BACK YONDER

The thrill that comes once in a
lifetime tingles through the veins
OF William.alQass, driver OF Fire
Engine No. , at West Newton,
Mass.
Wandering down side street,
Jones passes the old Davis gram
mar school. 1t is being torn down
Among the wreckage he finds the
little desk at which he sat, years
ago. as a schoolboy. Memories
food up as William recalls the gold
e. DAYS when he was plain Bill, 4
snail. disillusioned lad in kne,'
pants.
So he sits meditating. A photo
grapher with imagination chances
along. clicks his camera-and so we
get the story.
Do YOU remember the little desk
YOU sat at. back yonder in the past,
in your early school days Next
time YOU are in the old home town
hunt up the old school house and
sit-or try to--at your former desk
You will get the shock OF your
lie, and you'll wonder how YOU
ever managed to squeeze i'll. 1t
will seem ridiculously small, that
little desk. And it will impress you
with the vast and mysterious
changes that take place in us hu-
mans during life.
Doesn't it start YOU thinking
the ink bottle with rubber stopper,
the gum stuck under the desk, the
place you carved your initials, the
dusty map on the wall, blackboard
crasers. teachers pointer and the
cloakroom where bad boys were
senti
The old school house, in many
cases. has long since disappeared
At the hands OF wreckers. But it
cannot be torn down in memory.
/, is good that We can keep the
old schoolroom and its associations
in memory. and that We can turn
to them occasionally. The recol-
lection is refreshing. for many OF
~ left the best part OF our real
selves back yonder. Time has mel
lowed some, soured and hardened
others.
II j., rather startling, when you
think back over those days and
make comparisons with now.
How many OF your childhood
deals. ambitions and illusions have
YOU managed to cling TO, despite
repeated attacks by that arch-robber
the grim reality OF mature liie'
And what wouldn't you give 10
know what's become OF all those
little lads and lasSies who learned
;heir letters with you;
Ii there is anything more pathetic
and heartrending than the battered
little old school desk we have ye;
to hear OF it.

LACK OF SEED PRODUCTION.

There are more consumers than producers of seed. Many farmers produce enough seed to supply the needs of hundreds of other farmers. The average farmer, therefore, is more interested in knowing where to buy seed than in knowing where to sell it. The first source of supply to which he commonly looks is his neigh bor or local dealer. He is more or less familiar with the character Of the weeds on his neiShbor's farm and usually prefers to plant homegrown seed. He knows the local dealer and feels that adjustments can be made Quently, however, the farmer can ob- tain better seed at a lower cost from growers or shippers in surplus pro ducing areas or from distant seeds men.
