SCHOOL NOTES

The Lamar high school has en-
rolled III pupils this year as COM
pared with 153 at the close of the
first month last year, and new
pupils are entering almost daily.
Students are enrolled from McClave
Wiley, sheridan Lake, Springfield,
Two Buttes, Villas, Kenton, ok
lahoma, and from points in the un-
ion high school district. The work
of the high school is starting out
in splendid shape. and it is believ-
ed the school will have one of the
best years in its history. A half
dozen boys could be added to the
high school enrolment tomorrow
If places could be found for them
where they could work for board
and room. Several boys already in
school are working their way by
doing odd jobs. Any one having
work that a school boy could do
out of school hours will confer a
favor by calling the high school.

Stabling for Dairy Cows

live subject for the consideration
of the farmer who is milking COWS
1t is certain that protection from

the dairy herd is to do Its best.
1t is certain, too. that the large
proportion of dairymen do not feel
able to build such stabling as they
see or read about on the best and
most up-to-date dairy farms. there
is no set rule to be made with re,-
erence to stabling. This. for the
reason that such a wide range oi
satisfactory stabling can be provid.
again that the stabling arrangement
and the cost of construction, etc.
depends wholly upon the ingenuity

near future to submit plans fol

the suitable arrangement of the
building he now has. We believe
in comfortable stabling-not from
the cows standpoint alone, but
from the standpoint of the milk

stable arranged suitably. 1t IL

must be done by the family. II the
women folks are to milk or are to
be induced TO milk comfort. con-

on the receiving side. Lamar has a
fine a body of young people as will
be found in any town in Colorado.
They deserve to have this gym
nasium. They deserve to have the
privilege of planning and building
it. What finer memorial or git
could any man of means in Lamar
make than the funds for high
school gymnasium In Lamar?
What a privilege to be mem
ber of the class that would build
it. This is not an impossible or an
improbable proposition. 1t has
been done by schools in other
towns. 1t can be done here. When
the boys come to you for your
athletic subscription this year do
not forget to put a little directly
into the gymnasium fund. and re-
member that every cent saved out
of the usual subscription will go
into the equipment for the gym

Gymnasium Plans
A number OF high school stu
dents are working on plans for the
new gymnasium. a prize being Of
fered for the best set of plans pro-
vided twenty plans are submitted.
The school proposes TO build the
gymnasium with student labor and
with funds provided in various
ways. If the funds for the lumber
and brick could be provided to-
morrow. Mr.. Clement and the boys
would be at work as soon as the
plans were prepared. For a good
many years the boys have been
asking for funds tor their athletic
activities And> -the business men
have been very liberal In support
ing them. The boys have succeed
ed each year In spending $500 to
$1,000. a sum out Of proportion 70
the tangible benefits to the school
and to the community. The feL
lows have not even lockers for foot
ball suits, or warm water for their
shower. and have SO little appar-
atus for track or gymnasium work.
that they can scarcely be said to
have made a beginning in those
lines. They have begun an entirely
new plan this year. At consider
able sacrifice of their own prefer
ence for sport. they have voted to
organize their athletics on the club
plan. cutting out most of the in
terscholastic games and encourag-
ing inter-club and inter-class games
with the purpose of interesting all
the students In some form of sport
and of saving every cent possible
to put into the building of a gym
nasium. Eighty boys are playing
soccer football, and more than sixty
girls are organized for tennis. Un-
der the club plan a regular sched-
ule of games is played, club games
being played on high school field
every Monday. Wednesday and Fri
day evening. Instead of team
of a few men monopolizing sports
of the school. every student has a
part in the athletic activities.
However. the team plan is not
entirely eradicated. Every third
month is given over to team work.
Then the coach can choose his Soc
Ger team for example out of the
eighty men who have been work
ing out in the clubb games. He has
an excellent chance to pick out a
great team and plenty of time to
develop them into winners. The
team selected in each sport will
play two games, one away from

farmers living in the Judith Gap ter
ritOry are vitality interested in, and

ed.
\ creamery established at this
point will mean permanent success
to the farmer. 1t will mean a steady
monthly cash income to I'LL who want
to engage in milking cows, raising
poultry and hogs. At the present
time there are over 200 cows being
MIXED in this Immediate territory
and it is Il hard matter to find Il
market for butter. The same is true
of poultry and eggs, while there is
very little market for hogs unless by
the carload, and very few individual
farmers care to go into hog raising

ment of II creamery, more hogs will
be raised, and the creamery can find
Il ready outlet for hogs where an in

position can he enlarged TO such an

term.
Governor TOole, the first governor
of the state, was sufficiently wealthy
to erect magnificent mansion ana

it for the use of its governors. ami

than $500 for expenses on his trips to

Montana is going to add millions Ut

SPECIAL TRAINS

With Agricultural College e.

During the past three years the rail-.
road companies in different parts Of
the country have been Swing special
attention to the running Of special
trains. These special trains are for
the purpose q giving the farmers in
formation regarding the production OF
live stock and grains Of all kinds.
Recently. in the state Of Iowa, the
Rock Island railroad equipped train
for the purpose Of giving the farmers
Information ~ regards to the raising
Of hogs. After this train had run
through a portion Of Iowa it was TAX.
On on to Nebraska, Oklahoma and
Texas. In fact the train was run
throughout the Rock Island system.
The extension department Of each Of
these states co.operated with the rail-
road and aided In making those trips
. grand success.
During the past year another train
was run in different part Of the state
Of Iowa and the lectures were devoted
to the improvement of the bacon hog.
The train was known ~ the Break

the extension department IF the Iowa
state college did most Of the talking.
Their talks were brief. concise and to

There has been considerable dts.
cussion regarding the relative merits
Of these special trains. Some people
say that it 10 not possihss for the
farmer to gain much information by
listening to lecture upon any one
topic. However. we and that these
trains are doing . wonderful amount
OF good. It may Be true that the farm.
er may not get much information from
listening to one Of these talks, but he
will bscCl nae enthused and II aDy ques-
tions come UP later he will send them

that special type Of farming.
Last June the Northern Pacific Rail

state Of Montana This trim was
taken to nearly all parts Of the coun-
try into which the Northern Pacific
lines are extended. The talRs were
along the lines of dry farming. irrisa-
