FARM COURSE IN SCHOOLS ; STATE PROVIDES THAT AGRICUL- j ] TL'RE MAY ,BE TAUGHT IN VAJ{- > IOUS GRADES AND STATE WILL PAY HALF OF THE BILL. i __ — ;i Specific directions and plans for the in- , 1 traduction of the study of agriculture in 1 the sixth, saventh and eighth grades of i the public schools are given in a bulletin I Juat issued by the Department of Public Instruction and entitled "A Plan foe the Introduction of the Teaching of Elementary. Agriculture." The bulletin suggest* subjects for study and work, and methods of rating the agricultural work j cf schools adopting the plan. This introductory bulletin ia supple- ! men ted by certain pamphlets which give specific directions in' particular projects | which may be carried on by various schools. Some of these discuss "Oorn Growing," "White Potato Growing," "Sweet Potato Growing," "Vegetable Gardening," "Poultry Raising," and "Trees and Forests," The bulletin shows that no special i State aid is provided when this study ! ia introduced as a part of the regular school activities. When a special course is planted and a special teacher s hired to carry on the work with a defisite group or groups of pupils, and the course of study has been approved by | the State Board of Education, the dis- j trict is entitled to aid from the State un- | der the manual training law. This law provides that whenever a district raises, ( by special tax or by subscription a sum j sot less than $250. that a like amount i sot less man ezau, inai a use iiuiuimi

shall be provided by the State for the , purpose of carrying on a manual training ; e or industrial education. Any high school may introduce sub- ! * jects from the field of agriculture as a 1 part of the regular program of high ; c school studies. The State quotes from R $200 to $400 to each high school teacher, , * depending up the length of the course, j a and the work in agriculture, when ap- l: proved by the State Board of Education j c may be incorporated into any high , school course. ; * State aid to the extent of one-half I the maintenance and equipment will be 1 " provided to any district, or county which p organizes a vocational school of depart- , « menL Some of the plans suggested in i the bulletin are as follows: |l Vocational Agricultures! Department, , c which shall employ a teacher for the en- ■ 1 tire year, who shall give definite instruc- j « tion to a group of boys during the win- | i ter months aud super-rise their work on , < the farms during the summer. j ' A definite winter term for the instruc- | tion of boys who cannot attend the re- 1 1 gular high schools. | ' Definite expert supervision of ogricul- , tural projects carried on on the farms during the summer months, supplemented by occasional meetings or pupils with the teachers. Short unit courses which provide definite instruction in any one of the topics that are valuable to a group or groups of farmers in any qpmmunity. The bulletin was prepared by Lewis H. Oarris assistant commissioner of Education, in charge, of industrial education, including agriculture. There is a great opportunity in this for Qms May to seeurt a botanisal school.

FOREST NOTES. I Connecticut has one and a half million acres of timber, mainly in farmers' wood lots. i India1 is developing an important tur- ! pentine industry, though it docs not yet . ; supply the home market, j Only one wood. Spanish cedar, (Cedj rela odorata) is commonly used for cigar boxes. Sometimes a cheaper wood may ( from the basis of the box, with paper — thin veneers of the tropical cedar over i it. I I It has been suggested that certain : ; kinds of timber on the national forests ■ be reserved for the needs of the navy. . | This recalls the fact that the first for- • 1 est reservations in this country- were I ! made for naval material. : | The department of agriculture is try- | ing to eliminate the danger to cattle ■ | from poisonous plants on national for- ! est ranges. Of these plants, larkspur i | loco weed, death camas, and water heins | lock are the most poisonous. Larkspur i does the most harm, because it is so ' widely distributed and is particularly : bad for cattle. Ordinarily, horses will 1 not eat larkspur, and sheep can eat it without apparent injury. I o r I To Enjoy the Popular Dances r i The feet must be free from pain. Many e women and mn ii.-il.zc the comfort to „ be enjoyed by n-ing Allen's Foot-Ease. ] . the antiseptic powder to be shaken into | o the shoes before the dance. Since dane- \ </ ' ing- has become so popular, Allen's Foot- - ' Ease is in demand everywhere because it - | rests the feet and makes dancing a der light. For Free- sample, address, Allen i, S. Olmsted, Le Roy, N. Y. 2-14-4 Q . n I I Drury Lane melodrama of the most t

lurid type fairly pulls tremendous audi- , , , ences of supposedly blase Philadelphians , j from their seats every night at the | ( | Metropolitan Opera House. It would re- 1 j quire eye and car testimony really to i , convince anybody who has not attended , a performance of "The Whip," just how | , [ wild-eyed and frantic a white-shirted ' , and evening dressed gathering can amt ■ ( ! under the stress of honest primitive ( emotion. . , ] The tumult of applause following the ! ( , sensational wreck of the Newmarket : ] Express and the rescue of the race horse | ! "The Whip" from certain destruction, is simply pandemonium. Shrewd writers j and producers have shown more and , more of recent days their well-founded that melodrama rises supreme ! over vaunted theatrical taste and worldwisdom. Women scream until it J seems "their nerves must crack, and men | dress coats clutch the arms of their I- chairs during the many thrilling mo ments ^>f "The Whip." Among them are a horse race, the train wreck already mentioned: a- scene at Madame Tussaud's Wax Works, in j the Chamber of Horrors; a gathering of i j the Beverly Hunt; the horse show; the ■ paddock at the race course and the Fali eonhurst kennels, where, the hero lunges over an embankment in a runaway auto- - mobile. Of course you can forecast • every outcome, but . the drama is ad- • mirably sustained and the acting by an English company uncommonly good. . There are four acts and thirteen scenes, • which are changed with amazing repid- , ity, and the waits are delightfully short. r Consult JeaaT Brow* on Tin Roofs . and Spouting.

THE LONESOMENESS OF A GREAT CITY. r In the March Woman's Home Comr panion, a contributor tells the following - little story illustrative of the lonesomer ness of a great city: "It was somewhere near night in the j evening and the little Italian restaurant s was thronged by people who knew where -. to find a comfortable meal at a reason- - able price. A late -comer, surveying the e tables, discovered one at which there "May I sit hercT" he inquired of the e man at the opposite side, a young fel- • low who was waiting to be served. The r boyish face lighted up and the answer i- came cheerily, "Indeed you may, if you'U r only talk.' o A certain wistfulness was in the y smile that accompanied the words. The II lad was lonely and away from home, t and this dining by himself in the solitude that ib deepest when one is in a crowd and every face is strange had suddenly gripped him in its clutch and 7 made him homesick. Up-country among • the hills supper had been cleared away B- 1 by this time. Mother had taken out her ° I sewing, father was unfolding the weekly s* j paper and little brother was drawing a k- I map to be shown to the teacher in the '4 morning. "If you'll only talk. He s- caughfat the chance of hearing somebody n j address him in a friendly human way, -4 and the genial manner of the man who j promptly opened a conversation as he st | unfolded his napkin set him at easc^ land made him happy.

i There are numbers of people all around us who have this natural longing to be brought into an inner circle of ; friendliness and who arc not so ready i as the lonely boy -to ask for what they want. Would it not be well if some of were a trifle less shy in expressing i sympathy with the solitary, and instead of always wrapping ourselves in a manj tie of reserve, might we not occasionally 1 give a greeting to a stranger on the j road t
