NEW BILL INTERESTS.

Alpha is interested in a bill intro
duced in the legislature last week, by
she terms OF which public improve
ment work may be done by villages
on the deferred payment plan.
For instance, should Alpha decide
10 do more with its streets and sew
ers, the work could be done and diyid-
ed into five equal installments cover
ing a period of FIVE years. The in
terest upon deferred payments is es-
tablished at per cent, rate which

Supt. Bishop Has Plan TO Arouse Some
Competition In Gardening.

County Agent EIoopingarner was at
the Porter School last Tuesday con
ferring with Supt Bishop on plans
for the gardening work that Mr.. Bish-
op is planning out for the Porter
schools pupils the coming year. To
gether they talked over the line OF
work to be attempted, the location for
the gardens and other details neces-
sary 10 have arranged in advance.
AS unfolded TO a representative OF
the Diamond Drill, Mr.. Bishop plans
two distinct lines OF work. One a
sort Of intensive gardening that will
be carried on by himself and his class
Of both boys and girls on lot in the
Homecroft addition, donated for the
purpose by the Judson Mining Co
The other will be sort Of COM
petitive gardening to be carried on on
the fiat near the base ball ground, on
land donated by the Balkan Mining
Co. The latter tract consists OF a
large area of ground, large enough
for family garden purposes for num-
Der OF families.
The gardens will be laid off in lots
one to be titled by a man, the next by
a boy and so on, alternately, for as
many pairs as can be induced to take
up the work The boys will be placed
in competition with the men and the
work OF both carefully supervised by
Prof. Bishop and, when the crops are
reaped in the fall, the harvest will
tell how faithful the gardeners have
been at their work and whether the
men or the boys were the best garden
ers
Prof. Bishop hopes by this placing
of men in competition with boys TO
bring to the former more of an appre-
citation for the boy and TO the latter
an inducement for better work
The people of Alpha are much in
terested in the plan and are anxious
TO see IL tried out.
