I I urge the co-operation of i Superintendents and Teachers with the State Insurance Depart ment in its commendable efforts .to prevent loss of property and life in North Carolina from tire. Let every teacher on Friday pre ceding "Fire Prevention Day" read to the school children the proclamation of the Covernor and the letter and practical suggest ions of the Insurance Commis ' sioner for the pre\ Mition of fires. \ Post the suggestions in the school room and observe them, not only on "Fire Prevention Day," but throughout the school term. I have no doubt that the loss of many shoolhouses in North Caro-' lina by tire can be prevented by the observance of these simple 1 precautions, and that the de- i struction of much other property j by fire not and hereafter can! I " be prevented by instructing! the school children to observe these precautions for the preven tion of unnecessary tires. Very respectfully, •J. V. JOYNER. State Superintendent of Public Instruction. I ' ! 75 Bushels Per Acre Yield Corn Club Boys.! Raleigh, Sept. 21.—Seventy-1 five bushels an acre is what the North Carolina Corn Club boys are putting as their this year's average. Last week the officer in charge at the experiment station at West Raleigh asked each of the boys to report an . estimate of the vear's yield, and , up t.i the latter fart of the week about 1.000 had reported. It seems that this will be a good, year for the com crop altho it was rather unfavorable for a good stand to be attained in j some parts >f the c tate this s tiring. The membership >i the c.»rn .•!uhs in North Carolina is about o.'»". At bushels an acre the total yield would be 22.", M"0 bushels, which will be a good addition to the state's wealth. But many of the boys are plant ing larger areas than une acre, and it is thought that this will raise the state yield of the boy? ah 'it 1 o,oi i) bushels. THE DANBURY REPORTER MM DESTROYED !
