More trained teachers were wanted. As a practical illustration of the value of the school house to any com- munity, he gave an instance of a district in which the school had been closed for several years owing to the small number of children at- tending: What was the. result? Farms could not be sold, hired help could not be procured.

We are spring of earth's best blood and the standard of rural character must be maintained and in order to make a country life profit- able as well as attractive, brain must take 'precedence over muscle, we must educate, utilize science and her latest methods. In a word, gain in- telligence by all the means within our grasp. The press and its many helpful phblications, the educational advantages offered by the depart- ment of agriculture, as well as the vocational training now being prae- ticed in many of our schoois.
