l regret that | have been unable to
make a definite announcement con-
corning the opening of the Ironton
Schools. However, programs have
been planned and definite outlines
made for the coming year. Because
of the excellent buildings and equip
ment together with the well trained
teachers, it can be safely said that
few Ozark towns offer such exception
al advantages for High School train
ing. Conditions are ideal for non-
resident pupils who have completed
the grades in rural schools. Good
boarding places may be secured
reasonably. Tuition for nonresident
High School students will be two dol

NO BREED OF HOGS IMMUNE
FROM CHOLERA.

More Arkansas hogs are lost in win
ter from cholera than in summer be-
cause the animals are usually brought
up and are consequently in closer
contact Thus the diseased animals
spread the cholera among healthy ami
mails.
Dr. r. M Cow. State Veterinarian,
with the University of Arkansas, says
that people should remember that no
breed OF hogs is naturally immune
from hog cholera. The only way to
eradicate the disease is for whole COM
munities TO get together and enforce
the burning of all dead hogs, and other
sanitary regulations. Where this is
not done animals should be vaccinated.
Vaccination will not eradicate the
disease, but the double treatment will
Immune the animals. County Agents
are always ready to teach the farmers
how to vaccinate their hogs.

1t is very important to keep a record
Of the time spent ON crops or any other
farm enterprise. in order to be able to
plan work better in the future and to
help figure what 1t costs to produce a
crop.
When one knows Just how much
work is required each month for each
crop, he can plan his work so as to
keep men and teams reasonably busy,
without being too busy. Records of
this Kind kept by Arkansas farmers
for the writer indicate that men work
only about 100 days a year on crops
and 70 days on other enterprises
Figures such as these should slim

such thing, but, il reality, il is very

and FL Paso endorsed him with
