Superintendent Peterson of the Loomis pub- lic schools writea to The Bee a most illuminat- ing contribution on the relations between farm life and the public schools. He touches immedi- ately on the most vital factor in the problem of rural development. Social growth on the farm or in rural communities is in direct ratio to the school service. This is of first importance, because of the fundamental influence of the training gained at school in fixing the bent of the mind to the city or to the farm. Superin- tendent Peterson is right in his conclusion that the teacher is the pivot on which this determina- tion turns. This presents a condition that embraces practically the entire scope of the public schpool, and, therefore, is not to be immediately settled. It should be carefully studied, that responsi- bility for deficiency be located and the remedy applied. &lementary education should go edge, and should open up the child's mind that it may expand along ways now closed by bar- | riers of text-book information that often are never surmounted, no matter how many years of experience may follow school days.

In all his dealings with con- gress, Mr, Wilson has moved with caution, in« sisting only when he had control, eracking the whip over the recalcitrant, and sparing not. It he makes demand for a vote now, it is because ho knows it will be his way, This confirms the expressed view that all the uproar in congress last week was for political effect, and that the pretense of patriotic concern was sham. It is too bad that grave negotiations with forelgn powers could not be carried on without mixing eratic way of doing things. Anti-Navy Case Well Stated. A correspondent, who hides his identity be- hind initials, has very completely summed up the case for the antl-navy forces. He says the big navy will be used to support a big merchant marine. In turn a big merchant marine will be used to export materials that might be used at produced at home. Also, it means a war within fifty or sixty years. The postulath is that we abandon all plans for naval expansion, and by degrees approach the state of “splendid isola- tion,"” in which we found Japan some sixty years ago.

MARCH e outline of the following debate | ¥ has been propared by an expert | Bditor of The Bee | the | the 1916 R rness of Migratory Game Law., HAY SPRINGS, Neh., March 1 The supporters mig: great deal In the line cles In the daily papers idea in the true sportsman’s head he will be greatly punished if he happens to kill a few ducks and geese this spring during their migration to the far north, which in Nebraska only lasts from one to three weeks. We read ac- counts of the supporters of this special privilege law (the milllonaire game hogs) slaughtering the wild game by the thou- sands In the gulf states, their winter quarters, which s allowed by this law untll February 15, and as soon as the game starts north, which is about the time the law closes in the south, trying to force that heads off, if the sportsmen of the middle states think of doing a little epring shoot- ing. We venture to say that all the game killed in Nebraska in one spring's shoot- ing by the real Nebraska sportamen does | not amount to a drop in the bucket, as the saying is. to what is slaughtered by these millfonaire game hogs in the south during the winter months. The true Ne- braska sportsmen are wondering what we have our federal district judges for. read of several of these able jurists de- clared this law uncomstitutional, and over all this we allow ourselves to be dictated to by a set of selfish game mon- grels, purporting to be for the protection | of our wild game. If the so-called so- clety for the protection of our wild fowl bird life is made up of such fellows God help the birds. Perhaps some of the sportsmen remember reading an article in the Sunday World-Herald of January 23 giving a detalled account of meveral of the millionaire olass of sportsmen of Omaha, of their trip to the gulf the fore part of January, and how easy it was to get the bag limit every day, and the Lord only knows how many more. The pie- ture of a $300 shotgun made to order ap- pears in a Sunday paper belonging to one of these gentlemen. The sportsmen of this part of the state sincerely hope that the publishers of the dally papers will give the true sportsmen of Nebraska an €qual share of space In their columns, and we will give the true facts in regard to the unfairness of the federa] migratory game law. We contend that it is no more than a speclal privilege law and should be repealed. W. R. BOWMAN, High Holders, HEARTWBLL, Neb., Feb. 28.—To the Editor of The Bee: Recently in a little town near Hastings a couple of Wilson enthusiasts, who. evidently regarded themselves to be of conaiderable import- ance, advanced arguments that were equivalent to the assertion that Wilson is the only man in the United States the people can consistently choose at the coming election for president; that it is impossible to tell what & man's real ability {s until he has served for a time in the presidential chalr. ‘They further contended that governors and postmaster are’ unnecessary officlals; that they per- form no real service, have no responsi- bility and do not exercise judgment in way to give an indication of fitness. In the light of such reasoning, if it can be called reasoning, strange it is that the democratic party dlscovered Wilson's sterling qualities while he was serving as governor of New Jersey, and that, as progressive as the democratic party would have us belleve it is, postoffice officlaldom has not been abolished, and no start made to abolish governorships. Assuming that the demoocratic hands, if Wilson will accept, we may ex- pect him to be president the rest of his life; and when he expires, that Bryan, who probably will still be hale and hearty, will be given a tryout, Now, we have a dream of the past, within the memory of living men, when the full definition of democracy was gov- ernment by all the people. But the peo- ple wandered into the wilderness, threw away their spears and were sung to sleep by the silvery, tingling strains of ninety- six, Suddenly we are awakened to be charmed into submission by the sancti- monious song of High Holders. Oh! ye gods of incumbency, it we would follow thy trend, we should soon bow down to recelve the ultimate decrees of & new-made crown, worn by one robed and regaled by a nation’'s denlal, given %o reign on a golden throne. ‘W. B, A VOTER. Pinchot on Conservation. MILFORD, Pa., Feb. 18.—To the Editor of The Bee: T write (o ask your help to defeat a most serious attack on our pub- lic resources. Since the fight over the Alaska resources was won there has not been so pressing a threat against the conservation policy as the present effort in congress to give our public water powers for nothing Into monopolistic control. ‘The Shields bill, now before the senate, gives to the power Interests without com- pensation the use of water power on navigable streams. The amount of water power these streams will supply is larger by far than all the power of every kind now in use in the United States. It pre- tends to, but does not, enable the people to take back their own property at the end of fifty years, for in order to do so under the bill the government would have to pay the unearned Increment, and to take over whole lighting systems of citles and whole manufacturing plants. Private corporations are authorised to selse upon any land, privato or publie, they choose to condemn. Bills which gave away public water powers without due compensation were vetoed by Presiient Roosevelt and Presi. dent Taft. The Shields bill would do pre- cisely the same thing today. Another water power bill, the Ferris bill, relating to the public lands and na- tional forests, was in the main a good bill s it passed the house. As reported to the senate it encourages monopoly by permitting a corporation to take as many public water power sites as it may please. Under it the corporations could not even be kept from fastening upon the Grand canyon, the greatest natural wonder on this continent. This bill takes the care of water powers on nstional forests from the experienced and competent forest service and gives It to the Interior de- partment, thus entafling duplication and needless expense. In my opinion there s undue careless- ness as to the disposal of public resources ot present in Washington.

BELLEVUE, Neb, Feb. 3.—To the|A® men wawe war for principle, for profit Editor of The Bee: In the grain exchange | and for pride under even date I note under the caption, “Interesting Facts About Wheat, Its Growth, Nature and Uses.”" the fact that the flour required to make a one pound loaf of bread can be recovered from the wheat grown on two square feet of ground. Further, that 84 per cent of a kernel of wheat s com- posed of flour cells, of which 1a interesting, especially when one tackles it with pencil and paper as my curiosity led me to do. above, one acre of ground will produce enough flour to make 21,78 one pound loaves of bread, which at 5 cents per loaf would amount to $1,08. 1 have taken @ strong average, twenty bushels of wheat | per aore or 1,200 pounds, and can recover, according to above figures, 6 pounds of flour, which at present price, $1.40 per #ack of forty-elght pounds, amounts to $22.06, which if above stands true shows & difference between raw and finished product of $1,086.9, or over 4,50 per cent— a fairly safe margin on which to do business. Taken from the angle of farm to baker it's somewhat differént. Farmer to local elevator, to commission man, through exchange inspectors and tally- men to miller, to baker, we find that the one acre of ground raising twenty bushels | of wheat or 766 pounds recovered flour, with flour at $1.40 per sack of forty- elght pounds, Including shorts and bran at $35 per ton and wheat at $1.25, has passed through all hands from farm to baker at a margin of only $2.60.

Mrs. Kernan lives at 4306 Lake street, Omaha. “I have had indigestion for the last ten years, and have been much worse recently,” she informed the Tanlac man: “I was very nervous and I would have pains in my stomach. I could hardly #tand the pains and it was hard to get rid of the gas that formed in my stom ach. No matter what kind of food I ate it would sour on my stomach within an hour. I have tried other medicines, but nothing has done me as much good as Tanlac. “I read In the papers of people being helped ss much with Tanlac, so that is the way T happened to tal it. After taking only one bottle I am eating any- thing I want without any trouble. I had gotten very much worse lately. I am glad now that I saw Tanlac adver- ed in the paper and tried It. Tanlac is the greal thing I ever tried for Indigestion, declared Mrs. Kernan. “T certainly feel llke a different person and I recommend Tanlac to any- one bothered with indigestion.” Taplac is being specially introduced and explained by the Tanlac expert at the drug store of Sherman & McConnell, Six- teenth and Dodge streets.
