Manual Training Work
To Go To Philadelphia

The manual training department is
making final arrangements for its ex-
hibit at the superintendent meeting
of the National association to be held
in Philadelphia from February "a to
March I. All parts of the United
States will be represented at this
meeting and few schools have been
asked to make exhibits of certain
phases of their work, among which
the Valley City State Normal school
is listed.
Prot. Selden, head of the depart
ment, stated yesterday that very lit.
tie finished work would be taken east,
but that this would be an exhibit to
show the work of the department in
progress as we'll as the system in use.
This system has been the subject OF
much comment among educational
circles throughout the country. Ny

Of the 1912 graduates practically
every member secured his or her
teaching position through the Normal
school. The registrar is devoting a
large amount of her time to the plac-
ing Of teachers, and if these were
placed through agencies the amount
charged by them would be five per
cent Of $so,61S94 or $4,03o.95. This
amount is therefore saved for the last
years graduates.
OF the 1863 graduates, six are teach.

1912 Normal Graduates
Cash Earnings Large
CASH EARNINGS LARGE-TOTAL
INCOME FOUND TO BE $s0,61e.94
PER YEAR BY REGISTRAR.

Should the 1912 graduates of the
Valley City State Normal school, who
are occupying teaching positions, de-
post their salaries in common ac-
count, the amount at the end of the
school year would reach the enormous
sum of $S0,61S.94, according to figures
compiled in the registrars office yes
terday. This would amount to a
monthly pay roll of $S,957.66, earned
by Al teachers averaging $63.53 each
month.
Of these teachers, one receives
$111.00 per month, which is the high
est salary received by any one in the
class. Three receive salaries of
$4,000 each; two receive $4,000 a
month; two receive $50; four receive
$1,000; eleven receive $500; nine re-
ceive $1,000; Twenty-Five receive
$65.OO; fifty-four receive $4,000; TWEEN
ty receive $500 and six receive $4,000
the lowest salary paid.
Out of the 1859 graduates of 1912,
twelve were from the advanced course
receiving a salary averaging some
what larger than that received by the
graduates from the regular normal
course. The average salary is $1,000,
with all the salaries ranging between
$4,000 and $500. Eleven of the grad
yates were from the domestic science
department, with salaries ranging
from $4,000 to $500. Four of the
graduates were from the manual train
ing department with salaries ranging
from $1,000 to $11100. One, of the
graduates was from the physical edu-
cation department and receives sal
airy of $4,000 a month. The remain
ing graduates were from the regular
normal course, with the exception Of

caying plant or animal matter, called
humus in the soil. This keeps sails
loose so that the air is admitted, re-
tains moisture, makes the soil warm
er, makes the rock particles dissolve
faster, and is the chief source of nj
trogen for growing plants. 1t can cas-
lily be seen from the above that soils
without humus would be Of no agricul-
tural value.
Soil Bacteria are the agencies of de-
cay. The bacteria are largely respon.
sible for the changing of plant and
animal remains to humus.
Plants are living organisms and
give of waste products from their
roots. We must be sanitary with our
plants as well as with our animals.
Suppose We kept chickens in the same
place year after year continuously
without making any attempt at clean
illness. Filth and disease would follow
almost Immediately and the chickens
would not thrive. The same thing
happens when we plant the same crop
in the same field year after year. The
soil becomes foul with body poisons
from the plants, and infested with
fungus diseases and noxious weeds
AS chicken diseases are not fatal tc
horses, so flax diseases and poisons dc

not effect corn and potatoes, etc., etc.
Rotation of crops then is essential to
continued successful farming. Crop
rotation also keeps up the humus sup
ply if it includes; as any good rota-
ton should, legume or grass crop.
There are several other important re.
suits of rotation which lack of space
prevents mentioning.
Host soils, We may conclude, if prop
erly drained, will remain perpetually
productive with proper tillage, keep
ing up the supply of humus, and a
proper rotation of crops.
In North Dakota We raise one grain
crop after another, sell the grain, and
burn the straw. We are drawing year.
ly on our supply of humus without re-
turning it, and fouling our fields with
weeds and diseases. We are prepar-
ing to leave to our children a heritage
of depleted fields which will take
years of toll and patience to return
to anything like their pristine produc-
tivity. We are spending all the fer
tility We can, lighting a match to the
rest like true prodigals, and leaving
but the empty bank to posterity.

Prof. nenry Writes
On Busting the Bank
TEACHER TELLS
OF WHAT PLANTS NEED AND
OF OUR OWN WASTE. IN
NORTH DAKOTA.

We "Flickertails" could be likened
to men who had received immense
fortunes from legacies and had start
ed out to see how quickly they could
spend both interest and principal.
We are shamefully wasteful, and
thoughtlessly improvident of the next
generation. Nature has bequeathed
to us some of the richest soils in the
world. We are raking off all we can
and burning what we cannot haul
away. .t.
Soil Composition.
Soils are made up of small rock par
ticles, soil water, sail air, decaying
plant and animal matter and bacteria.
No soil is productive, in an agricul-
tural sense, that does not contain all
the above. The greater part, in num-
bers at least, of the things that the
plant needs for its growth, is merely
rock particles dissolved in water the
plant takes up through its roots
Since this is so it follows that the
faster we can dissolve the rock par
ticles the more production the soil
will become. There is little danger
of dissoving these particles too fast
as new ones are continually taking
the place of the old. We can dissolve
sugar in coffee faster by stirring with
a spoon so tillage will release much
plant food which would not otherwise
be dissolved.
The roots of plants will not pene.
trate where there is not sufficient
amount of air. Hence wet compact
soils need drainage and cultivation
before they will become productive.
. Keep Up Supply Of Decay.
BY far the gravest question in
maintaining a permanent agriculture
is that of keeping up the supply of de-
