The sixth ward COVE 412 four years
ago and 327 this year, while ths
eighth ward reported SOL four years
ago and 406 this year, and in thu
first ward we had 656 four years
ago and 555 this time.
l am pleased to report that the
work of the Elementary Supervisor
has been very satisfactory to me,
and has, I believe, proved Of assist
ance to the inexperienced country
teachers. OF course, she is finding
many things that can be improved
upon, and l believe that we should
support and uphold her in any sug-
gestions or recommendations that
she may make with view of improv-
ing the work of the schools. The
tests in silent reading that have been
given are showing some very inter
esting facts. Children in some OF
the Grades who ahve been getting
very poor marks in subjects like his
tory, geography, physiology and
grammar are making low scores in
their comprehension tests in silent
reading. This is perfectly natural,
and we cannot expect children to
make good grades when they do not
understand what they read. Child
rem who score as high as 1913 in rate
when the standard is>102, score 1913
in comprehension, when the stand
ard is 25.7. This proves that altho
they can read rapidly, they do not
understand what they read. We
have pupils who earn only g. in the
fourth grade rate score, and the
standard is 65, and only IL in their
comprehension score, when the
standard is 10.6. I believe that by
this method we are getting to a
certainty the actual
conditions in some of our schools.
This will be of great assistance in
knowing definitely in what grade or
where to place these children.
Those of you who had the pleasure
of attending the Parish Fair On
School Daay saw probably the larg-
est parade of school children ever

and l do not doubt but what it was
the largest parade ever seen in tac
rem marched to the fair grounds and
made an appearance that any loyal
patriotic citizen should be proud of.
The exhibits in the Educational

we're excellent, when we take into
the fact that our
schools were badly broken up year
ago on account of influenza. | would

There are few crops better suited

cane. No crop Is surer of paying re-
turns with less expense. l give be-
low figures that show profits so large
that people in other sections would
class the story as fiction, however, it
is a fact, and Mr.. Rex J. Bohne, of
Folsom, second ward, is the man
who produced this record-breaking
yield. Mr.. Bohne's land is cut-over
pine upland, slightly rolling, with
red clay sub soil overlaid with sandy
loan soil.
Mr.. Bohne says: "I planted 75C
stalks of cane on one fourth of an
acre. l prepared the land we'll and
got a perfect stand of cane. / mix
ed $50 pounds of bone dust with
$50 pounds cotton seed meal, max
ing a total of 700 pounds. I usei
this as side dressing in two appli-
cations. i put on first application
of 400 pounds when cane was up to
good stand and worked into soil. l
put on the other 800 pounds when
cane was shoulder high, and laid by.
Now, last week cut 1900 stalks
