SCHOOL ATTENDANCE.

! Some of the results of the Federal
census inquiry as to school attendance
in the various States have been made
public in an advance bulletin.
1t is stated that tire census inquiry
was merely as to. whether the person
had attended any kind of school at any
time from September |, 1909, to the
date of enumeration, April Is, 1910.
The statistics given relate only to per-
sons of school age-from ito 20 years
DID, The total number of such per-
sons in 1910 in the United States was
27,550, 500, of whom 17,300,20 or 62.3
per cent, attended school. The per
centage of children from 6 to years
old who attended school was 1875; OF
those from 10 to IA years old, So.2; OF
those from 10 to II years old, SIP; OF
those from Is to 20 years old, 1872.
For the combined group, 6 to Ia years,
inclusive-the most common years or
school attendance-there was total of
1852, 374 persons reported in 1910, and
of this number ID, FOG, $50, or sl.4 per
cent attended school.
In all the Northern Western and
Central States, except Arizona and
New Mexico, more than four-fifths of
the children from 6 to IA years of age,
inclusive, attended school. In eight
States the proportion was more than
nine-tenths These States are Ver-
mont, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Connecticut New York, Michigan,
Iowa and Nebraska. In Vermont and
Massachusetts the high water mark of
school attendance was touched the
percentage in each of these States
being 929.
In Delaware, Maryland, the District
of Columbia, West Virginia and Okla
homa the proportion of children from
6 to IA years, inclusive, who attended
school was something in excess of
four-tifths. In Southern States, Louis
lana excepted, the proportion ran from
10 to Is per cent the proportion for
Louisiana being 54.6 per cent.
A comparison of the census figures Of
1910 with those of 1900 shows an in
creased school attendance in all parts
of the country. The census bulletin
says the increase is most marked in
the Southern States, 'rehecting the
great progress Of popular education in
those States IN recent years" The
period of maximum school attendance
is in the ages 10 to IA years. The in
crease to 70 per cent is an encouraging
indication of educational advanC e.
ment.

Farm Labor Our Greatest Problem

A farm problem that is becoming
more serious every year is that of Sc
curing competent help. This, in view
Of the fact that the average city la
borer makes but bare living, while
the farm hand saves, or might save. a
good share of his wages, particularly
perplexing.
The younger generation, although
raised on the farm, often lose interest
and ambition in farm life and long for
the Iortunes-mostly misfortunes of
the city. They overlook, or are ignor-
ant CT, the vast opportunities that lie
near at hand. And the remedy for
this condition seems to lie in the proper
education of these young people so
that they may recognize the great pos
sibilities oil improved farming.
The letter which follows was written
for the Wisconsin Farmer by man
who observes and comes in contact
with actual conditions. 1t is of par
ticular interest in that it suggests a
method to effect improvement in coun-
try living;
G. L. Karnopp, Manitowoc county,
Wisconsin.-Th labor question is the
greatest problem to be solved in farm
life. According to my observations
throughout the country the farmers
have not nearly as much help as is
necessary to do their work and their
own sons and daughters are being at
tracted TO the city.
If farmers could keep their boys and
girls at home, which undoubtedly
might be done, the difficulties would
cease. But the problem is to keep
them at home feeling contented and
happy. Noung folks enjoy beautiful
surroundings and, to begin with, their
homes should be made more bright
and sunny. Nice lawns and shade
trees should be a part of every farm
equipment and can be secured with
but very little extra expense. OF
course, it must not be forgotten that
the house and farm buildings too must
be built SO as to be more convenient
and in such way as to lessen labor,
| strongly favor township high
schools in which agriculture may be
taught. These tend to create more
interest in farming. Boys, properly
schooled lose the idea that farming is
drudgery and instead love their work.
BY taking an agricultural course they
learn to work their farms in more
systematic manner and thus greatly in
crease the profits.
Every schoolhouse should be used as
social center, where frequent meet
ings may be held to discuss all problems
of agriculture and farm life--the idea
being to better conditions and create
more interest in farm and home.
Some of the schoolhouses in this To-
cality are thus used and we find it very
beneficial.
Farmers sons and daughters must
be taught the love of farm and home
and with their extra agricultural
knowledge they will work their farms
scientifically, thereby getting better
profits. In that way farm life would
be bettered. From Wisconsin Farmer.
