SCHOOL CHILD AIDS

If your child shows a disinclination to school work or seems to be out of harmony with the class or the reprimand or threat of punishment. Try to impress him with the advan- tages an education gives to a man or woman. Teach him the sense of personal responsibility-this cannot be two strongly stressed. Make him understand that he Is the one who gains or loses as he improves or neglects his opportunities.
 Defects in the school syllabus and inefficiency in the teacher, whether imaginary with him or real facts, must be tactfully swept aside and the pupil must be strongly impressed with the fact that he, himself, is master of his own destiny as far as education is concerned.
 The parent who can firmly instil this idea into the mind of the child will give him legacy that will not only carry him successfully through school-it will be an incentive to at- tain the magma cum lauda" from the college and will place high value on personal effort. It may perhaps elevate the aims and ideals through out life.
 Take the time to glance at the fig ure and writing" which the first grade pupil so eagerly exhibits when he comes home from school. Mothers appreciation will mean much to the child and wise criticism will be help ful. This individual aid. which 1t is impossible for the teacher to give, will enable the child to make more 1VntI Gta @1 tgIa the desirable habit of neat work In five minutes per day a mother can give a child wonderful help, and to secure mothers complete approval will be an incentive to produce per feet work. To achieve good results do not attach the much desired star or your signature to the paper to des ignate your approval unless you are really satisfied with the improvement displayed in the work.

things took q change for the good

El Centre had more than one
chance to stop the fearful slaught-

that no ball game is won until the

BRIGHT FUTURE
FOR IMPERIAL
VALLEY DIARIES
BY r. H. CARY,
Manager, California Central
Creameries

This is the season of the year
when Imperial Valley dairymen
should be more optimistic than ever
because it is tie eve Of our heavy
producing season of buttcrfat. In
combination with this, there are
features that indicate a successful
and profitable season for Imperial
Valley dairymeh
1t is estimated that on March J,
this year, there were approximately
100000 pounds of butter held in
storage at the principal consuming
points Of the East as compared to
approximately 15,000,000 pounds on
March ] of last year. The amounts
held in storage at Western points
are negligible.
During the last 80 or 60 days
some California butter has been
shipped to the Eastern markets,
which, of course, has had the eff
feet Of raising the level of Califor-
MIA butter prices. Many of us have
read of the severe winter weather
the Middle Western districts have
recently experienced which will
have a tendency to shorten the pro-
duction of butterfat in those dis
tricts for the next few weeks at
least.
The coast districts of California
had an abundance of early rains,
but the late rainfall has not mater.
ialized, in fact so much so that the
small grains are reported to have
suffered somewhat.
Prices Go Up
All of these conditions are reflect.
ed in the prevailing prices for but
terfat, which during the month OF
March, this year, averaged 90 cents
per pound higher than prices during
the month of March last year. Es
timating the production of butterfat
in Imperial Valley at approximate
ly 10000 pounds daily, approx
matcly $56,544.00 more money viii
be distributed among Imperial Val
ley dairymen during March of this
year as compared to March of last
year.
Judging from the above figures
and facts, it would seem to the writ
er that Imperial Valley dairymer
may safely look forward to sue
cessful season so far as market:
and feed are concerned. They
should put forth an effort to i'm
prove the dairy herds through COW
testing and breeding, and make sure
that reserve supply of feed is put
up for the short season.
