Thursday and Friday a class of ten took the state eighth grade examina tions. At this writing the results are not known but we do know that the pupil who attains the required grades and average in an examinaton such as the one sent out last week must have a thorough knowledge of the subjects upon which he is examined and in a few instances is expected to have learned terms not found in 'the text hooks selected by the state for use in the public schools. Personally we fa vor the system which provides for a state eighth grade examination though the present plan of grading by counties does not make this absolutely uniform throughout the state, it planes all the pupils of one county under one board of examiners, thus giving them an op portunity to compare their knowledge wilh that of those of the same grade for an entire county instead of the lo cal school. Now the air is filled with the dainty fragrance of the blossomfl of apple, plum, prune, cherry, peach and all the fruit bearing trees and the eye looks upon these beautiful forerunners of a yield that is rich with promise. Rains during the past week have greatly as sisted toward proper condition of the soil for successful cultivaton and every one is finding plenty of work at hand.

Studebaker wagons are made to back up a .reputation," " know, because wagons of every make come into my shop for repairs, and I have a chance to see how few are Studebakers. That's the opinion of thousands of blacksmiths who know the quality of Studebaker wagons. The owners never regretted that they bought StuJelaken. Tested materials, accurate workmanship insure a wagon unequaled for durability, and this careful selec tion of wood, iron, steel, paint and varnish has been a fixed rule with the Studebaker Company for sixty years. That is why a Studebaker wagon runs easiest and lasts longest It is built on honor. Whether "you live in town or country, there is a Studebaker vehicle to fill your requirements for business or pleasure and harness of every description made as carefully as are Studebaker vehicles.
