WITH TWENTY-FOUR HIG H
SCHOOLS operating in Delaware, the
cost to maintain this particular de-
partment of our public schools is in
creased to the point of revolt. There
is no just cause or necessity for
maintaining more than six or seven
in the entire State of schools where
the grades exceed that of the eighth
grade. The overhead cost of teachers
for the High Schools maintained all
over Delaware, should be cut to the
minimum and at the same time, by
locating seven real High Schools in
the entire State, so that all children
who are qualified and can pass an ex-
animation for entrance to the High
School grades, may be transported to
and from these schools, the cost per
pupil will be materially lessened,
while the grade of instructors will be
raised to a standard equal to that of
many of the colleges. Of course, to
get heads of seven High Schools to
carry on seven schools, instead of
5wenty-four, higher salaries would ]
have to be paid to each High School
lead; but, the sum total of expendi-
.ures for salaries under this new
scale, will have smaller total than
he present system. Then the i'm
'ortant result will be gained by this

southern portion of the county, men who are ranching under
private bitches and given more to the producing of wool and
livestock than are the people of the east end.
Due to this friendly rivalry which exists, the ranchers on
the upper Shoshone feel that much of their thunder has been
stolen by those who are responsible for the news stories which
nave been sent out under the caption "Shoshone is winner at
PRODUCTS Show" and Powell Exhibit Wins Sweepstakes at
Casper" The fact of the matter is that it was the western part
OF the county, ranchers who are not under the Shoshone pro
Ject' which won most of the prizes for the county. Park county
won tour first prizes, six seconds and four thirds. Of these
prizes a Powell exhibit took one first prize. Jesse Horner on

NASH MOTORS HAS
BIGGEST NOVEMBER In

Nash sales for November rose Sc

the greatest Nash has ever had, and
at a period of the year when dull

all sections of the country facing
an apparently unprecedented de-

When figures for Chicago and
Cock county, Illinois, were made
available they showed that Nash

istration figures from Wisconsin
showed Nash second only to Ford

I am sorry enough to cry or

make my home at the halfway
house on a diet of half-and-half.
I live on the borders of Now-and
Here, and the Never-Never land,
and I'm almost persuaded and half
sincere, but not quite ready to
stand. My life is a sort of neu-
trail gray; I am guileless of foe or
friend. for I won't go on with you
the livelong way or fight 1t out to
the end. And I never mix with
the rabble throng in the thick o.
the worlds events. but 1 watch in
safety the rushing throng, astride
the roadside fence. I am middling
honest and almost fair. and / aim
at the golden mean, so my stand is
neither here nor there, but just be-
twiX and between. And when at
the last the dead shall rise at the
sound of the trumpet note. I shall
take my place at the Great Assize
as a cross between sheep and goat;
and I'll go to the limbo that's all
own where a neutral man may
dwell, a long ways short of the

FIRE DESTROYS THE
OLD GUNNELS PROPERTY

A hre at the Enus Shaffer home
in the northeastern part of Cody
on Thursday morning about ten
O'Clock totally destroyed the house
and its contents. The fire started
about the kitchen stove in some
manner while Mrs. Shaffer was heat
ing wash water. She had gone to
n of her neighbors for a few min
utes only to return to find her home
in flames. The small children who
were in the house had retreated to
the front yard before their parent
returned.
The department, in to
call of a fire at the Christman
home, went to that place on South
Fourth street, losing several min
utes in this way in getting to the
fire. However. with two streams of
water in action on the fire, it was
soon extinguished, although there
was little to be saved after the de.
struction caused by the fire and the
water.
The Shaffer family lost their en-
tire housekeeping equipment and
clothes, and suffered a considerable
loss. No insurance was carried on
the property. They have resided in
Cody for several months, Mr.. Shat
fer at the present time being en-
pJoyed on the construction.
Sunday Night Alarm
The department was called out
Sunday evening about sever o'clock
when the weeds along the ditch
south of Alger avenu caught on
fire and furnished a thrill or two
for residents in that section of the
city. The wind had been blowing
a gale all day and fortunately sub
sided for a short interval while the
blaze started. The fire was extin-
pushed without the use of water.

From II to 20 Tons Per Acre
By Rotation and Fertilizer

The decision to rotate crops and enrich the soil
with manure or green fertilizer is a profitable one for
any farmer to make.
The cost per unit of yield decreases progressively
as the yield increases, improving ones chances of profit.
Most beet growers realize the value and necessity
of rotation and soil treatment in order to obtain sat
lsfactory yields. But surveys continue to show marked
lack of systematic farming.
To accomplish improvement will require the practice
of good farming knowledge. And this is up to the in
dividual, largely.
Individual growers thinking of making a start on
rotation in 1925 will be interested in the accomplish
ment of a beet grower in the Longmont (Colorado)
district who has practiced rotation and fertilization
for a number of years. His results are given in the
following table:
