which is cold and rainy brings about con¬ 
ditions resulting in poor pollination. 
Again, this season has been conducive to 
excessive suckering which means that the 
stalks will be poorly eared and the yield 
proportionately lower. Then the danger 
of frost is always a gamble and is par¬ 
ticularly hazardous this year when it is 
realized that the season is three or four 
weeks behind schedule. I would suggest 
therefore the following combination: 
500 lbs. of corn and cob meal; 200 lbs. 
43 per cent cottonseed meal; 200 lbs. 
bran; 100 lbs. linseed meal. 
As Winter approaches if it is possible 
to buy hominy or buckwheat middlings 
or ground wheat to supplement or replace 
part of the cornmeal then the ration 
could be modified ; likewise the amount of 
linseed meal should be increased as soon 
as the cows are taken off of grass.

Rural School Meeting at the 
State Fair 
(Continued from Page 1239) 
the Committee of Twenty-one, some dis¬ 
cussion arose as to whether the Grange 
had really been represented, members of 
the organization in the audience evidently 
doubting it. The question was referred 
to former Master Lowell, who was pres¬ 
ent, and he stated that representatives 
had been appointed to this committee; 
he did not, however,, enter into any dis¬ 
cussion of the difference between actual 
and nominal representation, the point 
probably uppermost in the minds of 
Grangers present. Vigorous in his de¬ 
fense of the Education Department 
against what he considered unjust im¬ 
plications, and equally vigorous in his 
condemnation of what he considered mis¬ 
chievous interference with the State’s 
educational system, Dr. Downing made a 
good impression upon the audience. 
Following the addresses briefly quoted 
above, the conference turned to consid¬ 
eration of resolutions offered. One offered 
by D. Boyd Devendorf, secretary of the 
Rural School Improvement Society, 
would commit the conference to recom¬ 
mendation of “most strenuous opposition 
to the efforts of all those who are trying 
to abolish the home rule of our common 
school districts,” and of an aggressive 
campaign for the purpose of correcting 
the misinformation spread by camouflaged 
exponents of compulsory consolidation of 
rural schools. This was promptly 
adopted. Other resolutions offered by 
members of the committee and adopted 
after debate upon their various features 
recommended that district school superin¬ 
tendents be elected by the people of tin* 
districts which they serve, that they shall 
have resided at least five years in their 
supervisory districts and shall have had 
at least two years’ experience as teachers 
of rural schools. Another protested 
against further increase of power or pay 
to those who have so signally failed to 
fulfill their obligations, declared for the 
rural schools, with all of its shortcomings, 
in preference to those of the city and 
vigorously condemned those who would 
fasten responsibility for alleged defects 
upon the rural school teachers. No reso¬ 
lution passed without spoken evidence of 
serious consideration upon the part of 
those present and a full understanding 
of the practical problems facing those 
determined to hold, while improving, their 
home schools. M. B. d.
