A North Dakota By

Il was an act to create fund by as

Since the law was enacted, 20 state
banks closed; in two. deposits were
paid in full. 10 were reopened and 40

to draw interest at 5 per cent, or from

to their liabilities. while the guarantee
tax at the outside would produce
$40, 600 year.
1t will be seen that under its most
favorable operation the state guaran-
tee law would fall short of paying the
interest alone. while the principal
amounting to from five to seven mil
hon dollars, will constantly increase
under the operation of the state guar
antce law.
This law is an incentive. a boot

How About Sl4,310,-
100000?

While New York slickers are busy
trying to steal a few hundred thous-
and dollars from one another, calling
the accomplishment a day OF good
business, while the Broadway lounge
lizards are cluttering the streets of our
cities and boring us with their silly
chatter, the great American farmer
comes along with a production Of
goods worth Sl4,3l0. 100000 for the
year 1922 When one thinks OF this
accomplishment in terms OF service to
America. everything else vanishes
from view.
The crops harvested during the year
are worth SS.o6l 100000, while the val
he of farm animals and animal pro-
ducts footed up to S5,349, 100000.
The outlook for 1923 is even bright
err.
The spending power of agricultural
America almost staggers the magma
ton even as it is, and with a steady
growth in sight.
The year 1922 shows an increase OF
nearly two billion dollars over 1921.
What the increase for 1928 will be is
speculative
Texas led all the states in 1922 in

footing I'D TO a value of 81, DOL 100000.
Iowa came second, and Illinois third.
1t is the farmer and the demands
of the farmer that keep the manufac-
tories of the east busy and hold labor
at its task. How important it is that
each should understand the problems
and ambitions of the other. the farmer
and the bricklayer. the mill worker
and the farm hand-the real men of
America, the sustainers of American
life.

BRUSHES FOR HOUSEHOLD
They May Be Divided Into Three
Glasses, Which Are Bristle. Hair.
and Fiber.

There are two classes Of brushes,
those with backs and those with
out. These come in bristle. In hair and
in fiber. II Is fiber and brlstles that
are of special interest in discussing
household needs.
The backless brush has the sd-
vantage OF being disable In any posi-
ton and thereby being at least twice
as long-lived as the brush whose only
working surface is one side. These
brushes are marvelously made and the
bristles, hair. fiber or fabric (mops)
are SO fastened in as to make falling
bristle almost an impossibIlity. These
brushes come in every department OF
house life: toilet. bath, pantry. laun-
dry. clothes. kitchen. halls and walls.
The Russian pony gives the best horse
hair, and the wild boar gives the most
and best bristles. The test for the
bristle is that II will not break II
bent back and will spring Into place
again. The hair and bristle when
burned give a characteristic hair odor.
The fiber brush, though cheaper
brush, is adapted to things for which
the brlstle brush is not adapted. The
fiber makes good scrubbing brush,
but the bristle would not be stin
enough. Many fibers are made to look
like bristle. but the bristle test VIII
save you from a rash purchase. The
bristle brush is expensive and so Is
the brush OF camel or badger hair
from which painting and shaving
brushes are made.

LESS BLINDNESS IN COUNTRY
Figures Reveal a Gratifying Decrease
81 Terrible Affilotisn Throughout
the United states.

Imagine. II you can. q city OF 10000
Inhabitants. where every single soul is

America has the makings OF just
such city. There are more than 120.-
900 totally blind people in the United
States. and many times that number
partly blind. The terrible part OF II
is that more than So per cent Of blind
ness is classed as preventsble. large
portion being the result of eyestrain.
1t is encouraging to note. however,
that blindness in America mas de-
glasses have become more common.
Every other country has far greater
percentage Of blindness. and they show
q yearly increase. Three OF every ten
Americans wear glasses. Statistics
prove that seven OF each ten have
enough eyestraln to warrant the wear
ing OF correcting lenses. When We

derstand why so many people neglect
their eyes until they are permanently
injured. In the first draft OF Amsri-

time of the draft 2.510.70o men were

Jected because OF grossly defective

Practical Education

The school should be made to Mt
the student. not the student the
school" says Superintendent OF
Schools Frank Ballou, of Washing
ton.
Would there were more educators
who made this slogan. and less who
we're so concerned with administrative
duties and good system
For one of the crying needs OF on
educational system is that it be pulled
away from too thorough standard
ization.
Certain things are fundamental in
any education, reading, writing, nath-
ematics, history, geography; these are
among the essentials. But when the
school children have been grounded
in the fundamentals OF an education.
!, IS no more sensible to direct all of
them in the same way, and TO take the
same courses, than it would be sensi-
bic to try TO educate all men 10 be
doctors or bricklayers or storekeep-
ers.
The old idea of education was time
enough to begin to specialize when
primary school, higher grades, high
school, and college had done their
best" Today it is being more and
more recognized that there is too
much waste of time in an educational
system which insists upon all pupils
who 60 through the high schools hav-
ing a choice of but a few different
courses. One of the appalling results
OF such a program, originally con-
ceived with the idea of saving money.
and producing standardized course"
is found in the fact that too many
boys and girls leave high school with
out graduating, simply because they
are not interested, and find themselves
unable to waste time following cours-
es which they feel are without benefit
to them.
Doctor Ballou further states:
Seldom does one realize that chill
dren do not leave school for economic
purposes, but because they are unable
to get that teaching and instruction
toward which they lean. To prevent
this we should group the children in
various classes, such as those who
wish to go through the colleges ard
universities and those who will go to
work after finishing either the graded
or high schools"
Constructive and alert school au-
thorities in many places have seen this
long ago; diversified work, manual
training schools, wide choice Of cours-
es, special classes, more elastic
graduation requirement, and the estab-
hshment OF junior high schools are
all answers to the same problem.
But there are many localities in the
country where the old idea still holds
sway, where children are fitted into
the school whether they must be
stretched or compressed, and where
the good of the school as an organic
alton is considered before the ultimate
good of the student.
1t may be noted in passing that the
newer idea takes hold first where par
enls are alertly interested in their
schools, and that the old idea hangs
on longest where the taxpayer takes
the attitude, 81 have paid my share,
let the school board handle it"
