The Mongrel Dog.
The Mongrel Dog with the raged coat
Kicked and cursed, with look
askance;
With a little food and decent care,
Would be a friend if he had a
chance.
Under the coat so shaggy and rough,
is a neurt that knows love and pain
uratciui ror a kind word or look,
Or a shelter from cold or rain.
How he'll watch the children plnv.
And join in their frolicsome mirth
If danger threatens the little ones,
How quickly he shows his worth.
How many times hus a mongrel dog
rroven nunscu noule and brave;
laying down to die with a broken
heart,
By the side of his master's grave
Let us then, try to prove,
As along through life we ioir:
That we're as kind, thoughtful and
true,
As the pool old Mongrel Dog.

Twenty-two cents cash, or twenty-

er with his eggs, when approaching
the grocer aristocrat of Oregon City.
This implies but one thing; an unjust
profit on his wares. A farmer's pro
duce should have a cash price as does
the merchant's groceries, and he
should be priviledged to receive the
cash in exchange for his butter, eggs,
nd potatoes with the liberty of
pending his money with whom and
or whnt he pleases.
It is often necessary for men to
go through the crucible before gain
ing the confidence justly their due.

A Subject In Which the Granget of tht
Country Will Bt Interested.
We must look to the North Star State
for the latest experiment In associat
ed rural Bcliools. It Is a new and
somewhat novel effort, yet practically
successful. It seems that the Minne
sota law, known as the agricultural
high school act of UK)!), provides that
rural schools that are contiguous to
high schools teaching agriculture, man
ual training and domestic science may
associate with tliera. The state gives
f 2,500 toward the work provided the
Iblgli school district gives $1,250. and
for each associated district an addi
tional $100 Is added, while the districts
so associated are each given 150. At
Cokato thirteen common school dis
tricts have united with the high school,
They assess themselves '2 mills for
the promotion of this agricultural
work, which produces a revenue of
about $1,700 per year. The amount
received from all sources for agricul
tural work in the associated districts
Is approximately $0,500 per year. Au
thorlty of control Is vested In an asso
elated board of six members of the
high school board and three members
of each of the common schools, thus
making a total board membership of
forty dve; but, to simplify manage
ment, the chairmen of each of the sep
arate school hoards constitute the man
aging board. The superintendent' of
the high school has a supervisory con
trol over the country schools thus Join
ed, but only such as the mannglng
board may give him. Ills valuable ad
vice Is given In the selection of teach
ers aud In arranging the course or
study, and he visits and takes an espe
cial Interest in each of these schools,
thus bringing them Into harmonious
relationship with one another. In
point of fact they and the high school
have become a unit of power for agri
cultural progress, a strong, vitalizing,
rejuvenating force.
While the rural schools are thus left
Intact, yet they become a part of a
larger, whole aivl o eulnv honoflro j

high sellout at Cokato tins engaged
three special tem hers, one fur agrt
culture, one for domestic science and
one for the manual training work.
Eighth grade pupils receive Instruction
In these brunches. The instructor In
agriculture devotes about half bis time
to outdoor work when the season per
mits and half to classroom instruction.
As the high school owns a tract of ten
acres of land, opportunity is given for
actual work by the students. The ag
ricultural Instructor has also eight
demonstration farms under his charge
that Is, he works In conjunction with
eight furmers who are willing to allow
htm 11 certain latitude In planning and
directing their work. These farms are
visited by 111 in frequently. He notes
the conditions under which ench farm
er Is laboring, not only of bis land, his
cattle and his buildings, but he takes
into account his entire environment
the financial and other difficulties un
der which he Is laboring and, having
taken all these Into consideration, he
Is In full sympathy with the farmer'
position and consequently knows how
to help him. It Is this particular phase
of the work, says one who Is closel
