boys. The rate of reading retarda-
this country.
But Dr. Preston found the re-
verse to be true in WieSbaden-
more girls than boys had reading
retardation problems. He credits
this to those not easily identified
elements in German culture which
result in the easy ascriptlon OF
reading and learning to the nor
NAL activity of the male.
Most teachers in Germany are
men, even at the elementary school
level. I'm contrast" he continued,
there is reason to believe that in
the United States reading is often
associated with femininity."
Differences in reading p d
which consistently a d slgnlfl-
cantly" favored the American sub
jects, DR.. Preston said, may be
due in part to possibly lngraned
habits of worldly word reading on
the part of German pupils caused
by an apparent greater emphasis
in German schools than in Ameri-
can schools upon word analysis
and oral reading.
"This emphasis, which undoubt-
edly contributes to the u r m n
child's initial advantage over the
American child in word recogni-
ton, may be detrimental to his
comprehension as we'll as to his
speed"
AS an example. he cited the
word "gunners. In German, its
equivalent is "Bedienungsmann-
schaften."

This study indicates little diff
terence exists between American
and German reading skills," he
said. yet critics of American read
ing instruction too frequently in
dulge in hyperbole.
mere does seem to be better
atmosphere for intellectual work
in high schools over there, though.
German high school teachers. for
example, frequently are heavily in
volved in research and publish pa
pers, but this is rare in this coun-
try.
Many critics of American eIe-

Q-How long should soybeans
be held in storage on the farm?
How can l decide when to sell?
A-Supplies are up and cannot
be expected to be matched by de-
mand. Prices should gradually re-
turn to the 10 loan level. and when
they do it likely will be a good
time to sell. A price rise of the
magnitude experienced last stor-
age season cannot be counted on
during the current storage period
Consider storage facilities and
the market when making your
decision.
Q-Where can get some long

A-The main sources of long

Farm Price
Outlook

This is the way prospects for
Virginia farm prices looked to
the Virginia Department of Agri-
culture on Friday. The Depart
ment offers it to farmers with
the warning that no one can
predict prices and be right all
the time
EGGS
Egg prices will probably
fluctuate around current levels
through February.
The big question mark is just
when the spring slide will
start. The higher supply Of eggs
nationally might hurry it up
while a spell Of bad weather
could delay it.
In any case, buyers are now
buying to cover immediate needs
only.
Egg production in February
will probably be up around 2-3
per cent over the same month
last year.
Most of this increase is due to
stepped-up rate of lay as the
number of layers Isl close to the
1861 level. A larger proportion
Of pullets in flocks, better breed
ing, and more commercial egg
flocks are pushing up the rate Of
lay.
The 2-3 per cent production in
crease would be in line with
population increases if folks
were eating as many eggs as
they used to.
Civilian egg consumption has
been going down, however. It
has slipped from 81 per person
in 1855 to 1923 per person in 1861.
And lower egg prices don't seem
to increase consumption much.
Last week in Virginia, Grade
A large eggs were Sc to 80
cents, down S cents from a one
