ly small part of their total earnings
ior the year. The children come from
one Of the best gardening regions in
the south and their school has a
unique place in that particular COM
munity. The school has an instructor
in agriculture. who teaches three days
week and spends the other three
days in farm demonstration work, APP
plying on the actual farms of the dis
t'iCt the theory he imparts in school"
Further inquiry showed that this is
not the first time the children have
learned that intelligent farming brings
in cash return. Each student makes
regularly profit of from $25 TO 500
on the individual garden paJCn he cul-
tivates. In addition. the children help
in working a school farm, which after
paying all expenses. including the
wages Of a man who serves both as a
farm hand and school janitor, shows a
profit of about 5000 Mr. De Jarnette
is confident that with a 75-acre farm.
hich he hopes to have soon, his boys
will be able TO earn their own living
entirely while attending school
The state of Virginia is among the
rapidly increasing number of states
that are beginning TO realize the i'm
portanCe of adequate agricultural ed
ucation, and money has been appro-
priated TO aid the school There have
also been private benefactions. A new
$4,000 building is to be dedicated in
/ September and DR. ClaXton has prom
/ ised to be present at the ceremonies.
The experiment at Driver is only
one of many indications of what the
, American rural school can and should
/ do. All over the country efforts are
being made TO bring home to the
country districts the significance and
value Of agriculture. The rural school
is the essential link in the chain. and
the United States bureau of education
is endeavoring to drive this fact home
so deep IL will never be forgotten, for
the bureau maintains that the rural
school must provide the kind OF train
ing that will not only fit boys and
girls for rural life, but will serve TO
interpret life in the country so at
tIactively that when the children
grow 10 manhood and womanhood they
will be glad to remain on the farm.

ers on the November ballot.
Yesterday was the last day on
which signatures could be handed in
in time to be presented to the state

learned that approximately 10000
