G, Kersbergen Requests Students to Call Week Before School Opens. The teaching staff for the Her miston high and grade school bas been completed and school will open Monday, September 7, according to W. G. Kersbergen, the new super intendent.

In the grade school Miss Ineda Moore of Freeman, Wn., will teach the first grade. She is a graduate of Cheney Normal. Miss Mary Petri will again teach the second grade.

Superintendent Kersbergen has asked that all students who plan to enroll In the high school come to his office some time the week before school opens. He also Invites the parents to accompany the students if they desire to do so. Mr. Kersbergen will be in his office from nine until eleven o’clock in the morning until four o’clock in the afternoon. The following is a continuation of the article written by Mr. Kersber- gen, part of which appeared last week in the Herald. In the field of languages the Her- miston high school presents, four years of English, two of Latin, two of Spanish and one of public speak ing and debate. This combination permits a major in English and mi nors in Latin and Spanish. If pub lic speaking and debate is taken, this unit in conjunction with four units of English satisfies the require ment for one major and one minor. Students are urged to take foreign languages in the first three years of the course. Of course if a student elects to study both Latin and Span ish the course can be continued in to the fourth year. Most colleges do not require foreign language for admission but nearly all of them re quire it for graduation or granting a degree. The high school student who presents two or more years of foreign language for college admis sion will be excused from part or all of the college foreign language requirement. The natural science offering in cludes elementary science, biology and chemistry. Students wishing a minor should take the elementary science and biology. If a major is desired then chemistry will be ad ded. The first two courses should be taken in the first and second years and if a third course is taken the third or fourth year are equal ly satisfactory from the school's standpoint, but the individual stu dent should plan at least the two years ahead so that no conflict aris es between this course and another that he wishes to take. An addi tional minor may be had by taking general mathematics and algebra. The social science offering pro vides for a major, a minor or two minors. The specific courses offered are world history, United States his tory. civics and a year's course in sociology and economics. The course in United States history is set for the third year and the civics course in the fourth year, so any student wishing three or four units in the field should take the world history and sociology and economics course in the first two years. In the vocational field the high school is of course restricted by the size of the school and community but a number of vocational courses are offered. A general course in vo cational Information is given and should be taken by all freshmen, al though it will not be made an abso lute requirement. This year with better facilities and more room a course in home economics will be given. The course Is usually two In length but for this year only the first half will be given and nest year a second unit will be ad- (Concluded on page four) COUNTY, OREGON, MISSOURIANS ASK TO LOCATE IN H.

They have been in the turkey business four years and have marketed a high percentage of prime birds each year. Because of the sandy soil and direct sunshine they recommend this section of Umatilla county as ideal for turkey produc tion. The first year the Darlings hatch ed 235 poults, setting the eggs under four hens. The next year they kept 35 hens for breeding stock and pur chased two incubators. The second year they kept 135 hens and the last two years they have kept 235 hens, selling a total of 3650 eggs to producers. Custom hatching for the Darlings was done this year by Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Rankin who have three James- way incubators. This spring the Darlings sold 450 poults, leaving a flock of 1000 turkeys. Turkey poults are housed in a 24x60 foot colony brooder house, heated by a hot water system. The capacity is 1500 poults, placed 250 in each of the seven compartments. The poults range on the sun porch whenever the weather permits. This porch is covered by wire netting one foot from the ground which is re movable and easily cleaned. Breeding toms were purchased from John Woods at Hood River for this year’s breeding, and last year from the H. G. Rankin flock. Disease has not been prevalent tn the Darling flock and the birds range on new ground each year, not being placed on an old range sooner than the third year. A fair margin has been realized between the teed costs and market price each year by the Darlings and they have cleared an average of 32.75 per bird. This does not include labor costs. The Darlings milk eight head of Jersey cows and teed the separated milk to two head of hogs. No wet milk is given to the turkeys because it breeds flies and disease, and there is a milk content in the mash feed. Modern Home. A modern six room home with a full length screened in porch on the east side is found on the Darling farm. The house is lighted by a Delco plant installed in the base- ment which also operates an auto matic water system for the house and on the turkey range. A flamo and wood stove and Electrolux re frigerator also add greatly to the conveniences of the home. The Delco plant also furnishes light in the brooder houses. FIRST TURKEY TOUR HELD AT SUNNYSIDE.
