week is that OF special line of study

Burr has found that during recent
years with the increasing number of
high schools that offer commercial
urgent demand for trained teachers,
both men and women, in this field.
Consequently a two year course has
been mapped out to offer a wel1-round-
ed commercial education as well as
preparation for the work of teaching.

course, aud the range of subjects in

experience. The Willimantic Normal
Training school is rather a pioneer in
the field, but the outlook is promising.
Requirements for admission to the
course are the same as to the other
courses in the school, but college and
normal school graduates will be adj
mitted to special course of one year.
Last year Principal Burr started a
course in household arts and so sat
isfactorily has this developed that this

WEEKLY LETTER OF CON-
 MISSIONER JOHN H. PAGE
Bureau of Mines. Manufactures and
 Agriculture.

The farmers waste lots of energy throughout the summer fighting grass and buying hay through the winter. For 20 years have watched the agri- cultural conditions in this State and during that period have never seen a
 surplus of hay, or a sufficiency of pas lures. It takes hard work to kill
 grass out of crop, and it takes hard
 money to buy hay. 1t would be a good Idea to compromise with the grass to some extent. Turn some of your poor land into pasture for your work stock, cattle and hogs. Set apart a field and
 pant 1t to pasture Plant it to rye, and in the early spring SOW clover, and thus get winter and summer nslure' For every thousand pounds 'u lNe stock pastured you will get an average of l200 pounds of manure on

WEEKLY REVIEW OF
 THE COTTON MARKET
Bullish Forecasts of Today's Ginning Report Help Keep Prices Up.-Weather COndi-
 tions Increase in Importance.

New Orleans, Oct. 24.-Cotton made only moderate advances last week. standing at the highest Is to 23 points over the preceding weeks close. I.i- quldation of the long account furnish ed considerable pressure at times and held the market down on the hard spots. The net change for the week was decline of 24 to 27 points. At the lowest the market was at net de- cline of 35 to 38 points.
 While toward the last of the week weather conditions were much improv- ed, crop reports continued in bullish strain. Bullish forecasts of the re- turns on ginning in the Census Bureau report to be given out tomorrow also helped to create bullish feeling.
 The spot department was closely watched by both sides, but neither the bulls nor bears derived much inspira- tion from it, for while offerings were not liberal, the demand was not con- sidered strong. The trade, however, appeared impressed by the pronounced strength of cotton seed.
 This week the market is likely to be influenced on the opening by the cen sus figures on ginning, and following them may come several important pri- vate estimates of the total crop. From now on these estimaCes will play an important part in moiding opinion.
 Weather conditions will increase in importance because of the likelihood at any time of killing frosts. The market, however, is much more sus- ceptible to bullish than to bearish weather conditions because the trade as a whole thinks it a foregone con- clusion that this is a very short crop.
 The spot situation will continue to be feature of great interest.

the land every thirty days Then turn under the manure and the green pas ture next fall, before frost, and SOW down in burr clover for a winter pas ture, and follow by blowing that under in the spring. Then you will have good land made out of poor land. Use enough of your farm that way every year to pasture your stock. As a companion to this system. grow enough hay crops to make two tons of hay per head for all your cattle and horses. Take good care of it, and bale it. In the fall blow under all the green stuff and follow with burr clov- CT, crimson clover, rye or vetch for winter pasture, and turn under again in the spring while green. This system will give you much better land on which to grow corn and cotton.

Give it space in the corn middles, along the turn-rows, and in every waste place. Fight the weeds, but compromise with the grass. Your work stock will thrive and do better if they have pasture to run on during the night in the work season. The grass they eat will take the place of corn and oats, to some extent, and re- member that stock when pastured, are gathering that much of the crop as it grows, as they need it, leaving the change" on the soil to pay for it.
 Try out this system. You will find that those who do are generally pros porous.
