instruction in agriculture has been increasingly
progressive
For instance an analysis of the soil of the
Island showed lack of potash. while another
anaysls showed that the seaweed which is cast
upon the beach In large quantities contained that
very element III substantial degree. From that
time 1t became part of the regular work of
the farm to gather the seaweed and the driftwood
and to dry and burn IT, and to put the ashes con-
tanning the potash back into the soil.
Both industry and recreation are highly devel.
oped The daily program is almost strenuous
compared with the life OF the boy of similar age
elsewhere.
Discipline is a marked characteristic. yet it is
kindly and attractive. with large rewards for the
faithful. well-intentioned boy. and a quick and
certain retribution for the boy otherwise The
boy makes his own place there. he will In
later life in the larger world
The daily routine is follows: Five a u
boys doing duty mixers, bakers and cooks
rise; 5:45. reveille; 6: 80 breakfast; to s:45
classes in manual training and trades: to HE'S,
morning session of school; IL 30 dinner; l2 m
to p. ma play: l. classes in manual training
and trades: 2:30 to 5. afternoon session of school:
h;So, supper; 6 to Z, play; 7;15, chaper and taps
On Sunday there is a general relaxation In.
stead of reveille at 5:i5 in the morning the
buse sounds half an hour later, and instead OF
the peremptory call to rise hymn is played
during which the boys may lie abed
A session of Sunday school is held between
classes are assisted by theological student who
comes every week for the purpose.
On Sunday there is also the largest distribution
of library books. although they are available
every day In the week.
church service is held at 3, conducted usual.
ly by visiting clergyman. The service is un.
denomnational. and representatives of various
creeds participate.
In the evening at 7:15 comes the chapel serv.
Ice. which is one OF the notable events of the
week. 1t is always conducted by the superintend.
ent, and consints of considerable singing. with
Bible reading prayer.
At this servits all the announcements of the
week In the va. of entertainments. outings and
celebrations are made. The purpose is to make
the occasion one OF the happiest of the week,
and In this direction 1t is eminently successful
Everybody on the island attends
But Monday night different kind of meeting
fs held. and is purposely made distinct This is
also conducted by the superintendent and 1t is

ana agent or attorney for the COun-
Gil for New England. an early English corpora
ton From this he obtained a patent of land
signed November 16 1922. including 5000 acres
and one island in New England
In 1926 he moved to Thompson's island with his
wife, infant son and servants. and built his log
house on the east shore of the island Its ruins
were discovered few years ago and the site Is
marked by stone inscribed: site of David
Thompson Cabin. First House In Boston Harbor
1926"
After Thompson's death and the removal of his
family the possession of the island became a
subject of litigation. 1t had been included in the
Massachusetts bay colony patent of 1927 and in
1884 was granted for the support of free school
to the inhabitants of the town OF Dorchester by
which it was rented out as pasture.
The island. attractive to its first white owner
because of its harbor, has since then been so
beautifed with groves and rows of trees and
orchards that it is probably not exceed in this
respect by any island of equal size along the At.
lantic coast
For three-quarters of century the work of
development and beautifyng has been going on.
Spruce and other fir trees. oaks, ems, chestnut.
linden acacia and elm trees abound The orchard
contains apple. pear. cherry, plum and qunce
trees.
More than twenty years ago Mr. Bradley or.
ganized the Cottage Row government This is
student municipality. but probably the most real
istic organization of its kind. 1t includes not
only political government but the ownership of
property and all that that implies
Cottage Row consists of dozen cottages of
various sizes built by the boys and each regis
tered with the plot of land in registry of deeds
There is city hall, where the city council
meets at stated intervals, and where questions OF
student control are discussed well the af-
fairs of the city property
The government consists of Judge. mayor.
three share-hodng propertyholding aldermen.
and two non-shareholding aldermen. a treasurer
and assessor.
The mayor appoints chief OF police a lieu
tenant, sergeant and four patrolmen a clerk
librarian, street commissioner and janitor Each
has his specified duties to perform. Thus nearly
onefifth of the boys at the school have a direct
interest in the management of the municipal gov
ernment.
Since the school has been on Thompsons is
land there have been but four superintendents
Charles II Bradley became superintendent in
March, 1888, completing 26 years of service the
present month. Under his direction the school
has made wonderful progress, and its reputation
has spread all over the country

CAN FISH IN WATERS STOCKED
BY STATE

Brainerd Dispatch: There has lately
been published notice in the Dis
patch warning fishermen to keep off
Pillager creek near Pillager and pro-
hibiting the fishing for brook trout
this season. I. U. White, acting for
himself and may others, wrote to the
game commission in regard to the
matter to see if the persons signing
such notice to the public, had the right
to prohibit fishing and this is the re-
ply received:
"Yours of the 18th, enclosing clip
ping from the Brainerd Daily Dis
patch received. For all streams that
have been stocked by the commission
the applicant has to sign the state
ment that it is public water, and open
at all times for public fishing. The
Game and Fish Commission does not
furnish any trout fry Of any kind for
private waters.
"Of course any man has the right
to prohibit people from going over his
land, but I do not think he would
have the right to stop person from
going up a stream, where it ran
through his land.'

ORCHARD AND GARDEN NOTE

ORCHARD AND GARDEN NOTES
Feed and shelter the birds that will
soon be migrating north. They have
especially hard times in our early
spring snow storms.
Early sweet peas may be sown in
berry boxes or pots and transplanted
outdoors as soon as the weather is,
settled and the soil workable.
Berries of highbush cranberry, bar
berry, mountain ash, cotoneaster, and
seed pods of Japanese lilac still add
interest to the shrubbery paintings.
Cuttings of willow, dogwood, grape,
etc., may now be ready to plant as
soon as the weather is warm and
settled. =.
It is safest to. plant all kinds Of
nursery stock in the spring. It will
soon be time to do this work. Better
order it now SO as to get it in good
season. +
If snow has drifted over currants
and small shrubs, forming q crust,
scatter cinders or ashes over them.
These will melt the snow irregular1y
and the bushes will not be smothered.
A few boxes fitted up for bird nests
or houses and placed in trees where
cats cannot get at them often help to
keep very desirable feathered neigh
bors in the neighborhood. Now is the
time to put these up.-LeRoy Cady,
Associate Horticulturist, University
Farm, St. Paul.
