COUNTY AGENTS NOTES
AND SUGGESTIONS

The work of the orchard demon
strators is going on under the di-
rection of the County Agent. Last
week Judge ]. T. Stamper sprayed
his orchard the third spraying. A
mixture of bordeaux mixture and
arsenate Of lead was used.
Boys and girls are as anxious as
ever to get started in the standard
poultry business. About seventy
five settings of eggs were placed
with club members last week.
Now is the time for parents to
plan to keep their children in school
this fall during fodder pulling
time by sowing some soy beans for
forage and thus get away from the
wasteful practice of fodder pulling.
Fodder pulled for the stocks while
the corn is yet green damages the
yield and quality of the corn much
more than the worth of the fodder
for forage. The boy or girl who
must stop school for fodder pulling
is not only learning a wasteful prac
tice but is being handicapped in an
effort to get an education. Parents
who want to keep their children in
school this fall may SOW either soy
beans or cowpeas for hay and have
a better feed for horses or cattle
and at the same time avoid taking
the children out of school to pull
fodder.
Reasons for sowing soy beans or
COW peas will be published next
week.

GROW CROP OF LATE CABBAGE
Land That Has Been Utilized for Peas,
Potatoes or Beans 10 Usually
Made Use Of.

Late cabbage is usually grown on
land that has been utilized for peas,
early potatoes, or beans during the
early part Of the season. The seed
should be sOwn in a seed box or. a
special outdoor bed four to six weeks
before the p,aats are needed for set
ting. The seed should not be sOwn too
thickly, and II is a good plan TO thin
the plants 10 an even stand in the seed
bed, so they will develop uniformly.
The land On which late cabbage is
grown should be well fertilized, and
the plants set lS To 20 inches apart in
rows three feet apart.

SOUR STOMACH
INDIGESTION
Thedford's Black-Draught Highly
Recommended by a Tennessee
Grocer for Troubles Re-
sulting from Torpid
Liver.

East Nashville, Tenn The effic-
iency Of Thedford's Black.Draught, the
genuine, herb, liver medicine. is
vouched for by Mr.. W. N. Parsons, q
grocer Of this city. 1T Is without
doubt the best liver medicine, and
don't believe could get along without
It. I take It for sour stomach, head
ache. bad liver, indigestion, and all
other troubles that are the result Of
a torpid liver.
"I have known and used It for years.
and can and do highly recommend It
to every one. I won't go to bed with
out It In the house. It will do all Il
claims to do. can't say enough for
It."
Many other men and women through
out the country have found Black
Draught Just as Mr. Parsons describes
valuable In regulating the liver to
Its normal functions, and In cleansing
the bowels OF impurities.
Thedford's Black -Draught liver medi-
cine is the original and only genuine.
Accept no limitations or substitutes.
Always ask for Thedford's. E@

Our States
By JONATHAN BRACE
I.-DELAWARE
TO DE L e
d. !: Z: !: !: !. !: i. !. ]. ] ]
Nxn ~ UNM falls the honor
H1tkllC4nf1N, EN Of being the
HI MEsN first Of the
NNkhf2&lUS original thlr-
MAN/ssN teen states.
~ ~ December z,
1887, 1t officially adopted the Con.
stitutiOn and thus was made a
beginning Of our present Federal
government. According to the
seventh article Of the Constitu-
tion, however, II was necessary
for nine states to rntify II before
II actually came into force. So
It was not until the following
June, by which time eight other
states had accepted the Consti-
tuition, that the United States Of
America actually came into be-
ing.
The early history Of Delaware
was a varied one. 1t started In
1888 when a small party Of
Swedes settled at the mouth Of
the Delaware river and called II
New Sweden. In 1855, Peter
Stuyvesant, the governor Of the
Dutch colony OF New Neither
lands, annexed this territory. But
1t did not long remain Dutch,
for in 1864 the English took
possession. When Pennsylvania
was decided to william Penn he
desired access to the seacoast
and at his urgent request Della
ware was transferred to Penn's
proprletorship. From the be-
ginning Of the eighteenth cen
tury, however, Delaware had its
separate legislature, and at the
time Of the Revolution 1t be-
came an independent state.
Delaware is next to the small
est of our states, having an area
OF only 2,370 square miles. Its
participation In presidential elec-
tlons is limited TO three electors.
This is arranged according TO
population. Each state is entitled
to the same number of presiden-
tial electors as II has members
Of congress, so the influence Of
the different states In voting for
the President varies from Della
wares three electors to New
York's As.
As to the derivation Of the
name Delaware, this was appro-
priately given to the state from
the river. which in turn was
named after the bay and the bay
was called Delaware in honor OF
Lord Delaware who was COVER
nor OF the Virginia colony in
1910.

Men and women occupants of cars

TEACHERS RATINGS.
Supt. Ballou Says They Must Be
In by June 80.

Rating officials of the District public
schools have been notified by Supt.
Frank w. Rallou to report by June 30.
or as soon thereafter as practicable, Tor
an efficiency rating for each teacher on
proba tionary or permanent tenure IN
the school system. These ratings
should be reported on the form similar
to the one used last year, which carries
the instructions for reporting ratings,
Last year DR. Ballou agreed. on the
suggestion of certain rating ofhclals
that teachers might be rated only sat
isfactory" or "unsatisfactory" If such
persons would state in writing that
they are not candidates for promotion
TO any higher position or salary. w nile
some confusion and embarra Ssment nave
already resulted from teachers rated ac-
cording to this arrangement neverthe-
less the superintendent is willing to
continue the practice. provided teachers
request it in writing as heretofore
DR. Ballou desires that teachers be
advised that the official records IN ms
office will be used as partial basis Tor
considering promotion in salary or po-
sition. and that a rating of ''satisfac-
tory will ne considered no higher than
a ra atiDg of '.pasSaD ole" or fair The
Superintendent presumes to urge that
rating officials make this matter very
clear to all teachers anu W dSSui Z
teachers that they must assume fuil re-
sponsihilty for any embarrassments
which may arise attendant upon their
having been rated as satisfactory.
TIE Teachers Council has had under
consideration during the past year the
forms on which ratings are reported.
and a committee of the Teachers Coun-
ell has been formed for the considera-
tion of the whole plan of rating teach
ers II is expected that this committee
will report sufficiently early next year
to make il possible for incorporation of
their recommended ton in the plan OF
rating which will be used next year.
