How the average high school stu
dent will be occupied one year from i
this Jure has been determined by a I
recent surrey of 1,000 of last June's i
graduates. Teachers colleges, busi- ?
ness colleges and vocational schools i
?rill absorb 140 graduates from tbe ?
school surveyed, all in towns of ap ?
proximately 3.000. I
Students numbering 171 will attend
?oileje or university the first year,
with a large percentage falling to
eturn the second year. Lack of In

uates not planning to work.
Clerical Jobs in grocery stores, tili
ng stations, shoe stores, etc.. will
le filled by 236 graduates. This total
ncludes delivery boys and "handy

n a clerical capacity. Thirty-one
talesmen also received the sheep

"WHEN IS A FARM
IDLE"
The basis (or determination of i
iin idle farn^ ns set forth In Ques
tion No. 9_.ot Interpretative Mem- j
orandum EC'R-ADM-354 is as fol- |
lows: "Any farm with respect to
which a wheat, tobacco, or cotton
allotment is established shall be i
deemed to be idle in 1939 if the 1
county committee determines that i
such farm is idle within the usual |
meaningof the term in the com
munity in which the farm is locat- I
ed. Provided that a farm shall be
considered as idle unless normal !
cropping operations are carried |
out oh the farm in 1939. Normal
cropping operation will not be I
deemed to have been carried out
on the farm unless an acreage of
land equal to not less than one
half the acreage in the total soil- j
depleting allotment for the farm is
devoted to one or more of the I
following uses:
1. Seeded to a crop for harvest
in 1939.
2. A crop (other than wild hay)
is harvested in 1939.
3. Devoted in 1939 to seed
legumes or grasses (other than
those seeded in the fall of 1939).
4. Seeded to small grains to be
pastured in 1939 (other than
small grains seeded iu the fall of
1939).
Except where the State Com
mittee finds that such cropping
operation was prevented by causes
beyond the control of the opera
tor."
This information is issued to
the farmers of the County for the

ments when the Agricultural Con
servation Payment is expected
