FRUIT YIELD TO sE LIGHT.
Estimated the Crop Viii Only Be
About IS Per Cent.

Des Moines, June ls.-The Iowa fruit
crop will make Just So per cent of fun
yield this season, according to Wesley
Greene, secretary of the Iowa Horticul-
tural Society. Peaches have been the
hardest hit of any of the fruits and
will only run about per cent. while
the apple yield will probably be heavier
this wear than last Two-thirds of the
cherries have been destroyed, but
strawberries. blackberries and goose
berries will all make a good average
unless the season declines sharply. Cold
rains in May are largely blamed for the
present condition along with rainy
fail last year, which hit the cherry
trees.

policy Of the Senate Democrats as a
campaign issue. It is doubtful wheth-
er such an issue would arouse the peo-
pie to any considerable extent. Never
theiess, the Democrats are falling into
a trap of their own making when they
endorse clOture as a means of putting
quick end to debate in the Senate.
When the Republicans return to
power they will find the way made
easy for an immediate repeal of the
tariff and all other measures which
have been hampering business and de-
privins workingmen of employment. It
will not be possible then for the Demo-
Gratis 10 delay action by the use Of
methods which they used in years past,
when the Republicans we're charged
by the public with the task of undo
ing Democratic accomplishments.
Political history shows that when
/ the Republicans return TO power they
will retain il for a long time. The brief
authority which the Democrats enjoy
at the present time will be used
against them ineXorably for p much
longer time when they again become
the minority.

RURAL PUPILS AND TRANSFORMATIONS.

7 view of the movement in Delaware TO consolidate
i the rural school districts wherever II may be
found advantageous do the matter of the trans
portation of pupils living in the remote portions of
such consolidated districts becomes interesting ques-
ton We have received from the United States Bureau
OF Education an abstract of bulletin that very
question That bulletin was written by A. c. Monahan
an investigator for the bureau
The abstract shows that forty-three States
authorize the transportation of pupils TO public schools
az the expense Of school districts In certain States
transportation at public expense pormssive only. in
others obligatory Ohio for example requires trans
portation for children two miles or more from the
school while other States require transportation when
the distance is ono and ono-haf miles more. In
several of the states the school authorities may pay
parents or guardians fixed amoun per day for trans
poration while Maine Vermont, Minnesota. South
Dakota. and Oregon permit payment for room and
board for pupils in homes convenient 20 the schools
where the cost Of so doing exceed the cost OF
transportation. AS to the means OF transportation the
bulletin says.
sentiment seems to favor the school wagon where
properly managed yet while the wagon is the usual
form Of conveyance furnished children are trans
ported by steam railroads electric cars, automobiles
and even by gasoline launches
Competent drivers arc essential in any plan for
transportation according the bulletin. The charac-
ter OF the important that State legislation
in some instances for example Wisconsin, requires that
leach driver contracted with must be of excellent moral
character trustworthy and responsible. and must fur
nish a safe team with suitable conveyance
The kind Of the wagons used is regarded as so i'm
portan that many States purchase their own wagons
and hire only drivers and teams.
"The best wagons" declares the bulletin ARE those
where the driver sits inside with the children and
where there are glass sides instead of curtains" In
cold weather rugs and lap-robos arc used and some
times the wagons arc heated by means of oil stoves
The eest per pupil for transportation. as given by
the bulletin ranges from 10 to rs cents per day The
average expense for the school is about s25 pei

Dernberg's Campaign
(From tho Detroit Free PressJ

Dr. Bernhard Dernberg. special per-
sonal representative of Kaiser VIII
helm in the United States. is now on a
lecture tour of the country in the IN
terests of his master. He is telling his
audiences some wonderful things
about their sad condition. things they
would never suspected otherwise. For
instance, the doctor declares quite
seriously that in fighting Germany the
British are fighting the United states,
thereby disclosing an organic politi-
cal connection and community OF in

land which hitherto had been quite
unrcalHcd. and naturally causing
some speculation as to when we en-

alliance with the government in Ber.

to enlighten us.
Only less amusing is the doctors
assurance that America has been as
thoroughly isolated as Great Britain
as though il were in "the moon
