To ascertain tne correctness ot tnis theory a series oi experiments was made by tne Bureau oi Animal lnaustry ot tlie Unitea states Department of Agrf cuiture at tiie experimental dairy farm at Beitsviile, Md.

WHAT WILHOT IS DOING The end of the fall term of school at Wilmot marked the best aver age attendance of any previous year. Notwithstanding we were held in check by many diseases and hindrances, viz: mumps, mea sles, chichen-pox, diptheria sc? rlet fever and pneumonia, and outside of this three of the students had the misfortune of getting their arms broken which held them out of school some but neither oJL which received the woun 1 at school. The average daily attendance for the year was seventy-one 71), llie best of any previous year was sixty two (62). This and this alone speaks for .Wilmot that they are not dead to the cause of education, but this should only be a beginning of their strife to overcome the hab it of non mental cultivation. The following are the names of those who came every day, were not tardy any morning and made an average daily grade of ninety (90) or above: Fourth Grade: Stellie Holcomb average daily grade 91; Clinton En sley, average daily grade 93; Lucy Ward :92 Bonnie Ward, average daily, grade 91; Montgomery Ward, average daily grade 90.- Sixth Grade: May Brown, aver age daily Grade 90. Seventh Grade: Vera Moody, average daily grade 96 1-2.
