A letter sent to all Indiana high school principals by Dean H. L. Smith, of the school of education, states that the enrollment in elementary teacher courses will be limited to 180 beginning students. Such limitation has been in effect for the past two years with the result that scores of students applying for this work have been unable to gain admittance to classes. Overcrowding and lack of facilities to m*t?t demands are responsible for the situation. Dean Smith's letter states that students applying for elementary teacher training will be accepted in the order in which their applications are approved. He states further that letters of applications should be accompanied by certified high school credentials and by a check for the first semester’s fees, amounting to $35. All students desiring to take the elementary teacher training work should register before August 1. Dean Smith says. _______—_o_ ———— ■ .

This industry is at the point where it will either expand to larger proportions than any single industry in the county, including Indianapolis, or will remain more or fess sta-_ tionary on account of insect, plant d&sea»‘ and soil probkins about which little or nothing is known. Indianapolis is wit in easy overnight express distance from a number of large cities that could absorb a very large surplus of greenhouse and other vegptabtes. A committee of 17 men accompanied county agent C Henry to Purdue University to lay the growers’ problems before the departments whose services would be needed. Director G. I, Christie and a group of specialists in plant pathology, entomology and soil chemistry met the committee and discussed the problems involved and made a preliminary survey of conditions. These men will visit Marion county on May 16 to studv conditions at close range Recommendations have been made and it is hoped that finances can be arranged for the employment of the cooperative investigator suggested to do local research work. - ~ 0- — TWO MORE ACVEPTED Word from headquarters of the Fifth Corps Area states that the latest Kosciusko county boys to be accepted for the Citizen’s Military Training Cswno for officers are from Syracuse.

THAT (HL SURPLUS - - J ... . The appeal of the Standard Oil Company that unless the federal governni mt takes a hand in stemming the piesent flood of over-production the industry will soon find itself in financial chaos with a shock to most people that this industry of millionaires and billionaires is fearing financial difficulties. Ulis appeal expresses fear of the depletion of oil resources and indicates that the only way to combat th-s c'anger is to raise the price. Heretofore that pbn has srmnh- <r*rved to stimulate production and this appeal is the result. The government owns several large oil producing fields, if it can be induced to restrict its production in these fields it may help the upward trend of prices. And. of cours-' the government will accommodate these poor rich coreems. The government is not in business and yet it seems to be in business with both feet when individual enterprise fails.

SELLING LIVE POULTRY “Choose your time of marketing poultry carefully and realize more profit,” says E. R. Menefee, Poultry Marketing Specialist of the Purdue University Agricultural Experiment Station. “Last week I visited a farmer in Boone County who had been checking up on profits from the tale of live poultry during the last three years, and he has found that ‘hie. had more money in his pocket by marketing hens in Jun * than he would have had by jv.ait rHf un.i. October. He now expects to make summer marketing his policy.” Mr. Menefee went on to explain that the June prices for hens are from 50 to 75 per cent higher than October prices There ; s less demand for hens in the fall because young chickens are plentiful and, usually, preferable. Ibe same principle holds true in the sale of young poultry. Spri: g chickens sold as broilers in June brirag- almost twice as much per pound as they bring when as cockerels in the fail. Consequently a bird sold in June brings almost as much as one sold in October and early sales eliminate the cost of feeding through the summer. During September and October the poultry market is swamped with poultry of all kinds. Supply is far above demand. This condition necessitates cold storage handling which decreases the value of the product and diminishes the farmer’s profit. REAL FISH STORY A peculiar fish story is being told in piscatorial circles It runs to the effect that while walking along the banks of Wawasee, Mrs. John Kunkaknap saw a large pike hurl itself out of the water onto dry land. She secured it and found a good sized bass in its mouth. Th* pike weighed 14 pounds.— Ligonier Banner. A classified ad will sell it.

H Blair of the Statehouse Reference Library. Figures for Monroe and Wabash counties were missing from the 1926 total. In the ninety counties reported there were 38,657 marriage licenses during 1926, while in al! counties (92) there were 36.828, in 1925. Divorces last year were 7,448. compared with 7,431 rn 1925. j Os the 1926 figures, 5,510 di- , vc.rces were obtained by wesmn ' and 1.938 by men. This is an increase of divorces granted to women of 69 and a decrease to men of 52 over the 1926 figures. A’though Marion county Leeds in the divorce list for 1926, with a total of 1.371, it fell far behind Lake county in the number of marriages. Marion county marriages were 3,804 while the Lake county total was 6,422. * county divorces were only 486. Ulis great difference is attributable in part to the presence of the vast metropoliI tan area of the Chicago district and the elopements which are staged with ceremony in Lake county. Ohio county reported but two divorces, one to a husband and one to a wife. Its marriage total was but 31. —: O— — ■ “Tell It to the Marines.” at Crystal. Ligonier, next Tuesday.
