SPECIAL POrATO WORK
In IN JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL

The agricultural classes Of the
Junior high school are studying
potatoes with zest and zeal. Types
OF every kind OF potato available are
studied In detail. The students are
learning all the secrets Of success
full farming in the San Luis valley.
by asking the farmers themselves.
by studying pamphlets and bulletins
sent out by the state agricultural
college and from the u. S. Dept. OF
Agriculture. and also by giving the
potato plant and its culture very
thoro investigation through their
text books.
County Agent c. ID. Hyatt lec.ured
to the classes Monday. He explain
ed many interesting things concern
ing the potato.
From all these sources the stu
dent can learn more about raising
potatoes than by merely reading
over their text books.
The principal, Miss DIETRICH. and
Mr. GARNER. the agriculture teacher
are planning the training OF the
Junior high boys and girls in such
a manner that in ten years they can
step into the shoes of Messrs. Hurd.
Barber. Price. Gibson and Liiley
and reap the benefits which only a
trained potato buyer can reap. No
just minute! Not every Junior
high student will be potato buyer.
The majority will go out to raise
such potatoes as will add greater
fame to the already famous San
Luis valley potatoes.
