GASOLINE GOING UP

New York, May 1O.-Motorists to-
day became the latest victims of ad-
vancing prices.
The Standard Oil Company of New
York announced that the price of
gasoline to garages would be raised
to 80 cents q gallon, an increase of
one and one-ha!f cents, while indie
pendents were reported to be quoting
"gas" as high as 80 cents. This, it
was said, would mean that the retail
price would be at least 81 cents. To-
days advance brings advances since
January to % per cent.

southwest, as received III the finan.
cial district, indicated further up.

kinds of scrubs sires and the substi-

The Extension Service, the U. S.
Department, the agricultural press

in inviting qualified farmers to en-

Better Stock" crusade. There is no
cost attached at any time, and all
that is necessary is to make applica-

county agricultural agent certifying
that only purebred sires are used.

SCRUB STOCK MUST GO

Clemson College, May 10.-"There
are no back -sliders among believers
in purebred livestock" says Assist
ant Director of Extension Service,
d. w. Watkins, in discussing the
"Better Sires-Better Stock" cru
SADIE. AS soon as the farmer has
obtained speaking acquaintance
with purebred livestock he is for
ever dissatisfied with scrubs, and
not only SO but such a believing far
mer becomes a nucleus from which
spreads in the present and in the fu-
ture strong sentiment in favor of
purebred livestock"
The Extension Service livestock
workers have made a remarkable
discovery, adds Mr.. Watkins,-that
purebred sires are very often cheap
er than scrubs, not even considering
the difference in the value Of the
offspring. The explanation Of this
is as follows:
In n community where only one
good purebred bull is needed they
found that from four to eight scrubs
were being maintained. The tota
value of the scrubs for slaughte,
would be more than enough to pur
chase the good purebred and by
placing the purebred in the center Of
the community and eliminating thu
feed bills for several scrubs the pure
bred proved to be not only cheaper
to own but cheaper to maintain tha,

MORE PAY FOR TEACH
ERS

Hartford, Conn-The state board Of
education declares that wages should
be raised so per cent for these reas-
ons
There has been serious decline
in the purchasing power Of money
Many other vocations attractive by
reason of wage and nature of occupa-
tion have opened to men and women
and have diverted young persons Of
talent from teaching With the pres
ent wage teaching does not present
any hope of financial competence OF
even modest subsistence.
Upon teachers depend in large
measure the welfare of the common
wealth and the existence and stabil-
ity of free institutions.
therefore, this board heartily ap-
proves reasonable efforts to make the
salaries in public schools a reasonable
reward for responsibility and service
and to attract and attach to the pro
fession the vigorous life of our edu-
Gated young men and women
