THE FARM HANDS WAGE.

lSioux City Journall
Laborers In the city believing from

ginning to look upon them as the cause

grasp the important fact that the
wages paid the farm hand are all prof

concerned. The city laborer receiving
81 a day Is able to earn. II he works
every day. $3.50 per month. II his
room and board are correctly estin,at-
ed he viii save s7s per month. These
figures are only Illustrative, except
when they are cited TO show the cost
or living In the city. In such instances
they will be found below rather than
above. the real expenses.
The farmer is not getting cheap Ia

cause 1t costs him as much TO secure
the services OF a man for a month as

JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL SYSTEM
Cedar Rapids Republican,
AS to the merits of the Intermediate
schools the testimony Is of the best
Kind. They are recognized IS the prop
er things in education now. They in
clude the seventh, eighth and ninth
srRdes, relieving both the top and the
bottom OF the system from congestion,
but best Of all they surround the boys
and girls in those school years with
influences that are desirable, II is
now conceded that it Is better TO take
the seventh and eighth grades out of
their primary surroundings. When
they are combined with the ninth
grade they form a homogeneous
school population. and the progress IS
multiplied thereby, 1t makes their
school time of more Consequence. And
adding the ninth grade means that
many who now do not enter the htsh
schools will be encouraged TO finish
at least the intermediate schools,
which means year OF education
added.

ty- The main crop in the past has been wheat, and much of the land has raised so many successive crops that the yield has been considerably de- creased and the dairy industry is be- ing promoted to rebuild the soil. The chamber of commerce is behind this movement and has shipped in 15O heads of Holstein heifers. County Agent Willis, for the farm bureau, has helped in selecting and distributing these animals and is urging more men to take up dairying.
 The hard surfaced roads petitioned for are to be eighteen feet wide, and the estimatd cost is S25,OO0 a mile. The benefit district is two miles wide, and the average cost to the land holders will be $2.60 an acre. They will have twenty years in which to pay the tax, which will cut the amount each year to thirteen cents an acre.
