new BOARD
FIRES B0CER
ON MONDAY

For the first time in many
years, the Tabor City representa-.
tive on the Columbus Count,
Board of Education has been
named chairman.
The action transpired Monday
afternoon of this week when the
new Board of Education in exc
cutive session for the first time
elected James w. (Buck) Peay
chairman. Peay has been a men,
Der Of the board for the past two
years but Major R. ]. Lamb, of
Whiteville, recently displaced as
a member of the board, has serv-
ed as chairman.
In the new boards first meet.
ing, it took immediate action on
the office of Superintendent o.
Columbus County Education
currently held by w. J. Boyer,
Jr.
The board voted four to two
with the chairman not having to
cast a vote to declare the Office
of superintendent vacant as
July 1. This has the effect of fir
ing Superintendent Boyer al
though he could make applica'
ton for the job again, and should
no more desirable applicants
name be entered, might conceiv.
able remain the superintendent
after July 1.
All county school committee
men were approved as submitted
lby the various members of the
board.
Comprising the Board of Edu'
cation, by virtue of a bill push.
ed through the General Assem-:
bly, last week, by Senator Junlus
TX. Powell and Representative
Homer G. Avant, are four incum.
bents-James w. Peay of Tabor
City, Frank Wooten> of Chad
bourn, Clifton Stephens of Clar'
endon, and M. K. Long of Ma.
kina-and three new members
A. H. Sessions of Hallsboro, Carl
Meares of Fair Bluff and K. M.
Holmes of Bolton.
Prior to taking their oaths OF
office, members of the new board
had little to say regarding posi-
BILE changes in the county ad.
ministration of schools. Observ'
ers. however, believed the divl'
sion to be close with the POSSIBLE.
ity that one vote might deter
mine the outcome.
Board members whose terms
of office expired Monday at noon
were Chairman r. ]. Lamb or
Whiteville, B. H. Small of Fair
Bluff, and B. L. Townsend OF
Lake WaccamaW.
Interest in the action OF the
Board of Education was wide
spread. Whether there would be
change in the school admins
, tration was purely speculative
and whether a new appointment
would be made Immediately was
equally uncertain.

CERESANo on Seed Grain
Protects Early Paintings

Stem rust usually is more severe on
late maturing grain. That's why it
pays to plant early. When your
seed is treated with "Ceresan'' seed
disinfectant, you can plant early
and reduce the risk of seed rot,
damping-off and seeding blights on
your oats, wheat, barley, rye and
fax.

MARCH RESULTS of the upper

atoms and the other is that the pro-
ducers will have to handle their
crops in such way that top quality
seed will be produced at all times.
In line with these two factors, the
Montana Seed Growers Assn. is
stressing the production of founda-
ton and registered generations, and
in the interests of better quality seed,
more attention will be paid to the
conditions found in the field at in
spection time.
All growers of Ranger alfalfa seed
will be required to cultivate their
acreage, not only to control weeds,
but to destroy any volunteer plants
of another generation which may
show up as a result of seed loss dur
ing harvest.
AS it will require more labor in
taking care of these cultural prac-
tees, it behooves every grower to
save every pound of seed that he
produces. This should be easy, as
only SO percent of the alfalfa seed
which is raised is marketed.
Keeping Qualify Hard Wheat
Many times in this column we
have stressed the fact that if Mon
tana is to compete in wheat produc-
ton, it must, of necessity, grow the
best quality possible. The truth of
this statement is becoming more APP
parent all the time, with rather sharp
competition coming from the major
winter wheat producing states in the
nation.
The planting of varieties that are
not of the quality of our recommend
ed varieties has always hampered
certain marketing areas in maintain
ing this quality. Along with nom
recommended varieties, we often
find the introduction of white and
durum wheats into the hard red
wheat areas.
A lot of these things have hap
pened in the 1851 planting SEIZED
ule and should be watched rather
carefully by those producers wht
realize what the introduction O.
some of these wheats can do in the
way of lowering grades. Many times
these introductions are made limo
Gently and are the result of no

may be.
Montana can maintain her qualit.
production, but it will take SOM
thinking and planning TO do so.
