Arrangements are being completed
for the County Spelling Contest
which will probably. be held in the
auditorium of the Rawlins High
School April list. 1929. The date has
not beer definitely set, but it will in
all probability be the first day of
April. All pupils in the county be
low the High School will be given an
opportunity to compete for a place in
the County Spelling Contest. Every
school in the county is entitled to an
entry in the contest. The successful
contestant will 90 to Douglas to the
State Fair to represent the county in
the State Spelling Contest at the time
OF the State Fair in September. The
successful contestant at the State
Fair will win a gold medal and the
school which he represents will be
presented with the fine Victrola. The
one who wins second place in the
state contest will be presented with
a silver medal. Much interest is man
ifested throughout the state and
county in this contest the first of its
kind in the state.
Schools throughout the county will
hold preliminary contests, with other
schools in their vicinity and a gener-
al community interest will be devel-
oped in the schools.
The support and interest of all the
patrons OF the schools in the county
is desired in this work, which it is
felt will make far better spoilers and
better schools.
At the time of the spelling contest
n County exhibit of work done in the
schools will also be held. All schools
are urged to send lin some Of their
work for this exhibit. Such exhibits
as meet the requirements of the
State Fair Educational Exhibit will
be forwarded to Douglas at the time
of the State Fair. Prizes are offered
for these exhibits and we hope that
Carbon County will be we'll repre-
sented and that their exhibits will
claim some OF the prizes Last year
Carbon County had two exhibits at
the fair and both won prizes. One
was the Health Poster contest. which
was won by a pupil OF the Hanna
modelling in the bread dough which
was won by the Third Grade OF the
Rawlins schools.
1t is also planned at the time OF
the County Contest to organize a
School Trustees Association and a
school system in the county and for
cooperation in the schools of the
county.
We hope to have every school in
the county represented at the time
of this meeting, which we will call
Better& Schools Day for Carbon
County.

Dolls eyes hays.s romantic history,

UNUSUALLY BIG SALES
OF FARM PROPERTIES

Unusually heavy sales of farm
properties are reported this spring
by leading dealers in that kind of
real estate. Several reasons are
given for this increase in business,
but the most notable is an extra
ordinary change that has taken
place within the farm business it.
self.
Formerly there were few trans
fers of farm property in the spring
after the season had become too
late to- do any spring planting.
Men who wanted farms would not
buy them because they could not
get their crops started in time to
provide themselves with either a
winters supply for themselves and
their families, or assure themselves
of an income from their products
in the harvesting season.
!, These handicaps have been over
come by including Growing crops
with farm properties sold in the
spring and summer and harvested
crops with farms sold in the winter.
The result has been that this

Inc. reports it's sales for May have
