AGRICULTURAL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Requests are being received ev-
cry day for room reservation and
work to help pay expenses for
some student. We will have a
small amount Of work, about the
school and farm, and it will be the
policy of the school to give this
work to the boys and girls who
are actually in need of assistance.
If there are those who are really
able to bear all Of the small ex-
pense attached to a years work,
and who have written concerning
work, please correct the Impress
ion with us so that we can judge
as to the number of students who
must have aid.
Many are asking about the ex-
pense of a year in the school. The
actual expense is nominal. The
books for any student, will cost at
least four dollars. These books
will be sold to the boy or girl at
actual cost but we must have cash
at the time of sale in order to get
the discount price. The cost of
board each month is a matter that
prices of groceries can alone de-
termine. We will buy our groce-
ries from the farm and pay for
them at actual cost of production.
Other bills will be placed with the
wholesale grocers of Jackson and
Meridian and it will be necessary
that these bills be settled prompt
ly. 1t has been customary, in this
school, to pay board at the end of
each month but in order to re-
duce the cost of things we will be
forced to require that deposit be
made at the beginning of the ses-
sion. When the first month is
closed, we will figure the cost of
groceries used, divide by number
of boarders and you will be given
credit for any balance on the next
month. Each student must keep
on deposit to his or her credit,
twelve dollars. We will be glad

matters not how long or how short
may be the spell of sickness, your
medical fee will pay the doctor
for his calls. All medicine will
be charged extra and charged to
the board account Of the individ-
ual. This fee is nothing more or
less than an insurance policy for
the student. We are fortunate in
getting the doctor to agree to such
a plan.
The only trouble that one may
have in entering a student with
us is in getting up the entrance

innate estimate for the conven-
ience of those concerned:
