SUGGESTIONS FOR LINKING
UP SCHOOLS AND FARMS
In using electricity, we can't get
results until proper connections are
made. Just so with the school and
the farm; until the proper connec
tion is made between the two, we
cannot develop and make use of the
power. A close connection, however,
makes the rural school a power house
for, which wires carrying community
building energy reach to every home
in the district. Parents as well as
pupils must be interested. Generally,
though, the logical method is to reach
the fathers and mothers through the
children. For instance, a school dis
trict survey made by the pupils will
inform the parents of at least one
| thing that is being done over there
at the school house. Surveys lead to
many questions as to crops, acreage,
yields and value, upon which help is
sure to be asked at home. Discussion
of farm practices follows. Why was
the yield of a given acre better on
one farm than on another? In some
cases the conclusion will be that it
was due to the difference in soil. If
corn be the crop under consideration,
instruction on the selection of seed
corn in the fall and on the. testing of
seed com in the early spring will be
in order
! A special seed corn day so" all the
district, with school trained pupils
leading in selecting seed corn on the
home farm, will naturally follow, just
as will the school district corn show
later on. Tn the meantime hoys and
girls will have brought seed ears from
their homes and tested them in germ
inating boxes made at school.

IF SKIN BREAKS I
OUT 10 ITCHES
APPLYJULPHUR
Just the moment you apply Mentho-
Sulphur to an itching, burning or
broken out skin, the itching stops and
healing begins, says a noted skm spe
cialist. This sulphur preparation,
made into a pleasant cold cream, gives
such a quick relief, even to fiery
eczema, that nothing has ever been
found to take its place. .
Because of its germ destroying
properties, it quickly subdues the itch
ing, cools the irritation and heal* the
eczema right up, leaving a clear,
smooth skm in place of ugly erup
tions, ra'h, pimples or roughness.
You do not have to wait for im
provement It quickly shows. You
aan get a little jar of Mentho-Sulphur
at any drug store.
