 Third-We have already given our attention to small grains eX- cept spring oats.
 Fourth The production of hay and forage crops is one of the most important considerations confronting us. A great increase was made in the growing of vel vet 0eans, soy beans, peanuts, COW peas, etc, but the increase should be even greater this year. The velvet bean is destined to be one of the greatest redemptlve agents to the poor southers farm. Velvet beans on every farm is our slogan this year in Nevada County.
 Fifth We must maintain our supply of meat, eggs, and milk. The South is the home of the hog. The interest in hog pro- duction is augmented by sys- tems of co operation. shipping, and marketing, and by opening new packing industries,
 Poultry should receive greater consideration.

We should re member that the nation needs cotton as we'll Cotton cannot be grown to the exclusion of these other things. Neither can we exclude cotton.

 Seventh-In 1918 save all waste products on the farm. Use best implements, more horse power. and less hand-power. Sell excess products on the farm, and pay living expenses.

Teachers salaries, on the whole,

Teachers salaries. on the whole. have not been raised, while the increasing cost of food and ne- cessities makes much greater de mands on slender incomes than heretofore. The problem of the summer vacation is becoming alarmingly acute with a large number of teachers.
 Many teachers are seeking re lief from the uncertainty of tu- ture employment and support by transferring to the field of Civil Service, where the pay is prompt and sure and the salary Is drawn the year round. with good oppor- tunities for advancement. Others seek the broader world of busi ness, with the ambition to rise above the salary basis to reach q comfortable income with the prospect of attaining the wealth which commercial success ulti- mately brings.
 The door which offers admls- sion to these new fields Is the commercial education. Once equipped with this knowledge, the teacher has the Way always open to either class ef employ ment. He or she has the option of continuing the teaching, ar entering the employ of the gov ernment, or seeking opp8rta- nitie, in business. The Tyier Commercial College has many graduates who have gene direct ly into government employ at Washington and elsewhere Others have left commercial po- sitions of some standing to offer their services to Uncle Sam in Civil Service work. A reasonable number of these are employed locally with the boards working in every county and district throughout this country. Civil Service examinations are held every Tuesday in practically every city in the United States A step which will mean your ad- vancement and at the same tue help your country in this time of need ought to be taken without delay.
