He expects to have some en- ties in the County Contest. At the Pie Supper held last week the sum of for ty dollars was raised to purchase a new teachers desk and chair. MT. Musgrave has already been offered a school for next year at $125 per month. The work he is doing here speaks for itself in his being called back to this school after the lapse of two years. He has taught for the last five years around Hatfield and each year com mands higher salary than the year preceding.

Y0' SPENT YO' MONEY,
 BUT WEAR YO' BEEN

At county fair last fall, an old colored woman was invited to take ride on the merry -go-round. She re- piled, firmly, No, sahl I don't nebber ride on one of dem things. see that Rastus Johnson ride as much as a dol lah's wurth 'ud buy and den get off right wha he git on at Den I sez to him, 'Rastus,' l sez, You dun spent yo money, but whar yo' been ?'"
 That is the way we feel these days when we have spent a few hours trading in town, we dun spent our trading in town-we dun spent our Miss Connie J. Bonslagel, with the Agricultural Extension Division. Not ice that this old woman did not try to make the merry o-round over, nor to change it's course. Being wise, she just decided on getting her amusement somewhere else, and on spending her dollar where she would get something for it.
 "I believe that we can get lesson from her. Instead of buying eggs, buying frying sized chickens this spring, buying butter and milk and vegetables and canned goods of vari- ous kinds, we can begin right now and provide ourselves with all or some of these.
 "A group of five or six women in any community can get together and among themselves work out plans for a grown-in-t n-the-cemmunity living. A dozen such groups of women and girls in a county bent on conserving-can- ming all surplus fruits and vegetables can keep in that county the several thousand dollars that the merchants send each year into other states for canned goods. They would not only keep this money in the county, but they would have it for their very own to spend for those things that have to come from the outside. Get togeth- CT and call on your home demonstra- tion agent to help you work out your plans. She would like to be called on | by dozen such groups.n
