TALK TO FARMERS.
TIL eAdvice of Mr.. j. Il. Craig is to

To the Editor of The News
There is lot of talk now about
the condition of our country. Tne
war in Europe it seems has struck
our Southland a hard lick. Cotton,
our main money crop, it seems, is
hit the hardest There is more talk
and writing about this one crop than
have ever seen. There is lot of
advice being given to us to go into
other crops, etc, and / wish to say
few words or give some of nay eXper-
ience, | have always stuck to the
plan of making food stuGs at home
and some for the other fellow who
has to buy Consequently my cot
ton crop is rather a side issue. 1
think l have been fairly successful
in making corn, wheat, oats, rape,
turnips and hay of many kinds.
Now / want to warn the people that
are going to try these crops that
the land must be thoroughly pre-
pared for these crops and fertilized
we'll and on good land to succeed
with them and must also be put in
at the right time. I have never
given up sowing wheat as other peo-
pie did and this year / threshed PA
bushels from 1OR acres. This

and narrowed we'll and sowed "a
bushels with 200 pounds acid. meal
and potash to the acre. In March
put 100 pounds nitroate soda to the
acre. This wheat was sowed with a
grain drill and cut with Il binder

hate to. SOW much wheat. Our Mr..
Will brennan (the binder mani was
out here and saw my wheat and
oats and he told me he lad been
over the county a lot putting up
binders and the best grain he saw
was all sowed with grain drill. i
told him that I had been on trip
and that was just the way l viewed

Nc same for their grain they will
succeed with it. This one thing is
what prompted me TO write this
letter.
Another thing / would like to coll
attention to is sowing grass and

THE DEDICATION EXERCISES
ONE THOUSAND PEOPLE ATTEND
ED PROGRAM IN NEW HIGH
SCHOOL FRIDAY NIGHT

One Of the largest audiences ever as
sembled in one building in this city
gathered last Friday evening in the
auditorium of the new high school to
hear the dedicatory exercises. The
seating capacity Of the spacious room
is 600 and it is estimated that with
all extra chairs and seats which were
put in for the occasion, and with those
in the halls, 1000 people heard the
program.
The program, although quite long,
was much enjoyed by the audience.
The girls glee club Of the High
school opened the program with Sc
lection from Bachmann-WOlff, which
was we'll received. This club was or
ganzed since the opening of school
last fall and their work showed ex-
cellcnt success on the part Of the lead
or, Miss Lycan, assistant principal at
the high school. Following the song
by the girls glee club, Rev. Frank At
kinson gave the invocation.
s. {. Fasaly, a member Of the board
OF education, delivered an address OH
the history Of the Little Falls public
schools. Mr. Vasaly told Of the first
pnhlic school in this city, it being
located on Broadway east near the
Broadway bridge. This school was
huilt in 1917. The second school build
building was erected at the corner of
FIRST street and Second avenue north
east, Immediately across the street
from the site of the new high school
b,,illny. Later another building called
the Little Red School House, was
erected at the corner Of Third street
and First avenue, northeast.
The first class to graduate from
the high school in this city numbered
4 students, this being in the year 1893.
St,n1c Of the members of the class still
I've in this city.
The Columbia and Lincoln schools,
the former Of which is still standing,
we're built in 1892. The latter burned
in 1902 and new building was erect
ed in it's place, Mecusker & Harrison
being the contractors. The Hawthorne
school was built in 1894.
Tn 1897 the old high school building
burned and the present Central school
was erected. In the same year the
parochial school was erected ON Fourth
street southeast. This school, the
speaker said, has saved the taxpayers
OF this city at least 100000 since it's
opening. Mr.. Vasaly also spoke Of the
Little Falls Business college as being
a valuable institution. Mr.. Willard
opened this school in 1906 with a
meager equipment, small Aoor space and
other Inconvenience but at the pres
ent time the school stands as a model
for others in this state with an equip
ment valued at $4,000 and with 5000
feet Of floor space. Mr.. Vasaly in his
remarks also mentioned the value Of
