1t Pays To Go To School
Every farmer owes it to himself
and his family to find a little time to
go to school every winter-to read
5, 10, or 20 bulletins that win help
him to make better crops, better live
stock, to carry on his operations with
less exhausting strain on himself.
1t should be mentioned, too, that
this chimney-corner college of agri-
culture is co-educational. A large
number of the bulletins are devoted
TO household subjects. They contain
information that will enable the far
mer's wife better to carry her half
of the load-to feed the family bet
ter with less work, to realize more
for the portion of the farm output
that under her direction, to
have the minimum of inconvenience
of comfort out of ia thousand
in the house and to get the maximum
that viii help along in making
life pleasanter and more profit
able.

CHIMNEY 0RNER
SCHOOL OF AGRI.
READING MATTER FOR FARM
FOLKS SENT FREE FOR
THE ASKING

Old pioneer stories tell of boys
who, after working all summer in the
clearing, attended school in the win
ter. Conditions have changed but
little today so far as spare time for
study in the summer is concerned,
but winter still offers its %opportun-
tiles, no matter hqw old or young the
farmer is he can generally find time
at this season for a few extra ticks
at reading up" on some phase of
farming that will come handy next
year.
A School At Every Fireplace
His schoolhouse may well be in his
own chimney corner, and December
should mark the beginning of the
session of this school. He has a
wide range Of subjects to pick from
and is bound to find something on
practically every question of farming
with which he is concerned. Dur
ing the year there have been printed
a considerable number of good text
books on farming. The United States
Department of Agriculture, as well
as the various State agricultural col
leges, has embodied in bulletins the
results of long and patient labor on
various things pertaining to farming
and have put into type facts that will
dollars to the farmer who
learns them and puts them into prac-
tice.
Of course this chimney corner
of agriculture allows its stu
dents much leeway. The curriculum
is largely elective. The farmer may
study one subject and leave another

COMMERCIAL CLUB PLANS
CIV Charles Gordon)

During the past week the direct
ors and secretary have been engaged
in laying out plans and discussing
methods of accomplishing results in
matters affecting the city and com
munity during the coming year. They
firmly believe that a live Commercial
Club is one of the best assets a COM
munity can possess. Behind every
successful business there is the per-
sonality of some man; behind every
forward-looking community is an or
ganized body of visioned men. The
men and women of Wolf Point, united
in a common endeavor can accomp-
lish anything in reason for their COM
munity.
One of the directors of the Club
will take in tickets at the Coliseum
at the Benefit Ball given for the
needy on the evening of the 21st.
After the ball this director and a lady
to be named by the Civic League will
take charge of the proceeds and see
that only the worthy are aided from
the funds raised from the sale of tick
cts.

work. Both are members of the Club.
At the close of the year the Dir
ectors offer to all their belief, which
is:
Il believe that l owe service to my
community because:
:" The place where l live and bring
my family and from WHICH I re-
all that l have, is the most i'm
p~ortant place in the world to me.
"Progressiveness is a constant eff
fort to develop, to make things bet
ter and more resirable.
" l BELIEVE that if I set an eX-
ample in these matters, many others
will join me; and that we can make

ness may dictate. But there will BIZ
enough bulletins that are Of interes-
to him to make a pretty full course
of study. If he has neglected his ed.
ucation and isn't 'up to his grade
there may be a great deal more than
he al handle in one winter.
The Department Of Agriculture
has been publishing bulletins for a
great many years. Hundreds of
Farmers Bulletins have been issued
and every one of them discusses
something that means money or bet
ter living to a large class of farmers.
Many of the subjects have been sup
plemented and localized by State ag-
encies-the Agricultural college or
the State department of Agriculture.
There is no reason why any far
mer may not have all the scientific
information that exists on all phases
of agriculture that mean anything
in his particular operations. All he
has to do is to read and study by his
own fireside. If he needs tutoring
there is the county agent, whom he
can consult when he goes to town on
Saturday-or he might possibly have
The agent out to supper and a session

Lester Mccoy of Garden City.
while in Liberal Monday, called on
Chamber of Commerce in the interest
of the road between the two cities.
Mr.. Mccoy says Finney county is
preparing to build hard surfaced
road from Garden City south through
the sand hills for several miles, on
the Great Plains Highway route,
which, he says, has been approved
by the State Highway Commission
for federal aid. Seward county can
secure federal aid to the extent of
go per cent of the cost of any road
it wishes to build, provided it can
get the approval of the State High
way Commission. Let's look into
this matter.
