PLANT CORN FOR SNOW

w. II. Root, of the Iowa highway
commission, has a scheme which has
been tried out to prevent snow from
drifting int cuts during the winter. He
advises planting OF about six rows of
corn on both sides of a road noted for
filling up with drifts. This forms a
natural fence and in the winter the
snow is kept out Of the cut by hitting
the corn stalks first.
Other work to keep snow out of high
WAY cuts has been done b yengineers
of the highway commission and they
have asked that all farmers keep the
weeds cut along main travelled roads
during the summer as this will allow
snow to blow and not to be caubht in
the road and start a drift. 1t is cheap
cr to prevent the drifts than to remove
them since figures taken last winter
show that it will cost 5000 per mile to
remove snow following one storm while
the amount of money appropriated for
maintenance Of one mile for a year is
only $500.

May 90 has commonly been regarded
as about the latest at which corn can
be planted in Iowa and matured All
Iowa farmers do not agree with this
statement, and it is true that corn in
Crawford county has been planted in
June and still maturcd. At this time it
is estimated that more than 60 per cent
of the corn is planted. 1t is also esti.

nv books for the year 1920, must be or
dered The law requires that the
county superintendent choose t h e
books That the county superintend-
ent may know what the teachers OF
this county want in their respective
schools he requests the teachers to re-
port before April LIST, the names OF the
books which they desire. choosing the
same from the official library list. To
make this work easy, we are now send
ing to the principals of schools in
which there are more than one teacher
and to all of the teachers in one room
schools. a statement of the amount of
money that is due that district for
library purposes with the request that
the teacher or principal report both a
first choice and second choice OF
books sufficient in number to use the
amount of money to which the district
is entitled We particularly desire
prompt action and the report not later
than April LIST.
The office is in receipt of few re-
ports for teachers reading circle work.
1t is expected that these reports will
come in quite rapidly from now until
the end of the year. The law requires
that teachers do the prescribed reading
circle work in order to be entitled to
certain professional privileges 1t is a
custom in the Office upon receipt OF a
report from teacher of a book or
books read, to Immediately examine the
report and after making proper record
of the same, return it to the teacher
We trust that this work will be finished
before the end of the year, so that it
will not pile up beyond our ability to
make returns thereon.
The office is provided with reading
circle diplomas for teachers. and also
for pupils. Reports Of reading done
by pupils should be made to this office
by the teachers. When a pupil has
earned q diploma or a seal, the teacher
should report it on cards which are
furnished Oh request by the office
The diplomas or seals as may be re-
CURED, will he sent out promptly when
the proper report has been received.
In view of the fact that there has
been shortage of teachers during the
past year. and that the prospects for
next year indicate a continued short
age. we take this opportunity to sug
gest to school board members the adj
visibility of employing teachers for
next year early. An effort will be
made to direct the attention of some
teachers from outside the county, to
our schools, with the hope that when
September 1920 arrives we may be able
to have all the schools in session. The
earlier the resident teachers of Rusk
county are under contract for next
year, the more probable it will be to
secure enough teachers from outside
the county to completely fill the
schools.

PREMIER'S SON-IN-LAW
Former Dillon County Man Married
Leygues' Daughter

The election of Georges Leygues
as Premier of France, says the Dill
! lon Herald, is of more than passing
interest to Dillon County folks be-
cause the new Premier is the father
in-law of Paul Rockwell, who spent
the greater portion of his boyhood
days near Lake View with his grand
father the late Enoch Ayers, Mr..
Rockwell is a nephew of Mr.. Elias
Ayers, of near Lake View and a
cousin of Prof. Ayers of the Agri-
cultural department of the Dillon
High School.
There were two brothers, Paul
and Kirvin, it will be recalled, was a
member of the aviation corps in
France, and was killed in action
during the early days of the war
Paul was an officer in the infantry
and received many wounds (which
forced him out of active duty. They

ing with the French.
Their mother, DR.. Anna Louise
Rockwell, is daughter of the late
Enoch Ayers, and lives at Winston
Salem, N. c., where she is engaged
in the practice of osteopathy. When
young woman she was married to
Rev. Mr.. Rockwell, who died some
years ago.
After the death of their father
the Rockwell brothers made theil
home with their grandfather unit
they were almost grown.
After receiving his discharge
from the French army Paul Rock

time was prominent in French poll

it would not be. polite to enter any
other way.
Mr.. Possum started up first and be-
hind him Mr.. Coon. Then came MT
Badger and Mr.. Rabbit behind him,
while MIR. Squirrel ran up the side OF
the ladder.
When they were about half way up
Mr.. Dog, hearing noise outside, went
to the door, and Of all the surprised
creatures you ever saw, the guests
were the most surprised, unless 1t
was Mr.. Dog. He forgot to bark for
a second, he was so taken back.
Then he recovered, and out Of the
door he went; but he was not used
to going down a ladder, and on the
first round he slipped and down he
went.
The guests started to jump just as
Mr.. Dog barked, but they were not
out Of the way when Mr.. Dog fell,
and down they all tumbled, Mr.. Dog,
Mr.. Possum, Mr.. Coon and Mr.. Bad
ger.
Mr.. Squirrel jumped, too, but ne
jumped for q limb Of the tree and
was not in the mixup. He said 1T was
the funniest sight he ever saw and
he had fine view from where he sat.
But Mr.. Rabbit said he was sure
his view Of the affair was the best,
for, being nearest the bottom of the
ladder when the tumble began, he was
up and out of the way when they all
came down on the ground.
"You could mot tell who was who
or which from the other" said MIR.
Rabbit, later talking it over with Mr..
Squirrel.
1t was long time before Mr.. Fox
could make the guests believe he had
not planned to have Mr., Dog at his
housewarming. but when Mr.. Squirrel
told them that he had seen the bones
on the floor and the kettle in the sink
they finally forgave Mr.. Fox.
He decided the ground floor was the
safest for him after all, and when he
was once again settled he gave
feast, and this time Mr.. Dog was not
there. (Copyright)
