In case decided by the supreme
court OF the State OF Washington. In
volving a claim for damages for in
juries sustained In an automobile ac-
eident. a. is decided that the amount
OF recovery for the damage TO the car
Is not necessarily limited TO the cost
incurred In repairing IL. The court
held that II the evidence shows that
there is a srixet In the particular r
locality for secondhand cars. tho
amount recoverable for damage TO the
car is the difference between Its value
In the local market before and after
the accident. Upon this basis. the
court found In the case in question
that although the repair bill was

the car as a result OF the damage
done to IL was $500. and a judgment
vast awarded the owner for this
amount.

Large mileage Is delivered by tres
despite the lack of attention from
motorists and the severe conditions
under which they are used. Tires are
exposed TO unusual road conditions,
under-infation and other abuses that
tend to decrease mileage. Proper

OF tire service can be shown than that

court of Oklahoma describes an in

under a new brand of the rebuilding

right OF the State OF Oklahoma to inn

only to take orders subject to the ap-

"Purebred Education" is that which
has been studied over long period
of time and found to be that which Is
best suited for the service to be per
formed. This work has been done
by men called teachers who make q
study Of the problems and require
ments of education. Many of these
men and women have spent their
whole life in trying to find out Just
what kind of an education should be
given to various classes of students
and just how best to present it. Our
colleges and universities are employ
ing people who are constantly try
ing to improve upon and build up our
knowledge of educational matters.
And yet, just as in the case of pure
bred livestock, we find communities
which are too backward or too in
different to grasp the opportunities
afforded them in education. They
are still sticking to the scrub. They
hire their teachers on the basis Of
chow little will you work for" not
show much do you know?" They
elect to their school boards men who
are primarily interested in keeping
the taxes down rather than in afford
ing their children a chance for The
best schooling possible. They believe
in the "Three Rs" only and very
little of that. Shop work, domestic
science, agriculture and health and
teaching are to some minds only
fanciful and silly dreams and should
not be included in the curriculum.
Experience is the best teacher"
There is no doubt of the truth of this
adage, but its truth is clouded by the
usual Interpretation. AS ordinarily
expressed, the experience referred to
is that which is personal only. Ac-
cording to this theory the best way
to learn about the explosive qualities
of dynamite is to actually use stick
in a careless manner. But it is just

PUREBRED EDUCATION
Prof. Dickinson Makes Comparison.

Just as in the business of farming
we find pure bred and scrub live
stock, so in the field of education WI
find that which is carefully thought
out and that which is hit or miss
mostly miss.
The term "purebred livestock" re-
fers to animals whose heritage has
been taken care of and looked after
from generation to generation. This
has been done for the most part by
men Of skill, training and fore
thought. These men have been in
terested in trying to produce the best
possible type for the purpose in mind.
The draft horse has not been develop
ed for speed but for the purpose of
pulling heavy loads at moderate
rate. The highest development of
this type has only been reached after
years Of patient effort.
And yet, even in this advanced
age" many men are still breeding
and using the light boned, shallow
chested, weekly muscled horse for
draft work. They are sticking to
the scrub. don't know why no
one knows why. It may be that the
age is not as advanced as we think;
that just common inertia delays
change; that the propaganda for the
new has not been properly managed.
There is a parallel between educa-
ton and farming. Education is as
old as agriculture. The two have adj
vanced step by step together. Che
teachers would say that advance in
education always preceded advance in
agriculture. The student of agricul-
ture might reverse the order, but it
does not matter. It is quite true,
however, that until within the last
half century the practice of farming
was much ahead of education fer

! as truly an experience to be told
what others have discovered about
dynamite-and muct less disastrous
The only difference is that it is the
experience of some one else rather
than of the individual. Human be-
ings differ from the lower animals
mainly in their ability to profit by
the experience Of others.
Education consists in nothing mors
than making the experiences Of the
race familiar to the student. In GER
tain cases for the sake Of memory
development, accuracy and habit for
nation, it is desirable that the stu
dent follow up or repeat this racial
experience or practice. But what
folly it would be to neglect and cast
aside all that has been learned in the
past through the experience of many
generations. Yet this is certainly
what is suggested by the average
man who insists that experience is
the best teacher This is particularly
pertinent in agricultural education.
The community which still adheres to
scrub education believes that that the
boy should gain his knowledge of
farming in the fields and barns alone,
or from more or less doubtful and
hazy information passed down from
father to son. He should not be given
an opportunity to take advantage of
the studies Of thousands of trained
men in hundreds of colleges and
schools. He should learn by expert
once-sad usually-that mouldy hay
will poison his cattle, that
his soil needs lime Could
these communities but see that
the loss in time, money and effort
due to non-unitization of the expert
ence of others would more than pay
for the cost of communicating this
knowledge, how quickly they would
discard the scrub for the purebred.
There is little excuse in the present
day for not giving the boys and girls
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1920-10-25

the advantage of the best in educa-
ton. It is a sad commentary when
it may be said that many an Ameri-
can farmer spend more money to
have purebred livestock on his farm
than he does to provide the same
kind Of an education for his children.
It is only through education of the
proper sort that the soil can be made
to product its maximum, that coun-
try life can be made comfortable and
enjoyable and finally that the farmer
will receive the proper returns for
capital invested and labor put forth.

A Glut in Wool

Buena Aires, June 24.-The ces-
sation of the demand for coarse
grades of wool for army uniforms
and the refusal Of average people,
in spite of the high cost of living, to
buy clothing made of the coarse
grades, has left Argentina with more
than 200, 100000 pounds. of almost
unsaleable wool on it's hands, accord
ing to local manufacturer of wool
en- cloth, interviewed by La Nacion.
This huge quantity will be increas-
ed during the shearing season in July
and August. AS the production OF
wool in this country is growing year
by year, the problem of selling the
coarser grades is considered very ser
ious. One reason for the situation
is that formerly Argentine sheep
breeders had thought more OF
the meat than the wool, with the re-
suit that their stock became mixed
and the consequent wool coarse and
not uniform.
