The agricultural college is trying to
help the farmer. Prof H, M. Cottrell
one of it's faculty, has written pam
phlet on milo maize, recommending it
for semi=arid farmers. This pamphlet
Is widely distributed, some through
the schools.
Last report from the Harmon school
which closed Feb. 1st, was late but it
reported Willie Hunter and Roy Har-
mon; having been neither absent nor
tardy. 1t was reported also that at
the school house not long ago, pro-
gram and pie social was held. The pro-
gram was entertaining and the social
a success. $42.75 was realized from
the sale Of pies, the funds to be used
for school purposes. This 10 commend
able. 1t shows that patrons and citizens
are interested In aiding the schools.
This is the third social for school pur-
poses reported this year, and next
Week we expect to report two more.
For the last School month in the Bos-
ton school; Capitola, Eden, Mabel,
Lizzie and Lena Konkel, Eottie and
Tena Bepel were neither absent nor

Birdie Thompson is teaching in Kan
sas, this year, and likes her school.
She has "a pupils enrolled.
For the last school month In the vi
las school, Laura, Nathan Rollo, Ora
and Alva Amrifie were neither absent
nor tardy.
During the last school month eight
visitors were registered at this school;
and that is good record. We have
complained about parents and patrons
not visiting school and teachers have
complained to us; SO we are very glad
to report this of Villas.
AS formerly planned, the Springfield
teachers selected a library for the
school, ordered 12 volumes, some books
for each grade, and recently installed
them. They are pleased With them.
The binding is good and attractive;
many books were taken out the first
week. The books were paid for out of
the pie social fund, and this is COM
mendable. Springfield has hever had
library-or not recently, we are sure.
This will do much good. Supplement-
