School Notes


This is the closing week OF the
first term of school 1928. Inc
school year is divided into two
equal terms and promotions are
made at the end of each term. on
thursday and Friday final exami-
nations will be held. On Monday
students will enroll for the sec
ond term. High school students
will meet their class teachers for
individual personal conference on
Monday. Certain teachers are
chosen to confer with definite
groups OF students, to study their
needs and to help them choose the
studies they should have. These
teachers are available throughout
the year as advisers to their spec
ial groups Students and their
advisers have considerable latitude
in choosing studies, the basis of
classification of Chicago university
being accepted as standard. The
new Chicago standard is being
widely adopted by colleges and uni
as the basis of admission of high
school graduates. 1t requires of
every high school student three
years of English. 1t makes a sec
ond definite requirement of three
years of work along the line of the
students greatest interests. and
a third requirement of two years of
work along secondary lines. This
leaves eight years of high school
work that may be chosen freely
from any work that may be offered,
in all 16 years or credits being re-
quired. BY a year is meant work
along one line for one year. A
student usually carries four lines
of study or four years work in one
year. Students In the beginning
freshmen class will be classified
FL. Freshmen, first semester, or
F2. Freshmen, second semester.
and other classes will be classified
in like manner, the entire school
being graded on the semester or
half year plan.
Four debating teams of six
members each have been organized
in the high school. The commission
form of government will be used by
all these teams as a debate sub
ject Literary societies and de-
batting clubs are invited to meet
any of these teams.
Primary school children, 6 years
of age or older will be admitted to
the first grade beginners class
until February LIST The best time
to enter in any department of the
school is next Monday.
The musical organizations OF
the high school and the public
speaking class will give an enter
tainment Thursday evening. Jan
uary 23d at the high school audi
torium. This entertainment will
be composed of numbers showing
the regular work of the school in
these departments and every pat
ron of the school should be pres
ent to enjoy it. 1t will be reg
ulation half dollar entertainment
but it will be entirely free and
everyone is invited.

Now that he is waking up to the
necessity Of restoring to the land the
Iertllity which single cropping has
taken, he Is in fit frame of mind to
hear what any man has to say who
has the seal Of authority.
Great results should be obtained

the South during the next few years.

The basis Of prosperity in the South
is agriculture-rather we should say
cotton. 1t ought to be general a,gri-
culture. It will have to be If there
is going to be real agricultural prog

the big money crop, but it will be the
bigger because Of the practice Of gen.

a fact, it is not of vital Importance
that every means for disseminating
agricultural information be given all
necessary public support?
Quick and Positive Returns,
An Illustration of what a farm dem
onstration can do in a few years Is
afforded in Pike County by Victor L.
Collier who took up farm demonstra-
ton agents work in 1909. His first
act was make a canvass of the coun-
ty to see what percentage of home
supplies were being produced by the
farmers. He found that vast
amount Of money was going away
from home that could be kept there
Consequently he began a systematic
campaign among the farmers to grow
more food stuffs. He instructed, en-
couraged, assisted.
To determine what changes had
taken place during the four years with
respect to producing home supplies,
Mr.. Collier recently addressed lead
ing merchants Of the county a num-
Der of inquiries The answers, in
dicted the progress which has been
made in eliminating some of the "out
go" of Pike County.
1t seems from these reports that
feed stuff bills which Western farm
ers formerly held against the Pike
County farmers, has been reduced
nearly 100 per cent. The dealers
claim that practically all of the feed
stuff they handle is bought from To-
cal farmers.

I at this time.
BY JUDGE F. J. MARSHALL.

What a common thing It is at this
season Of the year to hear persons
complain that number of their hens
seem out of condition.; that they are
found sitting around under the bushes
and trees, and do not lay: that their
combs are pale and shrunken; and
their favorite male bird is not him
self
This condition is strange to the I'M
observing. But il is perfectly natu-
raj in this season. Fowls are pass
ing into the moult, a condition which
lowers their vitality. Their circula-
ton is not strong enough to put good
red blood into the combs, hence the
pale, limp appearance of that part of
the fowl, which is but a barometer of
the whole fowls condition.
All the blood and energy that can
be mustered is going into the furnish
ing of the new coat of feathers. This
means a great strain upon all the
vital forces of the fowl In the wild
fowls the process of moulting covers
a long period of time.
Mounting Comes Gradually.
As a rule, they lay but one clutch
of eggs and hatch them, running with
them all through the season, and the
moulting comes gradually, the birds
losing but a feather or two at a time
But man, in his work of forced egg
production, forces the hen to lay as
soon as possible. AS a result, many
of the hens which have been heavy
layers go into moult in a state Of
semi collapse from the long contin-
ued strain. Many a good hen is not
able to stand the strain of the moult,
as it comes right after the greatest
laying season of the year.
For this reason many an owner is
called upon to mourn the loss of a
number Of his good hens. The fowls
have been fed to their capacity for
months to get the increase in egg pro-
duction.
When this moulting comes it is
folly to keep up heavy feeding. The
hen is in no condition to take. care of
il, and may die of indigestion before
she really gets into the moult. Mat
terial aid can be rendered in this
moult by judicious feeding Cut
down all grain food to one meal a day
and that at night. Omit all mashes
and animal foods of all kinds.
Green Food Proper Diet.
Give them all the good green food
they viii eat-in fact, the more the
better. Have it of appetizing kinds.
so they will get a good deal of it.
1t may consist of cabbage, lettuce,
beets, etc, all of which would be the
better for being run through a grind
er of some kind.
1t may be a regular root cutter a
bone grinder or anything that will
shred 1t up in a palatables condition.
About three times a week feed wheat
bran slightly moistened with cold
water or sweet milk, feeding just as
much as they will clean up with a
relish.
Keep up this method of feeding for
about two weeks and a half or until
the old feathers begin to fall out
freely, when the tactics should be
changed to an opposite kind of food
It should consist of good, rich
mashes with plenty Of beef scraps

