VISITING THE NoRMALs
State superintendent Says that Large
Number of Unframed Teachers
should be Displaced by the
Trained Graduates OF
the State Normals.

From the capital city comes the re-
port that State superintendent r. Il.
Wilson has visited fourteen of the
normal training schools and will con-
tinue to devote his entire time to
these personal inspections until all
of them have been visited. In com
menting on the results OF these vis-
It's, Mr.. Wilson says: "In every case
/ find the normal training schools the
strongest and most interesting class
in the school. This confirms what
have often said, that pupils should
enter high fchool with a definite aim
in view. and opportunities should be
given them to work for a purpose.
The pupils In the normal training
classes have for their object prepar-
alton to be teachers, and hence we
find them the most interested class
In the school
The records show" continued Mr..
Wilson, "that the schools for the
State employ 1900 unframed teach
ers each year. The normal training
high schools will prtpare 500 trained
teachers this year. which will be
about one-fourth of the number re-
duired and It Is my ambition TO have
the approved high schools and ethe
State normals supply all of the
teachers befor etwo more years, and
this will eliminate tn enecessity OF
the Oklahoma schools having any un.
trained teachers"

size and shape OF Eggs.
Much has been said about the J
high records mare by hens in the va
rious egg-laying contests, as well as
records made In the establishments
Of poultry breeders, says G. T. Pat
tcrson. of the Missouri Experiment
station Further he says that, the
number Of eggs produced is not all
that should be considered. for an egg
should be OF good size and good
shape, and be covered with a sound,
smooth she'll
II Is fortunate for the poultry in
dustry that the eggs are so near all
the same size. Those Of the different
breeds in the national contest at
Mountain Grove, Mo-, varied in their
weight from 2.03 to 2.29 ounces, and
the hens themselves averaged in
weight from 3.12 to 6.S6 pounds, and
strange as Il may seem, those whose
eggs averaged 2.03 ounces were from
hens whose weights averaged SIS
pounds, while the ones whose eggs
averaged 2.29 ounces averaged only
3.40 pounds each. In fact, IL is al
ways to be found that the size of the
hen has little or no influence on the
size OF the egg. A four-pound hen
will lay an egg the same size as one
weighing eight pounds.
After studying the poultry busi-
ness from every angle, one recognize
es that the size and shape of the egg
is the one thing all breeders can
l,.-orlr for cfv,oa a fe fha ov,Ix, th4ug
in common with all breeds and varie-
ties Of poultry.
In poultry shows the breeders OF
various breeds and varieties cannot
lenter a free-for-all competition on
size, shape, color, comb, ear-lobes,
Ishanks, OF any other characteristic,
. far they are not the same with differ
ent breeds, but the size and shape Of
all eggs should be hte same, there
/ fore, this is one Of the most import
amt points to be considered in breed
ing the stock.
An, ideal egg should be oblong ov-
J al, slightly tapering from one end to
: the other, and should weigh 1-S
, ounces, or 26 ounces to the dozen.
Egg markets require them to weigh
at least "a ounces TO the Dozen Eggs
J Iof this size and shape are the cor
rect size to fill the standard egg-case
J filler, and if inoculated will give bet
ter results than where various sizes
and shapes are incubated together
The old idea that round eggs would
9 hatch pullets and the long eggs hatch
|, Icockerels is incorrect. Nothing car
be told from the size and shape of an
egg whether it is fertile or infertile
or whether il would hatch a cockere
or pullet, but the shape of an egl
is a characteristic which is thans
mitted to the offspring.
