May and June are redlettr months for thousands of farm boys and
girls because they have received diplomas emitting them to enter high
school These have usually been presented by county IT town superin-
fendents, in h presence of parents and school mates, al appropriate
exercises held in honor o the occasion. The slogan has probably been:
-On to High School"
Whether Of these boys and girls do go On to high school
next September depends very largely upon the attitude of their parents
toward education and their ability to solve difficulties. If there is no
high school within walking distance oil home and n o train IT bus service

between home and school. If there is a high school within reasonable
driving distance the solution is easy-the family car furnish it's own

Leave the Profitable Plant
in Thinning Beets

Insist that your contract labor leave the largest
dragged away from these plants.
The relative producing power of large and small
seedlings was the subject of extensive study on our
Longmont Experimental Farm. The results follow:
Size of Seedlings Tons per Acre Sugar per Acre
Large 3O.8 4,238 lbs.
Small 161 1850 lbs.
These yields are based on a 14inch stand, 2O-inch
row. The large seedlings nearly doubled the yield of
the small ones.
If the reduction in small seedlings could reach
a point where the field could be made up of sixty per
cent large and forty per cent small seedlings the value
OF the crop, compared with a $3.50 stand, would be in
creased by $3.50 on a 25-acre field, with beets at So a
ton.
We have informed contract beet workers about the
Importance of leaving the large plants at thinning
time. But the grower can pursue this educational
work himself with good effect.
In blocking there is a tendency to drag the soil
away from beets unnecessarily, exposing the tender
stems of the young beets. This may result in loss of
tonnage by damage to the stand in hot, dry weather.
The thinner can do much to reduce this by placing
loose soil about each beet as it is left. This should be.
insisted upon.
In this seasons blocking and thinning supervise
the work and strive to get a wellspaced stand of
healthy seedlings which will give you the highest
yield.
