season interfered with the growth of
vegetables. Two men were at the
market this morning but, as the ar
Tangements were not complete for the
oren1ng, they did not display their
produce.
In many respects the city market is
an educational institution. In the east
in cities like Baltimore and Washing
ton, the market has grown up with
the town. Where people have been
used to ordering groceries over he
phone and having them delivered very
quickly, it is doubtful if they will
cater to the i~nconvenient public mar
ket. But the saving on produce that
will result as a result of personal
buying, it is believed, will make the
market speedily popular, especially to
the class that purchases from stores
direct.
If the gardeners are ready with
their produce next Saturday, the mar
ket will be officially opened on that
date. There is no doubt out what it
will prove successful after, it has been
tried a few weeks and a manifest saw
ing in purchases is noticed.

AIDING AN INDUSTRY.

The automobile hit the buggy in
dustry harder than il did the horse. The
demand for carriages and buggies suf-
fered a serious check when the auto
became a common vehicle. Not that
the buggy factories all shut down or
that they failed TO show profit but the
buggy manufacturer was obliged to
seek the south and some parts of the
west where rough roads and short bank
accounts favored the horse vehicle as
against the gas driven motor
The other day a string of CONSOLE
dated school buses went by on the
ton IN the county where school con-
so'idat!on had been completed. Inquiry
reveals that a local buggy factory is
working two shifts of men filling orders
for school buses.
1t is matter of mutual advantage
The schools are improved and an in
dustry benefited. One Improvement
always brings another The rise of
school consolidation will give the buggy
factories an impulse that will TO a con-
siderable degree al least Offset the
losses caused by the advent of the auto
as common vehicle.
But at that the gas motor merely
bides its time waiting for the permanent
highway and the motor school bus is
waiting around the corner for the road
maker

ligerents of Boy Scouts for military;

BUSINESS MANAGEMENT.
tDes Moines Tribune.

Not many taxpayers stop 20 consider
that the school board distributes each
year nearly as much money as the city
council.
This money is all spent in dribs, for
school houses, for hundreds of teachers.
for books and incidentals.
With five men on the city council
giving their whole time to it there is
enough waste and bad management in
city affairs to make the citizen who
looks for the ideal city 10 almost give
up in despair.
What is 10 be expected of school
board that only meets occasionally at
odd hours to attend the schools as an
incident OF the days work?
The Evening Tribune is informed
that Superintendent Thornburg made
an estimate Of SEQ 900 for school books
for the present year. The school books
have already cost over $4,000.
That is sample of school manage
ment not only in Des Moines. but In
every school district in Iowa.
What other body of people in Iowa
but a school board would propose
raise in taxation at one jump OF
mills?
There could be a saving OF more tnan
all the school board would get from
an s-miIl levy. in the present manage
ment of the schools, and Des MONIES
have better schools
What Des Moines needs. and what
every school district In Iowa needs, Is

THE KEY NOTE.


Governor Clarke's address to the
members OF the Boone Commercial AS
ISOLATION was full OF excellent advice
and encoura cement, but the key noe
seemed, 10 be IL his story Of Roches-
ter business man who had grown
wealthy. and who stopped to think
where he had acquired his wealth and
decided to pay Rochester back by de-
voting year to building up her public
institutions.
If only Governor Clarke's story
would sink home in the minds of the
citizens of Boone! II every man who
has grown wealthy in this city would
devote year to building up Boone. not
her public institutions, for she is well
supplied in that respect, but her indus
tries, which would bring population. II
every dollar which has gone out OF
Boone in investments. many Of them
futile. some of the more or less sue
cessful, had been kept here. what a
city we would have! If every man who
I has succeeded in Boone would feel a
debt OF gratitude that would cause him
to study the matter of Boone's growth
| earnestly for year. and not be salts
fed until he had set some new institu-
ton going. large or small. how long
would 1t be before we had 10000 pop
uiaton?
These are things to think about. MOI
