It is no kind- ness.to the farmer to have him neg- !lect his spring farm work to get out {and destroy the"best piece of road in bhis- neighborhood. Good ~ roads are the greatest benefit to the farm- iers, and once a farmer gets a statc jroad in front of his heme and which {is maintained by an efficient care !taker, it is a road he wants kept Importance of the Product In the Fer- |up to the best possible condition. It jmeans an increase in the value of {bis farm land from $10 to $20 an Punishment up to $1,000 fine or a year in jail for failing to vote is the method for bringing out a good vote at elections in this state pro- posed by Representative Lydiard of Minneapolis, is a new bill introduced in the house Tuesday morning. It makes a gross misdemeanor for any voter to fail to exercise his franchise ; unless he is sick or out of the state. | The split 1bg drag has contributed more toward the economic mainten- ance of public highways than any !} implement of modern usage. It does not require special acts of the legis- | lature, bond issues nor expensive edu- cational campaigns to make it avail- able as usually precedes construction work. A drag can be built or pur- chased for twenty dollars and is easi- ly operated by any one who can drive a team. We need more drags. Women in Front Rank. The advance of woman ip the edu- cational field is shown strikingly in| statistics just made publiec by C. G. Schulz, state supcrintendent of edu- cation. His figures relate to the common or country schools, which are supervised by county superintend- ents. The tables show that -there are ten times as many women teach- | ers in the common schools than there | were fifty-two years ago. The num- ber of men teachers increased less than 100 per cent. Time was when it that only a man could teagh thej youth of the country. But Minne- sote parents early realized that a wo- man could be just as capable as a man. In fact the first school teacher in Minnesota was a woman, Harriet Bishop. She came to St. Paul from Vermont, by way of Cincinnati by steamer in 1847. The only available school bullding was a log cabin ten feet long and twele feet wide, which formerly had been- used as a blacksmith shop. It was there Miss Bishop. began, her work. i Just fifteen years later there were 809 women and 360 men teaching in the .common schools. of the. state. Minnesota even was then setting the pace in educational matters, which has put the state in the front rank of the states in this regard. That was in 1862. By 1864, 109 'men and-610 women had been added to the teaching staff of the common schools. In 1914-the number of teachers in- creased -to -8,954. The . pupils have increased from 32,560 to 457,041. Today- -there are eleven: women teachers to every to every.schoolman in the common-schools. ‘Women teachers were apparently not worth much when the Indians romped--on- - Minnesota - soil. Mr. Schulz’s figures show they were paid $10 a month on the average. But the men got twice as much. Today the men get $58 a month on the aver-| age in the country schools, The wo- men get $49 2 month on the average. The difference-between the wage the women teachers got in 1862, as come was thought from twice as much to one-fifth Distributed- among the log" house | they acre.—St. Cloud Journal-Press. IR R R e R R ) * GOOD ROADS NOTES * KKK E R KRR KKK By HOMER D. WADE. No other citizen realizes the value of good roads as does' the farmer. A community can safely be judged by the kind of highways it main- tains. The greatest chasm between the producer and the consumer is the mud hole. Production must cease when the transportation ‘costs eat up the pro- fits. \There is something radically wrong with the farmer who is op- (posed to good roads. Without good roads there can be no development that will he per- manent and enduring. . Bad roads keep children away from school and impair the efficiency of church work in a community.

[Prepared by United States department of. agriculture.] The manufacture of acid phosphate bas come to play-such an important part in the fertilizer industry of the United States that the department of agriculture has just issued a bulletin on the subject which is designed both for manufacturers and for progressive farmers. _Phosphate rock. it Is said, has “almost entirely displaced hone. guano and apatite as a.source of phos- phoric acid. and a knowledge® of the | exact composition of the rock is of | fmportance. because not only the phos. | phate of lime but all the impurities as well are acted on by the sulphuric acid | used ‘as a reagent-and influence the‘ finished product. i Of all the impurities occurring in phosphate rock couipounds ofiron and | aluminjum are the most dreaded. Even in small quantities these elements-are | apt to cause a certain amount of re- version and in large quantities may render the product sticky and unfit for | use. - By careful handling. however, phosphate high in iron and aluminium compounds may be wade to produce high " grade acid phosphate. On the other hand, carbonate of lime. is desir-| able when the quantity is not excessive. Both the *‘den™ and the “open dump" systems are in general use for making acid phosphate, each baving: certain. advantages. In' the “del ystem after the rock ‘and sulphuric “acid are thor- ouglly mixed the compound is dropped into a closed brick lined chamber or “den,” where the chemical reactions raise the temperature to-a high point and are completed in twenty-four hours e - cold water and dry. ‘horoughly; Itis Just as im-/ “-portant that you use a soap. which, —of 1tself does not irritate;-the. skins A soap that burns and ‘swarts leaves the skin extremely sensitive to the wind and cold.

The fumes given off in the process, more- over, -may become a serious nuisance in the vicinity of towns. On'the other hand, the remotal of the acid phos- phate from the den Is troublesome and when done ln hund sometimes danger- ous. The cost of producing acid phos- phate, the bulletin says, depends on a number of varying factors, such as the size. location and equipment of the- plant and the cost of sulphuric acid. Exclusive of office expenses. it may-be said to range from $6.20 to $8 |a ton. “The product is sold on the ba- of its so called available phosphoric acid content and is worth at the fac- tory from 40 fo 56 cents a unif. oF twenty pound:, The phosplioric acid content runs from I+ to 21 per cent of the marketed Jiroduct * Ne Such Good Luck.
