Many Cities s Follow
Plan Adopted
Here

In 1912 thru the efforts OF spe-
cial committee OF the Detroit Real
Estate Board. chairman OF which
was c. NJ. Harmon who also was
director OF the Detroit Y. M. @ A.
the latter organization added TO its
studies a - weeks course In real
estate.
This nrst course was under the
supervision OF Lester Il. Wise and
a part OF the program was a series
ef "A weekly lectures By leading io-
cal real estate operators and bust
ness men on subjects relating TO
real estate and relative businesses.
This venture has since developed
into one OF the chief activities Of
the Detroit Real Estate Board and
the Y. VI. c. A. The original plan
has been much elaborated and Inn
proved upon.
The sixth course Of study under
this plan Is about 10 close for this
season there being but one more
lesson.
-The Detroit Real Estate Board
was undoubtedly the pioneer In this
work which has grown until II IL
not only OF city and statewide In
terest but many cities thruout the
country have adopted the idea,-
says Harry T. Clough, secretary OF
the board. -The National Associa-
ton OF Real Estate Boards is now
carrying a committee on education
which Is endeavoring TO get uniyer-
stiles TO adopt the plan.
zone OF the factors which has
helped in the local work Is the CO
operation accorded by Detroit news
papers. II In we'll known that too
little is known by the average per
son regarding real property. All
lectures under the local plan of
study are given by the most able
men In the Detroit Real Estate
Board and who are looked upon as
authorities In their particular lines.
This class this year has probably
been the best ever enrolled. The
membership Is not quite so large as
one former class but the number OF
students who will complete the
course is the greatest ever recorded
by the managers.
Two years ago improved text mat
ter was added 10 the work and the
student now carries regular
amount OF text work In addition to
the lectures. This text matter Gov
srs the fundamentals OF real estate.
law and agency. This year. for the
frst time, there has also been added
the feature OF a number OF special
sessions in the study OF salesman
ship and general business.
Some OF the other cities which
are following Detroit's lead In this
work are: Columbus. Ohio. which

1917 COTTON CROP 4
MATTER OF SPECULATION.

From local reports, the CON
clusion is reached that farmers
of Fulton and adjacent cotton
growing counties will plant a
larger acreage of cotton tins year
than in 1916, the result OF high
prices paid last year. 1t IS to be
hoped, however, that the impor-
lance of grain and feed crops
will not be overlooked, In the en-
thusiasm of high priced cotton.
Those who failed to raise last
year enough corn for their stock
this year will agree with u.s. Corn
