the children become tired, drowsy,
and listless and can not do their best
work. A great many colds are the
result of changing from a room
where there is too much heat to
one where there is not enough.
Since extremes of temperature
have such bad effects on the health
OF the school children great care
should be taken to keep the rooms
as nearly at the right temperature as
possible.

THERE'S A REASON

The U. S. census bureau has just
issued a comparative statement of
the value of farm crops produced in
1919 by the IA leading agricultural
counties of the United States and al
so giving the value of the farm crops
produced in the same counties in
1909. The figures show a notable
shifting in the relative rank OF these
counties during the 10-year period,
which challenges careful considera-
ton to discover the cause of the
rapid advance and decline of certain
of these counties.
Whitman county drops from fourth
place, which it held in 1909, to sixth
place Had the 1919 wheat crop
been up to the average and had the
price of wheat not been fixed by the
government, this county would have
retained its position in fourth place
and might possibly have advanced to
third place.
Aroostook county, Maine, which
ranked eighth in 1909, advanced to
second place in 1919. This was due
to the abnormally high price of po-
tatoes in 1919, potatoes being the
principal crop of the county. With
normal potato prices Aroostook
county will slip back considerably in
the comparative rating.
Los Angeles county, California,
which stood first in 1909, retained
that proud rank in 1919 by an in
creased margin. The most striking
feature of the report is the notable
gains made by several of the Cali
fornia counties during the 10-year
period. San Joaquin advanced from
tenth to third place; Tulare county
from Goth to fourth; San Bernardino
county from 39th to eighth; Santa
Clara from 34th to 18th; Orange
county from send to 18th place.
How is the rapid advancement in
the value of the products of this
group of fruit growing counties to be
accounted for? The answer seems
clear: cooperative marketing of their
products, This system was devel-
oped in California between 1909 and
1919 and has brought prosperity to
the fruit growers by increasing the
price of their products through a
we'll regulated system of distribu-
ton. Before the adoption of this sys-
tenn the business of growing fruit
was demoralized and Improbable.
Producers of other crops in other
counties of the United States will find
ii advantageous to study this table
and take note of how the counties
which have adopted the so-called
California system of cooperative
marketing have forged to the front.
Another interesting fact in the re-
port is that Whitman county is the
only wheat county included in the
list. Those in Illinois are corn coun-
ties, and Lancaster equity, Pennsyl-
vania, is noted for its variety of farm
products. If Whitman county is to
retain first rank among the wheat
producing counties of the nation, it
behooves the growers to give careful
thought to the marketing system
which has enabled the California
counties TO make such fine record.

How much heat do you need to
do your best studying?
For the majority of people, the
amount of heat in which they can
do their best work is s. to 68 de-
grees, according to the best authori-
ties, yet the Pullman school chill
dren are working where the ex-
tremes of cold and heat vary from
55 to Sc degrees.
These facts were discovered by
Miss Lethe Fisher who has been
making study of the heating con-
ditions in the local schools as a part
of the survey which is being con-
Quoted by DR.. c. w. Stone of the
State College.
Miss Fisher made two measure
ments of the heat in each room on
two different quarter days with
Observation-Disclosures thermometers.
The Edison school showed the
worst results where the tempera-
ture varied from 80 degrees to sc
degrees. Over half of the children
were working in rooms so hot that
they actually were suffering from
the heat. This great variation in
the temperature is due largely to
the fact that the Edison school is
heated with stoves and it is almost
impossible to keep the temperature
even when stoves are used.
The worst room in the Edison
school was the third and fourth
grade room, where it varied from
6S to sc degrees. The best room
was the second grade room, where
the variation was only from 63 to
50 degrees.
In the other two buildings, where
there is a central heating plant for
both buildings. the variation was not
so great, although conditions were
poor.
In the high school, on the days
when the readings were taken, the
temperature in the different rooms
varied from 59b to II degrees.
Only one room had the temperature
in which the children can do their
best work, That was one of the
manual training rooms, where the
temperature varied from 66 to So
degrees. There were two rooms
that were altogether too cold, hav-
ing temperatures entirely below s.
degrees. These two rooms were the
English room and the other man
ual training room. The principals
Office had a range of 65 to II de-
grees, which was too warm for the
pupils to do their best work The
other rooms in the high school main
tanned a fairly even temperature
The chart printed here shows the
variations in the main school build
ing. The perpendicular black lines
represent the degrees of tempera-
ture The cross lines at the center
show the best temperature, from
So to 6S degrees. The cross lines
at so and 20 degrees are the danger
lines Heat above 70 degrees or less
than so degrees is harmful to the
health of the children. AS you can
see, the best room is room 1, the
beginners room, where the temper
allure only varied from 65 to IS de-
grees. The worst room was room
2, the first grade room, which was
almost entirely within the danger
zone, since the temperature varied
from 60 to 81 degrees, which is al
together too cold for the children
to do good work
Room 8. the fourth grade room.
was entirely within the danger zone,
having too much heat, from Ills to
74.5 degrees. Room s, one of the
seventh and eighth grade recitation
rooms, also reached high tempera-
ture mark, having as high as rs
degrees.
