c. {. VASALY HURT
TAXI BUNS INTO AUTOMOBILE,
THREE PINNED UNDER CAR
VASALY MOST INJURED.

st. Paul Daily News, Nov. B.:
Charles E. Vasaly, chairman, state
board Of control; Mrs. Vasaly, Frank
Neibel, chairman, Ramsey County Boy
Scout organization, and Mrs. Nobel,
narrowly escaped death when an auto
mobile in which they were driving was
struck by taxicab shortly after mid
nigh Sunday morning.
All but Mrs. Vasaly were pinned I'M
der the automobile.
The automobile, driven by Mr.. Mel
bel, was coming along Lexington aven-
ue, from Saltwater at the rate Of II
miles an hour. The taxicab, driven by
G. R. Sandine, was travelling along
University avenue, at fast clip, 1t is
said. :.
The taxicab struck Mr.. Neibel's car
in the center, turning both machines
over. The automobiles were almost
demolished.
Mr.. Vasaly, who suffered the most
severe injuries, was taken to Cobb hos
pital, but was later taken home. His
right hip was badly wrenched, and he
received bad bruises about the head.
The others, including the taxicab
driver. were severely bruised.
The manner In which tho accident
occurred is told as follows: AS we
reached Lexington and University, Mr..
Neibel was driving IL miles per hour.
A yellow taxicab was coming up Uni
versity. Mr.. Neibel saw it and as we
had tho right of way he thought it
would naturally 20 behind. Instead it
rushed in ahead Of US, going over 80
miles an hour, according to witnesses.
The back part of the taxi caught our
fender, spun it around twice and we
landed across the street completely
turned upside down, the result being as
stated in the above article.
In telephone conversation with Mrs.
Vasaiy, she stated that Mr.. Vasaly was
still confined to his bed and would like
ly be for some time, and although sui
fering great pain, the attending physi-
clan stated that he did not think Mr..
Vasaly was injured internally.

detached district school Is more fan cied than real. We have 13 different rural schools. Some have six grades. others five, four. three and two. un- der one teacher. It Is plainly impos- sible. under such conditions. to de- mand absolute uniformity in the amqnt of work to be accomplished What is proposed is this: to require from all schools fixed minimum. and to allow and urge all to do as much more as possible. This will give certain amount of uniformity and \ proper fiexibility.
 To sum up, the situation k this. We have repudiated the state system. hence ours is not approved Every time q town rejects the state system and establishes it's own 1t reduces the power of the State Secretary and the number of his satellites. Hence the confusion and running about on Mt. Olympus. In the words of the poli- tician, the reports are frame up" to get even with the Town of Thomp- son for having the temerity to run it's own schools as 1t sees fit and as it has legal right to do. This last report is gratu;tous insult to the town.
 If necessary, an appeal to the State Board will bring to close Act II.
 Respectfully yours.

 Thompson and Principal of Tour tellotte Memorial High School.

The keeping of a plan book such as needless burden to the teacher and d useless repetition, when done as di- rected, of Normal framing. To the su- perintendent it was valucless because no teacher can accurately anticipate the trend of questions and discussions of wide awake pupils, and no superin- tendent can spare the time to read and criticize all the questions asked by IS teachers in the course of a months teaching. An hour of actual class room supervision is worth doz. en spent in reading plans which may or may not have been carried out.
 Uniformity Is Impossible
 The usual method of providing teacher opportunities for further training has been followed. Teach CTS meetings, individual help, con ventions. and visiting days are the regular means. If some further in- centive could be given, such as de- finite increase for specified time spent in attendance at some recog- nized, reputable summer school, there would be little left undone to promote the efficiency f our teaching force, This must seem, l admit, a rather in adequate provision compared to the method furnished by the fool proof system with it's ipterminable memor. izing and red tape.

1t is now pretty definitely under

League of Nations will be promptly
ratified by the Senate of the United
States. Somebody suggested that.
whereas, next year was Presidential
year, and whereas, the "Wilson"
treaty and League of Nations is about
to become a fact and reality and
whereas, Mr.. Wilson is likely to he
candidate again, therefore be it
resolved that it may not be wise. but
very impolitic, to oppose said docu-
inent. What is likely to happen?

ABOUT PLANTING CORN.

Every farmer should know. and
presumably does know, if he is an oh
servant and systematic man, Just
about what yield to expect from his
field, under favorable conditions of
season, cultivation, etc. The yield
will depend primarily upon the soil,
but largely, too, upon the kind of
corn planted, and this will Indicate
just how far apart the rows and dis
lance between stalks in the rows.
Say, for example, from Boone Coun-
ty, Hickory King, Reid's Yellow
Dent, a 70-bushel crop may be ex-
pected, the rows should be four feet
apart, and the stalks foot, 2 inches
in the row. Stalks one foot apart i'm
these 4-foot rows, should give so
bushels to the acre. A 5O-bushel
crop, stalks should stand one foot.
seven inches, that is, on land where
not more than so bushels can be
counted no. The thinner the land the
farther apart in the row.
On 25-an-acrc land, the rows fOu.
feet apart, the corn should stand 3
feet, about, in the row.
The lower the yield counted ON the
further apart, etc.
A 4-foot row is too wide except for
very thin land.
On the TO- or S0-bushel land. per
acre, with rows three feet 8 inches
apart, the corn should stand, for the
7O-bushel yield, l foot and Be inches,
the SO-bushel yield, foot inch.
Counting about one-half pound of
corn to every stalk, and the number
of stalks, it is not difficult to csti-
mate, with reasonable eaxactncss. the
yield per acre. Some stalks will Weld
more, some less than half pound,
and quite Il largenumber none ut all.
Not less than ten per cent, some put
1t higher, Of all the stalks, are bar
rem.
1t may be considered tedious. if
not useless, calculation suggested
here, but it is at least interesting.
Farmers are so in the habit of "gues-
sing at it" (and missing Il mile), that
they will not take time and pains to
figure out Just how much their acres
are producing.g

The Review suggests home adver-
Using campaign, quoting prices and
showing the people what they have
to sell and the pcice--not general
indefinite statement, but, like the dis
play ads. in the city dailies-give
pictures, prices, and descriptions. The
mail order houses do their great bus
mess solely through advertising, at
enormous cost, and sell for cash. The
reason in many instances that people
order from abroad is that they do
not know that the home merchant
carries the article wanted, nor the
price, if he carry it. The news
papers may cry out and scream
against the invasion of the mail or
der houses, but until the merchants
themselves take the proper steps the
howls of the newspapers will amount
to nothing, except to butt their brains
out against brick wall. The mer
chants in the small towns, by getting
together, and pulling together, can
keep hundreds OF thousands of dol
lars ut home il they care to do so, and
are willing to take mail order prof
its, which flow out constantly thru
the post offices to the mail order
houses.
Such an effort is worth trial, at
least.

of the Peace conference AT Versailles
have been of less Unrest to most Of
us than the day-by-day accounts of
the greatest battles ever fought, and

wondered why the delegates to that

what they had to do, quit talking
and go home, ard let the activities of

these. They have worked out plan

which may or may not prevent flu
