POTATOES

Today bought peck of spuds, my hungry form
to fill l had to soak my Sunday Guds ere l could
pay the bill. 1 paid as much to buy peck as once
bushel brought; and so wept and cried "By Heck"
and drank wilewaught. drank horn of Adams
ale, my spirit to revive; for how one dig up the
kae, and keep his pep alive? They say we run to
luxuries, when we a-shoppng go; for costly meats,
imported cheese, our hard earned bucks we blow.
Eat simple fare" the wise say, "cut out the
rich and fine, and you may save some coin each day,
and put the same in brine" The wise men sagely
chew their cuds and hand logic pure but is there
simpler fare than spuds the standby of the poor?
IT'S not the farmer makes them dear; the grocers
not to blame some fat and heartess profiteer is at
his beastly game. Somewhere there is middleman
whose rake-off is crime; the buyer is the alsoran
who gets stung every time. Somewhere there is
sycamore, somewhere hempen rope; these crazy
times will soon be oer and sense will come, hope.

Chris.ian Scicncc Monitor.
: Salt Lake City, .Utah.-In the
course of talk on Country Schools
That Are Making Good,"' delivered
by r. r Crawford before the rural
section of the National Education a.
sociation at It's annual convention =
this city, he spoke as follows on
rural school conditions in the safe; Of
Minnesota:
''In Minnesota, the oac factc" that
has perhaps ove:shadowcd every
thing else in .: omotirg co";:2l'Hl-
ton has been the c::St!lc1t system
Of state aid. Minnesota can give
practically every o.e of iss consol-
dated schools $4,000 to $4,000 state
aid evcry year and rot miss it from
its school fund. It's system Of max
ing schools live up, TO requirements
in every particular, from approving
in detail the plans and requiring all
consolidated schools to tc modern to
the hot lunch which must be served
every noon, issperhap5 rrc1ualcd IN
the United States.
"Add to thecc factors which pro-
mote consolidation 4 few live advo-
Gates in every state, and You have q
winning combination: For instance,
over in the neighbc-ing state of Col
.orado, c. 6. Sargent of the State
Agricultural college has been talking
consolidation for years. The same is
true of Iowa, with Macy Campbell
of the teachers college and Mr.. Dlci:
and Mr.. McClerahan cf the state de-
partment. l have mentioned thc5c
few things TO show the reason Why
certain states have been able to make
such great records in consolidation.
III practically every case the state
laws have not Only made consolld&-
tion easy, but have also done some
thing definite to promote it.
at undoubtedly is true tha. most
teachers avoid The country school,
and perhaps quite rightly, for Mr.
Neal of the United States bureau OF
education recently compiled figures
that show that the average salary ot
rural school teachers is approx
mately $634, this including both men
and women. But it would seem that
low salaries arc not the only rca-
son why the rural schools do not
succeed better. The fact is that the
old-time rural school is a rundown
institution and poor salaries have
simply gone along with Door hu!ld-
ings and poor equipment
"I,ight here. / would like 70 say
something about school buildings.

cf suggestive plans. 1t is true that
we have numerous plaHS Of onc-room
! schcols, quite fortunately, but for the
large buildings, such plans are cohl-
pa1ativcly few. The STATE of Min
ncscta is doing a good work alorg
this lire ard sends out to the va
r;ous school boards in the state sug-
gest:vc plans of buildings. The
trouble is that most architects who
build the schools in cur small towns
have spent their entire lives work
ing with business blocks ard houses
ard have the idea that every school
should follow the cid box style. Our
more famous architects usually can
not take the time fer small jobs of
thi1 sort, ard the school beard must
take what it se.s. Some really great
schools in the United States show
w.hat c,;n be done il this regard.