oouragement as he considers necessa-
ry That he can do this better than
the school teacher or the country
superintendent under whose direct
authority the clubs have been organ
lied, is self-evident. Perhaps the
best arrangement yet devised for the
direction Of the farm demonstration
agents is that which applies in Geor-
gia where the agents have headquar-
tiers at the State College of Agricul-
ture and from which direction is CIV
en- in a cooperative way by the Fed
eral as well as the State authorities.
In the college also centers the corn
clubs and the girls clubs. From the
college also emanates the farmers in
stitutes. BY thus o-ordinating and
cooperating the forces of agricul
tural extension, the most can be ac-
complished for the money spent.
Some Important Prescriptions.
Some of the most important mes
sages which the farm demonstration
agents are now carrying out to the
farmers of the South, are deep plow-
ing in the fall and turning under
stalks rather than piling them up to
burn. They advise turning into the
soil all the vegetable matter possible.
before planting Is urged. After plant
ing and even before the sprouting of
the grain, the demonstration agents
are keeping the crust broken to con-
serve the moisture in the ground. AS
soon after a rain as 1t is possible to
get into the field ana work the ground,
they advise stirring the crust to break
up the capillary opening through
which the sun is sucking the mois-
ture.
They advise shallow and frequent
cultivation of corn and cotton. This
means cultivators, weeders, harrows.
1t means doing the work four or five
times more quickly and better than
using the old-time plow
To use machinery on the farm, 1t
Is necessary to get stumps out Of the
field and dynamiting stumps is stres.
sed. Growing legumes such as cow
peas soy beans, velvet beans, clover,
alfalfa, vetch and the like is proba-
bly, urged more than any other crop
because Of their great value as soil
builders
Live stock comes in for strong en-
phasis, not only for beef growing and
dairyin" but for farm power for pork
production, etc. They advise a sys-
tenn Of crop rotation that the farm
most needs.
They encourage fruit growing,
trucking. In fact, the demonstration
agent is supposed to agitate and en-
courage Improvement in agriculture
wherever there is need Of it. It goes
without saying that there is work of
this kind to do anywhere one may
go in this country.

lcalIy carried forward. splendid re-
suits will follow the prompt and sat
istactory mOult, and you can be sure
OF a good egg production in the fall if
you care to keep up the battle.
Give Hens Rest.
II you are running a commercial
egg place or want to get all the eggs
you can, regardless of consequences.
that is what you want to do; but If
you are breeding for selling stock and
eggs for Matching. and these are the
hens you are wanting to breed from
the following spring, give them all the
rest they will take in the fall, which
will fit them for the very best that is
possible in the spring when you most
need them.
Now, if you are not prepared or
willing to carry this plan forward to
the letter, steer clear Of the whole
thing and let matters take their
course. 1t is advisable to keep all
males away from the females at such
a time as both will do much better
for the change.
little iron tonic is a good thing
to keep before them at this time of
the year, whether you are doing the
systematic moult or not. 1t will help
to tide them over in good shape.
The formula is as follows: Dissolve
eight ounces of sulphate of iron in a
gallon jug of soft water letting it
stand "a hours; then add one-half
ounce of sulphuric acid. Shake well,
and it is ready for use. Use about
tablespoonful of the mixture to a
quart of drinking water.
1t will bear repeating. Watch care
fully the grain you are feeding at this
season of the year. We say at this
season for the reason that during hot
weather all kinds Of grain is more
easily moulded than at any other
time. In fact. If there is the least
bit of dampness that comes against
it, it is ready to do the act on first
impulse. When grain Of this kind is
fed, it will cause bowel trouble soon
er or later among the hens, and soon
er with the young chicks. Avoid it II
possible. Smell is the best way to de-
tect it.
