If the com- mittee’s suggestions are taken and acted upon legislatively, not only will the schools be more efficient and the standard of teaching higher, but much money will be saved to the taxpayers which is now being spent unwisely. Thé statistics compiled by the com- mittee whose best efforts for over a year were deyoted to looking into conditions are really appalling. Here are a few taken from the Wyoming School Journal of January. Startling Facts jalfalfa fields fresh and swpet.
