pleted this course there would be no
question as to the appreciation Of
nine out OF every ten, OF country life
and country institutions.
There are, regret to say, obstacles
to be overcome before our ideals ior
the country school can be attained.
One is that half of the farms in the
State are occupied by tenant farm
ers, and every January Ist or March
25th, hundreds OF children go from one
school district to another, and. be-
cause under existing conditions it is
impossible to have our schools uni
form, they are upset. more or less,
for a time each year, and the pupils
are bound to lose considerable time.
Another, and much greater diff
Guilty, is the size and equipment of our
present schools. / do not believe that
it Is possible for any child to. ge. ade-
llate training in school where there
are less than half dozen pupils. The
teacher OF such a school is poorly
paid, and that indicates that SIZE is
young and inexperienced and poorly
trained as a teacher. The equipment
for teaching, according to modem
methods is entirely lacking. The lack
Oh numbers fails to develop compcti-
ton or pride ii scholarship. Til.
school-house is unattractive and lonely.
The instruction is confined almost en-
tirely to books, and, instead OF teach
ing the pupil in terms OF his environ
ment, in terms of every day life. which
he can appreciate and understand, he
is taught arithmetic by studying ex
amples in mixing different grades Of
tea or sugar. He is taught geography
by studying the rivers of Africa before
he knows in detail his own country
The net result of such a school is that
the child learns to dislike school and
instead of looking forward to com
plete education in the accepted sense

child will or should attend for about
eight years, is to fit that child by a

Scientific MANAGEMENT.

Broadly speaking, scientific man
agement is simply the expert study of
details and the application of intelli-
gent methods to save unnecessary la
Dor, coupled with an incentive to the
workman to interest himself. If it
be found that in common practice the
bricklayer makes eight motions in set
ting a brick and lays 120 bricks per
hour, whereas the same thing can be
done equally we'll by three motions
and the result be an increase to $50
in the number of bricks paid per hour.
the economic benefit is self-evident
Such has been actually effected. Even
in the lowest kind of manual labor,
such as the moving of pigiron, it haa
been found possible to triple. and
even to quadruple, the accomplish
ment per man. These are not theo-
retical estimates. They are actual re-
suits.

Sunday as Merle, the young son of
Marshall Calkins. was Leading one of
George Calkins' horses, the horse
hit him in the forehead with one
foot. No one seems to know just how
it happened, but anyhow the little
fellow is hurt quite seriously. the
bone being fractured and a long
cash cut which required several
stitches to close. Much sympathy is
expressed for him and his parents.
Luckily his eye is uninjured.

WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN
 TEMPERANCE UNION

The vivid words of John Wan amaker will find an echo in many heart, we trust.
 He says: Tt is time some thing besides parading and sing. ing Onward Christian Soldiers, was done by the christian people. We must now stand together for the abolition of the liquor traffic which is bound to come in tune. l believe the Republican party, or any party that fails to recog- nize this fact, is doomed. lam a Republican, and I love the old party of Lincoln, Harrison, Grant Garfield and Mckinley, but I re. alize that the grand old party can not be kept up to its stand ard until it excludes the liquor business. It was difficult for one, when I lived in Washington to entertain foreign officials with out serving them with strong drink, but none of them ever had any thing to drink at my house. The appetite for strong drink is an appetite that grows. It is the Devils best weapon, and the worlds greatest curse"
 If men COULD only get their vision above party lines, and set them on high and holy princi. pie there would be such an influx into new party, or such a puri. fication in an old one that would sweep, at one election, this un holy thing from the face of the earth.

NOW GET CHEESE FROM BEANS
Vegetable Milk and Butter Are Becom- ing Popular in China-Cow to Be
 Back Number?

We were taught at school, or on the farm, that the three necessary steps in the production of butter and cheese were first, the COW, second, the cows milk, and third, the manu- facture of butter and cheese and other dairy products from the cows milk. Today the modest COW is be- ing eliminated and little Soya bean is taking the cows place. Milk is obtained from the beans by crushing them. From the bean milk cheese and butter are being made, also con- densed milk, milk flour and form of casein which is said to contain es- sential elements of food.
 Before the Soya beans are crushed they are soaked in cold water. Mace ration results in the production of a thick, milky liquid, which can be filtered and drunk fresh or used for making butter and cheese, just as in the case of cows milk.
 Vegetable milk, butter and cheese are becoming popular in many parts of China, India and Japan, where the cultivation of the Soya bean is being encouraged. Beans cost less than COWS.

 Doctor Stanton is still amused although his wife cannot see why. Not long ago, when recounting the facts to a visitor, also a physician, Doctor Stanton added:

HUNTING THE POLAR BEAR
Exciting Bit of Description of Sport on the Ice Fields of the
 Arctic.

Suddenly, not ten paces from us and directly in the path, a great white face that framed living tri- angle of flashing eyes above steam ing black nose showed itself sharp and clear within the short range of our vision. Bulked large back of this there loomed the swaying body of an ice bear, hay and unreal. He moved like some huge pendulum, from side to side, and then, his white fangs snapped out bare against a mouth of fire as he sprang toward the light.
 'Give it to him, boys" I shouted, jumping sideways with the light.
 Both rifles smashed into the charging beast with one report, and he dropped at our feet beneath the stunning blow of the mushroomed bullets, while the loud echoes multi piled among the hills that line the valley. Before the sharp echoes had ceased to babble back and forth be- tween the ice slopes, we caught the dim reply from the sheer face of Kennedy Glacier way of on distant Smeerenburg, and the stray dogs again took up their mournful paying in the valley.-Outing.

lands now having been withdrawn,
il viii be possible To make a de-
tailed geological investigation of the

Phosphorus, OF which phosphate

Of the three necessary elements of

Since most phosphate as used for
