To satisfy demand for better rural education,
in 1905 the Department of Education established
Teaching Training course in the High Schools Of
Minnesota. The course consisted of review Of
the common branches professional training,
and limited amount of practice teaching in the
grades. Any student eecting to take this work as
part of his high school course was given first
grade certificate that enabled him to teach in the
full rural teachers trained in this way in the
Sank Centre schools.
In 1912 Sank Centre made Teacher Training
ing twelve or more high school credits On account
of the shortage of teachers occasioned by the World
War, this standard was maintained until 1922, when
the department established on graduate basis.
In 1924 the scholastic standards were raised Only
those in the upper onehalf of any graduating class
will now be admitted. Good health and satisfactory
personal qualifications are also required.
The present course consists of review and
methods in all the common branches professional

made to mark all animals in one
shipment on the same side.
When a fowl becomes sick it is
usually best to kill it, as it may be
affected by contagious disease
which, before it is recognized, may
spread. Furthermore, if the poul-
try owner attempts to treat such
birds there is great danger of car
rying infection from the sick to the
healthy in handling or feeding. If
a disease becomes established in
the flock, some kind of treatment
is advisable if possible. In case of
treatment it is important that the
sick birds be separated from the
healthy ones as soon as the symp-
toms become noticeable. :

Pastures for hogs must be sup

satisfactory results. An acre will
ordinarily furnish pasture for from

A good plan is to have two pastures

alternating them the pastures may
be grazed fairly closely and still
provide good, succulent feed.
