patch. 1t is pleasant and agreeable
work, and it is not especially hard
work. 1t does not require any more
effort, supervision, or pains to pro-
duce satisfactory truck crop than
it does a cotton or a corn crop. 1t Is
an intensified, specialized business, of
course, and those who engage In 1t
should eXpect to give their best
thought, attention and energy TO 1t.
If they do this they Will IND 1t 1alr-
ly remunerative and profitable, and
they can lay the foundation OF a
business that will grow and expand
and furnish desirable and sat1sfac'
tory employment as well.
In selecting soils for truck crops
one should choose those that are
we'll drained and that contain rea-
sonable amount of sand, SO they can
ba worked as much as possible dur
ing relatively wet seasons. In TINS
mart of the United States I would
prefer to have some of two or three
types of soils; a section, for instance.
of relatively sandy soil. a section OF
part sand and loan. and q section or
relatively heavy clay of the ecu Zee
CLAW loan or a similar type. This
would practically give three areass
of soil adapted for cultivation at
different seasons Of the year, and
which would enable one to produce
a succession, as it were, OF truck
crops.
Truck soils, as rule, are not
rich soils. Yet they must pc cu ard
t tn.ra a liberal fertilization be-
comes essential and one cannot de-
pend altogether on commercial Ter
tilizers. Truck soils must be Kept
in good physical conditi Hard no 2an rnrs
or green crops must be utilized.
There is objection to the applica-
ton of manure because 1t may car
ry various diseases to the land ana
particularly true of number OF
very undesirable -fungous diseases.
Personally I would prefer to lay my
truck patch off so that part OF
it could each year be devoted to the
growth Of leguminous crops. Ihose
enrichment Of he land and then 1
would use supplemental fertilizers
in liberal amounts so as to pre-
serve a proper balance between the
plant food constituents.
truck soils must be kept in a high
the he necessity Of producing any
where from two to five crops off the
land during. a given season. TINS
first though, but little investig:a-
ton will show that this can be
readily accomplished and Is often
done as matter of fact in actual
practice.
Aside from an abundant supply Of
vegetable matter remember that the
soil must be kept well sweetened
through the use Of land plaster or
carbonate Of lime occasionally. 1t
must also contain an abundant sup
ply Of quickly available nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash. If these
elements are supplied and the soil
is in sufficiently good filth to hold
plenty of moisture aboundant crops
can be grown even when seasonal
conditions are not as favorable as
one might desire. The following
table indicates the plant food re-
quirements of some Of our principal
truck crops and is printed so that
our readers may be better advised
as to the kind and amount of the
fertilizing constituents they should
appl yto the soil.

Try Vinegar to Make
Meats Tender

This is the season of the year
when chickens and other fowl are
so far past the "broiler" stage that
they are apt to be tough. They
make none the less good eating. how
ever, if properly cooked. A tablespoon
of vinegar in the water in which
chicken is being cooked will make
the meat tender.
The same method may be advan-
tageously used in cooking other
meats than fowl.

DOGS KILL MANY SHEEP
AT THE DODGE RANCH
in CHARLEVOIX COUNTY

Sheep killing dogs almost exterminat-
ed the flock of sheep on the D'Ooge
farm, east of the city on the Boyne
City -Charlevoix road, Saturday morn
ing, killing IL out Of 13, not molesting
the lambs, as we are informed.
The sheep killers were heard at their
work and an effort made to shoot them
by Frank Bird, manager Of the farm,
but they escaped, although they ap-
peared again later in the day.
According to reports Hayes township
has been rather unfortunate In regards
to sheep killing dogs, the dogs also re-
ported to have killed about $40 worth
of turkeys recently.
The incident calls the attention of Of
ficials whose duty it is to see that the
law regarding dogs is rigidly enforced.
Owners Of dogs should not only pay
the tax but should keep their dogs un-
der leash at night. II is quite safe to
say that sheep killing will continue un-
til the dogs involved are done away

CHARLEVOIX COUNTY
HAS LOW DIPHTHERIA
DEATH RATE

Charlevoix County with population
of Is, 1888 had one death from diphtheria

this week by the Michigan department
of health.
Michigan's average death rate from
diphtheria in 1919 was 81 per 100000
inhabitants. In 1920 it increased to "a.

New Basis
For Promotions
in OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Important Announcement of
Interest To Parents.

Beginning this year the basis for pro-
noting pupils from one grade to an
other will be somewhat different than
heretofore. The perfection of scienti-
fic mental tests and measurements
which has come about during the past
few years plus the use of standardized
tests in reading, arithmetic, penman-
ship and spelling have made it possible
to secure far more nearly accurate
idea both of what the pupils are doing
and of what they are capable of doing.
1t will be remembered that recently
EX- Gov. Ferris came to the East Jor-
dan High School and gave the men,
bers of the senior class the Otis tests
and the mentimeter tests in making
study of what the seniors are capable
of doiug. Other tests are being given
the pupils from the third to eighth
grade inclusive in order to determine
scientifically what the pupils in those
grades are doing and what they are
capable of doing. The results of these
tests will be taken into consideration
in promoting pupils this year.
The great objection to promoting
pupils on their marks alone as basis is
that different teachers do not mark the
same. Moreover, pupils who are doing
barely passing work are frequently ad-
vanced with the hope that the advance
ment will be a stimulus sufficient to
make them do better work. The natu-
raj ability of the pupils is not known.
Mental tests are showing that many
pupils are not capable of doing advan-
ced work. In our own school this
year, mental tests show that at least
one third of the seventh grade pupils
cannot do eighth grade work. They
also show that there are half dozen
pupils who can easily do ninth grade
work. In the past pupils, who have
been doing the grade work very easily
have been in many cases able to do
more thau the regular grade work. On
the other hand backward pupils unable
to do the regular grade work have taxi
en- too much of the teachers. By gra-
ding according to the mentality of the
pupils both bright and dull can be
placed where they will accomplish the
most
While the use of mental tests is COM
paratively new in East Jordan, never
theless those tests are now in wide nse
in the most progressive school systems
of the state and country.
