Oilv 50 cenLt-. A MlisutiderstaWtlting. .'me papers b.ve' ba e;v muddled the question cf securing more founds for the public schoo's of this State. They seem to mix up the big State: schools with the ptillec schools pro.' pir. and look upon an etfort to secure more revenues for the latter as a threat to decrease the amounts allowed for the maiotsinance of the former. It does not appear to us that any thing of the kiud is proposed. No man at all familiar with the etluca tional system of this State woun;d venu Store to urge a reduction in the appro. priations made for the maintenance of the Univers:ty, the Normal andlo the iudust ia s.:hioo:. To urge such a nIea.re wouid I,º simply to des troy the very trunk of tdlcsation in Loui,iana in the vain attempt to f. ed the withering limbs. Meu interested in educational matters view with pleasure the rapid growth of these fine schools. They witness their ex pansion with pride, rchbing in all directions and sowing broadcast the seeds of higher education. Men who study the situation do not wish to see thebce noted schoo:s hurt or neglected, hand they will be the first to suggest I increased appropriations by the Gen eral Assembly to cover their. needy and made more effctive their work. But at the same time is it wrong to a'k more money for the puhlic schools proper? Is at wrong to ask t the fostering care of the State for the ) little log scool houses where the thousands of poor little chi:dren re J cerve the rudiments of au education? We think not, and we cannot see where the interests of the large State schools come in confl;ct with those of ! the common district schools. There D is not, and there cannot creep in a p conflict D If, as s'zggested, the interest fund , has grown to proportions larger than p expected, would It be wrong to take I o one half, or three fourths of a mill t from this fond and transfer it to the a o educational or school fund where it is I p greatly needed, and where it will do a 0 an immense good. Certainly not o And if by lopping off a porion of I ! one fund and trsnsferiig it to anoth er, the one not being injured by the operation and the other gn stly bene- i fited, why hesitate to do so. ,t If the public s hool fund is in creased, does this neceseasily mean I the decrease of the annual appropria. I e tious made to the four or five large hype that the coming meeting of Superinteua?!nts of schools to be held in Baton Rouge w:ll make this clear and thus a;lay the apprehensions rexstiug in certain quarters. It is not a moveme-nt or a fight against the higher institutions of learning, but one in favor of the common Sashoo's, and the success of the latter will be also the success of the former, A common Interest binds them to 1e gether, to hurt the one is also to 1e injure the other. th There should not bh, nor can there She a conflict between higher and is elementary education. They are twin r. sisters, each deserving of the care of ,o the State, and aid for the one without aid for the other sh,,uld not be men ol tloned. The greater schools typify higher education, the lesser ones represent the rudiments of learning, both occupying a peculiar sphere, each with a mission to perform, and at all dear to the hearts of the people. . Strike the one and the other will feel it, hence where is the hand that would be lifted agnainst such a noble 'r. and deserving coubination.- Avoyelles r Blade.

The Des Ailemaa3s school house furnishid by the Des Allemands Lumber Co. and tendered to the Board for use as a public school building free of rent was reported to be re:,dy for occupancy. ThL contractor fur the Valere Goodry schtol house has notified the Board that he had Iehgun to build the school house for which he had been awarded the coutract The Presi,deut was authorized to make a retrcession to Mr Laurence Kraemer of the lot which he hal don ated to the Board. The Board on Finance reported that they had msade a diligent exami nation of the books of the Treasuier together with his vouchers, up to Jauuary 1st 190? and had found everything ourrect and the books neaty and accurately kept and had I ordered the vouchersiup to said date to be destroyed. They further re. commended that a quietus be granted to said Treasurer for all his transac. tions with the School Funds up to ansd including Jan. aLt 1902, which recommendation was agreed to. The special committee to examine what repairs were needed to the Guton Academy reported that they had attended to that duty and had i invited bids for the work based on specifications duly furnished. Three I ditlerent bids were submitted, and that of Mr. J. L. Prtedger, being for the sum of oce hutilied and nine dollars, anl the lowest submitted, the s contract was awarded to him. In view of the fact that Mr. Mar. f cilien Delaune ha i refused to allow the School building on land that he had purchased from Wallace Pierce to be used for -chool purposes except e upon conditions which the Board could not actet, the action of the p teacher, Mr. Joseph 4. Price in re i moving the school furniture to an. other building which he rented for s three dollars per month, in the name l of the Board was approved. I The Superintendent reported that as the Lockport School Fund Asso a ciation had refused to allow the for ther use of their building for public school purposes, he had secured the use of the hall belonging to Rev. E. A. Vigrous, free of rent for the rest of the session and had ordered the school to be opened on the day ap, pointed for the beginning of the ses ason 1902 in said building. The bill for the purchase of the necessary up plies for said tempporary school school h.,nse has already betn sub. ,mittel and approved.

Farmer's Institutea In 1901 there was appropriated by states and used in carrying on far. mer's institutes in the United States about $100,000, and more than 3000 I separate institutes were held and were attended by over 650,000 farmers. Can the reader imagine wthe total amount of good done by these instruc. I tive gatherings of progresstve far. mers, not only to those who attended I but to those who by rubbing against them acquire some of the "iniuen *e" that has been thus promotedt In all the western agricultural states and I most of the northern states tegular I and systematic institutes are held on, der state auspices and competent management, and if it costs the states a few thous and dolars per annum to carry on the meetings, they are so popular, (lecause praotab!e) that no voice Is raised is condemnation of what, in some state legislatures has been termed *"unjustifabl extrava. , gance.', Molt of those states are gradually enlarging their appropria tioDs for farmer's institutes, as in creasing public interest in the move ment demands, and rarely is any legis, i lative objection made to the appro- I I priatons. for they are looked upon in the light of proitable inoveatments.

In the meantime _he farmers who favor progress and success, thrown, upon their own re sourmes, are holding justituteswithout state aid. We believe this i" the surest way to bring toe legislature to a realising sense of its duty to agri. culture -the great iodustry that sos tains the state. Let progressive farmers in every county. or wherever a few of that sort can be found, get themselves together and organize for educational purposes. In every case where the discussions are confned to legitimate agricuatoral topics, and all distracting subjects avoided, the io erest increases, the inlueoce spreads and the example will become ono tagioos. The horticultunrsts, nur serymen, truck farmers and stock breeders, could not be induced to forego their stated meetings, which aside from the small amonut of busi ness transacted, are institutes for educational purposes. It men of these different branches should meet together then we wald have a genuine farmer's institute, where each specialist could learn from each other specialist. The staple crop farmer needs to learn from the fruit-grower, the vegetable-grower. the nursery man and the live stock breeder; and so with all the others. The more different specialists there are present the greavtr the sources of informa tion. and the greater the good accom. phlthed. Farmers who eg'ect such means of bettering their condition by extending their knowledge are not living up to their opportunities.
