The Importance Of these railway

new government has planned the de-

try which is ten times as big as. New

above mentioned is the Chester rail-
way concession. which hes teen grant

awaits the ratification Of parliament.
This involves the building of 1900
miles Of new lines covering the richest
parts Of Armenia, kurdiStan and Mo-
sui. and embracing the upper port ons
Of Mesopotamia. The road will begin
at the Mediterranean and will run
across Asia Minor TO Persia, with nu-

EDUCATION AND PROFITS.

This is the title OF a paragraph in

Gently issued, entitled. Notes from
the Agricultural Survey OF Tompkins

interest on the capital invested. etc,
was determined. This labor income"
represents the income received by the
farmer for his own labor. outside the
interest he receives on his investment
Many interesting and valuable facts
OF great economic Importance were
brosght oct by this study, but prob
ably none we're OF more Importance
than the figures showing the relation
OF the education of the farmer to his
prosperity.
Ceredo advance. [volume] (Ceredo, W. Va.) 1885-1939, 1911-10-04

Here is what the bulletin says.
"Of the owners, those who went only
70 district school made an AVERAGE
labor income Of $3fs; those who went
to high school made s622; and the
farmers who had more than high
school education made an AVERAGE Ia.
Dor income Of ss47. A hiah.schooI ed.
ueation is worth as much to farmer
as $4,000 worth Of per cent bonds"
Unfortunately the bulletin states
that the proportion Of farmers with
high school education t. no larger
among the younger men than among
the older ones. This seems to indicate
that the tendency of present education
is away from the farm"
These conditions and tendencies are
undoubtedly as true In West Virginia
as in New York. The figures show
the value of education TO the farmer.
The value Of an agricultural education
should be even greater, which has
been proven by the thousands OF
young men who have taken modsrs
courses in agriculture.

The Baltimore & Ohio furnished a
private car for the comfort of the
workers. so that they were able to live

on this train by sending the expert
packers into the orchards to train the
packers just how to grade and pack
