Not only has the Sunlight building been erected in this remark anly snort space of time, but it has also been fully rented for some weeks past. and the owners were forced to turn away a dozen or more appEi- cants. inasmuch as the Sunlight building is centrally and ideally locat- ed, being easily accessible and within few seconds walk of Franklin sdUare, the tenants have been anx- iOCsIy awaiting the opportunity Of moving i1. Even before the carpen- ters and fnishcrs had gathered up their tooIs the store tenants had started Jo move ill their furnishings and goods and for two weeks or more previous to the completion of the building Boynton Bros were busil2 engaged in erecting their lunch counter and preparing for their opening day i0 other ways.

PIGS AND HOGS.
Plans Should Be Made Fer Spring
 PAsfursae.

Any substitute which can be uxed in lessening the cost of the growing of hogs which reduces the grain bill is what every hog raisser should con slider. There are various crops which this class Of animals will use, but no better kind can be easier grown than the rape crop. Thus every hog owner should make an effort to put in a small area of land for this use. There are various kinds Of rape, but the one best suited for this section is the dwarf Essex, which can be seeded carly in the spring and will furnish pasturage in worry short time, and If properly graZed vii continue 10 do so throughcut the late fall, for after it has been grezed once 1t will grow a second time if given the opportunity. If necessary, rape can be seeded later in the summer after removing some early crop like oats and peas. It can be drilled or seeded broadcast. There is likely to foe less waste when drilled in rows 2S to So inches apart. This will LeccessitaIe cultivation once or twice to prevent the weeds from getting ahead of the crop. If drilled, three pounds to the acre is all that is necessary. IT broadcast it Is desir- able to use from four to six pounds to inc acre

THE SPRING NORMAL

The announcement that Mr.. Troy
B. Wilmoth, County Superintendent
elect of Randolph-co., will conduct a
review course for teachers in Davis
and Elkins Collegs, beginning March
22nd and continuing twelve weeks,
should be Of unusual interest to rural
teachers and others in preparing to
teach in rural schools. Mr.. Wilmoth
is teacher and supervisor of several
years experience, OF. thorough train
ing and full Of enthusiasm for his
work. The large vote which ne re-
ceived at the hands Of the voters Of
Randolph-co. last fall testifes to his
general popularity and also to the
approval of the people Of the man for
the place.
For the past several years Davis
and Elkins has been offering courses
of this kind during the summer school
session. These courses will be dis
continued this year in the Summer
School and will be offered in the
spring term when teachers are really
in need of preparation for the first
and second examinations. 1t is I'M
derstood that the rates will be so
moderate as TO be within reach OF
all teachers. Room and board for
young men may be had either in the

NEED OF TRAINED TEACHERS
IN AGRICULTURE.

If population of the United States
increases within the next decade in
proportion to the increase of the past
uecs.ue, Americas greatest problem
will be the supply OF toodstufts. New
conditions confront us. Our soil is
fast becoming exhausted and new
lands are no longer available. The
problem of the present is to give such
instruction in our public schools that
young men ana women Will know how
70 meet these new conditions. The
strength and sinew OF a nation de-
pend upon the efficiency OF its rural
population. West Virginia is dis
clnctiy a rural state ana as such it is
imperative that our schools should
give instruction IN subjects that meet
the neeos OIL the greatest number.
OJnerwlse the schools is not ao

they are, however, getting tram
ing that Will enable Jnem TO become
better citizens, i've better ana more
satisfying nveS, no maUIer what their
surroundings may become. Agricul-
ture is not only vocational but cul-
tural.
Too many persons are teaching
agriculture because boards of educa-
ton demand it or because higher
salaries are paid for this line OF
work This instruction is necessarily
of a low grades The teaching OF
agriculture requires the service of
teacher better trained ACCIDENTALLY,
and better trained in. psychology,
pedagogy and methods, than does the
teaching of any of the subjects now
included in the school curriculum.
The teaching of agriculture embraces
the whole OF a teachers art. 1t is
pervasive and exacting subject. 1t
embooies the most importing aspects
of character building; for In teach
ing pupils scientifically to plant, cul-
tivate, harvest farm crops, and to
care for farm animals, we are train
ing them in some of the most valuable
lessons of life. Industry is not only
explained and commenced, but it Is
reailzeo. 1t has been amply demon
strated during the present year that
those persons who have had special
training along the lines of agricul-
ture are able not only to make this
subject vital one in the schoolroom,
but in community as well. Tax
payers and parents have come to feel
that our schools must offer instruction
in the real activities of life. Rural
and high school teachers who can
give assistance to farmers in the
pruning and spraying of their or
chards, testing and inoculating the
soil, caring for farm animals, bull
ding silos, and selecting and testing
of seed, are in demand. Higher sal
aries are paid to teachers who can
do these things.
