Jack Rabbits Source of
Heavy Loss to Farmers

Denver-Jack rabbits long have
been source of worry to Colorado
farmers, whose crops they dam
age and destroy in part every year.
A recent survey by the Colorado
biological division has the farmers
more worried than ever. The sur
vey disclosed that 118 jack rabbits
consume as much feed as 100
pound sheep and 1913 rabbits would
consume as much feed as a. $50
pound COW. Farmers are wonder
ing just how many of the pests
would be required to eat all the
feed in the state.
During the summer farmers
make war on the rabbits with poi
soned oats and shotgun or rifle.
In the winter they band together
and conduct hunts with clubs by
surrounding several sections of land
and driving the rabbits toward the
center. In the center is a pen into
which many of them are driven
while others are killed as they at
tempt to escape through the lines of
men.
1t is not unusual to see a pile of
nearly 10000 rabbits at the close of
a hunt of this sort. Sometimes the
drives are made with guns and the
rabbits are shot as they run from
the circle.

PINE COUNTY RURAL
SCHOOL NEWS
A. e. GUSTAFSON
County Superintendent

In recent issues we mentioned that
opportunities for rural pupils to OBJ
tain high school education are not
so good as for town children. Also
that some of the many causes OF
pupils leaving high school are the
impossible roads, and that some
teachers misunderstood the Adde'S
cent point of view.
In regard to the latter. DR.. Ke-
fauver, dean of college of education
of Stanford university. was quoted in
the Pathfinder November 2S) as fol-
lows: "Today's school curricula is
antiquated. and too many high school
teachers are maladjusted and neuro-
tic, using the school room as an es-
cape mechanism to bully and domi-
neer." Again we are reminded OF
the Twin City high school students
who recently left suicide notes blam-
ing unreasonable teachers and un-
happy school attendance.
On November the Pathfinder
quoted President Hutchins of the
University of Chicago as follows:
THE outstanding characteristic of
higher learning in this country is
its confusion. 1t begins in high
school and continues through college.
The high school of today cannot make
up it's mind whether it is preparing
students for life, or merely for col
lege. The college degree seems to
certify that the student has passed
an uneventful period and has a fair
recollection of what his teachers
have said to him."
Eight hundred and sixty-five child
rem of school age lost their lives in
Kentucky in 1894 by accident alone.
There is an ever growing need for
safety first education.
Henry Van Dyke said, 81 sing the
praise of the unknown teacher. Fam
Gus educators plan new systems, but
it is the unknown teacher who guides
youth"

Plans to Restore Fort
in Arizona Approved

Tucson, Ariz. - Fort Lowell,
eight miles northeast of Tucson, is
to be restored as nearly as pos
sible to its condition of the COS and
70's, when it was the principal mil
itary post in Southern Arizona for
protecting settlers from raiding
Apaches.
Restoration plans of the National
park service have been given their
final okay at Washington, and a
CCC camp is to be located at Low
ell this winter. The commandment
quarters and the hospital will be
reconstructed and measures taken
to preserve standing remains of 9TH
er buildings. A lane of cottonwood
trees that was the glory of the
desert fort before it's abandonment,
many years ago, will be replanted.

IN LAST 10 MONTHS
General Construction Also
Takes Big Jump.

Washington.-Ame spent 119
per cent more on home building
in the first ten months of this year
than in the similar period of 1885,
Miss Frances Perkins, secretary OF
labor, reports. General construc-
ton, Miss Perkins added, jumped
81 per cent and each branch of the
construction industry showed hand
some gains.
Building construction activity in
October, measured by the value of
permits issued, showed an increase
over September of more than per
cent" Secretary Perkins said. "The
increase over the preceding month
in the value of permits issued was
shared by six of nine geographic
divisions, with gains registered in
the value of new residential build
ings, new non-residential buildings
and additions, alterations and re-
pairs to existing structures.
Compared with October, 1885, all
types of building construction
showed decided gains, the value of
residential buildings for which per-
mits were issued increased sc per
cent; non-residential buildings, II
per cent, and additions, alterations
and repairs, % per cent. The value
of all buildings for which permits
were issued during the month is
more than IS per cent greater than
for October, 1885.
During the first ten months Of
1886 permits were issued for build
ings in cities with a population Of
10000 or over valued at $1,116, 1885,
600. This represents a gain of 81
per cent over the first ten months Of
1885. The value of the new resi-
Dental buildings for which permits
were issued during these months
amounted to $500, 952, 900 and for the
ten months of 1886 over the same
period the value of new nonresident
tial buildings increased "A per cent
and the value of additions, altera-
tons and repairs 80 per cent"
New York has not been passed
over in the resumption of activity
in the construction industry. Apart
ment houses to cost over SIC, ZOO, 900;
in the Bronx, 100000 worth of
apartment houses in Brooklyn, $780,
600 worth in Manhattan, more than
$2,200,000 worth in Queens and a
single mercantile building in the
same borough to cost over $500, 900
were all features of the Labor de-
partment report.
In Detroit factories costing more
than $500, 900 and in Milwaukee fac
tories to cost $225, 900 were in work.
In October alone $18, l76, 294 worth
of residential building contracts
were let in 800 cities in the Middle
Atlantic states - about $4,000 900
more than in September. In New
York City S16,311,11l worth of
building was done in October.
