IFarm Notesjj! Agriculture in Public Schools. The question of teaching agriculture iu our public echoola is being ventilated thoroughly by educational leaders. State Superintendent Stetson of Maine has expressed the conviction that in some elementary form all the teachers of that State should be prepared to teach agriculture. He thinks that farm boys and farm girls should be so taught that when they are through wittg the common schools they will be qualified. to make country homes, and not, by their very training, be biassed toward town life The fact is that the ordinary common school does comparatively ex alt trade and manufacturing as com pared with land culture. The children receive no information whatever con cerning animals and plants, concerning soils and fertilizers, nor are they taught the relation that in country life should exist between the true, the beautiful and the useful. Superintendent Joyner, of North Car olina, insists that agriculture should be taught jut as hi-tory is taught. Assign a lesson in nature study, and see that the pupil masters it. He thinks the application will come later. Pupils will become keenlv interested in matters that touch their everyday home life Then he would have supplied to the ,ptr pus small boxes, in which they -are to place the requisite soil, and in each plant a given number of seeds. He would have them test seed to begin with not go ahead blindly, but make sure at every point For instance, he finds in his experiments that cabbage seed germinates at a 90 per cent ratio, beet seed at a 100 per cent ratio, alfalfa at an 83 per cent ratio, oats at a 90 pr cent ratio, clover at a 75 percent ratio, while bine grass has a percentage of germination as low as 45. His object is to teach a child accuracy in all matters pertaining to agriculture ; but accuracy is nothing more or less than science. Elbert Hubbard emphasizes what the Plain-dealer has advocated the necesi ty of a radical change in the division of school work. To teach agriculture wisely requires a good deal of outdoor application. There is really no good reason why boys and girls should T)e eb.nt.rip all day inside schoolrooms. It is unnatural, and it is a serious.- damage to their nerves and their muscles. There i no reason why half of this time should not "be spent out of doors in the application of the lessons learned. These may be lessons 'in entomology or iu ornithology, or in direct gardening. "Mr. Hubbard adds: "Suppose we quit talking about war, and set ourselves to the problem of educating our boys and girls that is, educate them to be useful J one session a day for books and the afternoon for hand work." He thinks this would end the era of overworked teachers and 'yel low, nervous pupils. At present we are giving twice as much to war as we are to our schools. We are glad to welcome the assistance of all thoughtful educa tors, editors and o'hers in this campaign for common sense. Let ' us mske our motto "Educate for the farm and not from the farm; educate for the country and not from the country. The Beet Sugar Industry in 1903. A report on the progress of "the beet sugar industry in 1903, prepared by F. Baylor special agent of the United States Department of-Agricnlture, and printed by antbority-Congress, is about to be issued It shows that there has been an increase in the number of beet sugar factories in the Unite States from forty-three at the "close of 1902 to fifty-six at the beginning of 1904 Fifty of these were in operation during the campaign of 1903 According to the report the sugar beet crop oi isflw amounted to a little more than 2,000,000 tons, harvested from 242,576 acres, the averaee yield beinif about eight and one-half tona to the acre. The prices which ihe farmers re ceived for beets from the different fac rory companies ranged from J 4 50 to $5.50 a ton, the average being near f 5 The average gross returns to the farm- era were, therefore, $42 50 an acre. The estimated test of growing b-eu by irri gatiqn is f40 an acre, and in sections where irrigation is nornecesary $30. If $35 be taken as tbe average for the whole crop of 1903, the average net profit to the farmers was $6.50 an acre. In some of the sugar beet areas the re turns were very much-higher than this general average. As in the production r . i i , , . , oi uiuer crops', inucu aependB on trie season, the character of land, and tbe kind of farmer who grows the beets .Many farmers have cleared from $25 to $50 an acre. The best result xn 'record for 1903 was secured" -bj a farmer .of Otero County, Col. Hebrew one acre of sugar beet sat a cost of about $37 50; tne yield of beets was thirty-three tons, ior wnicn ne received 10a, ma net re turns being about $130 The amount of sugar made from the