L Bond, who has recently been osssting in number of county snnerintendency campaigns over tbe state, in discussing the im> nrtance of county supervision said;
 "The work of superintendent is of far reaching importance to tbe schools of any county. The work of a county superintendent
 to avery great degree bears the
 same relation to the schools of
 the county that the work of a
 city superintendent bears to the
 schools of such town or city. No
 one would question for a moment
 the value and importance of eff .
 cient supervision to the schools
 of any one of our towns or cities. In like manner there can be no
 question as to the far reaching
 importance and avlue of efficient
 county supervision to the schools Of such county"
 Fifteen counties in the state
 have already adopted the super
 vision plan of work for their
 schools and the results in i'm
 proved school conditions in these superintended counties have
 without exception proved most satisfactory. The superintend- ents in these counties have care fully studied the needs and con, dltlons of the schools and having found out at first hand the needs

 The county superintendent is the recognized head of the school work of the county. His office is and should be clearing house. of ideas and plans for the schools of the county. He is not dicta- tor in school matters but rather his attitude and position is one of sympathetic cooperation in all matters looking to the improve ment and betterment of h e schools. He does not assume or take away any of the rights, du- ties or powers of directors, teach CTS or school patrons. but rather he aids and assists in increasing in so far as possible the efficien- cy Of the schools.

Iowa is Finding Her Disease

Iowa was the only state in the Union that lost population during the last decade. Farming and stock raising was and is her prin- cipal resource. Now the legisla- tors have decided that the cause of this decrease was the neglect to train the children of the state in the art of agriculture and scientific stock breeding. Accord ing to this trouble they have set about to remedy this by establish ing an agricultural and manual training high school in every county in the state. The moral of this is clear. No state or com munity can afford to neglect it's own industries in it's scheme of education. Mere text book rou- tine is not sufficient. Educated and trained workers make satis- fled and efficient workers. They are the ones not in the strikes and not always migrating,
