TEACHING OF AQRICULTDRE.
The Value of the Work ta the.
Schools I* Bxptelaid,
crr"
,^5|.
E. davenport, dean aricT direc­
tor of the IJlinois College of Agricul
ture, gives some of the neasons why
agriculture should be taught in the pub
lic schools as follows:
1. To instill love and respect for land
and the occupation of agriculture.
2. To instill a respect for industry in
general.
3. To cultivate the activft and crea
tive instinct. ij'(
4. To give practice atW -experience
in success and failure.
5. To connect the school with real
life.
6. To stimulate and train: the powers
of observation. Other good reasons
are given with elaborations of each and
we wish our readers could read all of
this excellent article. Professor Dav
enport concludes as follows:
''The day is not far distant when we
shall memorize less and teach more, as
childhood pusses'-into youth, and the
day is here when the teacher will study
closer all the phases of life as he at
tempts to 'hold the mirror up to na
ture' for the guidance of the young.
There is an era of common sense ahead
regarding the industries of Tife, partic
ularly agriculture,.-as they shall be
viewed from the school-window, and it
shall then be considered that the school
house door leads up to all the occupa
tions of men that are useful and that
require thought for their doing. For
all these reasons, and many others
should agriculture be taught in our pub
lic schools—as much for the sake of the
schools and the public as for the sake
wf.ftgJMcjutture,"

PAVING AT GRAFTON.
,V,i3 v"
Record: In anothef coUmm
there appear^ the notice of a meeting of
the city council to' be held Monday,
Nov/16, for tne purpose of ascertain
ing the sentiment ot property holders on
the question of paving certain streets
in the city. If the property holders are
with the officials the contract for paving
will be let and all arrangements will
be made to begin work in the spring. It
is hoped that every property holder in
the city will be present because the fu
ture growth of the city depends to a
great extent on the outcome of the
meeting. If Grafton is going to keep
her place among the progressive cities
of the state she must wake up and do
something to make her streets fit for
an ordinary vehicle to travel upon. The
poor streets of Grafton are the first
thing mentioned by strangers after visit
ing the city. Up to the present time
there have been good reasons for not
"paving bat the time ha# come when the
improvement should be made. It
may be objected that paving is expei
sfve. Paving is expensive when viewed
from, one standpoint, but it must be
remembered that with the improvement
in our streets,
vother
improvements will
come and people who heretofore have
not visited the city will visit the city
and do business here. People judge a
city to a great extent by the appearance
of its streets, .li our streets and our
sidewalks, are gy*od, strangers naturally
infer that ihe city is prqsfgepaus and if
they are looking, for a location our city
wilt stand a much: better dmtice of
ing considered. Let everyone tHta,
who has tfce future growth and prqa^
perity of our city at heart, put h£s
prdval to the propositio nto fiM* Our,

^oito£ on Don, Russia, Oct. 17—To
The Fortim: The .sea of Azov always
has seemed to me to be one of the outer
most comers of the globe, and yet here
we are this morning at the point where
the Don flows into the sea, with an elec
tric car running every two minutes be
fore the hotel and all the bustle and ac
tivity of an American city. •,
There are no traces at all to remind
qne that this region was the seat of. one
of the most ancient civilizations of the
world, that the Greeks made settlements
all along the coast and carried on a big
trade by way of the Bosphorus.
At St. Petersburg, in the Hermitage
Mpseum, we saw- a wonderful collection
of vases, gold and silver urns, and jewel
ry dug up from Kertsch, not far south
of here. Many of the gold chains, ear
rings and brooches showed the finest
workmanship, and some of our best mod
ern designs are evidently copied from
them. The Russian papers had an ac
count the other day of some new treas
ures just dug up between here and Odes
sa. :.
Rostof itself is about the size of Min
neapolis. with climate hearty like
We hapened to be in Cliarkov for two
religious holidays coming one directly
after the other. These holidays are quite
an inconvenience for any one who ex
pects to do any business as all the shops
close and everything is suspended' fqr
the day. There are usually four or five
such days in a month, so witji the Sun
days one has to make allowance for
irutch tijne in order to accomplish any
thing.
Sept. 30 (old style) seems to be de
voted to the Holy Mother, and at Char
kov on that day a sacred ichon of the
Holy Mother is carried in the proces
sion from some monastery outsjde of
the city into the cathedral. April 30, ev
ery spripg, it is, carried back again.
We Had noticed and wondered at the
crowds of peasants flocking into the city
all-the previous day. Women as well as
men wore most of thetn ragged, dir*v
sheepskin coats with old boots on their
bare feet and carried a heavy stick to
walk with, besides the pails on iheir
backs containing provisions for the jour
ney and perhaps something to sell. they
come in generally in bands of twenty
or thirty, sometimes the entire population
of a village,-having walked .four or, five
days,' sleeping on the ground anywhere
in the and cojd.
On. tne morning, that the procession
took place the streets were crowded,
rows deep-, with the peasants standing
from early in the day until 4 o'clock. In
the center of the streets, at intervals,
l^w platforms covered vfith caroet were

