IMPORTANCE OF RURAL
AND GRADED SCHOOLS.

According to F. r. Barnes, superin-
tendent of schools of Richland coun-
ty, the rural and graded schools are
the most important. Out of the 1000
school children in Richland county but
228 will enter high school; only 12S
will finish the first year and only
twenty eight out of the 1000 will grad
uate from high school. All the. educa-
ton that the other 90 per. cent of the
children get will be in the rural and
graded schools. And less than i per
cent graduates from high school. This
is a good deal better than it has been
in the past, but 1t emphasizes the need
of making the rural schools as effective
as possible.
"The new course of study for North
Dakota schools is a big step in the
right direction" says Mr.. Barnes. 1T
brings in nature study from the first
and puts agriculture in the seventh and
eighth grades. This will do two things.
First, give the child a new attitude to-
ward nature and the farm, and second,
give some very valuable information
and ONE of the fundamentals of agri-
culture"

c~aIifornia's Dramatic Advent.

Leslie's: When, on Jan. "a, 1s4S,
James w. Marshall found the particles
of yellow dust in the tail race of
Suffers mill on the south fork of
the American river, forty miles north
east of the present city of Sacramento,
he gave a turning point to American
history, and ne altered the current of
the worlds story. At that moment,
down at Guadalupe Hidalgo, a suburb
of the city of Mexico, $500 miles.
away, the American and Mexican
commissioners were arranging the
terms which ended the war between
their respective countries. In that
pact, signed nine days later, Mexico,
including the present Nevada, Utah,
Arizona and parts of Colorado and
Wyoming, to the United States. But
neither they nor anybody else in
either nation dreamed of the treasure
house thus transferred, or of the
significance of that 'find" near the
foothills of the Sierra.
Although Suffer, Marshall and their
workingmen attempted to keep the
discovery a secret. it gradually pene-
trated to other settlements on the Pa
cific coast, and made its way by ship
to Hawaii, Australia, China, Mexico,
South America, the United States and
Europe. From the four corners Of the
globe a. wild stampede startetd for
the valley of the Sacramento, with
the result that nearly 100000 people
were there and in regions immediate
ly surrounding by 1850, and Cali
fornia knocked for admission as a
state, before the congress at Wash
ington had time to organize it as a
territory. Its admission, rs part of
the compromise of 1850, broke the bal
ance between the slave and the free
states by giving the latter the pre-
po~nderance, gave a new impetus to
immigration from Europe and the
eastern and southern states to the
west and northwest, started the chain
of events which precipitated the con-
flict between the north and the south
which abolished slavery, killed the
doctrine Of secession, transformed our
country from a league into a nation
and made the United States an inde-
| structible union of indestructible
/ states,

HI KIssLEss r

Washington Post: 1t is now easy to
appreciate just how .Peary would have
felt if, upon attaining the goal of his
ambition, he had observed affixed to
the big nail a placard bearing the
words: Copyright, 1911, by Doc.
Cook. or to understand these emo
tions which would ave surged through
the brain of Christopher Columbus, If,
upon landing on the isles of his dreams,
he had been met by a newsboy with
an extra" announcing full account OF
the discovery of America" The story
of Baltimore's kissless bride has been
punctured!
1t is as if me had located the eighth
wonder Of the world, and had gloated
over it, and had then awakened from
a troubled sleep to find that it was
only a. dream. The report that Mrs.
Theresa Deems, the unkissed wife and
mother of Baltimore, had in all
her life tasted the delights of oscula-
ton, had never slipped nectar from the
lips of love aroused the world as only
the announcement of the discovery of a
new continent could have done. To the
truth of her statement she swore l
court. She had never kissed her hus-
band, had never kissed her child, and,
she said, if confronted with the alter
native of kissing somebody or dying
she would prefer death. Skepticaf sas
the world is, it accepted what she said
as truth, and overnight Mrs. Deems
became that long-sought eighth won
der-a woman who had never been
kissed.
And then her husband had to spoil it
all. What! never been kissed2" cried
he. "Why. I've kissed her a thousand
times. Do you think I would have
married a girl without kissing her? 7
guess not. I kiss her all the time, and
she always kisses me back"
Thus is another illusion destroyed,
and while the incident stamps Mrs.
Deems as being entirely normal, one
cannot but regret that she has been
taken down from the pinnacle of soli-
tary fame. It would have been pleasant
to reflect that there was one girl in
! the world who had w been kissed.
Many a girl who otherwise might have
succeeded in convincing her beau that
he was really, truly, cross-my-heart
the only mar who ever, ever kissed her.
by referring to the a of Mrs. Deems
by way of confederation, cannot do so
now. Her only chance remains, as in
the past. to sidestep this embarrassing
proposition to the best OF her ability.

