The State Industrial Normal and t.lloe. We desire to call attention to 'he advertisement of the State Nor mal and Industrial Collet; which appears in this issue. Kvery year shows a steady growth in this In stitution devohd to the higher ed ucation of the women of North Car olina. Including tha Training School and the Summer Session, the College List year had a total enrollment of 1317 students. Kighty-seven cf the one hundred counties of the State had representatives in the student body. Nine-tenths of all the graduates of this Institution have taught or are now teaching in the schools of North Carolina. The dormitories are furnLshed by the Stato and board Is provided at actual cost. Two hundred appoint ments with free tuition, apportioned among the sevtral rounties accord ing to school population, will be awarded to applicants about the middle of July. Students who wish to attend this institution next year should make iiplication as early as possible, as the capacity of the dor mitories is limited. The Culliiatiin 'f Coin. Successful corn culture depcrds as much upon the "know how" as does success ill any other business. I Of course, a deep, humus-filled soil is the first consult ration, out mucn depends upon the cultivation given the corn after it is up. The farmer who understands and practices the best principles of corn grow ing, who knows the root system, the move ment of soil moisture and the us et soil mulches makes a good corn crop in spite of adverse seasons of rainfall and drought. The one who does not understand these things at tributes his failure to wet weath er, the dry waether, the hot weather, the cold weather, or something else the effects of which he should be able to obviate. In the Farm Dem onstration Work last season some big crops were made w here no rain fell from the time the torn was planted till it was mature. Yet the vield of corn in l his country is more dependent upon rainfall during the growing season than upon any one thing else. This should not b. But let us see that we und istand what proper cultivation does. Kvery good farmer knows that cultivation is to save the moisture, to detHroy germinating weed seeds, to liberate plant food and to warm and uerea.te the soil. If the first two are accom nlinheil the others are too. The suc cessful farmer never allows his soil to become crusted over because he knows that it is losing the moisture. To prevent this crusting also destroy weeds and grass seed that may oe coming up in the soil. So we see that all that is necessary is to culti vate often enough to keep the soil Iiwum. nn tun One of the exoelimellt stations has found that during very- hot dry weather a single corn stalK will take from the soil and evapo rate as much as ten piuts of water in one ilav. It reiiuires about 3m o'.s. ne fil he.' of ! lmiimln of water to produce one nound of dry matter. So we learn Mr. (ireen ai:l Mr. IVe in isc.nslr, that corn is a crop that requires I m- -Madison.

The dutita of this Su pervisor are: (1 To aid the coun ty superintendent in planning and conducting his township and county teachers' meetings; t: To devo e the most of her time during the school term to not more than ten rural schools.

The Supervisor also works to bring about a closer relation between the work lu the school and the life in the community by organizing the boys In the upper graiumer grades Into a Boys' Corn Club, and direct ing their work in the home in cook ing, sewing and home sanitation. In addition to her work with the te.uli ami the children in the school. the Supervisor works with the men and women in the community, stim ulating their interest in and organ izing, and directing tlvMr effors for Improved school condition, better buildings, better equipment, mur.' attractive and more sanitary school yards. , (31 After the doss of these spe cial schools, the Supervisor renders' th county superintendent whatever clerical assistance he ueeds in Ills' office; (4) During the months of July and August she directs the Girls" Tomato Club work. Stimulated and organized through this closer and iore vital supervis ion, four communities In Johnston are now planning to employ an ex pert domestic science teacher to di vide her time with ths four com munities next session. As a further dmonstratlon of the effect tvens of thia closer supervision, all ittn spe cial schools with which Miss Kelly, the Kural Supervisor ot Johuston county, worked last session are now either adding an extra room for an extra teacher or buildis a new building outright.

As to d'P'h f cul'ivaticTi. we it, list nuieinher that corn lietong ti the grass family mid therofore has a fine, flhrous. extensive root svstein. l'.y the time corn U one foot high tiie roots may lie lapping between the rows. The roots grow outward through the soil from two to four times as fast as the stalks grow upward. To destroy these roots In cultivation is to cut off tiie fiedlng powers of the corn. It very often happens that the soil needs a rather deep stirring while the corn Is small and before the roots get out far. If this is the case, It should be given, but care must be given not to cultivate deep ly later. The Indiana Experiment Station haa shown that corn culti vated about two Inches deep yield id 42.36 bushels; that cultivated three Inches deep yielded 42.56 tushels; while that cultlvateil tour Inches deep yleldded only 37.90 h.,ok.,id Annihur ntntlon found that i. nr. 1 1 ' IH t shallow cultivation yielded 81.8 bush els per acre, but deep cultivation gave only 74.1 bushels. a. tn tha number of times to cul tivate corn, this will depend upon conditions. The thing to Keep in mind Is to keep a mulch on the sur face until the corn Is fully tascl ed. In many cases It will pay to cul tivate until some of the silks be ,.i .
