Homegrown grains can often be prot.
itably traded for protein feeds. While
oats are generally demanded for horse
feed. they are nearly always too ak
pensive for dairy feed. Oats by-prod.
ucts, however, are very useful for
bulk.

Starchy feeds like corn and oats
often sell as high as protein feeds be-
cause Of the demand for them for
horses and other work animals
Starchy feeds are also good to fatten
steers. That is why they are often as
high in price as dairy feeds, which are
strong in protein.

A Change at Freedom Academy

Freedom, Me, Sept. 1S.-The rejec-
ton of the exemption claim filed by
the trustees of Freedom Academy for
Principal Harry NJ. Woods was dis
appointment to the members and many
friends of the school, who had hoped
that he might remain to continue the
work so successfully carried on for the
past year. The further notice for Mr..
Woods to appear for duty within hVe
days of the receipt of the exemption
decision made the work of adjusting
the school to changed conditions one
calling for promptness
The executive board acted at once
and decisively and with the busy CO.
opera ton of Mr.. Woods during the few
days that he had, the situation was
ably met Inquiry from all available
sources showed what had been cx-
pected to be fact. Male teachers of
any kind were found to be very scarce
and capable men who could teach agri-
culture, non existent. The necessity
of suspending the agricultural course
for time being apparent, the question
became one of hiring an untried man
or meeting the situation in some other
way.
Miss Lucretia Davis, now serving
her second year as assistant in the
school. is a woman of unusual poise
and executive ability. After careful
consideration. it was decided to ap-
point her acting principal of the
school, Mr.. Woods having been grant
ed a leave of absence for the duration
Of the war. While the arrangement Is
avowedly temporary, every confidence
is felt that Miss Davis is entirely ca
pable of handling the situation so we'll
that it may seem wise to continue it
indefinitely. Steps are being taken to
procure third teacher and an an
nounCement of appointment may be
expected soon.
In outlining the policy to be pursued
in this emergency. the executive board
and Mr.. Woods teel that the best in
terests of the school are being served
and that the solution adopted is a wise
one. 1t is matter of the deepest re-
gret that agricultural instruction had
to be suspended. but that was inevi-
table. Other subjects will be intro
duced temporarily, in order that the
choice of students may he wider than
the curriculum of tho Latin and Eng
lish courses. Miss Davis is a factor
of known strength; a man hired at
this time Of year. of decidedly I'M
known power. And looking toward the
future. if the war is soon over Mr..
Woods will be back to his place in the
school; if the war continues, the larg-
or schools will be easingly likely
to draw the good men from the small
or ones. And if it is going to become
necessary to rely wholly on women
teachers. II is better TO take the step
now with woman of proven strength
Meanwhile, school activities are
progressing rapidly. The Athletic AS
sociation and the several classes have
elected their officers. the Freshman re-
ception has been held. and except for
the regret caused by Mr. Woods de.
parture, everyone is looking forward
to the year with the most plsasurable
anticipations.
