SCHOOL CHILDREN TO

COMPETITION BEING CONDUCTED 5
SUPERINTENDENT NUETzMAN...l50
BOYS ENTER.

Last year the county commits
sioners appropriated a small sum

contest limited to school children
Some time ago Superintendent
Nuetzman approached the present
board on the subject and while
they took no official action indicat-
led their willingness to support
such plan another year to the ex-
tent of appropriating small
amount for that purpose. Mr..
Nuetzslaan has therefore gone ahead
and the interest shown by school
boys indicates that it will be a big
contest this year. Applications to
enter the contest have been receiv
ed by approximately $50 boys. to
each of whom enough seed has
been sent to plant one-eighth OF all
acre.
The conditions are that not less
than one-eightll of All acre be
planted and cared for by the boy
himself. In fact when he returns
samples of the fruits of his industry
upon the date to be fixed later i'll
the fall, he will be required to
make certificate to that effect.
The work of each individual COM
petitor is to be Judged by ten ears
of what he considers the best in his
little field and the prizes are to be
awarded by as good experts as can
be secured for the inspection OF
such samples.
1t is true that the prizes are not
as yet very large. being $40 for
first, SIS for second and ST each for
the following ten best samples Dut
this feature of the situation has not
lessened the interest of those who
entered, in the final outcome of the
contest. In keeping with the in
genuity of the average American
boy he has probably figured out
other ways in which he may re-
ceive money returns, such for in
stance as exacting promise from
his father to be allowed to sell the
corn that he has thus tended as his
own; the possibility of selling seed
from corn that has taken one of the
prizes, and the real satisfaction the
boy can rightfully feel in having
won a prize.
The real benefits Of such contests
are many. 1t stimulates the early
interest of the boy in practical
