Note Ptactl .9 area is being worked with a special crop. Further increase in cranberry swamp seems unlikely, but who shall say with any show of reason that there are no other discoveries to be made, no other new things to be learned, no other successes possible Difficult production is often the most profitable production; and, conversely, the ease and certainty with which a crop is grown at once establishes a low price for that crop. The difficulties here increase the possible profits. With an increasing market coming to our doors each season eager for vegetables, eggs and milk, the sale of these must. be very profitable. We are in a favored locality for the production of summer and winter eggs; milk and cream can be made here at a fair average cost; the common vegetables CAN BE GROWN. We must take advantage of every means known to modern agriculture to increase and con- serve the soil moisture, We must manure and fertilize heavily; drouth and poor soil make a hopeless combination. Somebody will do it. The question is shall we take the money ourselves, or let our neighbors have it? THE WORK In addition to the class -room in and practices of ruction in the principles agriculture which extends through the larger part of the school year, each her home pupil is required to grow This maybe done . garden at least eleven vegetable species. home; but one of these must ay and the product used at termed the `° „ be chosen as a money crop project to be grown on a larger scale and considered as a business venture. These requirements ob- tain throughout the State. Here we require also a poultry project which is quite warranted by l conclusively ocal conditions as will home forthe year ending y a summary of our pupils' work at ys0eto Avers, 25, 1913: Enrollment, eight boys.
