CONGRESSIONAL RECEPTION
The annual reception at the

years was held on January IL,
1910. The elite of Washington Of

a striking picture in her gown of
exquisite cream lace with a long
train, and lovely Mrs. Cordell Hull,
wife Of the Secretary of State, was
most attractively gowned in white
brocade cut on classic lines. Gov

Fish Pond Is Fertilized
To Aid in Breeding Bass

GENOA, WIS.-Fertilizing fish
hatchery pond with ordinary ma
nure has produced excellent results.
Capt. G. F. Cutler, United States
fisheries superintendent for the Mis-
sissippi division, claimed world $
record for bass propagation in 10
acre pond beside the Mississippi riv-
er. Fifty pairs of black bass placed
in the pond last spring produced
1,400,000 offspring.
Cutler said 80 loads of manure
scattered over the pond produced an
immense hatch of daphnia, minute
water insects upon which bass feed.
He described fertilizing of hatchery
ponds as comparatively new meth

If the plant is not located near the shop
ping center in West jefferson, where it
essential that the plant be located near or
will be readily accessible like the grocery
stores, drug stores, feed, dry goods, hard
ware and other similar business establish
ments, the freezer lockers will not be used
as extensively as they should be. 1t would
not be economical or practical for families
to have to drive several miles to get to
their freezer locker.
From the storage point-of-view, it is also
in the trading center of the county, near
the railroad and motor terminals.
It seems to us that even the Wayman
site is as far out of West Jefferson, if not
too far, for the location of the plant Land
lying back of the Stockyards or below the
Little Milling Company would be ideal
sites.
We do not see why it would be necessary
to have several acres either. In fact, one
half acre appears to be large enough. Let's
not kill the storage plant by locating it
where its success will be doomed from the
beginning!

evade the requirements of the law to pre-
pare America for defense against any and
all enemies. God Bless America" seemed
to be prayer that came from the hearts
of men and women as they took the first

Extending Farm Courses

Twelve new vocational agricultural de-
partments are being added to high schools
in North Carolina this fall, Roy H. Thomas,
state supervisor of vocational agriculture,
announces.
These new departments have been es-
tablished at schools in various sections of
the state There are Ais schools which now
have agriculture departments, according to
Mr. Thomas Centered in rural high schools
and directed by instructors who are
equipped both by scientific training and
practical experience to teach youth better
ways of farming, farm management, mar
keting, etc., these courses have grown ra-
pidly in popularity and the results of the
work are already beginning to show in
many communities.
Nor is the instruction in scientific farm
ing and related topics restricted to high
school pupils. In divers communities the
instructors provide weekly or semi-week-
ly courses and forums in which adult farm
ers and farm housewives participate. In
this way the new methods of farming
stressed by the instructors are carried i'm
mediately into practice on many farms.
The success of this program, which had
it's inception in the passage of the Smith
Hughes act during the Wilson adn1inistra-
ton, has led to the extension of vocational
training in other fields, the purpose being
to equip more young people for produc-
tive and remunerative trades and occupa-
tons.
The potentialities of the program has as
yet hardly been scratched in North Caro-
lima, but the next few years will indubitab-
ly find practically all of our high schools
providing several types of vocational train
ing.-The Winston-Salem Journal.
