Education that we consolidate

cause of the fall down" that

was the unsatisfactory boat ser

causes greatly .dcpopulated our

makes it difficult to go through
the year on 20-mill levy. But
we will. At no time in the history
of the school has it required such
careful attention to the details of
the work as this year. Now that
we have the enrolment. the pat
rons of the school should cooper

attendance regular. By so doing
we will not only be helping the
child to get better education,
but also helping the school board
get sufficient funds to carry on
the school work. The school reve-

multiplying the number Of census
children of the state by $4,000 per
census child. The county school
fund is determined by multiply

Of the county by $1,000 per census

tricts Of the state and county ON
the basis of number of days Of

shrubbery that are already set
out
Now that start has been made
in the right direction in cutting
down the ferns and weeds and
raking off old rubbish may also
suggest something furtherH 1t is
this: That no flower or shrub be
allowed planted that spreads and
eventually will injurc the tomb
stones by over-shadowing and
blackening them.
Recently | visited a cemetery
not far from here, that is one mass
of daisies; thyme also completely
covered one grave, and in another
place some one had planted a
Scotch bloom, whose spreading
branches are reaching out and will
in time over-shadow and blacken
a tombstone near by.
| have an idea that some one,
from sentimental reasons, planted
a bunch of daisies on the grave of
some loved one, never thinking
what it would mean to the rest
of the cemetery in years to come.
The result is apparent to the
passer-by. The daisy has become
the noxious weed, disfguring the
whole last resting place of the
dead.
Would it not be wise for the
Island Cemetery Board to adopt
rules prohibiting the planting of
anything that will eventually mar,
instead of adorn, the Silent City
Of the Dead ELLEN Crawford.

MEXICO is U. S. OIL HOPE
IL Per Cent Of Potential Capacity
Now Being Produced.

Washington. = Mexico promises to
become the oil reservoir of the west
ern hemisphere, the department of
commerce declared in a review of the
petroleum industry. With increased
consumption in the United States like.
ly to exhaust producing fields here
within 20 or % years, Mexico, the
statement said, "offers the most en-
enlargement to the American oil in
dustry, both for present production
and geographical situation"
Exhaustion OF 40 per cent of the
producing fields of the United States
the departments review stated, has
caused Mexico to take second place
in oil production, although only about
IL per cent of the potential capacity
of Mexican wells is being produced
