OF TEACHERS
FOR OTHER STATES

Minnesota Is constantly being de-
prived Of its best teachers through the
ability OF western cities to pay higher
! salaries, according to members or the
state high school board and presidents
Of the Ave state normal schools who
held a conference in the state house,
st. Paul on Tuesday and among those
present was President Weld OF the
Moorhead normal.
This situation, 1t was said, existed
despite the fact that Minnesota was
giving annually to its elementary and
high schools a subsidy of n n a
consensus that this subsidy should be
distributed to the various beneficiary
schools in such a way as to effect the
raising of salaries, even though not ap-
plying directly to the salaries them
selves.
The question of the distribution Of
special school aid is one Of the big
problems engaging the new education
commission.
On the salary situation Superintend-
ent Denfeld Of Duluth, who Is presi-
dent of the high school board, said
that in the hiring of teachers the sal
airy available determined the standard
OF applicants within reach, and the
situation was becoming more and more
difficult to handle.

teacher. 1t stands to reason h a if
one school offers 5000 a year and an
other in somewhat nearly the same
field offers $1,000 the latter offer will
be accepted"
The purpose of the conference was
to consider a method of supervising
high school departments for the train
ing of rural school teachers. 1t was
decided that the high school board au-
thorized the appointment of an assist
ant inspector to be known as supervis-
or Of high school training classes.
Norma school presidents were asked
to the conference because the co-opera-
ton of members of the normal school
faculties with the proposed supervisor
was desired. 1t was agreed hat the
supervisor in visiting various high
school training department could pre-
sent. to. certain normal school instruc-
tors the problems peculiar to each de-
partment so hat the normal instruc-
tors could thereupon visit the depart
ment in person and aid the teacher in
her work.
The conference also took up a pro-
posal by. C. G.. Schulz, state superin-
tendent of education, looking to the
raising of standards for admission to

HOW TO CURE THE
DRUDGERY HABIT.

BY Mrs. Mary Mortimer, Columbus,
O.: what is the use," says a mere
man, "of women continually succumb-
ing to the idea Of drudgery? Can't
they do as they please, in their own
houses? If men had the opportunity
of varying their work as much in a
week as women have they would e
er nelieve a word that has been said
about their doing ~druogery."
But in spite of such a cutting
remark, every woman knows that she
knows her own business (more or
less) just the same as a man does.
She knows that whether she makes
tomato soup or meat loaf OF serves a
hot dinner or prepares for a cold one,
1t will all come to the same end
dishes and pots and pans to wash
perhaps blackened ones to scour.
Whether she cleans twice a week,
every week or once a month or once a
year, she will have the same amount
of general household refuse and at
mospheric sediment to remove from
her abode in the course of a year. In
other words, she knows that she will
not escape the high notes Of house
hold drudgery by variation"
1t is now recognized that the only
cure. for the habit of "drudgery'
which housekeepers have grown nto
Is method.
The widespread adoption of the
idea and the name of domestic sci
ence" for all Of these mental duties
has added a sort Of dignity, which
seems to react with the effect of get
ting into it all the science to which
science is due.
The result Is the almost entire elm
ination of hard Or unpleasant house
work. There is hardly a home in the
United States where electricity is
used for lighting in which it has not
been recognized that it is the greatest
asset for other household comforts
and helps as well: There is every

Who Would Compose Labor Party?

st. Louis Republic: While the res
olutions adopted by the American
Federation Of Labor declare that the
time has not arrived for the forma-,
ton of a distinct labor political party,
they plainly indicate the belief that
the time will come when a labor par
ty should be organized. y
1t would be interesting to know just
what elements it is expected this par,
ty will attract. If it is to be a party
for people who labor, her it will not
be materially different from existing
parties, for. nearly every one labors.
The same thing would be true if It is
to be a part of wage-earners. If it is
to be a party of union laborer, the
unions will need to do a. great deal of

filed in the district court in this city
Monday. The case is brought by Emma

the allegations are to the effect. that
the plaintiff and defendant were mar
ried at Fargo on April 20, 1907 and
have two little children. The plaintiff
alleges that her husband has failed to
support her and the. children, that he
has lain around and eaten up whatever
she could earn when she was able to
earn enough for the support OF the en-
tire family and that whenever he did
get hold Of any money he spent It on
liquor and on other women that he
finally deserted her and went to Koko-
mo, Ind, where he married one Ella J.
c.. Leech, without taking the trouble
to secure a divorce. The court finds
that Mrs. Bradley's allegations are
substantially correct and grants her a

Evening Grain Letter,

Chicago, Dec, 1S.-Wheat has held
stubbornly throughout the greater por-
weakened under pronounced and prom
inent selling and scored a decline OF
l 1-8c. Yesterdays government re-
port was too much Of a load to carry
in conjunction with the absolute lack
of outside interest and the unanimous
ly bullish attitude of the trade at
large. The lack Of cash demand either
for xport or domestic account was al
so a decided factor and the failure Of
foreigners to evince any interest in
holders evidently. Northwest markets
sympathized in the weakness and de-
clined relatively with this market. We
expect, however, on further declines
to see them hold stubbornly as the
situation in spring wheat is very strong
statistically, as compared with the ex-
weakness in winter.
Corr has ruled weak all day after a
firm opening. Poor cash demand and
an increase in country movement hue
the belt caused considerable selling of
corn both by the longs as well as
shorts. Leading holders were promin-
entity arrayed on the selling side of de-
ferred futures and commission house
buying was of a moderate character.
1t looks as If the prices would be car
ried still lower and on further breaks
we advocate purchases of May n
July.
Oats suffered a severe decline with
corn. Despite good commission houses
buying around AZ cents for May lead
ing local elevator concern sold heavily
and prices declined with wheat to a
low point Of the day. There was also
the closing out of spreads between
corn and oats which involved the SELL
ing of oats and this also ended to
weaken the pit situation.

No. l northern blue stem 1-4c to &c

This wheat is soft and not especially
desired by millers which accounts for
the wide spread on blue stem. Move
ment from other sections of the north
west moderate. Flour sales continue
light. Mills do not expect any i'm
provement until after first of the year

a more active demand is expected.
