STATE SCHOOLS ID RELEASE BOYS AND
 GIRLS FOR FARMS

Montgomery, April 21.-(Special) Presidents of all district agricultural schools and principals of all county high schools Saturday were authorized by the state department of education to release from active school duties all boys and girls whose parents will certify that they are desired for work on the farm. No credits or promotions which would have come to the students had they remained in school will be lost as the heads of the schools were instructed to grant the credits for farm work. This is one means adopt ed by the state to aid in the cam paign for great foodstuffs with which to feed the American and allied armies.
 William F. Feagin, state superln- tendent instructed the heads of the schools to prepare certificates which must be signed by the parents or guardians of those who desire to en- gage in the farm work, this method being used to make certain that those released from school duties will en- gage in the work planned for them.
 Six thousand persons are enrolled in the district agricultural schools and county high schools and MT. Feagin
 
 opportunity to aid the country in the war.
 'The board regards this as an ex- traordinary condition and therefore make exceptions to the rules and regu- lations to the extent that due credit shall be given every pupil who with draws from school to engage in farm work. such credit to consist of reo- ognition of the years work as if 1t were completed. provided the schools records show that the pupils desiring the privileges of this provision shall have such grades as would entit1e them to promotion at the end of the year." said Superintendent Feagin's tu- structions.
 Those pupils whose grades would not entitle them to promotion should be given 8 reasonable final examina- tion on the subjects covered during the last half semester and up to the time of withdrawal. The grades so made should be averaged with the pu- pills records for the year to determine the pupils promotion"
 Plans for the release of the school children were worked out by Super intendent Feagin and Governor Hen derson.

HIGH FOOD PRICES MEANS LOW PRICED
 COTTON THIS FALL
This Is Warning Given to Southern Farmers Who Are Urged to Plant
 Edible Crops

Columbia, s. C., April 21.That high prices for food means low prices for cotton and that it is essential of the success of the cotton growers that suf ficient foodstuffs for the nation be grown, was pointed out by Davis R. Coker of Hartsville, chairman of the South Carolina preparedness commits sion, in an appeal to the southern farmers just issued. Mir Coker, who is a director of the federal reserve bank of Richmond is considered an authority on plant breeding. His ap- peal says in part:
 Basic economic laws are immutable. When food is selling at famine prices wage earners have little or nothing to spend for clothing. Then dry goods sales fall off. Dry goods prices de- cline and raw cotton must follow. On April May wheat (Chicago) closed at $2.07 and May corn at $1.27. May cotton (New York; closed that day at 20.50c.
 Today May wheat closed at $2.41 and May corn at s1.46A. May cotton closed today at 19.S0c Breadstuffs. therefore, have advanced IS per cent and cotton declined per cent in 10 days. If breadstuffs hold at present figures or advance, it seems inevitable that cotton must continue to decline unless new economic factors appear to sustain prices. If southern farmers should curtail cotton acreage and in- crease the acreage in foodstuffs suf- ficiently to cut off the $500, 900, 900 to $700,- O00000 food bill which the south an- nually buys from the west and north, that would be a great economic factor in support of cotton prices"
