WISCONSIN IN THE LEAD
Heads the Procession in Number of
Vocational Schools.

Madison, Dec. 24.-Wisconsin is liv-
ing up to it's reputation as the most
progressive state in the union by
marching at the head of the process
sion in the latest educational move
ment-vocational schools.
Four years ago the legislature APP
pointed a commission of experts to
study the question of industrial edu-
cation at home and abroad. Two years
ago, acting on report from this COM
mission, the legislature enacted a
series of laws providing for the es-
tabIishment of continuation, vocation
al, trade and evening schools, first
laying a foundation by rewriting
the child labor and truancy acts. The
work of organizing these schools is
now in progress and Wisconsin is en-
gagged in an effort to give it's in
dustriaI and commercial population
advantages similar to those it has
been giving for years to its agricul-
turists.
Although the laws have been eff
fective only a few months, thirty
cities already have opened industrial
and continuation schools, more than
10000 pupils have been enrolled, the
classes constantly are increasing and
new courses are being added. All
over the United States those interest
ed in the new educational movement
are watching with interest the de-
velopment Of the Wisconsin plan.
One universal feature attendant up
on the passage of vocational school
laws was that they went through
without opposition. This fact never
has failed to stir the wonderment of
persons who have had experience in
promoting reform measures before
state assemblies, and it is attributable
to the influence of the University of
Wisconsin, which is the real fountain
head of progressiveism in the Bad
ger state.
AS substructure for the vocational
school act, the legislature revised the
child labor and truancy laws, and like
wise the apprenticeship act, which
had been written in 1849 and had be-
come obsolete. So far as education is
concerned, Wisconsin now has charge
of the child from the seventh to the
sixteenth year.

DECLARES FIGURES
ON CHEESE MISLEAI
Official Says Wisconsin Output
Is Kept Secret.

Fond du Lac, Wis, Dec. pa. w.
Clark, for twenty years secretary of
the Fond du Lac dairy board, declar-
ed that the cheese output figures as
indicated by the sales are misleading
and that a large amount of the out.
put has been kept under cover"
According to the statistics compiled
by Mr.. Clark, and which he bases on
sales made by the dairy boards, the
cheese output for Wisconsin during
1912 was 6,6SO,640 pounds short of
that of 1910, and 3,4S5,O4O less than
it was in 1911.
con the face of these returns" says
Mr.. Clark, "the cheese output in Wis
consin for 1912 was only half of that
of 1910, but to those familiar with the
situation it is evident that just as
much cheese was made this year as
before. The fact is that the trusts
were able to keep a large percentage
of the C',t~1t under cover. No or
posted can believe the figures.
''Foud Gu Lac county, one OF
largest cheese-producing counties,
cen no decrease in the number
