be part of the days fun. There
were no results other than the con-
tact of the water. Before noon ev-

vocational agriculture, under the di-
rection of the vocational instructor,
Herbert r. Damisch, made an in
spection tour of the boys projects.
Since 1t was impossible to cover all
the projects in one day, different
types of projects were visited The.
following were visited: Glenn Bach
elor. Wilmer Newberry, Virgil Med
ley, Lawson Blackmer, John Creigh-
ton, Herman Mills. Bernard Swift,
Herbert and Hugh Robinson and
Chester Mills. 1t was found that
some of the projects are producing
real results. At this time Virgil
Medley and John Crei ghton have,
probably proved the best results.
Virgil Medley has RAISED 435 out of
500 White Leghorn laby chicks,
while John Creighton has very
good field Of Irish Cobl Ter potatoes.
At noon everyone had picnic lunch
on Robinson's lawn at Luke Chute.
A lot of enthusiasm was evidenced
in the all day affair and competi~
ton seemed to be the keynote
among the boys in the projects, in
order to obtain best results.

PRESIDENT IN MOVIES TO AID
GOOD ROADS
Ford Film Includes Coolidge and
White House.

The President of the United States
is so much interested in good roads
that he has appeared in a movie film,
which is good road propaganda,
sponsored by Henry Ford. The
hero of the little two-reeler is a
country boy, who is presented by
the President with a scholarship for
a prize essay. Later the boy becomes
a civil engineer, devoting his life to
the building of better roads in order
to make his section of the country a
better place in which to live.
President Coolidge is so familiar
with farms and farm life that he has
an intimate and first-hand acquaint-
ance with what good roads mean to
the farmer, and coming, as he does,
from one of the pioneer good road
States of the Union, knows person
ally what hard surface highways do
for those who live along them.

They then Travelled over the valley
of the River st. Peter TO its junction
with The ASsinibOine, having ascer-
tanned, agreeably TO their instructions,
the point at which the forty-ninth de-
gee Of north latitude, the northern
0oul dairy of the United States, crosses
that river. Thus far they had gone by
horses, but at this place they EN-
barked on board bark canoes, in which
they reached Lake Superior Here they
exchanged their canoes for a batteau
and, amid severe gales and storiss
with snow. proceeded to Macklnaw,
where they met revenue cutter, which
took them TO Detroit. There they
boarded the steamboat Superior and
landed al Buffalo.
Pursuing their journey they found

MADE HIS GARDEN PAY WELL
Minnesota Lad Laid His Plans Early
and Carried Them Out
With Skill.

Garden plans started during Christ
mas vacation and carried out the fol
lowing summer earned a Minnesota
club boy a net profit of more than
800 and the state garden club cham
piOnship for last year. Obtaining a
location for his garden early, this
club boy, Willard Weeks of Wlnona,
MINI, drew plan of his plat, indi-
eating the place for each variety of
seed, so that when he had the ground
prepared in the spring there was no
delay in laying off and planting the
rows. The first products of the gar
den were ready for use q days after
planting. From that time on, through
out the summer, this young gardener
not only supplied his family with all
the fresh vegetables needed, but, learn
ing how to prepare his products for
market, he built up an extensive trade
among his nelghbors. Finding the price
for late products low, he used the
training he had acquired in canning
club work to put up tomatoes, beets
and corn, pickles and preserves for
winter use. At the end of the season
his records showed the total value OF
vegetables used at home, canned, and
stored for winter, and sold, to be Sl35,
produced at an expense of $3.50.
