Department Of Education.

In order that the state board of
education might be absolutely certain
as to the efficiency of the junior high
school type of organization in teach
ing the fundamentals, all of the chill
dren in these schools during the past
two years have been given standard
tests to determine their standing and
progress. The compilation of the re-
suits of these tests has so far been
completed during the past month as
to make 1t certain that no class in
the junior high schools of Vermont
has made less than the normal rate
OF improvement in arithmetic, Eng
lish and reading. while in several in
stances the amount of improvement
has been far In excess of the normal.

ORANGE COUNTY FARM
BUREAU.
Notes for Week Ending April 81.

Samples OF corn were tested out this
week for several OF the dealers. OF the
10 samples tested but three were first
class. Two others were fair and three did
not have a single kernel sprout. In one
of the schools over 100 samples have been
tested and only about one-half of the
samples have proved worth growing.
There has never been season in this
generation when so much poor seed corn
was scattered through the country which
the owners expect TO grow. The only
way TO tell before planting is to test out.
Have you tested yours yet? The man
who does not test his seed corn is run
ming big risk, as well as giving his
neighbors the right to call him Stacker.
This week with the aid Of j. Il. CARR
gan, assistant state leader of county
agent work, and the board of directors
of the farm bureau, series of meetings
is to be held to organize district com
mittees to handle the work of the farm
bureau in different parts of the county.

Seed Testing-The seed testing cam
paign has been gotten fairly under way
this week IL is too early To quote any
results of the past weeks testing, but Of
samples tested by the county agent last
week the results are very discouraging.
Scarcely AZ per cent of the corn tested
last week is at all fit for seed ! hope
the farmers who have made tests them
selves of their corn will tell their neigh
bors the results in order to encourage all
TO make the test in one way or another.
Nearly all of the school teachers in the
county have been reached by the super.
ntendents, junior high school principals
and the county agent, with an explana
ton of how to make the test The edu-
cational department is glad to cooperate
to the extent of making the actual tests
OF the corn or other seed in the school
rooms. Remember every school room is
seed testing laboratory this week as
well as last, and that it is up TO you TO
furnish the seed to be tested

and some large fields are planned. This
is the week to get it in. If left until
much later, it will not fill as we'll Wheat
needs the cool spring weather for getting
