Views On School Laws.

In communication to the
Cnur d'Alene Press during Amerl-
can Education week, County
Superintendent R. c. Egbers dis
cussed certain school problems, IN
part as follows:
First-Until five years ago rural
districts with very small NUMBER
of school children were given some
advantage in the apportionment el
school funds. This provision was
very reasonable and just as the
cost of maintaining a one teacher
school is about the same whethel
there be IS many as thirty children
or as few as ten. Hence there is
no good reason why district with
thirty children should draw two or
three times as much public money
as another district with only ten.
In 1915, the legislature fixed the
,n;n;mum census of school districts
at 2s children for the purpose Oh
apportioning the school money as

For some unknown reason the
Legislature in 1917 reduced thi.
minimum apportionment census tc
IS children and it has remained al
that figure ever since. This mini
mum should be raised to IS as il
was, and a maximum of about IS
fixed for one teacher schools.
Second The last Legislature
empowered high schools to charge
students from outside districts
actual per capita cost as tuition.
AS shown by list sent out by the
department of education at Boise,
these costs are figured at 81 to $50
per month per pupil, according to
the high school district. Yet under
former statute authorizing high
schools to charge So per month
per pupil, every high school was
giving the greatest encouragement
possible for these outside students
10 attend. 1t may be granted that
81 per month is insufficient, but
certainly $25 or $40 or even SIS
per month is more than any rural
district can pay.
In fairness to the high schools OF
Kootenai county, it should be
stated that the school officers have
been quick to see the situation and
in cases where the actual cost was
very high, have voluntarily made
more reasonable rate.
A reasonable fiat rate for high
school tuition should be fixed by
law, and paid from the general
school fund, thus distributing this
tuition charge to the whole county
instead of to few struggling rural
school districts.

LECTURED ON SPUDS
'enz at Athol and Rathdrum
Last Tuesday.

Frederick Benz, potato farmer
OF the Yakima valley and known as
the "potato king" spoke at the
Community Houee in Rathdrum
tuesday night, under auspices Of
the Northern Pacific railway COM
pany, by which he is employed as
agricultural sgent. !. H.. Rearden,
kootenai county agricultural agent,
arranged for the meeting here.
following one held at Athol the
afternoon of the same day.
Mr.. Benz's lecture dealt chiefly
with the science of potato growing.
He said the potato had sensibili-
ties not unlike those Of animals and
these must be carefully considered
10 selecting and caring for seed
tubers. With knife and vegetable
IN hand he gave a demonstration
OF what he called the wrong and
the right ways Of cutting potatoes
for seed. The stem end, be said,
is the weakest part. This should
De cut off back far enough to
discover disease and to cut away
the diseased part. The strongest
part of the potato is that end con-
tanning the most eyes. He told
how to distinguish the eating
potato from the seed potato
according to age and size in the
hill. In planting he advised that
in cool, wet ground two inches
depth is sufficient; in dry, warm
soil, not over three inches.
Generally, Mr.. Benz said, farmers
plow too shallow and plant two
deep. He said potatoes should
not be "buried alive" and then
have to waste their strength fight
ing for life in trying to grow up
thru four or FIVE inches Of soil. He
raped the superstition about
planting in the light or dark Of the
moon. "Do away with the moon
shine idea," he advised, land
plant in daylight" If frost does
not kill the vines at the proper
time in the fall, he said the vines
should be pulled, thus giving the
potatoes the proper time to ripen
for digging IS days later.
In the course OF his remarks, Mr..
Benz took a fling at "Townley-
ism." He said the farmer can
succeed only by working hard and
at his business, plant
ing and harvesting and marketing
right. He advised against gamble
ing with the market on wheat.
potatoes or any crop, unless the
farmer is so situated that he can
afford. like the Wall street
gambler, to lose:
