SURVEY OF INDIANA
SCHOOLS TO COVER
8 COUNTIES, 3 CITIES

A statewide school survey which
will cover nine representative coun-
ties of Indiana. and include three
cities. will be started on the third
week in January, and continue fox one
week, under the direction of the Car
negie foundation of New York City.
School superintendent from 80 cit
les and counties of this state will take
part in the survey which will be
made by teams of nine workers, each
headed BY representative of the Car
negie foundation At the end of a
weeks time, the data collected will be
turned over to the leader, and he will
present il at the New York offices,
there it will be compiled and a con-
Solidated report returned 10 this state.
Forty city and so county superin-
,endents have signified their willing
ness 10 give weeks time to the
survey. Each of these workers will

are entirely unknown, in order to be
sure of an unbiased criticism.
Randolph Good County.
Randolph county has been desig
mated as one of the good counties in
which the survey will be made In
providing for this survey, the state
legislature designated three of the
best. three of the poorest and three
Of the medium counties of the state
as far as school facilities are con-
Cerned
In this way it is the hope of the
officials to get an average report from
all parts of the state. South Bend,
Marion and Evansville are the cities
which will be surveyed.
This survey, when completed, Will
give US means of comparing meth
DDS of teaching, equipment, and the
like said a prominent local official
in discussing the matter. The re
suits of this survey will decide the
comparative standing of schools with
in the state, and also will show how
they stand as compare with schools
Of other states.
At the last session of the legisla-
ture, the school survey was turned
over to commission of five men, of
whom Charles Curry, president of In
diana state normal school is the head.
AS soon as the Carnegie foundation
has tabulated the figures from the
survey. the report will be turned back
TO this commission, and it will then

the south when they tried to reduce
cotton planting" Mr.. Page thinks that
it will take much more of the inferior
corn grown this year 10 do the feed
ing, and that much of the surplus in
sight will vanish before planting time
The Other Angle
In the meanwhile farm bureau Off
Gals and many others are insisting
that corn belt farmers must get down
to brass lacks and cut production or
grow corn at loss.
One speaker at the agricultural
forum held at Chicago Wednesday,
said: I'VE are facing the most seli-I
Gus emergency of a generation, an
emergency that calls for bold and ag
gressive action. Two things that viii
keep farmers from selling next years
crop at d loss of 25 cents bushel will
be to increase the demand for corn
or decrease the supply" This speak
er cited the statement by Secretary
Wallace, who said: IF we produce
more than we require, and do not use
the same intelligence in regulating
production that every manufacturer
uses, we must inevitably sell our crops
below cost"
Are Shipping Sweet Potatoes.
Nine cars of sweet potatoes, aver
aging 1,40O bushels to the car, have
been shipped f.om Decker, a little
town near Vincennes, in the past few
days. This is part of a Chicago order
for 20 carloads. The potatoes are

Of Interest to Sheepmen
/ News of Importance to wool grow

the American Wooden company and
states that this concern has completely

"nub' of this statement is that the
subsidiary. known as the American
Wooden Products company, is to be
dissolved, this being the concern which
recently acquired the output of a num-
! Der of European mills. This action.
we Judge, is to be taken on account
of the prospective tariff on foreign
woods and manufactured wool products.
This should result in increased de-
mand for American wool and give more

1t being among the possibilities that
YOU will have some snow shoveling to
do before the first of June, a man who
sells shovels advises that you grease
both sides of the blade before hopping
to it. This applies to wooden as wei!
as steel shovels, and makes the work
much easier. He says the idea has
not been patented and anybody hav-
ing both grease and shovel, and a
reasonable supply of snow, can sc
right ahead and enjoy himself.
So far as this immediate farming
section is concerned. the passage OF
the Russian relief bill and the buying
of corn for shipping to the hungry
Russians, will put no new money in
circulation. The government appro
priation will be spent in the large
western markets, and these prospec-
tive purchases already have hardened
the price of corn.
AS n matter of fact we have little
corn to ship out of Wayne county; il
is needed by the feeders. So true is
this that the corn donated to the Near
East relief is mostly being turned into
money at the elevators, the money
on reaching relief headuarters to be
spent for corn, seed wheat and flour.
In some instances farmers are agree
ing to take the donated corn at the
market price, and it is really sold be
fore delivery. We understand that
one farmer living near Economy ar
ranged to buy all the corn donated in
his township. the same to be delivered
to his farm instead of to the elevator.
Senator Kenyon's Views.
Senator w. S. Kenyon. of Iowa,
says there is urgent need for prac-
teal farmer on the federal reserve
board. This farmer should have a
thorough grasp of the needs of the
farmer in respect to loans and credits,
and the agricultural bloc will insist on
such an appointment. He says that
a bill will be drawn up for this pur-
pose. and although there will be
strong objection, | believe it will
pass"
TWO Other Bills Proposed
According to Senator Kenyon the
bloc" will present a bill covering co
operative marketing, and another re
Iating to some new form of agricul
tural credits, after that has been duly
discussed and worked out. What is
needed, says the senator, is credits
| ranging from nine months to two
years. short term credits are not
! adequate for the farming industry
Thinks Task Difficult

Much of the intermittent selling
probably originated from corporate in

GRAIN, PROVISIONS
HIGHER after RUSS
RELIEF BILL PASSED

CHICAGO, Dec. 24.-With $4,000,
GOO in sight to purchase American
foodstuffs for Russia, all grain and
provisions this week have increased
N value. Compared with a week ago,
wheat this morning was up 1$4c to
SIC busheI; corn gained 17sc to
CSC; oats Vase to IA 01asc; pork,
lard and ribs, 15r 20 32c
But before and after the actual
signing of the Russian RELIEF bill the
wheat market gave evidence of being
bullishly affected by the measure.
Confidence in immediate government
purchasing was manifest and prices
made a rapid response to increased
buying, which, however, was partly
based on cold weather and on fears
that lack o. snow protection in the
southwest might result in crop dam
age. Heavy profit taking sales on the
ensuing advance led to reactions but
for the most part the setbacks were
transient. At times, the strength of
prices at Winnipeg acted as a stimu-
lus here, and so did better milling de

however. failed to Justify hopes OF

notwithstanding that cold weather
was bearish in regard to corn.
