I like this book because it is
about Sambo and the Twins. It is
a very good book. One day Sam
bo's mother called him. He asked
her what she wanted. He ran in
He saw two darling little black ba
bies. They were his littb broth

When they grew older he fed them
and bathed them.

Grade 4
The boy:, an.! girl.-! in the Thiid
and Fourth grades have been
studying about birds and animals.
We have studied about the hum
ming bird. A good way to feed
the humming bird is to take a
small bottle, then a piece of bright
paper and put it around the bot
tle. Put sugar and water in the
bottle. Then put the bottle in a
bunch. When the humming bird
sees it, he will think it is a flower.
So he goes down to get the sweet
nectar which he thinks is a flower,
when he begins to drink the sweet,
ened water he likes it very much.
Every day he will come to the flow
er to get nectar. We have stud
ied about other birds, but I think
the humming bird is most interest
ing. You can make a cafeteria
for other other birds too.
. Animals get their food in other
ways.

COMBINED! the first requirement
in growing profitable
potatoes is plenty of potash the most important

per acre yield uses 125 lbs. of nitrogen, 35 lbs;
of phosphoric acid, and 170 lbs. of potash
Experiment stations and successful growers
have found 1,500 to 2,250 lbs. of a 5.7-7 anal

Ask your county agent or experiment station
how much available potash your soil contains
and how much to add to carry your crop through
to more profit. Then make sure that your dealer
sells you a fertilizer containing enough potash
to supply what you need. You will
be surprised how little extra it costs.

My Teeth
There are thirty-two soldiers which
are gl owing in a row,
Up and down, up and down, up and
down they go.
They chew and grind the food J
eat,
But they stay still when I'm asleep.
My tooth brush and paste are my
best friends,
They keep my teeth shining bright,
They brush them morning, noon
and night,
To keep them looking clean and
bright.

Our teachers will depart,
We hate to see them leave us
They're such a faithful lot.
How we like the Newport High
With its banner toward the sky.
How we study night after night,
To try to improve with all our
might.
The ringing of the bell we know
ilings out its song, "It's time to
go."
It's time we start on our way to
school
When we get there we obey each
rule.
