TUE OLD SCHOOL SLATE AGAIN ?
of Paper May Bring it Buck
Into Public Favor.
(BrOoklyn' Eagle.)

\D'ochiSh IIoSlS.J
The story that in the shortage Of
paper there is hope for the old school
slate seems too good to be true. Yet
it is. perhaps true that the board Of
superintendents has discussed this
possibility, and it certainly is true
that supplying the schools with paper
is exceedingly difficult.
Middle-aged men who never
thought of school without slate for
doing sums on were shocked at the
waste when Educators" brought
about the abolition of the slate. Pa
per is used up fast, fast enough to
suit any paper trust on earth. The
slate would go on forever If you
didn't take a notion to fling it at.
teachers head. and unhappily break
1t on her desk instead.
Educators" said the slate was
noisy, dirty, demoralizing. They inti-
mated that slate and discipline were
compatible If you had plenty of cor
poral punishment, and not otherwise.
They worried when Jennie Jones
drew caricature picture and all who
could see giggled, and a swift stroke
of the sleeve made Jennie's conviction
impossible. AS matter Of fact, the
slate required a real teacher to deal
w'4'l It's possibilities, and real tcacu.
ers are scarce.
For ourselves, we take the midjIp-
age or medieval view. The use Of
paper always has Denn waste. The
slate was lust as good except for Che
paper manufacturers. The litter in
Volved in using paper is worse than
the uncleaned slate, more trouble for
some one to put things right. And
when it comes to rival trust interests
the slate quarres are to be consider
cd. They have been hard hit in seve-
raj different ways Of late years. Pat
ent roofing has almost banished slate
roofs. Artificial stone has nearly
wiped out the sale OF sidewalk pav-
ing. The educators" have destroyed
in the cities the demand for school
states. Hence the quarries up Gran
vile way and elsewhere are in a state
OF depression. Revival Of the old
school slate will help them. The
owners Of these quarrics are as good
Americans as the owners OF the paper
combinations, though they have not
been quite SO cleverly commended to
the attention of the educators"

PINK BOIL WORM IS COMING.
Government Issues Warning-Said to
BE More Disastrous Than WccyiI.

Washington, Nov 1O.-The pink
boil worm, most destructive cotton
pest known, has appeared for the first
time in North America. The Depart
mcnt Of Agriculture announces that
the worms have been discovered in
Northern Mexico, where their pres
encc. the department says ia an OFF,
cial announcement, constitutes one
OF the greatest mcnaccs which has
come to the American industry in her
history Importation from Mexico
OF cotton seed. cotton seed hulls and
seed cotton is prohibited under an
order just issues.
Officials Of the department were
unable to explain how the pink boil
worm happened to be imported to
North America. 1t is presumed, how
ever, that the pest came in seed i'm
ported to Mexico from abroad.
Discovery OF the worm was an
nounced in the following statement:
'The pink boil worm, the most de-
structive Of known pests of cotton,
has been discovered in the Laguna
district, Coahuila. Mexico, within
100 miles OF the Texas border.
Amendments to quarantine orders
and regulations, effective Immediate
~, have been promulgated by the Sec
retary Of Agriculture, prohibiting
the importation into the United
States Of cotton seed, cotton seed
hulls and seed cotton from the terri
tory in Mexico which is infected.
''The pink boil worm has not been
known to exist on the North Ameri-
can continent heretofore. The pest
is prevalent in practically all other
cotton-producing regions Of the
world, and in all sections where it
has become established has caused
widespread destruction. Its estab-
lishment in Northern Mexico consti-
tutes one of the greatest menaces
which has come to the American cot
ton growing industry in It's history.
Every possible precaution will be
taken to prevent the worms from get
ting across the border. All cotton in
terests are warned of the danger
which threatens the industry and are
urged to give the utmost assistance
to the Federal authorities in prevent
Ing any movement in violation of
these rules governing movement of
cotton seed, cotton seed hulls, seed
cotton or cotton lint from Mexico
into the United States"
