SCHOOL MAKES
SPLENDID RECORD
IN OLD kA|NTUCK
lPARk AVENUE WARD SCHOOL IN
NEWPORT SELLS $2s, 900 WAR
SAVINGS STAMPS.
BOUGHT s7l6 DURING JULY
Only %75 Pupils in School and Sales
Have Reached 5000 Per
Capita.

There Is a school in the northern
part Of Kentucky that is in a class BY
itself In developing patriotic boys ant
girls who in the years to come are
bound to make their marks In the field
Of craftsmanship, finance and In gen
eral endeavor.
Records available at the headquar
tiers of the War Savings Organization
for the Eighth Federal Reserve Dis
'trict In st. Louis do not reveal any
other city in the United States that
has a school that is making 80 good
. record in the sale OF War Savings
Stamps as the Park Avenue Ward
School, at Newport, KY.
This city. with a population Of some.
thing like 10000 inhabitants. Is justly
proud of the Park Avenue School,
whose ATS pupils during the scholastic
year Of 1918-1s19 bought War Savings
Stamps totalling $29, 900. or $50. SO per
capita.
These stamps were all acquired b
tween September. 1918. and June, 1914.
During that period the saving habk
was so i~nculcated among the pupils
that even during vacation period they
kept up the good work, Up to July IS
the pupils bought, in July, $716 worth
of stamps. They made a special trip
to the school house on the day select
ed by the secretary OF the War Saw
'ings Society In the school and turned
over the amount Of money.
Miss Dora Cummings, one OF the
teachers in the Ward School. is secre-
itary Of the War Savings Society that
has made this splendid record. She
has received the uniform support Of
every teacher in the school and the
pupils imbibed the thrift spirit and
are doing all they a to keep their
school at the head of the School War
Savings Societies in the United States.
Miss Cummings and the other teach
ers devoted q specified hour each week
TO instructing their pupils in the bene-
hts of saving and in doing their duty
to their country. The children were
told that because of the great wal con-
ditions had arisen which required the
federal government to spend vast
sums of money and that the only way !
these sums of money were now avail
able was through the sales of the gov
eminent securities offered through the
War Savings Organizations, This ap-
to their patriotism.
Then the thrift side was taken up.
The children were told how they could
buy Thrift Stamps for rs cents each
and when they had acquired 16 that
the Thrift Stamps could be exchanged
for a War Savings Stamp, they i'm
mediately began working for the hold
er. These War Savings Stamps, they
were told. drew interest at the rate of
4 per cent. compounded quarterly, and
II held until maturity, on January l,
1924. would be worth S..
II, however. the pupil be compelled
to realize cash on his investment,
he may &c to the %postofice and get
all that he paid in, plus 3 per cent
interest at any time before maturity.
thus the pupils were shown that they
were serving a dual purpose, helping
their country and themselves and
learning the value Of money, which
would stand them throughout life.

FERTILIZE LITERALLY
Says Professor Asee.

u am convinced that the av-
erage individual loses his chance
for the largest net income from
land by failure TO fertilize lib
orally. When one lacks capital
1t Is perhaps n serious matter
to run up a big bill for ferti-
llzers, but when labor and seeds
are to be risked it Is poor bust
ness not to have enough plant
food to make Il good crop. Poor
land does not get one anywhere
at least In the direction he
wants to travel."-Alva Agee,
In National Stockman and

GOVERNMENT ADVISES
WHEAT GROWERS
How to Avoid Hessian Fly.

ut should be borne In mind that the
most practical and effective methods
Of controlling the Hessian fly are iden
teal with the best methods Of prOduc
ing the maximum yields of wheat. II
does not seem to occur to the average
farmer that 1t is possible for him to
fight the Hessian fly by the process OF
good farming. involving thorough cur
tivation. good seed. and a rotation OF
crops. 1t has been said, and with
truthfulness, that outbreaks Of this
pest are more often the result of poor
farming than otherwise. The most Sc
riOus objection to the most practical
and effective method that can be en-
ployed TO control this pest In the
field-namely, late sOwing--is that
there is danger of so delaying the
growth of the plants that they do not
become sufficiently advanced to en-
able them to withstand the winter.
The farmer Is thus placed. as it were,
between Scylla and C~harybdis. and
must risk the ravages of the Hessian
fly on the one hand or the freezes Of
winter on the other.
much of the delay In the growth
Of late-sOwn plants In the fall can be
eliminated by paying close attention
TO the preparation of the soil and to
the quality Of the seed. A thoroughly
vigorous wheat plant will not only
Withstand a slight attack of the Hes
sian fly but 1t frequently occurs that
such a light attack is rather beneficial
than otherwise, for the reason that
the killing Of the first shoot that Is
thrown up from the kernel forces the
plant to tlller, and in rich soil the
result is to produce more grain; but
II the soil lacks fertility and has been
poorly prepared, this slight attack
that vigorous plants overcome is fatal
to weak plants. because of the badly
nOurished condition of the plants. The
best advice that can be given is to
begin the preparation of the field in
the fall precisely as though 1t was ex-
to sow at a very early date,
but instead Of sowing use the disk
and the roller, even after 1t
appears to be a waste of labor to till
the field further.
when a finely pulverized, compact
seeded has been secured, the seed
be selected, and this should be
done with the point In view that un-
naturally shriveled or otherwise i'm
kernels cannot produce healthy
wheat plants. When the kernel sprouts
L at once sends fibrous roots down
ntO the soil from which to draw nOu
shment for the young plant, and IL
little or no nOurishment Is secured
he wheat plants are put into mt
what the condition of stunted calves,
pigs or other farm animals which are
Inderfed.
Wheat plants cannot secure prompt
ample nourishment If the roots
must make their way about among
due to poor preparation of the |
'oil, or in soil that lacks in fertility.
The farmer, then, should begin the
Of his soil with the object
II delaying the sowing of the wheat
md afterwards Of pushing the growth
If the plant to the utmost until the be-
of the cold weather. There
re farmers who grow wheat continu-
'usly year after year but who rarely
oSe a crop on account of Hessian fly
i'iacks, and even more rarely does the
,eSt originate in their fields."-
