The rules and regulations wei

The aim of this article is 1
call attention of school ofiice :

"Rules
Regulations" i
which a copy will be placed ;
the hands of every school dire
tor to be amended by local
rules , if necessary , and handed
to the teacher for the better and
more uniform government ol our
schools.
School otlicers have the key ,
so to speak , in their own hands
to make our schools better as to
government. They have the
authority , absolutely , to say
what shall be done and what
shall not be done , and it is one
of the duties specified by the
school laws of our state that the
county school board meeting
shall adopt rules amd regula
tions for the government of the
schools. Like any important
measure , these rules should be
carefully studied by otlicers and
teachers. We do not claim that
they are absolutely perfect , still
we assure you they were not
formulated in a hurry. They
will suggest in advance the prin
cipal requirements that should
e maintained for every school ,
The idea that a teacher should
> e compelled to take up the re
sponsibility of school govern
nent without stipulated author ,
ty and await the approval 01
linapproval of any or all acts ol
discipline , is the greatest bar
rier to successtul school man
agement. The approved stand
ard should be known in advance
Then the teacher can work au
thoritatively and advisedly or
the fundamental requirement !
that should be in every school
The teacher can go into hei
school room each day , knowing
that she has the authority o
the school board in tangibh
shape , and that they are bourn
to her by having their stipu
lated approval in advance. 1
is a well known fact that th <
great majority of failures ii
school government is caused bj
the lack of stipulated authority
from the proper source bcinj.
stamped in the schoolroom.
All but forty-one of the teach
ers of Richardson county hav <
been in the work less than thrci
years. Last year we had thirty
four beginners , this year wi
shall have forty-two. In man ]
cases they are too young to bi
of the best type of teachers , bu
w e must have them. Eacl
teacher must teach Ii i s firs
school. These beginners an
conscientious young people
eager and anxious to do the !
best and they need the besto
help and backing. They neet
to know assuredly , that the ;
will have the support of thi
school boards. If they be pu
off in a general way with tin
familar , "We'll stand by you , '
they are left alone in their im
mature judgment as to good am
bad points of government. The ;
have no specific standard o
authority given them , and ar
really at sea without compas
or rudder. No wonder man
young people make partial u
total failures , we arc plendini
in their behalf , and yet we fet
that all teachers stand in ncc
of specific authority.
Of course , many teachers hav
succeeded without any specif ]
cations , and yet they hav
followed very closely every nil
adopted by the county. If the
had had them at times , the
would ha"e felt more secure i
"getting the school again lie *
year. " Such teachers' sueoes

upon superior judgment and
strong personality. These ar
not common gifts to all teacl
ers. Hence , in the absence c
these personal qualities , sue

Market Letter.
Cansas Oity , Mo. , Aug. 14 , ' 05 ,
Cattle receipts were the heav
es t of the season last week , at
0,500 , including 10,000 calves.
Prices weakened from day to
lay , although all the packers
bought liberally ; local concerns
got 40,000 cattle , also a redord
or them this season. Country
lemand for stockers and feeders
vas good the first of the week ,
but the market for them flat-
cned out after Tuesday , and
closed the week 25 to 40 cents
ower. Although the corn crop
s made in this territory , it is
yet a little too early for feeders
, o have completed all the ar-
anircments for feeding. On the
ither hand , the stuff from the
ange country is coming two
weeks earlier than last year ,
which leaves the stocker and
"eeder market suffering both
from lack of demand and from
over-supply just now. For this
reason a good many believe that
the present time is the low time
of the season for stockers and
feeders.
Supply of cattle today is
19,000 head , market steady to a
little lower on all kinds ; desira
ble stuff selling iirst at about
steady prices. Top on beef
steers in a week is $5.50 ; good
dry lot steers $4.90 to 5.40 ; best
wintered westerns $4.85 to$4.05 ;
medium ones , 18.75 to $4,25.
Best heifers are scarce , at $4.60
to$4.80tair ; to good she stuff
$2.25 to $8.25 , against $2.85 to
$8.05 a week ago ; canners about
like a week ago , * 1.75 to $2.20 ;
veals 50 cents lower , $4.50 to
$5.25. Very few feeders sell
above $4.00 , most sale of stockers -
ers at $2.50 to $8.75 ; feeders
$8.25 to $4.00 ; stock cows and
heifers $2.00 to $2.75 ; calves
$2.75 to $4.00
Hog prices made a net gain of
15 cents last week , on account
of the extremely small run of
20,000 here , and light receipts
at all the markets. Weights
around 200 pounds sell best , and
heavy lard hogs are the hard
est to move , at 10 or 15 cents
below the top. More heavy
hogs are coming each week.
Market is 5 to 74 higher today ,
top $0.22J , highest this year ,
bulk of sales 10.10 to $0.20.
Sheep and lamb prices went
up another notch last week and
are higher again today. Most
of the stuff is Westerns , sales of
which were made today at the
following prices : Lamb. , $0.75 ;
yearlings , $5.50 ; wethers and
yearlings ewes at $5.00 ; and
ewes at $4.50 , all of these prices
the highest since the recent
brealc. Stock and feeding
wethers cell at * 4.25 to $4.35 ;
ewes around $3.75.
