WW 'iV^ *i *«w- is sr.V '.v.: NORTH DAKOTA AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE. Department of Education. Armand D. Weeks, Professor. AN EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY. The North Dakota Agricultural Col lege at Fargo has recently establish ed a department of education for the training of teachers for superentend encies and high school positions. The purpose is to advance the type of education represented toy the Agricul tural College by supplying teachers not only 'broadly trained in science, language etc., but particularly trained in agriculture, naiture study and man ual and lnduitrial subjects and do mestic science. There is a strong popular demand for more applied science in the public schools and the industrial character of the Agricultur al College gives it a commanding place in t%is new movement in edu cation. The furthering of the appli cation of the principals of science to common pursuits is the aim of the college of agriculture and mechanic arts and the training of teachers is a step to that end. The establish ing of teachers' courses in the agri cultural colleges is authorized by act of congress. What does this mean to the young men and women' of North Dakota? It means that any person who has had the equivalent, of a high school education may receive free a four year college course leading to the degree of bachelor of science and by shaping his course so as to in •elude certain prescribed courses in pedagogy will secure a teachers ere dentials good for life, in North Da kota and quite generally elsewhere a college degree is required of the high school teacher. It is the part of wisdom for the prospective teacher to lay a founda tion ibroad enough to meet the re qiiirements of the highest education al positions. It is also the part of •wisdom' to get ready for the changes in subject matter in the public schools which are being made by the 'pres sure of modern life. The old form al, literary and disciplinary type of ptfblic school instruction will be in creasingly modified by newer Ideals. In the near future a new type of teacher will be found in the school room. The college will also offer courses in its preparatory department for el ementary school teachers. Graduates of the eighth grade may enter here and secure completion certificates for first and second grade teachers' certificates. In the meantime the student is gaining credits for college entrance. In the elementary teacher's course as much time as possible is (allotted to elementary agriculture, nature study, domestic science and {manual training. FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. The housewives know that prunes require absolutely no sweetening. If they are cooked slowly for severtl hours they become covered with a ritfh syrup and sweeten themselv«-.-?. •The flavo is also improved by this metboci of cooking. Try it. For people who live alone or for the woman who cooks for a small family of 2 or 3 great convenience is found in the new frying pan which is divided into compartments by a (partition and so makes it possible to cook two or three dishes at once and is a great saving in fuel, utensils and troubles. Alcohol 'will remove sticky fly pa per from anything. To keep meat fresh and sweet in summer lay in a pan of sour milk and put in a cool place. It takes an optimist to get more good out of a thing than there is in it. It's hard for some people to work but it is harder to. be unable to get work when one wants it. When a pessimist gets married he re a is or a By covering up their tracks some men get credit for walking in the Btraight and narrow way. SURREY AND VICINITY.

The -fi »*yi /,]*[ Qlt is pleasing as well as a heretofore unheard of in stance where our Deering ^machinery has not been im proved upon since last season. There's a reason for this and it is simply this: The Deering machinery has been perfected to such a state that it is almost next to im possible to find room for any further improvement. This is the strongest recommendation that we can give this machinery. We have already disposed of a number of mowers and rakes. We have plenty more on hand. We have just begun to set up our binders and sev eral have been spoken for. Our binder trade is sure to be big this year. Put in vour orders early. You all know what the Deering machinery is. It's durable and light running, simple as it can possibly be and will last many years if you take reasonably good care of it. We can give you the mowers or binders in auy cut you desire. We are going after our mower, binder and rake trade in just the same manner as we did the drill business. We did the biggest drill business last spring in the history of our business and we're going to eclip&e all former years in our binder and mower business. We have the goods and are ready to extend any reasonable accommodation.

BECAUSE it sets my family a good example and shows them I have their welfare at heart, by taking care of my means. BECAUSE I do not endanger the lives of my family or my own, by having the reputation of a man who keeps money in his pocket or hides it about his home. 1 beleive funds are safer in the bank than in my pocket or at home. BECAUSE It will hold me up when 1 am siGk or out of work. BECAUSE A bank account creates a desire and pride to make it as large as possible and it is wise for all of us to provide for the "Rainy Day," which comes sooner or later. BECAUSE If I pay my debts by drawing a check on the bank, the check must be endorsed before the bank will pay it, and it then becomes a legal receipt for the money paid. Ne one can claim that I did not pay them, as I can show their endorsement on the check whish paid the debt. Small accduuts receive the same careful attention that we give the large ones. Call on us.

There is the proper size machine to be had for every dairy, from that of one to one hundr or more. In this connection special atten on is called to the new smaller size De Laval machines, which are now offered for the first time, and have been designed for small family use where the milk of one or two cows only is ta be separated, and also for hotel, restaurant and city home use, where purchased milk may be creamed or clarified to advantage. These little machines do just as good work as the larger ones and will save their cost in less than a year. The prices are, of course, in keeping with the sizes of these small machines, bring ing them within the reach of all and removing all possible ob jections to the purchase of a first class separator on account of the cost. A postal card will bring our handsome new catalogue describing and illustrating these latest additions to the De Laval family. Write to-day, for every day ytfu are without a separator you suffer an actual money loss, even if you own but one cow. At least let us show you the many important De Laval improve ments that have been made. You are not obliged to buy and you'may learn something to your advantage. THE DE LAVAL SEPARATOR CO.
