ANOTHER BOOSTER
PERIOD ANNOUNCED
For Twelve Subscriptions 5000 Free
Votes will Be Given--Read How
Easy One Lady Got Ten in
Other Booster Period.

The Booster Period OF two weeks
proved so successful and was such an
encouragement to the contestants that
we have decided to give one more
Booster Period. This is done mainly
to encourage few persons who have
| manifested an interest IN the contest
since the other Booster Period was
started. In this instance we shall
make the offer more liberal than be-
fore because there is little likelihood
of another Booster Period being put on
during the contest.
This time we shall give 5000 votes
for twelve cash subscriptions, or $18. 90.
The Booster Period will close Wed
nesday, May 81. That gives you two
weeks IN which tu interest your friends
at distance; write them ana let them
know what you are working for and
just why you need their help to get
that 5000 extra votes. Those who
worked in earnest in the other Booster
Period made quite change in the
number of vot' 8 to their credit.
One young la y got the ten subscrlp-
tions in less this two hours. She did
not start to get hem until the after
noon of the day the Booster Period
closed. 1t we,-'.l be mighty interest

For several years the Institution has
been conducting extensive farming ac.
tivItles particularly along those lines
that provide the most food for the
school. Each year the conditions have
grown better and now the prospects
are splendid. Under the efficient man
agement of Herbert Smith, manager
and director of the farm work, they
are not only growing food crops and
raising live stock but are practlcIng
such rotation of crops and the growing
of legumes as is building up the farm
after the most approved methods of
scientific agriculture. This is splen-
did object lesson and direct encour-
agement to the youths who attend the
institution and who come from the
farm or whose bent is in that direction.
Last year the farm produced 800
bushels of Irish and sweet potatoes,
the most of which were used by the IN
stltution, while the surplus was sold.
They have sold ten head of young stock
that brought S225; in the fall these
will be replaced to consume the feed
grown on the farm and provide beef tor
the boarding hall.
For this year the potatoes and corn
are all planted and the general appear
ance OF the farm is most gratifying.
Owing to the business depression the
has been somewhat hamper
ed for lack Of funds but the year is ex-
pected to close without deficit.
