G. H. Adams in Kansas City.

A recipe which never fails to put on
a heavy gain in weight on cattle while
on feed is advanced by G. H. Adams of
Audrain county, an extensive cattle
feeder, who buys his feeders on the
Kansas City market. Mr.. Adams at
once becomes well acquainted with
his steers when he puts them on feed,
and in this way they become gentle
and contented. He has a curry comb
which he uses on them. When he scat
tiers the corn in troughs where they
are fed, he sprinkles over it sugar.
This creates a thirst, and his cattle
drink a great deal of water.-Kansss

COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES
BY ". CLYDE N
County School Supt.

At last the papers of the rural
graduates have been looked owe and
reports made to the teachers. One
hundred and twenty-five wrote from
one to fourteen papers, making a
stack nearly two feet high. | think
the pupils did as well as could be ex-
pected of them. But the results clear
ly showed to me that February is too
early for them to take the examina-
tons. 1t is out Of the question to ex-
pect a child to complete in six months
what a normal child does well to ac-
eomplish in eight. If the district
won't furnish its children an eight
months school then it will be necessary
for them to spend two or three more
years in finishing their work. In the
meantime, they become discouraged.
disheartened, lose interest and drop
out. | said If a district won't furnish
an eight months school. For our
state now will help any rural district
so that it is possible to have an eight
months school and pay a first grade"
teacher as much as $50 per month.
II the the districts valuation is less
than $4,000, and the district will vote
So cents on the hundred dollars yalua-
ton for school purposes, and this re-
quires but a majority vote, then the
state will aid the district to the ex-
tent Of 5000 each year, that it may
have an eight months school. If its
valuation is owe $4,000, a levy of So
cents will run an eight months school.
The towns Of Audrain county think
enough of their children to levy a dol
lar on the hundred and give them
eight Or nine months of school. Last
year the average levy for the rural
district was 81 cents, and the average
length of school term was seven
months I! Twenty-Five rural districts
had a levy of so cents, 6 had S., 6 had
go and ten had 65l What will o do
for your children?
The Culver Township Teachers
Meeting was a great success. There
were about so teachers present, in
spite of a number being kept away
by the unfavorable and busy farm
work. Miss Addie Root of Columbia,
the organizer of Girls Club Work for
Missouri was present and explained
the club work projects for the summer.
Several Corn Clubs have been organ
lied by the boys, and | am sure that
the girls will not let the boys get
ahead of the. Only a few of those
on duty were not present and the pro-
gram was carried out with these few
exceptions. However, we found
plenty for the short time we had. I
glad to hear the very favorable
reports concerning the new text books.
1t seems that they are giving com
plete satisfaction, except the lack Of
answers, which is no fault or criti-
cism of the books. A very interesting
paper was Miss F1ossie Parker's on
School Improvement. She told me
how she had aroused her board and
patrons to an interest in a more at
tractive, clean and sanitary school
home with first class equipment. They
ave met every requirement for ap- ]
Mexico weekly ledger., 1916-04-06

prevail except that of clean and sani-
tray out-buildings. 'srhe Reorgani
zation of Our Rural Schools" by W.
S. LeweIlen, and 'The Reorganiga-
ton Of Our Graded Schools, by Miss
Georgia Gooch, also deserve special
mention.
The sentiment of the meeting was
progressive-a desire for something
higher, nobler and better. A feeling
that nothing is too good for the coun-
try boys and girls.
We owe the people Of Vandalia our
sincere thanks for many favors and
kindnesses shown.
