There is some opposi- tion to the country high schools, un- der state aid, for the fund comes directly from the common schools. Many county school men claim their schools would be improved by a re- peal of the act appropriating the fund, and it is sure that fight will be made on the bill at the next session of the legislature, but those who favor the bill do not fear the outcome.

He found the land almost barren, but he has since . worked it up to the point where 1t will produce two bales of cotton per acre, and will devote a consid- erable time in the future to the growing of the staple. The improve ment in the land was made entirely with crop rotation.
 Nance planted oats and peas for the first two years and made more money out of the peas than he would cut of cotton. The third year he raised corn and peas, and the next year he raised oats, peas and rye.
 The renter has continued to be a renter all this time, although he made good money each year, but ex- pended it all on the education of his children. Nance is now prepar- ing to buy a farm of his own, but he has made the land on which he is residing too valuable to pur- chase.
