bleeds and becomes discolored, are
also made In the report. No effort
Is made to carry out the purpose Of
the school. that Of training the minds
OF the boys who are sent there, ac-
cording to another charge, but on the
contrary, the boys are receiving no
particular training In anything that

ed severely for any Inaccuracies.
Recommend Removal.
The report states: at is recon-

taken to place some one in charge OF
said school who has energy and
ability. some one who II competent

school as the state is sorely in need
Of some one who will get to work
and make use Of such facilities as are
at hand until more adequate cDes
are obtalnable."

Remarkable time has been made in
the manufacture of this book, as it
was only November 9Th that the first
32 page form was received from the
press, and yesterday completed copies
were being delivered. Owing to the
long press run all the pages Of the
book were made into copper plates,
as the type would not stand up for
press runs OF such length. The COW

class art, showing in colors the diff
ferent kinds of corn raised by the

with the emigrant wagon drawn by
a team Of oxen going westward is still
in evidence on the cover, but there
are many other changes, and those
who receive a copy Of this handsome
