It is now the time of year for farmers to consider the matter of sending their sous mid daughters to school dining the coming winter, and the editor of this paper feels like giving a little ad vice on this point. We are a s aiinch friend of the pub lic echools but their work is general, and what most boys and girls need is a course iu business. If they are to re main on the farm they certainly need it, and if they seek a position in t e city they must have It. There are several good HusinesN Colleges iu tho West, but all things considered, wo believo tho Grand Is land liiisiuess ami Normal College of Grand Island, Nebraska, o Iters more advantages than can bo found olswhero. This school is particularly strong iu securing positions- for its graduates and those who want to be sure of employ ment will regard this an important point. Tho expenses aro very reason able and students are not required to day for same until they have time to graduate and earn tho money.
