few schools, it was easy to do this, but
in the valley counties whece the district
school system had prevailed for num-
Der OF years, the protest against any
change was too strong and the legisla-
tors had to leave these counties as they
we're and as most of them still remain.
Where there is comparatively thick
ly populated county Immediately sur
rounding small town, it would seem to
be good agreement for both the
country and the village to join forces,
and thus give the country boys and girls
the advantage of the graded village
schools. That, we say, looks for advan-
tage, but here is District No. One, the
first organized school district of the
state, both the city and country have
agreed to an opposite policy in practice
if not in theory. At least three country
districts have been cut off from this dis
trict and made into new and indepen-
dent districts, within five miles of the
city.
These people simply insisted on such
an agreement and the city people have
let them go without protest, for while
we lost some taxes, on the other hand
outlying districts were always source
of trouble.
The great fact is that the country
people have love for the country school
house. l. is the social center of the
neighborhood. 1t is where their child
hood hours we're spent, it is where they
mated and later sent children of their
own to school. 1t is the one object in
which all the neighborhood is interest
ed; it is where they meet on common
level, and whether to fix 1t up or fight
over it, it is equally neighborhood
question.
There's great big question before
the educators of to-day that has not yet
been settled, though they rarely speak
of it outside of their own circles, and
that is, do the high schools of to-day
turn out better scholars than did the
little red school house Of fifty years ago?
Can the average, high school graduate
read, write and spell any better than the
old-time graduate of the country school?

SiIOs $50 and. Up.

Gus Lundgten, manager of the
Long-Rell yard in this city, tells
US he has 'em all skinned on the
silo proposition this year. He
says he can sell silos from $50 up.
He has the agency for the Tulsa,
Unadilla, Tung-Lok, Cement and
Common Sense kinds, and can
furnish them in any and all
sizes.
Now is the time to figure with
him. He is going to be known
as "Silo Gus" before the summer
is over. He says he can sell a
fine 75.ton silo for 500. Just
think of that, you fellows who
are keeping a good bunch of
cows. Or If you want bigger
ones, he can furnish them, too.
No matter how good a crop
you may have this year, build a
silo. Give your stock rich green
feed next winter-get 100 per cent
feeding value out of everything
you put in the silo. You know
it will pay. If you doubt it, ask
the fellows who are feeding Sc
lage this winter.

Several Successful Tours Of the Con-

cent Lozito an Accomplished Leader.
The Chautauqua certainly has the
band this summer!
II 10 Vincent Lozito's italian Band Of
New York city, all Italians and all first
class musicians.
We think Lozlto's italian Band Is Just
q little better than pretty nearly any
other Chautauqua band we know of.
The music is just right, and the band
has a little better ChautauQua spirit,
we think, than most bands. Its men,
bers are coming out in attractive cos
tunes and win make a fine showing
upon the platform.
1t IL not saying too much to state that
this hand confirms some really great
musicians. Italians as a people are
music loving to a degree not able to be
understood by we Americans. They
have developed the study Of music to
a fine art, and there is hardly an Ital-
Inn In this country but who Is able to
play some instrument or other, and
play It well.
The musicians In Lozlto's Band are
professionals. They not only possess
the typical italian love and apprecia-
ton Of music, but they are able to ex-
press 1t In most artistic way, because
they have had long professional train
Ing. Practically half Of the members
Of this Italian band are sOloists.
ChautauQuo patrons will hear n great
deal Of fine music from Lozito's Band.
SignOr Vincent Lozito, the director, is
an extremely able bandmaster and lik-'
able gentleman. He has had wide ex-
perience In the conducting of famous
bands. and the fact that he has any
company Of musicians in charge is a
safe guarantee Of the ability of that
company Of musicians. He has had
the best Of training under European
teachers and Is one of Americas most
popular bandmasters.
Among the important engagements
at which Lozito's Italian Band has
played recently we might mention the
one at Palisades park, New York city.
There the band last year played for q
six months engagement It Is COM
ing to the Chautauquas fresh from
sixteen weeks of consecutive time at
the same place. Palisades park is q
prominent resort In the city of New
York. and the length Of its engagement
and the fact that Il AGs been recalled
fer Al alanlly long one is n pretty ef.
tSctive tribute to its worth and ability
70 please.
Tho band will be here on the fourth
day Of the Chautauqua and will give
two grand concerts. There will be mu-
sic OF the highest class, both popular
and standard. Needless to say that
there will be many novelty features
