ATTENDANCE At CITY
SCHOOLS HOLDING UP
High School Loses More Than
Others As Boys Have
Gone To War.

Although doxens of families from Sa-
lem have moved to Portland or other
ci Ees calling for ship yard workers, the
attendance at the city public schools
after tive weeks session is not mater
tally different from that of one year
ago. The greatest falling off is in ,he
the high school and this is accounted
for from the fact that so many Of the
older boys have enlisted during the past
year. One year ago the attendance OF
the Salem high school was SIG. The
registration now is 442.
In .he grades just below that Of the
high school, there is no great difference
in the attendance, now and one year
ago. AL the Washington Junior high
school in the three higher grades one
year ago the registration was 800 while
this year it is 356. In the Lincoln jun
ior high; in the three upper grades the
attendance one year ago was l42 while
this year lis 1873. In the Grant jun
ior high school, in the three higher
grades the attendance was l49' while
this year it il 1856. Compared to one
year ago, in the upper grades, Wash.
ington has lost 10, LINCOLN 8, and
Grant IA.
In the PRIMARY grades, Che GREATEST
loss is in the Englewood school. 0ne
year ago the attendance at this time
was 175 while the registration today IS
only 1Ol.
Garfield school is holding its OWE.
One year ago the registration was 242
while today it is 244.
Grant school in the primary grades
has lost i2 pupils in the year. One
year ago the registration was l32 while
today it is 100.
Highland school shows registration
of IA less than one year ago at this
time In 1917 at this time in October
the pupils numbered 1862 while the reg
istration now is las.
Lincoln school in the primary grades
now has registered 1874. With the
closing Of the Mckinley school, i.s
pupils mostly were sent tosLincoln. One
year ago Lincoln had in the primary
grades LAG and Mckinley 40.
Park school shows loss Of Is pupils
compared with one year ago. The
registration for Park in October of 1917
was 1854 while today its registration
is 149.
In the primary grades Of ihe Wash
ington junior high school, the attend
ance has increased 12. One year ago the
registration was 100 while today it is
202
The registration now in the Rich
mond school is 140 showing but little
change from that Of one year gao
Hence notwithstanding the fact that
So many families in Salem and vicinity
have moved to the ship yard cities, he
attendance in the public schools shows
Ia decrease Of only 1853 compared to one
year ago. Half Of this number is ac-
counted for in the young men Of the
high school who went into the service.
AS many are out Of school on account
of crop conditions, the prospects are
that within month or so, the regis.
tration of the city schools will compare
very fayorably with that Of one year
ago. The total attendance as regis
tered last week in the city schools is o.
$40. One year ago IL was 2,512.

DELICIOUS berry
THROUGH SUMMER
Long-Season Strawberries Have
Passed Trial Period.
OF REAL VALUE FOR MARKET
Heretofore "Everbearing" Varieties
Have Been Grown Chiefly by Anna
teurs and Commercial Crow
ers-Crop First Season.

Strawberries from your garden
throughout summer and autumn are
now a possibility as the result of the
perfection of "everbearing" varieties
of this delicate berry. Everbearing
Strawberries are not a brand new dis
covery, but heretofore they have been
grown chiefly by amateurs and COM
mercial growers who have tested them
In comparison with ordinary sorts. In
n recent publication of the United
States department of agriculture an
nouncement Is made that sufficient
number of trials of these varieties now
have been completed to indicate their
real value for home use and for mar
ket I'm certain sections of the country.
Primarily a Northern Type.
The regions where 1t is known that
everbearing varieties can be grown
extend as far south as the northern
parts of Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas
and Kansas. South of these limits
there are probably points where they
may be grown with some degree of
success, but they are not definitely
known to succeed there.
The two leading varieties of this
type of strawberry, the Progressive
and the Superb, are notable not only
because they produce fruit from the
time of the usual crop until late sum-
mer or autumn, but also because they
are exceptionally resistant to leaf
spot diseases. They are also very
hardy The Progressive has been found
10 withstand the winters of the middle
West better than any other variety ex'
cept the Dunlap, one Of Its parents.
The Superb also is harder than most
varieties of strawberries. Another re-
markable characteristic Of these varie'
ties is that If their blooms are killed
by frost they soon flower again. There
fore in many sections subject to late
spring frosts, which often destroy the
crop, these varieties are particularly
valuable.
Small Crop First Season.

set early In the spring, small crop

New Hotel for Lima, Peru.

The Congress of Peru by recent leg
islation has provided for an up to date
hotel In Lima, to be constructed under
the supervision of the national govern
ment of Peru and to cost not less than
100000 (973,OO0). The site set aside
for the hotel Is government property
located In the heart Of the city and Is
TO be acquired by the company con-
structing the hotel.
The need of a modern hotel In Lima
has been keenly felt by the travellers
for some time, says Commerce Reports.
During recent years the number Of
commercial travellers and tourists Wis
iting the west coast Of South America
has more than doubled, and many or
these have found II inconvenient or
even impossible to remain longer than
n few days in Lima because of the lack
OF adequate hotel accommodations.

Territories Produce More.

The two million people in Alaska,
Hawaii. Porto Rico, and Guam are try
ing to do their part for the food sup
ply. Through Its experiment stations
In these possessions the United States
department of agriculture early in the
emergency started campaigns to in
crease food production. To make the
territories less dependent upon the
mainland of this country for their sup
plies is the aim of the federal work
ers. Important results already have
been obtained.
Porto Rico. which formerly imported
more than 100000 worth of beans an
nually from the mainland, now is In a
position to export this product. The
Alaska stations have greatly increased
the areas sown to grains and now are
able to meet increased demands for
seed grains locally adapted. The Guam
station Is distributing larger quanti'
ties of seeds and plants for cultivation
by the natives, with prospects Of an
increased production of food. Hawaii
also has materially increased its pro-
duction of food crops. Before the war
Hawaii and Porto Rico imported some
S20.000O00 worth of food supplies from
this country annually. Many Of the ar
tlcles imported can be grown success
fully In these Islands.

then a period of comparative rest
when little fruit is produced, followed
by long period when fairly uniform
amount of fruit Is borne.
Weather conditions play an impor-
tant part in the amount of fruit pro-
duced during the summer and autumn.
Only when the moisture supply and
other climatic conditions are favorable
tan the yield be constant. For this
reason the results obtained from the
everbearing varieties have varied
greatly in the different sections of the
country, and in different years. If a
long drought occurs while the plants
nre fruitlng, the berries become small
md the plants finally cease to bear.
Therefore they are not well adapted

Superb. In addition, variety
known as the Minnesota No.

troduced. Only two Of the va
rieties introduced, the Progress
sive and the Superb, have been
widely grown as yet. The Amer

and the others very little. The
Minnesota No. 1917 has been
widely tested in Minnesota and
is grown to slight extent in
surrounding states. Farmers
Bulletin 901 of the United
