Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1913-02-26
Larrabee County.

A bill has been introduced in the
legislature providing for the division
of Kossuth county into two counties.
the new county to be named LARA
bee, in honor of the late distinguish
ed governor of Iowa. Kossuth coun-
ty is too unwieldy for administrative
purposes and the best interests of all
the people would be served by the di-
vision. Under the bill Swea City is
to be the county seat of the new coun-
ty. The suggestion to name the new
county after the late Governor Lar
rabee is fitting recognition of what
that distinguished statesman did for
his state and as his name is a house
hold word in ever home in northern
Iowa the new county would suggest
honesty and integrity. BY the divi-
sion of Kossuth county Iowa would
have an even one hundred counties.

FOR CUSTODIAL FARMS.
Attorney General Cosson Prepares
Bill for Providing Four
in State.

Des Moines, Ia, Feb. 24.-Attorn-
ey General Cosson has carefully pre-
pared his bill to provide for the four
custodial farms which are to be a
part of the general scheme of reorg-
anization as to penal system in this
state. The state is to be divided in
to four districts and there are to be
four of these farms. They are to
take the places of the jails of the
state in so far as the jails are used
for the purpose of Furnishing persons
convicted of petty offenses. The Jail
will remain merely as a place of de-
tention but never to be used as a
place of punishment and all commit
ments are to be to these custodial
farms. This is in accord with mod
ern thought as to the best method of
getting at the problem of reform of
the petty offenders. An appropria-
ton of 100000 will be carried to
start the work and make the pur-
chase of the farms.
These four farms are to be separ-
ate from the state custodial farm
which is to be general reformatory
for persons who would otherwise go
to Anamosa or Fort Madison.

SOLUTION OF RURAL SCHOOLS
Deputy State Superintendent Sees 1t
in the Consolidated
School.

Il am more than evr convinced
that the consolidated school is the key
to the problem of the rural school and
rural life betterment," declared Mr..
Frank d. Joseph, the brilliant dep
uty superintendent of public instruc-
tion
Mr.. Joseph and Mr.. Deyoe visited
some of the rural consolidated schools
of northern Iowa the past week.
THE consolidated rural school of
Garfield in Clay county is good IL
lustration of what is being done.
They united six schools with terri
tory of 23 and a half sections. They
built a schoolhouse of four rooms,
beneath which is full sized base
ment with playroom and assembly
hall. They moved two of the old
houses up to the 4-acre tract and have
a comfortable home for the princip-
al. All the teachers have had some
special training for the work. They
run six hacks to bring the children
and the children like the plan. The
schools are graded and they do bet
ter work than could have been possi-
lie under the old method. The total
cost is about $500 a year more than
the old system but, they get in addi-
tion 2-year high school course. This
is a fine sample of a consolidated
school apart from any town or viii
lage."
Prof. Fred Mahannah of the nor
NAL department, also last week visit
ed some model schools, among them
the consolidated school at College
Springs in Page county. one of the
best in the state. where most excel
lent work Is being done. Mr.. Mahan-
nah is loud in his praise of the work
he found there.
There is an unquestioned steady
growth of the consolidation idea in
regard to rural schools. largely be-
cause ofthe success of the schools al
ready established and proving their
value.