beet crop of 1903 Was 240,604 tons,"as compared 'with 218,40o tons from the crop of 1902, atri 184,605 to'ns from that of 1901. Within the last few years there has been a remarkable increase in the per centage of sugar in the beets. A few years ago 12 per cent of sugar was the standard. Last year in many cases tbe entire crop sold to a factory averaged 15 to 18 per cent. xnere is a prospect mat many new factories will be built in tbe next year or two. Many improvements are being made in methods and machinery used in the growing and handling of beets The beet pulp produced by the factories is used by the farmers as feed 'for tbeir stock more generally than heretofore. The reports will be for distribution, by Senators, Representatives and .delegates in Congress, and by the Department of Agriculture. 'Irrigation Projects. - . "The importance and extent of the Ir rigation work undertaken by the federal government in the Far West is impres sively demonstratedby the latest appro priatfon of the Secretary of the Interior, who has just set apart $27,000,000 of the reclamation in nd for the construction of fourteen irrigation projects according to plans perfected by the engineers of the Reclamation Service The projects determined upon anJ on j which work will be pushed from now on include the Salt River, in Arizona, and tho Truckee project, in Nevada, on which work has already begun and which will each cost approximately $3,000,000 ; the Uncompahgre, in Colorado, which con sists of excavating a tunnel six miles long, from the Gunnison River to the valley of the Uncompahgre. This pro tect will, it is calculated, irrigate some 1' -0,000 acres of extremelv fertile soil. The proposed tunnel will, whencomplet ed. constitute one of the most remarka ble engineering feats in the world. It will cost $2,500,000. For the Minidoka project, in Idaho, $2,500,00 1 is set apart. It is proposed to construct a dam 50 feet high and 572 feet longrwhich will convert a canyon on the Snake River into a reservoir thirty-live miles long. This is expected to irrigate 120 000 acres, most of which belongs to the government and which will bedivid ed into tracts of forty to eighty acre?, thus creating 1,400 new farms. Tne Yuma project in California con templates the expenditure; of $3,000,000 on the Yuma River, where it is hoped to reclaim from 400,000 to 670,000 acres As solid rock strata have not yet been discovered actual dam s:tes have not l)eeii. projected, and the entire work is still more or less problematical. For the completion of Milk River pro ject, in' Montana, $1,500,000 has been apportioned. This project originally contemplated the conservig of the flood waters of St. Mary's Lake, permitting them to flow into the Milk River, which would convey them across Canadian territory and back into the United States it iB'feared, however, that international complications might arise from this pro gramme, and it is probable that the sur plus waters will be retained in this coun try by the construction of a canal con necting with Cut Ranks Creek, a tribu tary of the Marias River. The most re markable feature of this projt is that it will divert water which now flows in to Hudson Bav to the Missouri, and eventually to the Gulf of Mexico. Tnis project is expected to irritate 250,000 acres. For the construction of a reservoir near the the Hondo River in New-Mexico, which will irrigate 20,r.00 acres, $300- 000, is set apart. On the Yellowstone River, in Mont ana, will be located a canal near Fort Buford, which will irrigate 60,000 acres at a total cost of $1,650,000. TwoTeservoirs are to Deconstructed in "Easterd.ljregbn, near the Snake River, which will irrigate 40, 000 acres oi good bench land at a cost vet to be determin ed. It is further proposed to store and di vert waters of the Belle Fourche River, in the Black Hill country of South Da kota, whereby 90,000 acres can be irri gated at a cost of $1,250,000. The three remainuig projects thus far letermined upon are in Utah, Washing ton and Wyoming. Utah Lake is to be converted into a reservoir which will irrigate 70,000 acres at a cost of $1,000,000 In the vicinity of the Columbia River, in Washington, are to be constructed a Eenes of reservoirs which will irrigate tbe land in 154 townships at a cost of, approximately, $1,150,0, 0. The last pro ject comtemplates the reclamation of 102,000 "acres of excellent land, lyinj: from 4,150 feet above sea level along the banks of the Shoshone River. To accomplish this it will be necessary to dam the Sho shone Canyon with a masonry construc tion 170 feet high, 65 feet long at the bottom and 15J feet long at the top. This will create a reservoir which will hold 159,500 feet of water. The project will cost $2,250,000. Oleadale News.

