and make several speeches,
ending the trip at the international
dairy show at Milwaukee; go down in
to the middle western states, and prob
ably to some of those in the southeast,
and return to Massachusetts, by way Of
Washington.

NORMAL AND AGRICULTURE m.
srRUcToRs TO De IN GREAT
DEMAND.
NEW COURSES IN SCHOOLS
CREATES NEW FIELD OF WORK
No One Knows Where Competent
Teachers Will Be Obtainsd-Forty
Normal Departments to BE Opened
Next Fall - Professor Mabannah
Makes Suggestions.
.cial to Tfmes-Republican

Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines, July 31.-Educators cap
able Of giving normal instruction in
agriculture and home economics are
going to be in great demand in Iowa
next fall Each and every one Of the
select forty high school normals will
have to make some provision for this
kind Of normal instruction. Just where
the teachers are to be had is an open
question.
Professor Mahannah. inspector OF
this high school work, in circular
prepared to send to the superintend-
ents Of schools where the normal de-
partments are to be located, says on
this subject:
THE law provides that there shall
be instruction in agriculture and home
economics. For the present year 1t
seems wise to limit the time devoted
to each of these subjects to one semes-
ter. The demand that there be instruc-
ton in agriculture and home economics
is constantly increasing, and later on
it may be that more time should be de-
voted to these two subjects, but in or
der not to crowd the work of the
eleventh and twelfth grades it might
be wise where more than semester
is devoted to agriculture and domestic
science, to have some of the work done
earlier in the course. In the schools
where they have a regular domestic
scierce teacher and complete equip
ment, work is offered as low as in the
seventh grade.
UNFORTUNATELY the time is 80 limited
between now and Sept. 1 that there
may be come difficulty in securing the
proper kind Of teacher for the home
economics work, but since so much de-
ponds upon the efficiency Of this teach
err, we would suggest that where a
school Is not able to secure a teacher
who has had sufficient training in this
line Of work to guarantee that she will
do the work in creditable manner.
that the work in domestic science be
postponed until the beginning of the
second semester.
"This will enable the school to not
only secure proper equipment but also
! a teacher competent to use that equip
| ment. Before the opening Of school in
September we shall present a complete
outline of ninety lessons in home econ
omics. which outline Will contain not
only the subject matter but the meth
cd. and will be taken up step by step
thru every lesson.
Tn selecting the books that will
make up the professional library we
shall select some that bear directly on
the work in home economics and 1t will
be the purpose and desire of this de-
partment to assist in every way pos
sible in getting the best results in
home economies"
1t was not the intention Of the de-
partment to make any definite desig-
nation OF the normal high schools un-
til the complete list was ready. but
the demand for haste was such that
half OF them were designated last Sat-
urday, and the list will be completed
now as soon as possible so that work
may commence within a month.

TESTING THE MOON LAW.
State to Push Saloon Prosecution at
Sioux City.
.cial to Times-Republican

Special to Times Repubncan.
Des Moines, July 31.-According to
Attorney General Cosson it is mat
ter Of small consequence whether or not
Charles Beger, Of Sioux City, or some
other defendant, is the principal in the
effort being made at Sioux City to have
the provisions of the Moon law de-
clared null. A stipulation was entered
into by the lawyers in Sioux City
which set forth the facts regarding the
law and that a certain number of sa-
looms shall have the right to operate
under the Moon law. and that If the
law did not have effect when passed
larger number may operate. The
stipulation was drawn up for the pur-
pose of getting squarely before the
courts, in a criminal case. the issue as
to when the Noon law commenced to
operate.
"If the defendant Berger is not a res
ident and therefore one who would be
guilty of violation regardless of the
law, I know nothing about the matter
said Mr.. CossOn. But whether he is
or not they can simply make an arrest
of some one Of the others who would
be affected by the decision and go on
with the case"
The test case of the Moon law in Des
Moines, wherein Judge DeGraff ruled
that the operation of the law COM
menced when passed and not on July
following, was in civil case. An
appeal Of this kind would take its regu-
lar slow course. But a criminal case
could be advanced and would be con-
sidered by the court ahead of the civil
suit. Hence the effort to have the Moon
law provisions determined by Sioux
City rather than a Des Moines appeal.
1t is also understood that so far as
the Des Moines saloon men are con-
cerned they are not DESTROYS OF enarS-
ing the number Of saloons.
