MONEY VALUE OF EDUCATION

There never was time when an
education as a preparation for
successful career in agriculture
was 50 essential as now. we nave
rpccgnized for some time that
professional training for the
rburrh, for medicine. for law and
for engineering was absolutely nee
.ssarv. Most of us, however. have
never appreciated the fact that a
modern training in agriculture is
as much prerequisite for success
as a technical training III other
lines or profession. 1t has not been
an easy matter to substantlate tins
statement with actual figures until
recently Within the past year or
two Prof. Warren, of Cornell Uni
versity. has studied the earning
power Of all the farmers III tour
townships in New York CLASSIFIED
according to the amount OF edtica-
ton they received
The Worlds Work says that
while these studies are meager ana
imperfect they show with surpris-
inc uniformity that education does
have a value which may be express
ed in dollars and cents when ap-
Piled to farming. 1t shows ina.
the net labor income per year OF
39S farmers who had attended only
the district school was but $3lo; Oh
l6j who had attended high school
or equivalent it was 1922; of II
who had attended a college or a
university, it was $S47.
The late William y. Harris. whei
United States Commissioners OF Ed
ucation. pointed out the fact ina
where the public school term i
longest. there the productive power
Of the citizen was the greatest. "A
that time the average school per
od per nhabitant was 40 years
Commissioner Harris Stud'e
show that for each year spent u
school beyond the average OF r.
years increased the future earnihs
power Of the individual more thai
$1,000.
In this connection it may o
said that the open country IS SUI
fering for the want Of constructiv
leaders in rural affairs. In vle>
Of present conditions in the coun
try. it is obvious that the safe, san
leadership for which We are looR
lng will come only from those {, Q

trained.

This idea Of different capitation /

years ago by the Town Council, +.
and the town charter revised ac-
cordingly. but if this is not suffi-

why don't they proceed by law

Ian mentions as not paying. and
they can find out then what is clear
to everyone else now; or they can,
if they wish. turn to the Constitr-

taxes must be equal. y
DR.. Gilfillan says the Professors
in Delaware College would profit
by an equal capitation tax-so
I they would, and so they should
as from this statement it is easily
assumed that those men are assess
ed as high as possible-what kind
of sense of injustice pervades the
minds of our Board Of Education
to make it seem ight-that the
highly efficient but poorly paid
professors and instructors in our
college should be despoiled in this
manner-that they deserve a liv-

son that they should be robbed in
the name Of education.

for the best ten ears OF yellow corr
in the northern zone. E. P. Sand, of
Mitchell, was awarded the first
premium on the best ten ears of mix
ed corn. G. NJ. Dunmire, of Scotland,
was awarded second premium on tim
othy seed in the worlds class.
The corr exhibited by Thompson
and Sand at the national show was
at the state show in this city two
weeks ago., and both were awarded
the highest markings in their class.

APPEN
MATTERS OF INTEREST THAT APPEN
II! THE COURSE Oh A WEk.

secretary Is q mighty popular man
with the live stock men. and without
him at the helm the show would
not prove the great success that it
has.
Ex-Governor Folk, Of Missouri,
delivered q lecture at the Gale
theatre Thursday evening. as n of
the numbers on the lecture and con
cert course, which was listened to
with rapt attention. Governor
Folks talk was directed along the
lines for the people to come more
into their own by driving the special
interests out of politics, and letting
the people rule supreme in that line.
One thing he urged upon the people
was to stand by a good man who was
making a fight for these reforms. for
the interests never neglected their
man when he was in power. The
governor has made a strong fight
for eliminating the corruption in
politics, and he can speak with some
experience along that line. He urg-
ed for a higher citizenship and for
cleanliness in the political cowrd.
His address was received with keen
appreciation, and his sentiments
were applauded.
The Woman's Foreign Missionary
Society of the First Methodist church
held its monthly meeting Friday in
the church parlors. The program
was of exceptional interest and
greatly enjoyed. A reception to the
new members was neld after the
program. The membership of the
society now numbers about $50 and
it is hoped to increase it to 200 in
the near future.

farm TOPICS were
TALKED AT MtET|rG
SEVERAL ADDRESSES WERE
LISTENED TO AND MADE BY
PROMINENT SPEAKERS ON
~. FARM LIFE. 4s

The court house DOM was packed
to the limit Wednesday evening at
the meeting of the live stock men,
and they were we'll repaid for their
attendance by the talks that were
made by j. NJ. Erion, DR.. A. A. Brig,
ham and Andrew Elliott. ..
Mr.. Erion's talk related to breeds
of the various animals on the farm,
The question of breeds to the speak
er appeared to be sort of an individ.
uality in the manner of feeding, and
that it was not so much the real
breed of the animal that wins prizes
but the way in which he has been
groomed and the quality and guam
tity of feed that has been given him
Mr.. Erion found that in the various
breeds of cattle and swine each breed
er is a strong defender of his class
of work.
DR.. A. A. Brigham spoke with ref
erence to the boys and girls on the
farm with the idea of holding them
there and also of making the home
life of the entire family n to be
loved rather than to be stunned suf-
f1ciently as to leave it for the town.
He had several propositions to make
concerning this feature in building
town halls in the various townships
and made them a public meeting
place to bring out the people. Also
to improve the school advantages Of
the boys and girls, and to make the
rural schools Of the character and
standard so that when they got
through with them they would be
equipped in a way to take up the
work Of life.
Andrew Elliott, who is covering
the state with the farmers institute
teachers, spoke in an authoritative
manner concerning the ideal draft
horse. He endorsed the draft horse
as the best for the farmer, after pre-
senting the various breeds which are
found on the farm. Mr.. Elliott de-
scribed the qualifications of the draft
horse and showed by diagram why
the draft should possess these things
which make him fitted for the work
of the farm and to some extent for
use on the road. In speaking of
breeding he advised never to cross
breeds for the a that the prog
eny will lose the best feature Of the
sire and dame, and make it practical
ly worthless.
With the close Of the addresses,
President Babcock gave the men in
the audience a chance to join the
association, and during the short
time allotted and with the same OPP
portunity presented some time be-
fore about 115 new members paid
the initiation fee and enrolled them
selves as members Of the live stock
breeders.
Secretary Ness, of the Commercial
Club. was present with several boxes
Of cigars and these were passed
among the stockmen for them to en-
Joy Q smoke while the members were
