GIRLS SCHOOLS IN JAPAN.

The Japanese government has done
little to promote the education Of girls
above the high school.
With the exception of the Women's
Higher Normal School at Toxic and
the corresponding one at Nara there
has been practically nothing done.
The higher normal schools in no sense
provide for general culture, Women
who attend these schools receive their
tuition free and are bound to teach
for five years after graduation. The
Women's University gives a three or
four years course above the high
school. The enrolment in the college
department is 450. There is a women's
private medical school in Toxic, with
an enrolment of 800. Last year this
school received government recogni-
ton as a special school.

THE SlLO PRIMER.

The Eagle has received a copy of
The Silo Primer" written by our fel.
low townsman, H. l.. Mcknight. 1t is
a very attractive booklet, and ssets
forth in clear, concise, terse state
ments the merits of the silo, and also
the essential details of successfully
operating the silo when erected. 1t is
PERHAPS the best silo guide book yet
offered the public. The beginner can
follow the directions laid down in this
work for making silage with perfect
assurance that his work will prove
profitable from the beginning.
AS indicating the field of usefulness
of this book, we learn that nearly
twenty thousand copies have been sold
although the work has been
out only about thirty days.
This book should be in the hands
of every farmer in Brazos County,
he intends to build a sifo this
season or not.

died in exile in 1921, there was prob
ably a wish buried deep in his Corsi-
can heart that the island which had
been the scene of his humiliation
might be wiped from the face of the
seas.
Whether or not such a curse was
ever cast upon the island, il is GER
tain that st. Helena is doomed. If not
to extinction, at least to become an
uninhabitable rock. With the advent
OF steam navigation the island ceased
to be a regular port of call, so that
its always scanty exports dwindled al
most TO the vanishing point; plaques
OF insects destroyed its vegetation;
rats, brought thither by foreign yes
sells, multiplied and overran its soil
until the government was compelled
to offer a bounty OF one penny for ev.
cry rodent captured, Then the English
garrison, which had been practically
the sole source of income to the in
habitants, was withdrawn and the
needs OF the natives became desperate.
Then, as If this series of misfor
tunes was not enough, the termite-
the curse of tropical and semi-tropical
ountries-invaded the island and
will, unless controlled. reduce the city
of jamestown to a pulp of sawdust.-

crop last year. Her total yield was
1864, 900 bushels. The 1913 yield OF
Texas was 163,2OO,OOO bushels, and
was the largest production in history.
Owing to the shortage of the South
American crop 1t is not likely that the
imports from that country will be
heavy during the next few months.
The Argentine corn crop natures six
months earlier than that of Texas and
export shipments from that country
to the United States will begin early
in June.
