Early Fall Flowing Pays.

Flowing early in the fall liberates
more plant food for the spring crop
and conserves more moisture. BY
loosening the surface soil, thus allow
ing the air to penetrate, the soil par
ticles, which contain phosphorus, po-
tassium, and lime are caused to oxi-
die, which sets free these elements
for the plant. The soil compounds
originally are very complex and are
practically. of no benefit to the crop
until they are acted upon by the air,
the solutions in the soil, and plant
juices, so as to decompose them and
make them much simpler. Fall plow-
ing has tendency to let the rains
percolate into the soil better, which
tends to dissolve and break up the
compounds or the use Of the spring.
crop. ..-.... ... =
Bacteria, which are found in the
soil in countless numbers, generally
work better where oxygen from the
air is readily available, and these in
turn break up the organized matter,
of the soil into simpler compounds,
liberating nitrates or nitrogen, food
for the plant. This is one of the
INST essential elements for the early
growth of the plant. 1t is often no.
ticed that spring blowing will not
cause crops to lodge SO badly as fall
blowing. This is explained by nitro
gen being set free to a larger extent
in the loose, porous, fall-plowed than
in the more compact soil.
The moisture problem is also val
liable one from the standpoint Of pro-
ductiveness of the soil. As stated
above, by opening up the soil the fall
rains percolate much more rapidly
into the soil, while there is a mulch
formed on the surface which tends to
prevent the water from the subsoil
going directly to the surface and be-
ing evaporated. Early fall blowing
makes reservoirs of the subsoil, stor-
ing the water for the crop in the

VALUATIONS WAY UP.

The constant pounding of Income Tax
Assessor Joseph Connell in an effort to
make assessors obey the law requir-
ing assessments at actual values seems
to have borne fruit in the city as well
as in the towns. The city valuation
has jumped from the 80, 300, 900 of last
year to Sll, ,770,7 this year, almost q
millions. The largest increases are in
merchants and manufacturer stocks
which are said to have been grossly
undervalued. The increased size Of
the Rahr Sons plant has caused an in
crease of S200,000 in valuation The
board of review convened Monday and
will be in session ten days. They can
not change the assessors figures with
out testimony under oath as to the ac-
tual value. 1t is reported that some
vigorous protests will be made.

TEACHING THE BOY TO
STAY AT HOME.
From Hoard's Dairyman.)

In an article of recent date regard
ing the rural school problem | read;
s'They (the parents) must realize that
the school room is an adjunct of the
home.' Upon this very thing the
success of the rural school, and urban
school also, rests. But how can they
realize such condition when it does
not exist Nor will any system of high
school teaching, as it is now outlined,
be it ever so efficient, bring it into ex-
istence. The home life interests the
child directly and intensely, but in no
way is rural education, as rural educa-
tion is generally understood, connected
with this life.
The child upon theiarm grows up in
an atmosphere of agriculture. He
knows the time OF seeding for various
crops and the date of harvest He is
taught by his environment the care of
animals. Weather conditions as they
affect farm operations are forcibly pre-
sented to him. He has knowledge of
birds, insects and plants to that extent
that he knows something of their rela-
ton to the farm and to each other. He
knows a little of buying and selling.
In short the things that surround him
are at least known by him to exist and
their influence upon his life is to IA
measure understood
WHERE TIL f. SCHOOL FAILS.
The school is entirely another factor
in his life. These things that surround
him are not explained more fully. He
is taught in new terms. He gets n
vision of things unknown before. His
public school education is designed TO
lead TO the high school and this in turn
leads 10 the university. But few pu-
pills ever attend the high school and
fewer still the university. So all the
education the farm boy or girl gets
leads no place at all for them. They
are luEDCd dNhg iGDii illc llhllLHllDH VI
learning with no more knowledge OF
their profession then they had when
they entered it. They simply go to
swell the ranks Of unskilled laborers
so far as anything the school has done
for them is concerned.
SO the problem before the education
alst is to bridge this gap between tho
school life and the home life. A sys
TEN is necessary that will give culture
and at the same time will fit the boy
and girl to become successful in Their
life work. The urban industrial schoo
has been instituted for this purpose
Our rural schools have been slower t,
adopt this idea In this article | shal
tell how the educational department o
Ontario is beginning to solve the pro
blem of developing an efficient rura
school system in this province.

EDUCATIONAL.
(BY C. W. MEIsNEsT.)

