Money in the Dairy Business. That there is money to be made iu the dairy business is shown by the results obtained by our old friend Sam Liudsoy. He has the cream check, which ho received for the past ten mouths, during seven mouths months of which he sold the cream from live cmv.s and the balance of the time of only throe cows, and at that his chucks foot up to more than three hundred dollars, beside which he has had cream and butter for his own family and the increase from the cows. School Methods. Switzerland, to which many point ti.s having a model government, has ideas in the conduct of public schools which might well be adopted by this country. In the city of lieriie, for instance, a permanent exhibition for school hygiene lias been established. In the city of Hasei the hi bora 1 School union has adopted a resolution doinan ing obligatory instructions in swim ming for upper classes of the public schools, the erection of school sanitar iums and tho completion of an insti tute for school physicians. Much one of those improvements moans that Switzerland is taking care of the bodies, as well as tho minds of the children of that country. Kaeh one means that instead of pushing the childien through their hooks, orov ding them from grades high school as rapid ly as possible and high .school into tilt ing world, care is taken of their physi cal well'aio. of their general health, comfort and safety. Switzerland 'sovi dent purpose is to give to the world young men and women who are well rounded iu something beside algebra and geography The natural hurry up methods of America mark our school work. Too much attention is paid to the. task of making graduates and too little to the infinitely greater and more impnrtaut' duty of making men and women. Perhaps we may borrow some of the Swiss ideas. I5y all means lot u-. absorb a higher re gurd for the boys and gods than we possess now. Unooln Star. Wo. wonder what would happen if tho .school board of lted Cloud should attempt such improvements iu school methods, even if we had plenty of room iu the school building. Would not Some one circulate a "petition protest ing" against the hno.vrio.N. of improve ments, or tint enforced baths? Or would there be found enough public spirited citizens to purchase thu bonds soi that even a much smaller improve, monts muy he made whether the Location suits them or not'.'

Monday afternoon at I lie nay was rather cold, and the sky clouded, making it an ideal day for a football game. boul three hundred spectators witnessed the game. Music was furnished by tho Citizen's Concert baud. The high school got the Icic'volV and the game commenced. I hiring the tirst half neither side scored, nor made any decided advance, the high school boys surprising everybody by their ability to hold their heavy opponents. Tho second half was much harder fought. ! Some disputed points left the final out come In doubt in the minds of many of this spectators, oven ufter the game was over. The score was ollicially given after the game as .' to 0 in favor of the business college, but this was later amended to 0 to 0, on account of what was at first called a safety play by Henry Pharos fortius high school hnv- ing been a touchback. The game was spoiled for the spectators by an almost continuous rag chewing performance.

The state railway commission has ruled against the proposed discontinu ance of the present night schedules of long distance telephone wires. In Kansas and Iowa the companies recently abolished the night rates and made the day rates apply to all long distance service.
