best citizens are selected by the en' tire municipality to control the schools, and the whole city contributes to their support.
 Under the county system there would be an average of five or six school off cials. Surely it would be easier to select a school board of this limited number who would have and would manifest an interest in popular education, than it would be to secure three times ss many superior men as there are schools. And, too, it is equally ob. vious that since this board would be elected by the whole municipality, the electors would hold them to a strict accountability for the success, ful administration of other county af. fairs.
 This matter of county unit is ln- extricably tied up with the matter of a better system of taxation, which will be the topic of the next article in this series. Every county in Arkan. sas presents examples of adjoining school districts, one of which with very low taxation can raise more money for school purposes than it can stand, while the other by taxing itseit the legal limit cannot raise enough to maintain a school fit to send the children of the community to. For instance, in Monroe County, District No. has six times the assessed vafu. ation of District No. 26, adjoining it although it has only two more white pupils, and can raise annually for school purposes $1,76S.21, while the latter district can raise a maximum of s30090. District No. 38, that ad. joins No 26 has a valuation of only S17,000, and so can raise a maximum of only $119.31. Every principal Of democracy urges that every child ia Monroe Couaty-and every other eoun- ty of our state-have equal opportuni- ties for a fair education with every other child. How unfortunate indtNd are those children of such districts No. 39 in Monroe County compared with those of District No. 1. until we have a county unit for their benefit

East and South Arkansas; third, up land and sandy soils of East and South Arkansas. In the north and northwest section orchard grass is the surest grass and should generally De the basis of. permanent pasture or meadow. Orchard grass is superior to timothy because it is adapted to larger variety of soils, is not so hard on soil, furnishes superior pasture and more nutritious hay, and rip, ems at the same time as red clover For pasture, along with the orchard grass, Kentucky blue grass should be seeded on soils that are rich in lime, and red top on soils that are short in lime. Red and white clover should also be put into the mixture. For a meadow orchard grass and red clover make a good mixture. On the bottom soils of the south and south east portions of the state, Bermuda should usually be made the basis of a permanent pasture or meadow. The disadvantage of Bermuda not being green for pasture during winter can be remedied by putting bur clover oa the sod or by having second pasture.
 The following characteristics and adautations should be noted m regard 10 the grasses. Orchard grass and Kentucky grass grow extra well in the shade, while Bermuda will be killed out with excessive shade. Ken lucky blue grass does well only on the lime soils in the cooler part ol the state; m other sections the hot dry weather of summer kills it. Or chard grass Is not likely to be sue cessful on a sandy soil, but it Is es pecially adapted to the clay hills Some other grass or clover should al ways be sown with orchard grass be cause of it's habit of growing in dense cIumps instead of making sod, es Decially if thin stand is secured Tall meadow oat, feseue. Englisl blue, and other grasses have promise of being valuable under certain con ditions. In all sections of the state on soils that are medium 10 fertile and that are well drained
 It should be accepted IS funda mental principle that successful agri culture in Arkansas must be based or the growing or more livestock ei every farm and that success wltl livestock will depend very much oi } permanent pastures. Therefore great campaign should be undertaken this year for more clovers an

 Grasses are a vital factor In sue cessful and permanent agriculture. The washing and teaching, which is inpoyerishing the soils of thousands of farms would be largely stopped if the cotton, corn, and other clean cul, tiyated crops were exchanged for grasses. The roots of this class of plants hold the soil, hll it up with nu- mus and have a renovating effect upon Il in general. The perennial pas lures and meadows furnish source of cheap feed because breaking and seeding is not done every year Land that cannot be cultivated economical ly because of the rocks, stumps. and rough nature. will usually pay hand some profit if put into pasture.
 Grasses may be divided into two classes; perennial or those which live for three or more years such as Der muda. orchard grass. red top, and Kentucky blue grass: and annuals or those which live for only one year as Sudan grass Bermuda grows only during the warm season, while or ehard grass, Kentucky blue grass and some others stay green a large portion of the winter Red top is especially adapted to wet soils, while Bermuda grows on a drier soil, so that one can select suitable grasses for almost every soil and condition.
 Tn making pasture and meadow rec concentrations Arkansas must be di vided into at least three different sec tions, according to soils and climate as follows: First, North and North east Arkansas; second bottom soils of

III. ADVANTAGES OF A COUNTY
 UNlT.s

By J. R. Jewell, Dean School of Eda-
 cation University of Arkansas.
 The most important reform needed in our Arkansas school system is the abolition of the district as the unit of school government and the substitu- ton therefor of the county. The school district is an artificial unit, estao' lished for single and special pur- pose, and like nothing else under heaven; consequently our schools are governmental outcasts. bearing no re lation to the county government which, for every other function, is the only recognized unit. It is in such a school system alone that one sees