Manitowoc county is becoming we'll
organized along the various lines OF
countries activities. The schools of
the county and the teachers are well
organized through the media of teach
ers' meetings, town and county con-
tests, conventions and various forms of
farmers clubs.
Among the more recent develop
ments toward organization in the coun-
try communities of Manitowoc county
are, Manitowoc County Order of Wis.
Agricultural Experiment Station, Hor-
ticultural Society, local community
clubs, the Grange, Guernsey BREEDERS
Association, Holstein- FriesianBreeders
Association, and the Poultry Breeders.
Great good must come from such or
ganization, not only for the individual
mcmber, but for the county in general.
Tnc general interest as manifested
in TIE recent Holstein Breeders picnic
and also the Guernsey Breeders picnic,
as shown by the large number of
people present, clearly shows the ten
dency of the modern farmer. He is
anxious to know of the good things
along his line, and to keep in touch
with men of his kind in the county.
The benefits to be derived 10y being
a member of Breeders association
may be briefly summed up as follows:
1st To get in closer touch and form
a better acquaintance with yo2r fellow
breeder.
2nd. To learn how to Judge cattle
and get familiar with the popular blood
lines of the breed.
3rd. To learn how to advertise what
you have for sale and how to advance
the breed.
4th. Ben nsfits to be derived in the
sale of cattle AMI sale and exchange of
sires.
9th. Lastly and the most important
of all SIN Cooperation there is
Strength"

BOY CRIPPLED BY TRAIN.

Stephen Musil, aged II years, was

under car. His right leg was sever
ed at the knee, two fingers of the right
hand were severed and he received
other serious injuries. He was rushed
to the hospital and his life saved. He
denies that he attempted to hop on
the train. The youngsters stoicism
and nerve in assisting in binding up
his leg and the endurance at the hos
pital ELECTED general admiration. His
pluck aided materially in saving his
life. He is son of Mr.. and Mrs. An
ton Musiel, respected residents OF the
1th ward.

LOCAL VETERANS AT GETTYSBURG

Four citizens of Manitowoc county
took advantage of the states generos-
ity in paying expenses of survivors of
the battle of Gettysburg to the semi
centennial of the battle held on the
battle site on the first four days of
July this year. They are j. S. Ander-
son, Francis Stirn of this city and
Henry Wack of Town Newton and John
Gilbert of Valders, Peter Hoffman of
Centerville was prevented from attend
ing by illness. They were all mem
bers of Co. A Fifth Wisconsin, the
first organization to leave the county
for the front in 1861. Judge Anderson
reports that it was the largest gather
ing of survivors of the old Fifth held
since the war. 1t was treat to the
veterans to meet old comrades, sleep
under canvas, eat government rations
again and fraternize with the enemy of
80 years ago. The soldier "boys" re-
turned early this week.

COMPANY \ AT CAMP.

Capt. Walter Abel and fifty-two
members of Co. III, Second Wisconsin
National Guards left in a special train
last Saturday morning for Camp Doug
las. The first and second regiments
have joint encampment this year for
10 days. The train picked up most OF
the other companies at Fond du Lac.
The annual encampment is not the
picnic affair it once was. 1t is now
largely made up of hard drilling under
the directions of officers loaned by
Uncle Sam, and aims at improvement
in efficiency rather than a skylark.

CASE BALL.,

The reported shake-up in the ball
team came of and the result shows its
wisdom. Manitowoc beat the strong
kosciuskos 4 to , on the Fourth. The
new men are "Big Chief" Williams,
an indian, in the center garden, Nap
erstek in right and Mauser at short,
Pete Herzog was shifted to third base.
McGlynn pitched steady ball ana was
given good support. He was very
effective in the pinches, pitching him
self outof several bad holes. Although
the locals solved Grell's puzzles for
only seven safe hits most of them were
extra base wallops and four of them
came in one inning netting of the 4
runs made The victory put some
heart into the local fans who were be-
ginning To desDair.

GREAT BATTLE NEAR GETTYSBURG.
"A great battle has been going on
since July between the rebels under
Longstreet and Hill and the First and
Eleventh corps under Generals Meade
and Reynolds. A portion of the fight
has been very severe and attended
with heavy loss. 1t is believed that on
the second day we suffered heavy loss
es in officers and men, but Lee is so
crippled as to be placed on the defens-
i've. Lee holds gap in South Noun
tain through which he hopes to es-
cape if defeated.

The Pilot Office being now so located
that people can drop in out of mere
curiosity without the obstacle of mount
ing a stairway, callers are becoming
too numerous. 1t is a delicate subject
on which to speak, but 'business is
business" and the propretcrs of the
paper feel they cannot afford to have
the office turned into reception room
for the entertainment of those who
have an abundance of time to spend.
If parents will instruct their children
to keep out of the Office unless they
have business, an immense amount of
annoyance will be saved. No loafers
are wanted and The Office is not play
room for boys.
