The most of of the land has been, up to date, farmed only as grain land, it being the Usual practice to farm in for one or two years after breaking up so as to get the land in the best shape to seed it to alfalfa. About 200 tons of hay, however, was raised in 1917 and considerable additional ace rage seeded, which will be in good shape for 1918. After alfalfa has been raised on the property for two or three years, it would be desirable to put in sugar beets for a like period and then rotate with alfalfa for two or three years, oats one or two years and sugar beets two or three years. Farmed in this manner, this property is capable of earning an average of gross returns in excess of $75.00 per acre per year and a net return of over $50.00 per acre per) ear. The Sugar Company has offered to rent lands in this tract at a cash rental of $10.00 per acre per year for a period of 10, 15 or 20 years. It is the policy of the company to divide the land into smaller tracts with a view of interesting settlers. The prices will vary from $85.00 to $100.00 per acre h on terms of cash and the remainder in ten equal annual payments with interest at 6 per cent per annum.

With the oncoming days of winter, the school seems to be accepting the atmosphere and is settling down to more sincere work. Teachers report better response from students; an indicator of more study since the fall work is over. Most of the quarterly exams are over and the students are settling back with full breath for another long run. The first issue of the Clarion appeared last week. Indeed we can say it is a credible report of the school activities. Most of us agree that the new form of school editorial is preferable to the monthly magizlne formally used. We are anxiously looking forward to the end of two weeks for its reappearance.
