The investigation showed that after Monday there would be only 74 students of the 260 enrolled present- - Of the 74 students 29 expressed a preference to go to work if the school was closed, leaving only 45 students or 17 per cent who would be in attendance.

Music supervisor and teachers visit schools in other districts, this being one of the best ways of bringing improvement to the schools.

After trading the car. for a few ponies and saddles, they left Eureka without as much as even thanking Mr. Kaighn for his generous hospi tality. Mr. Kaighn immediately got busy on the phone, and communicated with Deputy Sheriff P. P. Christi-sofor this official to look out for them. Sheriff Chrlstison, accordingly was on the job at once and landed the pair the early part of the week about three miles north of this city. They were taken back to Eureka and brought before the justice of the peace and fined $30 each and 30 days in the county jail.

"In 1922 the farmers in the state grew 294,000 acres of wheat, 150,000 acres was on land without water, but 144,000 acres was on good irrigated land. The dry land offers little chance for rotations and change in cropping, therefore, the raising of wheat on the dry land must continue.