What Judge Crane Soya, Judge Leroy Crane is oriO of the magis trates of Now York city. Almost every day in the year ho sits on tho bench in his courtroom and listens to tho com plaints that are made to him by police men and others. Thousands of boys and young men are brought beforo him every year accused of crimes. What ho says about tho cause of much of this wrong doing ought to be listened to with atten tion by our boys. 1 his is what, tho judge say: Something has got to be done in re gard to curbing the evil that is menac ing the very manhood of the race tho cigarette. If it is not taken hold of and checked we shall no longer rear a race of men, and when tho generation that is growing up conies to take charge of the government of this cou itry will bo found incapable of doing to. I helievo that the cigarette question should be made a national one, and tho fathers and mothers of the land should le aroused to tho danger and should join together to stump out tho evil. There is no one so capable of realiz an existing condition of this sort as a magistrate, and 1 shall only say that of three hundred boys that have recently appeared before me charged with every crime, from tho most petty to murder, two hundred and ninety-five were cigarette smokers. At least, this means that tho boys who do not smoke ciga rettes do not fall into ways that lead to the criminal courts. I have considered also writing to all the mayors of the cities of the country asking for their aid in the work and to get them to agitate the question and to do what they can to stop the a-ful prac tice. I have received a iiun.l er of letters commending my attitude on this ques tion. I try to be kindly to the bovs that are brought before me. It is not a matter of scolding them, but of advis ing them. I try to get them to promise to stop smoking cigarettes, and some of hem honestly do, and I bilieve, will keep it up. One letter I got comes from one who signs herself " A Mother," and it is deeply pathetic. "Thank God." it says, "that there is one man who dares to speak his mind against this hydra-headed monster, the cigarette. I believe they have caused more crime than all the other intluei cts in the world. They diivc out all the good there is in a boy. They are machines of the devil used to corrupt the rising generation. Why cannot the government of the United States be made to see this danger in i's proper light and put a stop to the manu facture of these cursed rolls. My boy was crazed by cigarettes and tried to kill himself bv inhaling gas. but we found him and saved him. I boubt if he will ever recover from the! effects, however He was a bov that ' had everything to live for, bright, in-1 telligent, and full of spirits, made mo-' ever to live by cigarettes. This is a sample, and there are others who have written in mnch the same tone. I have several plans in my mind to help in this work, f he main thing now is to arouse interest in the efforts to put the question in its true light. First, the parents should tell their children what an evil this is and how great are its dan gers. Then, 1 believe that it should be taught in the schools, and the punils told plainly just what cigarette smoking means. And I believe the qutstion should come before Congress, and a law enaciea 10 prevent tneir sale and impo tationand manufacture in this connlrv. I am determined to do II I can to stop cigarette smoking, and I want to arouse the people on the subject.

It was first said she had broken it off, then that Ins heart had changed, but finally she con fessed that she had been so irritable, so depressed and blue that she had fairly driven mm away. Her good looks were vanishing. She was Setting thin, pale, and hollow check ed, with dark circle around her eyes. Suddenly all society was pleased again to hear of Uic engage ment being renew ed, and it was not long before a beau tiful and radiant bride was taken to the altar Slie ti.nl regained her good looks, her former happy disposition aud strong nerve all through a secret a friend gave her. A few bottles of Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription is what made two mote lives happy and a radiant bride more beautiful than she had ever appeared before.

I Box 536, writes : "For nearly two years I was a great auflercr with ulceration and enlargement of womb, also Mifferetl severely with dyspepsia and was run down a perfect wreck. 1 doctored Tor aeverjl years ; got 1111 better, until about even months ho 1 liegan taking Dr. Ilerce's Favorite Prescription and ' I'lrssant relleta.' lean stand on my let I aud work hard alt day.
