Free Text Books

It is said Illustrating the deadly character of formadehyde gas. that if germ the most tenacious life placed in the middle of tightly clasped family bible in closed room into which the gas should be poured through keyhole for two hours the germ would killed.
 Thus abruptly brought to the free text hook question which has been revived by com muncation by Hon. w E. Brooks of Ga county, author of the free book law, to the Globe Silver Belt, in reply criticism of it.
 The taxpayers have not yet felt the effect of the law. When it became operative it was decided by the authorities that it late to make con- tracts with the publishing houses for the present school year. The real reason. however. why the law was not put effect probably was that it then with prophetic eye that there would not be enough money for other purposes.
 It was estimated law would cost the about $13O,OOO for the first year. This esti- mate was based rough estimates this county showing that would cost about s30O00 here. That probably too high guess but it is supposed annually after the first the expense to the state would be less than $5O,O00.
 With abnormal fear of microbes the law makers provided against the retention of the books by the state; they should belong the pupil when he was with them; they might probably descend to his younger brother sister The idea of the legislators to have been to keep the microbes in family by species of entail which is con- trary to the spirit 0 American institutions.
 compaI atively few cases are there younger children to inherit the books elder brothers sisters regular annual succession that many of the worthless after the has passed to another grade. Thus, there is a heavy annual loss to taxpayers.
 It strike the taxpayers well as all who intelligent notions regarding microbes that this a great, unnecessary waste of the public money Under law, this situation: A pupil may his the end of the school year by which with germs which all pupils in the school have less accessible. If he does not pass his grade he returns his germ-laden books the next year. or perhaps they brought back by his little brother sister in succession. while all the other pupils required have untanted

 Hence. alusion in the beginning to formade- hyde as an effective germicide.

Teaching Fruit Growers in Germany

Instruction by itinerant teachers is feature of German agricultural education, especially in fruit growing, according to information received at the United O Education through consular advices. The work is similar to the agricultural extension work carried in some sections of the differences.
 The school for wine and fruit growers at Kreuz- mach instructors the entire district of 200 villages. The plan is found to be excellent not only the farmers who receive the direct beneft, but the teachers themselves who are enabled to keep close touch with the practical side of their work. This instruction is furnished without charge
 The horticultural school at Oppenheim, besides giving instruction by lectures and furnishing prac tical aid to the farmers has introduced model vine yards" The school and the vineyard proprietors enter five-year contract by the terms of which the school exercises supervision the vineyards and the vineyard agrees to follow the direc- tons of the school in every particular The school makes charge for this service. There are about a dozen such model vineyards in the Grand Duchy HeSSe.

Taxpayers Protest

The citizens of Snowflake, Navajo county. re- gently held mass meeting and appointed con- mittee prominent citizens to investigate tn" causes of the increase of taxation fpf state and county purposes In the course of the meeting a suggestion made for the reduction Of salaries of officials. Opposition also expressed -o thc proposed s1OOOO.OOO bond issue for road purposes.
 We are not informed the causes immedi- ately impelng the meeting of the Snowflake tax payers but probably of them is found in the figures relating assessment and taxation published by The Republican November last.
 Referring that table find that the assess ment of Navajo county property Hast year $2 54l 466 increase the year before of about twenty per cent. $552.559.46 The taxation for state purposes alone was $222769S, increase of $57574s or about twenty-five per cent. We have no available figures showing the amount of the increase of taxes in Navajo for county purposes probably appalling small county whose only industries agriculture a small scale and stock raising.
 There is a great deal of muttering throughout the against the heavier taxation. We find the following Bisbee Review:
 Word comes from Phoenix that the compelling reason postpOning the meeting of the Arizona legislature last year this the fact that the treasury empty. At the rate the money going Phoenix the outlook is that the treasury win he emptier next December than last"
 The trouble with foregoing is that it is merely a complaint: complaints founded and some are not There is here suggestion of plan of relief if there relief if relief is possible.
 The people of Snowflake have gone about the matter the right way. in the way suggested by The Republican some months ago, by intelligent and cooperative action by citizens ascertain whether public money than is really necessary, is being collected and whether the money is being judiciously expended
 We assuming that the plans for relief casually mentioned in the Snowflake meeting, by reducing salaries and opposing the road bond issue wise They possibly represent false econom ical there is much be inquired into.
 We trust that such committees will be ap- pointed all the state before the next meeting legislature and that representations will be made that body which will induce most careful consideration of the needs the state before the appropriations made.
 Again. would advise the adoption of the budget system in place of the guessing system under which. hitherto. provision has been made for the
