culture Department of the Hope
High School, gave two demonstra-
tions, one on Grain Grading. the
other on the Babcock Milk Test, at
Finley for the benefit Of the teachers
attending thJ County Institute in
that city. These two exercises are
required by law to be taught to the
children of the upper grades and
high school. This year. our County
Superintendent, Miss Raaen, is going
to see to it that every school in the
county will teach Grain Grading and
the Babcock Milk Test. Last year
only one school in the county used
the Grain Grader and Babcock Milk
Tester. We are going forward in the

The farmers problems appear, all
OF sudden, to have become the lead
Ing national problem. Congress is
talking Of little else than legislation
aimed to help the agricultural inter-
ests. The bankers are busy explain
ing why they can't lend the farmer
the cash he needs. The plight of the
farmer Is the chief topic Of discussion
In railroad circles and among business
men at all the big markets. Farmers
themselves are organizing everywhere
to force the prices of their products
up to point where selling will not
mean loss to them.
Meanwhile what the individual
farmer needs is not talk. but cash.
Certain things he must buy right
along for himself and his family. He
can't wait for the national debate to
run down.
In this situation farmers who are
hard pressed for cash may be over
looking the fact that all around them
money Is growing on the trees" and
the crop Is just waiting to be ,cked.
This is almost literally true In 9TH
er words the farmer can harvest an
other crop-his timber. All over the
country thousands Of farmers are
turning to this immediate source of
