that there will be sufficient time
and warm weather to mature the
corn crop in good shape this year
Four varieties have been planted,
mostly small Minnesota yellow dent
varieties that will mature early
and that will stand the cold nights.
He has arranged for corn expert
to look after the management, but
we suspect that after Mr.. Carve r

corn, he will have no time to listen
to the expert.

Good Roads Election

According to the Statesman. the
county commissioners will call an
election to vote on a county bond
issue for the purpose of macadam-
izing the county road from the
end of the present macadam near
Coles school house through to
Meridian and on north side of the
river from Collister through to
Eagle. This would make an ideal
auto loop, besides being of great
value to the ranchers. The grad
ing at Coles school is already
done so that the work could COM
mence at once as soon as the bonds
are voted.
The board has decided to hold
the election right after the good
roads convention, about the mid
die of June, for the purpose of
voting on bond issue of 100000,
the proceeds to be used for the
construction of good roads. The
commissioners learn that the in
terest on 100000 will cost the tax
payers of the county nothing in
addition to what they will have to
pay under the new state highway
law in the way Of license on auto
ombiles. 1t will not cost the man
who does not own an automobile a
cent, and will be grand thing for

will mean many miles of macadam

ECONOMY OF
 CITY SCHOOLS
Dr. David Gibbs Compares Ex-
 penseS of Various Places
AVERAGE COST PER CHILD
Answer to Argument That Too Much Money Is Devoted to Education Rate for Ten Cities
 Is $40.

Meriden.-Dr. David Gibbs, super. intendent Of schools. in his annual report, answers the argument often heard in this city nowadays that Meriden is spending too much money for schools Dr. Gibbs compares the cost of schools in other cities and one of his tables shows that Hartford spends s54.45 per child, Stamford s50.62, Middletown S41.55, Waterbury s40.54, Greenwich s4095, New Haven s3s16. Meriden s3S51, Norwich S35.- 4. New Britain s32S4, Bridgeport s30.6S. Thus" says Dr Gibbs. the average cost per child of the ten cities named above in 1911-12 was s4044"
 Continuing the superintendent asys:-"The cost in Meriden was sSS.51, or s1s3 per child less than the average. The increase ia appro- priation for 1913-14 Is s2S. GOO tthe present appropriation is s15S.190.27l, but if the average attendance shall increase in the same ratio which in- creased attendance as last year the cost per child for 1913-14 will be about S4l. The average cost of 22 cities of Massachusetts is s45. The average of eleven other cities is S41.- 13. On this basis, therefore, Meri- den Is not spending too much for it's schools.
 The cost per capita of population is another means of comparing the total exI aditures for schools. The average cost of the schools of four teen cities of Connecticut per capita of population was s523 in 1911-12. and in Meriden it was s4.S6. In re- lation to the population as well as to school attendance the school expend- itures in Meriden are more than justi- fed
 Dr. Gibbs gives figures to show that Meriden spend comparatively less for the board of education. superin- tendent and administration of schools and less for miscellaneous than other cities Of the State. but more for the instruction of children and more for the operation and care of school buildings.
