For the year 1933 and 1934 the highest per pupil cost ot 1 the grades was in Jefferson county. There were 14 schools in I this county .which had an average en rollment ot eight : pupils. In. this county the pupil-teacher ratio was low with the result that the pupil cost was nign. , , ; -- In , those counties .where there were comparatively few small rur al schools the pupil cost was much lower than in . the less populous counties- of eastern and central Oregon. . '- ; The low per pupil cost In Lin' coin county In 1933 and 1934 was due partly to the shortened ; term of all schools. - " - i ; Howard said It should be borne in mind that a low per pupil cost is not necessarily an indication of efficiency. On the other hand high per pupil cost may be due to Shop With 3 lbs. a HI mm?- Ketp on tht S rainy Oecf Roost CHOICE YOUNG STEER 'oiling Em OR B1USKET Beef STEAKS SIR1X)IK OR Rib -1 1 - factors over which school author ities have no control. It may be due to i sparse -rural population. expensive administration, because of small schools or other causes. The length of the school term also Is an important factor, in deter mining school costs. : - -. The: average number of days taught per 'county in the years 1933-34 varied from ISO to 173. In those counties where the ave rage number of days taught was 170 days or more the per pupil cost was among the highest in the state. -..,. -: a Jefferson, with a per pupil cost of $131.10 in 1933-34r based on combined grade and high schools. was the highest ot any county in the state. Morrow, with a per pu pil cost" of $124.83. was second. Harney was third with a per pu pll cost of $122.22, and Sherman fourth with a cost of $121.71.

Then the project was placed" under su nervlsion of - Mississippi's farm experiment station. - , i - v Success of the plant is credited in large measure to - the leader- shin of Frank WIsner, Laurel banker. His fancy caught by Dr. Thurbers plan. Wisner Journey ed to Washington and laid tne proposal before Relief Adminis trator Harry Hopkins who ap proved a loan.-. ; In the meantime farmers or the community had obtained $10- 000 from the relief administra tion to purchase seed potatoes. These were planted on hundreds of acres that formerly grew noth ing but cotton. - ' t j v - 200 Busnels Per Acre The crop thrived during the summer and - now tne , Douniuui harvest Is ; pouring into the, fac tory which pays 20 cents a pusn el for prime potatoes and culls alikeT" ' . ' The average acre yields about 200 bushels which sells for $40. And that, agricultural -experts agree4 is more than a farmer can make from the . average acre ot cotton. .-.