!that
of Washington. The streets are broad,
cobble-stoned, with a wide boulevard
flanked by two rows of trees. It has a
fine postoffice, as well as very good ho
tels. and the general* tone is much more
cosmopolitan than the most of Russian
cities. There is a good deal of German
spoken here, and last evening we met
two gentlemen from New York in the
hotel dining room. Some one has spoken
of it as the "Chicago" of Russia, con
trolling as it does the trade of the Don
and Volga Rivers and much of the Cau
casus. besides having its connection with
the Black Sea. It is the center of a great
grain, district, with the steppes of the
Don to the north and the Caucascus to
the south, where also coffee, tea and cot
ton plantations are conducted with
much success. Russia has put a high
duty 011 tea and will soon be able to sup
ply her own demand, which is enormous
as it is the national drink and one Can
not conceive without being here of the
amount used. All the large business
firms keep a person to serve tea at jany
hour of the day to any of the empldyes.
Northwest of here toward Char*Av.
are extensive steel and iron works we
could see the many buildings as we ckrne
through on the train.
Coming south this time from Mospaw
we made but the one stop at Charlf^* a
little over half way. It is an impo^nt
interior city, the center of a good stock
region, and has just closed its annual
stock exhibition. The weather was Very
uncomfortable there, cold and drizzling.
In fact in cold weather over here one
is always more comfortable in the north
down here they are so unaccustomed to
starting fires, they only do it as a last
resort. We had snow irt Moscow Oct.
10 and there is a bracing cold wind, here
today, Which they tell us. is.» exceptional
at this time of the year. ®1

walked the bishop of the cathedral and
the governor ot the ei^r, the latter car
rying the sacred'ichon. The ichon with
the frame was only about a foot squane
and one could not see in the crowd any
of the detail. These ichons are all Sizes
and are valued a great deal on account
of some association'connected with them,
either personal or the location from
which they Originally came, etic. For
instance, the ichon which formerly be
longed to Peter the Great is now sup
posed to possess great healing powers
and the little chapel in St. Petersburg
where it is placed is the gathering place
of many pilgrims daily. The ichons
themselves are simply a colored picture
of some Saint, the virgin, or Christ, gen
erally covered with either a gold^pr sil
ver ornamental plate leaving openings
for the face and hands to be seen. The
most sacred of the ichons are framed
in heavy gold set with precious stones,
so that their value, in some of the
churches is enofriious. Cheaper ones
are in every house, in fact in every room
of the house, in all the offices and of
course in all public places.
As the procession passed the various
churches, a short service was held after
the manner of the Greek Church. The
whole thing lasted not more than an
hour, then the crowd began to disperse
and the peasants scattered to begin their
long march homeward. Prematurely old,
wrinkled and brown, the women are th«
heads of the family and appear to have
the stronger faces. They carried the big
ger packs in many cases had a man to
pull along who after the services had
indulged too freely in vodka. In fact,
the moral influence of the day does not
seem to have penetrated very deeply. It
is but a break in a terrible monotony.
After seeing so mlich, the upper ex
treme as well as the lower, we are com
ing back to America with a feeling of
thankfulness for many things, our free
education hand in hand with freedom
of religion, and a faith that America's
common sense will keep her from drift
ing into many of the evils of these older
European countFies.
From here we go south into the Cau
casus to Novorossisk on the Black Sea,
and thence by boat via Sebastopol" to
Odessa, then to Vienna and London.
THE TOREADOR.
ere is anything in this town that
Jefferson De Angelis wants—it's his
for the asking. He made the biggest
hit at the local theatre last night that
has been scored in a long time. His
work as a comedian is original and
there's never a dull moment when he's
on.
His company was anexceptionally
well balanced organization. There
were no striking stars, but there were
fortunately no weak spots. Edgar
Norton divided honors With Mr. De
Angelis in the comedy role as the En
glish dude. He gave the cleverest con
ception of the character ever witnessed
here and is a comedian of, exceptional
merit.
What the music lacked in being
"catchy"' was made up for in the snap
atid go that abounded in the produc
tion. There was something good at
all stages. Mws McKinney sang '"The
Language of the Flowers" sweetly and
the soiig and dance turn by Mr. De
Angelis and Miss Burd was a mirth
provoking affair.
The chorus was wel Itrairied, beau
tifully costumed and many of the girls
were really preety.
There was a good audience arid Che
encores were pumerous.

Nearly all the farmers now have tele
phones and many live long distances
from the postoffice. If we had a sys
tem whereby the ppstmaster or his
clerk could read the, letter over thft
phone to the man in the country he
could have his reply ready by the time
the rural mail carrier came along, so
he would enjoy almost the same ad
vantage as the man in the city. I think
wc could have a series of special
stamps for the purpose that would des
ignate how many words should be read
over, the phone. This could be done
at a comparatively small cost to the
regretted
public ^nd it need not eventually tie a
burden to the government.".
There is something decidedly pro
gressive in this and it seems to be tht
one thing needful to complete tht
farmer's domestic joys. It will be tht
cap sheaf added to electric roads, tele
phone lines, the general rural deliver)
and other inventions of recent yean
that have done so much to bring tht
farmer in touch with air the luxutie
of the highest civilization, while abol
ishing that isolation formerly urge
as the chief objection t6" life in\th
