DANIELSON

Statistics supplied Wednesday morn ing by Supervisor Horace F. Turner show that there has not been any material re- duction in the number of children att tending the elementary schools of the town of KIlingly, though some looked for a material shrinkage in the registra- ton because of industrial depression in town during the past year.
 In the Danielson school 260 pupils are registered as against 253 in May of this year. At Goodyear there are 151 now as against 133 in May. At Dayville 121 have registered as against 126 in May. The Center school, with 61 re- gistered in May. opened with 57 on Tues day. East Killingly's school now has AS registered as against 37 in May. This increase is at least partly accounted for by the fact that the school in the Sparks district will not be opened this year and pupils from the territory it served will study at East Killingly, a plan that has been advocated for years.
 At the school on the West Side, IA were registered and an additional teach CT provided to properly care for the in creased number of pupils. Figures for Attawaugan and Ballouville and other schools not mentioned in killingly were not available Wednesday, but the regi- stration throughout the town is close to what it was last year and will increase for the next few days. as some pupils in- variably do not get to school on the the opening days of a term.
 Principal Erenst R. Warren of Killing. ly High school said Wednesday morning that 165 are registered there, an increase over last year. and there is chance that this figure will be further increased by belated Tegistrants. Principal Warrer also made known his desire that publi city be given to the fact that gir student would be pleased of an oppor tunity of employment for afternoons ant Saturdays in order that she be enabled

 Millions of people use this in- stant relief and quickly rid them selves of throbbing corns.

LOWER FREIGHT RATES
ON LUMBER SOUGHT

Efforts of the Southern Hard
wood Traffic Association to secure
an adjustment Of the rates on South
ern states lumber which were ad-
vaneed by authority Of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission last
summer, together with rates Of all
other commodities, has now been
successfully eentered in Cincinnati.
Following a meeting of the menu
bers OF the Cincinnati district of the
association Friday, it was announced
that Theodore Davis, Of Columbus,
Ohio, had been appointed district
manager Of the Cincinnati office and
that he would Immediately take steps
q see the readiustment Of the rates
which local lumbermen declare are so
ligh that low grade lumber, which
constitutes so per cent. of the pro-
ducts Of the southern forests, can
not be shipped TO the market with
profit
The Southern Hardwood Traffic
Association, whose membership ham
dies more than 100000 cars Of lum-
Der annually, has requested the ex-
eeutives Of the important trunk line
carriers serving the lumber shippers
of the Southern states country to
adjust the rates 50 as to permit the
movement Of the low grade stock
particularly.
j. H. Townshend, Of Memphis,
Tenn, secretary Of the association,
declares that a conference Of forest
product shippers will be held in
Cincinnati within the next two weeks
with traffic executives of the rail-
roads to thresh out the question Of
an adjustment Of the rates with
great promises Of success. Cincin-
matt has been selected as the meet
ing place, he said, because of the
fact that it is one Of the largest dis
tributing centers Of hard lumber in
the country, being the gateway to
the South as railroad terminal and
because this city is centrally located
between the eastern and southern
lumber producing territories.

recently had an opportunity to inter-
view q number Of Davidson county
farmers individually and to hear
them express themselves at a meet
ing with regard to agricultural ex-
tension work.
With unanimity Of opinion the
farmers said: aThe county agent is
our confidential and business. adviser
Our interest is his interest. Who
wants to return to bull-tongue plows
or scrub livestock? Who wants to
live in an unorganized community.
Who wants to neglect the practical
eduEation being offered boys and
girls 2" These ideas permeaJed the
entire assembly.
Then later the editor says when the
Nashville Livestock Exchange and
the Tennessee Beef Breeders AS
ISOLATION assembled for their annual
festival, all united in singing praises
to the county and home agents for
the boys and girls club work at the
Nashville Fat Stock Show, which
played no inconspicuous part. These
agents are affiliated with an organi-
cation that is now enjoying world
wide distinction. The work of the
county and home agent, assisted by
specialists, is very largely respon-
sible for the fact that the American
farmer is now leading the world in
agricultural development. Represen-
tatives from many foreign countries
are now studying this work as pro
noted by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture that a similar
system may be put into operation all
over the world.

WANTS TO QUIT COTTON

or anything else? ?"
Natural conditions always indicate
what should be the leading farm in
terest in any section. Nature has
made the southern part of the United
States the best country for cotton
that there is known to exist on
earth. Any effort to entirely re-
verse the natural conditions will
finally fail. The fact is that there is
not too much cotton. Foreign coun-
tries would like to take all our cot
ton at fair price, for their mills
are idle from lack Of the raw ma
terial. and vet they are too poor to
buy it unless they could get credit
for a good deal Of time. Europe
would eobble up the cotton if she
could. But without the cash ard re-
tarded by the extro cost Of exchange.
she can not buv, The conditions will
certainly BASS ere long.
What you should do is not to
abandon cotton. You say you want
to quit making your farm only a
cotton patch. That is right. Quit
making cotton, the only thing you
have to sell. Scatter your eggs into
a number of baskets, SO that if one
gets broken you can still have the
others. That is, grow less land in
cotton and bring the land up to MAX
ing more cotton an acre. The more
you get per acre the less it casts to
make it. In short, go to farming
and stop being a mere cotton planter.
Grow some cotton to sell. some oats
to sell, some corn to sell and feed
some cattle and hogs to make ma
nure and to sell, grow hay to feed.
Keep poultry as a matter of course,
but drop all idea of jumping into a
poultry farm. Keep plenty of hogs
and grow plenty of crops for them to
gather for themselves and get
good price for your corn in smoked
bacon and hams. III short, farm IN
a rood rotation planned for the
building up Of your land in pro-
duction, and with money coming in
at different times in the year, the
price of cotton will not bear so
heavily on you as it does when YOU
have nothing to sell but cotton, which
has cost you three times as much as
YOU can get for it. know man
