school Notes

The schools opened Monday with
all teachers in their places nd
good enrolment In the first grade
d number of pupils reported who
were not quite old enough to be en-
rolled, and number were sent home
with instructions to report at the end
OF the first half year. This doubtless
caused some disappointment, and
the schools regret that that they did
not get the announcement in the papers
that in regard to this matter. In or
der that the half year system OF pro-
motion may be continued and the
first primary grade not be oyercrowd
ed it is necessary that a class start
in January, SO it is hoped that these
children who are not yet quite old
enough may be ready for work by
that time.
The enrolment by grades is as
follows: lst, 35; End, %: 3rd, 81;
9th, 80: 5th, 81: 9Th, 20: 7th; 7th, "a;
9Th, %: H. S. 100; total 333.
The enrolment in high the school
is not quite equal to that OF last year
when q total enrolment of the year
was 125. However a number of boys
who are reported in school year
have not yet reported, and doubtless
number OF them will report for work
after the farm work and threshing are
finished.
The new manual training depart
ment is in the center of interest in the
high school. The courses have been
SO adjusted that nearly all the boys
OF the high school will take this work.
In the grades the boys of the 5th. 9th,
7th, and 8th will be given the manual
training work in the shop twice q
week, and at the same time it is plann-
ed to give the girls Of these rooms
some work in sewing under the direc-
tion OF the teachers who will be super.
vised by Miss Waugh of the domestic
science department..
The pupils OF both high school and
grades appear to be glad to be back
in school the teachers have remarked
that those who have enrolled seem to
be determined to 'smake good' this
year.

How to Select Seed Corn

With but little doubt, the sup
ply Of good seed corn will be
short next spring and that may
mean good stiff price. Last
spring we saw tirst-class seed
corn in eastern South Dakota re.
main unsold for the lack of buy
ers. This was a very unusual
condition because the normal
seed corn situation for many
years has been one of shortage
of supply good demand aud pro-
fit bearing prices.
Unless the season is unusually
long there will be but little good
seed corn produced, and it will
require additional care to find
what there is. The following
practical method Of seed corn
selection is used on the various
farms of the South Dakota ex-
pertinent station each season.
About September 10, the hunt
is begun. A grain sack may be
very easily adjusted to carry
slung over ones shoulder and
this method is generally used,
thouge at times baskets or buck
cts are substituted. The first
care is to find mature, sound
corn. Nexl the corn plant or
stalks is observed. A \ sturdy
stalk with the ear borne in
hanging position about three feet
from the shank of the ear to the
ground is wanted. Ears found
on such stalks are selected if
mature.
At four o'clock, the sacks of
selected seed are taken to the
seed room. there to be examined
again for straight rows Of even
kernels, good shape and stand
ard size and color. The ears that
are selected are then hung up to
dry SO that they do not touch one
another, thus permitting air to
circulate on all sides. This
method is thoroughly practical,
and requires comparatively little
time.-By Manley Champlain,
Assistant Agronomist, in charge
Of field experiments.

'sBOOst for Grant County
To Grant County Farmers:

= ~ - 0AAS 0~NASJ 49, - - -
Grant County is blessed with
a fertile soil. Grant County has
good class of hardy people.
Why is not Grant County known
as one Of the foremost in the
state? Simply because she does
not wake up to the possibilities
to be found within her borders.
Few counties can claim success
in the various branches of Agri-
culture as can Grant County.
Still we find too much wheat
growing there.
The crops have been bountiful
this year. Now is the time to
think about what will be planted
next year. Get some of last
years corn for seed and get it
now. Every farm should have
seed corn for 80 acres. But few
fields of alfalfa are to be found in
Grant County. There should be
at least 20 acres of this wonder
full crop on every farm next year.
All this means more silos, and
more and better livestock in
Grant County.
A good opportunity for all
Grant County people, to show
that their county is alive to her
real worth will be given on Octo.
Der 7-8-9th. At this time, fair
will be held at Milbank.
Again, Minnesota has offered
the glad hand to Grant County,
on October 1914 18th, at which
time. the North Central Counties
of Minnesota will hold their Corn
and Alfalfa Show at Ortonville,
Mimi.
Minnesota knows what crops
to grow in order to make her a
richer and more prosperous
state. Now is the time for Grant
County to embrace the opportun-
ity and show Minnesota people
that she is equal to the occasion
and can grow these crops equal
ly as well.
Bring or send a bushel of your
best grain, (corn, oats, barley.
speltz, fax, wheat) or alfalfa seed,
to Gold & Company of Big Stone,
City, S, D., or Mr.. Robert D.
Jones Of Mllbank, S. d. They
will see that it is put in shape to
show at these fairs. It will be
entered in the grower name
and the grower will receive the
prizes.
Minnesota offers ribbon prizes
to Grant County growers while
cash prizes will be given by the
Commercial Club of Milbank.
If you have any first class diary
or beef cattle to display, kindly
write Mr.. Robert D. Jones Of
Milbank, S D.
Grant County will have a man
in the field next year, to work
with the farmers, toward better
farming. The County Poor Farm
will be used as a Demonstration
to grow Pure Bred Seed.grain
and live stock. Farmers will be
able to get the best seed-grain
and breeding stock from this
source, and at greater profit to
the county.
Get in line and boost for rich.

How can I overcome prejudice? l
find 1 am prejudiced against certain
sects and races
Rather stiff task, to answer all
these questions. OF course, 1 cannot
answer them fully. All 1 or any one
can do is to give a few hints which
may be useful. Here goes:
Oversleeping is not necessarily lazi-
ness. Go to bed earlier, if you have to
arise at certain hour. It's a safe rule
to take all the sleep you can get. The
rule in my own family is, Let the
sleepy Sleep"
Laziness is not bad quality always.
A lazy body often houses a most ener
getic mind. The real cure for physical
laziness is fun; find some form of eXer-
else that lures you. Mental laZiness lis
more difficult disease, and you can
only cure it by taking yourself severity
in hand. Usually. l should say. it is
hopeless.
Fear can generally be mitigated. if
not altogether removed, by intelli
gence. 1t is a by-product of ignorance,
as a rule We are afraid of what we
don't know. Science (knowledge) has
done much to alleviate superstition
Ggnorance).
Worry can only be remedied by adopt
ing some rational theory of life. some
common sense philosophy.
How to '1et go" of bedeviling
thoughts is a hard problem. Thoughts
that burn. stew, ferment and torment
About all can do is let them run their
course. / say, This too shall pass
and try to bear up against the pestifer-
Gus ina ginations and memories until
they wear themselves out.
1t is also good idea to have some at
tractive. interesting. fascinating vision.
of a pleasant nature. to which we can
turn our minds when annoying sug-
gestions persist.
How can l overcome prejudices
against such and such sects or races?"
Just repeat over and over to yourself
that all prejudice is stupid and ignor-
ant. BY and by you will, by auto-sug-
ness that prejudice shall have no place
in you.
Prejudice means Judging before"
you have the facts. Never judge till
after you have the facts.
Nothing is so utterly devoid of rea-
son as a passionate hatred of any race
or class All men are much the same
when you come to know them. Class
or race faults are superficial. The
human qualities strike deep.
