received little education, only such as
the meager schools of that time and
place afforded. :
At 19 he came to America. He
landed in Duquoin, a mining town of
| Illinois, on a Friday.: By the fol-
lowing Monday he was down in a
coal mine at work.
When he had been employed a
little while, one day he heard the
whistle ‘blow to stop work and dis-
covered that in this country the coal
mines were operated only two or
three days a week in summer.
This left him with several days un-
occupied. His companions put in
their leisure time loafing, playng
and drinking.
This boy, Joe Harker was his
name, had, however, been born with
a desire to know.
He wanted to go to school, but
could not afford it. Then he said
to himself:
“Well, all that a teacher does is
to ask you questions and scold you if
you don’t know the answers. I will
ask myself questions, and I'll look up
the answers, and I'll scold myself
even more roundly than a teacher.”
So he bought him a Ray’s Third
Part Arithmetic and a Warren's
Physical Geography, and dug in.
Before many months he knew both
| books from cover to cover.
Then he went to the county super-
intendent of schools and asked him i
he would—not ask but answer |
questions once a week.
intendent consented, liked the boy
and helped him along.
When Jo was 23 the superintend-
ent said to him one day: “I've a
vacancy in the negro school here, Jo,
and I believe you could fill it. Will
you try? If so, I will give you a
teacher’s certificate.”
The boy tried.
There he found himself. When he
stood up to teach those colored boys
and girls he knew that teaching was

He became known as one of the
best teachers in Illinois.
Twenty- seven years ago he was
made president of the Illinois Wo-
man’s college at Jacksonville. He is
there now.
He is recognized as one of the,
foremost educators of America.
I write this in the hope that many
a boy who thinks he does not ‘have
a chance’ may be encouraged by the
example of Jo Harker, who discover-
ed that he could “teach himself,” and
whom we would not dare to call Jo

SUMMER SESSION
1920 ANNOUNCED
‘The college announces its
Summer Session beginning June 7,
and ending August 28. The work
will be given in five divisions as fol- .
lows: The Summer Normal (June
21 to August 14); The Rural Life
School (June 7 to July 17); The Col-
lege (June 7 to August 28);
School of Cotton Classing (June 7
to July 17).
J. O. Morgan, Director of Sum-
mer Session announces a little dif-
ference in the organization of the
session as compared with former
years and calls attention to these dif-
ferences as follows:
(1) The Summer Normal division
has been made of eight weeks dura-
tion rather than six weeks duration,
as has been the case in former years.
This change is a result of recent ac-
tion of the State Department of Ed-
ucation—requiring that all Summer
Normals continue for not less than
eight weeks exclusive of eraminations
The Summer Normal Examinations,
which are given by the State De-
partment of Education, will be held
at the College on August 16, 17, 18,
and 19. These examinations will be
conducted immediately following the
close of our Summer Normal.
(2) The College Division of the
which college
credit courses are given, will be of

MIXED FEED FOR DAIRY
CATTLE
If 1 were mixing feed for dairy
cattle for quality, regardless of
price, I would use corn, oats, wheat
bran and cotton seed meal, with
possibly some barley. If a good qual-
ity of velvet bean meal or peanut
meal were obtainable, it could re-
place some of the cotton seed meal
at perhaps a cheaper cost. These pro-
ducts would need to be finely ground
and mixed in any proportion nec-
essary to get the desired proportion
with reference to protein, ete. This
feed could be cheapened some by ad-
ding ground alfalfa and a little mo-
lasses, though these feeds would tend
to reduce the quality.—C. M. Evans.

Brains have always been profitable
on the farm, but the time is here
when brains are absolutely necessary
on the farm. The farmer must use
from his shoulders up as well as his
muscles, and unless he uses his brains
he had better leave the farm and
study medicine or law or |go into
some business that does not require
as much brains as farming.