Moorhead Department
Clay County Potato
Growers in Convention
Good Attendance at Opening Session Which Was Called to
Order by President /. A. Huntoon-First and Second
Prizes Combined and Given to Two High Men

financial returns per acre, the work
to be done under average conditions.
The price fixed was IS cents a bushel
for sorted potatoes, but the contest
ants reporting delivered their products
unsorted as a basis of 40 cents a
bushel for field run was established.
Mr.. Koehler added that other changes
had to b. made in, establishing awards
and it had been decided in the interest
of absolute fairness that the first and
second monies be added together and
! equally divided between the W men
with highest net returns and they
were, Albert Holm of the Buffalo river
country who had a net return of $41.29
per acre and Henry Schroeder of
Sabin with a net return of $41,27 pei
acre. Professor Koehler called for
Mr.. Holm and to him was handed two
new $40 gold pieces with appropriate
accompanying remarks. Mr.. Schroeder
was belated and he will receive his
this afternoon. The third prize $40
in gold was awarded to A. T. Grover
whose net return per acre
to $33.37. Enthusiastic applause was
a feature of the awarding of the prizes
and it was announced that there were
over fifty growers already who had
signified their intention of getting into
the game the coming spring.
President Huntoon followed with
his address which was e~xtemporane-
Gus and for that cas- was the more
acceptable to his hearers. Mr.. Hun
toon cited cOncfete examples which
emphasized the benefits to those who
held memberships in the association.
He stated plainly that no community
could prosper without an association
such rs the one he was addressing.
Hundreds of men in the potato world
over the United States knew of just
one county in Minnesota n only n
they could name and that was Clay
county. The time was here when
what had been done for the Red river
valley Ohio potatoes must be done for
Red river Triumphs, the latter must
v a trademark and official sacks
1t must be done for self preservation.
Leslie Welter gave, a short account
of his trip to New Orleans as a dele
gate to the convention of the Western
Fruit Jobbers' association which also
included the produce men. Mr.. Welt
er, too, emphasized the Importance of
association. 1t was the only way in
which the men at the other end could
be properly reached and known.
Individual growers could never do it
and the men at the other end who
were out for the best appreciated the
association of the producers.

There was a very encouraging at
tendance at the third annual meet
ing of the Clay County Potato Grow
ers' association when it was called TO
order by l.. A. Huntoon, president,
shortly after 10 o'clock this morning.
The Masonic lodge room was com
fortably filled and it was announced
that more were on the way on belated
trains. Several members were de-
tanned at home by sickness.
The financial report of q. d. Grant,
secretary and treasurer, showed that
the receipts for the year ending Feb.
Is last amounted to $957.S3 and he
presented a detailed statement of ex-
penditures. The report was approved
and the ground of good business Les
lie Welter moved that the chair ap-
poin an audit committee of two and
H. e. Roberts of the Moorhead Ma
tional bank and Jorgen Jensen were
to check over the bills and
audit the accounts.
Secretary Grant is referring to
what had been done by the board of
directors at the five meetings held
the yea said that the board
recommended that the association
adopt a trademark. for Red river

dition to the states in which it Is

At this point President Mackall of
the commercial club expressed greet
ings of the club in very happy terms
and then extended to all present to be
guests Of the club at a luncheon to be
at the Hotel Comstock, an
enterprise which had come into being
since the last meeting.
Prizes Awarded,
President Huntoon called for Pro-
fessor Koehler of the agricultural COL
who was ready to make his re-
port on the potato growing contest
conducted last year for the 500 in
prizes offered by the First National
bank Of Moorhead. There was not
