THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM. MONDAY, MAY 7, 1917

PICKELL DRAWS CREDIT RULES FOR STUDENTS "High schools must act as well as talk, and If we are to act wisely and well we must Btart now," said G.JChristie, state food director, speaking to a conference of educators in Indianapolis Saturday. This meeting was called by the governor to appeal to the teachers to teach economy In everything. Friday afternoon a meeting of High school officials was held. Principle Frank G. Pickell, presided. Recommendations governing the release of High school pupils for enlistment in the United States service and for work on farms, were drawn up, and presented at the meeting Saturday morning. These recommendations are the same as those drawn by Mr. Pickell for the local school board. The recommendations are as follows: A Enlistments. Will Grant Passing Grade. ' 1 Credits granted for the current semester in those studies in which they are passing. A grade of C shall be granted for the semester. 2 The adoption of this shall not be retroactive for seniors. 3 Only those of full Junior and Senior standing shall be recognized in this rule. B Farm Work. 1 Credits granted to pupils for the current semester in those studies In which they are passing. They shall be granted C grades under the following conditions. A They shall have a certificate of employment before being released. B They shall bring to school, a certificate sworn to by a notary public, stating the amount of time spent in product employment. C The time served shall cover the remainder of school term. D Farm work shall mean the production of crops and not just any kind of work, and certificate shall cover this point. E Urgent need shall govern the school officials in releasing pupils. Parents Given Written Petition. F The parents shall give their written petition for such action. G Local boards should provide means by which pupils at work could be supervised, and their work reported on, to the local boafd officers, who in turn should send these reports to the state board for approval. These recommendations were well received Saturday morning, so that local boards can begin action at once. A committee was appointed to outline the work of the teachers In the state. Principal Pickell is a member of this committee: Mr. Pickell Is working on several pfans. At present only one definite

plan is nude. He proposes to install j

in the Kitrnen or tne J-ugn scnooi ai pressure cooker for canning. The I

llish school will become this summer n "community canning place." An experienced teacher will be enrased to teach people how to can corn. Pras. beans, and fruits. People may fhn bring their cans, and material and cnn anything they wish. The only expense will be a very small fee to cover the cost of running the pressure cooker.

The garden plan is to serve as a guide by which to plant rather than to select the vegetables. The gardener should select the kinds of vegetables that suit his taste and follow the principles of the plan. All the rows in this plan are one foot apart. A tomato row requires more space than one foot on either side. Two rows of early beets are put between the tomato rows, and before the tomato plants are very large, the beets will have been used, leaving three feet between the tomato rows. The early lettuce and radishes are planted before the tomato plants are ' set in order to give the beets opportunity to be used before the tomato plants are large. Such vegetables as sweet corn, squash, cucumbers, etc., are not included in the back-yard garden plan because space can be more advantageously used for other crops.

CUTWORMS

Should you go out into the garden some morning and find that the best cabbage and tomato plantB are lying on the ground, rest assured that the cutworms are at work. To prevent the cutworms from cutting off the plants, wrap a piece of stiff paper about the stem of each plant. Where there are a great number of plants, a poisoned bait may be used rather effectively. In this case, the better plan is to scatter the bait a few days before the plants have been set out. If the plants have already been set, the worms can be killed by scattering the bait among the plants. The poisoned bait is prepared by mixing Paris green and sugar or mo

lasses with a stiff bran mush; or a poisoned bait may be made by dipping freshly cut clover into a strong solution of Paris green and water.

Clean-up Movement Gives Way For Year to Garden Movement

The annual clean-up day has been abandoned for 1917. The money expended for this work will be devoted to the kitchen garden movement. Mrs. Benjamin Rush announced today that the Aftermath society, which she represented, and Mayor Will Robbins has decided to postpone cleanup week. They concluded that the educational work accompanying former campaigns had educated children and parents to the necessity of cleaning back yards in spring. A considerable amount of money was expended formerly, Mrs. Rush explained, by the Aftermath society. This year the money will be used in furthering the home garden idea.
