COLLEGES ARE NEEDED
Says President Thomas in Considering
Carnegie Foundation Report.

Middlebury college has issued as
bulletin the statement of President
Thomas at the hearing before the YER
mont educational commission. 1t is not
a general attack upon the Carnegie
Foundations report on education in Ver-
mont. Indeed, President Thomas en-
dorses the report as ga thorough, inn
partial, scientific study of the education
al system and practice of Vermont" He
says that the experts "have named the
first and fundamental steps of education
al reorganization and advance" and that
their report will be ga stimulative text
book of educational advance in Vermont
for many years"
He accepts further "the principle that,
the primary and supreme duty of the
state in educational matters is to its
elementary schools" and adds: "The col
lege must not be a competitor for re-
sources that are needed by the little
children of Vermont" He then argues
that college appropriations need not be
discontinued to enable the state to do
its duty by the common schools, and
calls attention to the fact that the in
come of the state from the savings
banks alone the past year has increased
half the amount now expended for high
err education. He believes that Vermont
will provide cheerfully all that is need
ed for wise and generous institution
of the constructive program recommend
ed by, the Foundation without the sac
rifce of all state connection with higher
education.
Vermont ought not to be the only
state in the Union to do nothing for
boys and girls who want to go beyond
the high school, Some form of scholar
ships should be maintained, preferably
assigned by competitive examination
with the winners free to choose between
the three Vermont colleges. When the
state is contemplating an educational
reorganization is not time to discon-
tinue its strongest department for the
training of high school teachers and rur
al superintendent. Reform must depend
upon the trained teacher, and Vermont
teachers should be trained in Vermont.
The essential and central feature of the
report is the proposed change from the
town to the state control of schools, or
"the immediate suzerainty of the state
over the public schools" as the report
expresses it. If such board of educa-
ton is organized, they can take care of
such matters as duplication and politi-
cal activity of the colleges. President
that is not reasonable and fair, and that
the present state appropriation to Mid
dlebury, being less than one seventy fifth
of the annual income of the state, should
be continued.

mineral Rods Declared Fakes.

Whether gold, silver and other prec-
ious and useful minerals may be found
in the ground by means of mineral rods
is question frequently asked of the
United States Geological Survey The
latest question of this sort came from
a correspondent in Vinemont, Ala, who
states that man from Birmingham has
one of these rods for locating minerals
that he claims to be employed by the
government and gets half of what he
finds. This expert mineral finders name
is stated to be Wise, which may or may
not have significance.
The geological surveys reply to this
correspondent is that while an ordinary
compass, or dip needle" will be attract
ed TO ores of iron, nickel, and cobalt
which are magnetic, it will be affected
by no other metals or minerals, and
that so-called mineral rods are fakes
Anyone claiming to operate a mineral
rod on behalf of the United States gov
eminent is an impostor and should be
let severely alone, or reported to the
police.

FOREST NOTES.


The tenth successive year without a
forest fire has Just been passed by the
Powell national forest in south central
Utah.
Yellow poplar, or tulip tree, the
largest broadleaf tree in America, has
been known to reach nearly 200 feet in
height and 10 feet in diameter.
Pennsylvania has about ~ acres of
timberland, one-eighth of which is
owned by the state. The total value of
the states timber is 1870 million dollars.
Mistletoe thrives on the western
coasts to AN extent not approached in
the east. In many places this parasitic
growth lis responsible, directly or in
directly, for considerable loss OF tim
Der.
Forest officers in Washington and
Oregon plan to discontinue the use OF
barbed wire in their forests. This will
affect their own pastures and public
drift fences. They say barbed wire has
no advantages over smooth Wire, that
it injuries stock, and that it is more
likely to be borne down by soft snow.
Stockmen of the Ochoco forest, in Ore
gon, recently constructed drift fences of
smooth wire, though with some misgiy-
ings; now they say they will never use
barbed wire again.
