ify. two veterans for
Although
training under the GI Bill ordinarily is limited to one veteran on
farm management
a single farm, Veterans Administration has announcedthree
conditions under which two vet.erans may take this training on
the same farm.
This program is part of the institutional on-faym_ training program which combines classroom
instruction with practical farming. To qualify for the farm management instruction, a veteran
must own his own farm or have
economic control of a farm.
Those veterans who do _ not
own their own farm may take institutional on-farm training as
employee-trainees of a successful
farmer approved by the farm
training institution.
The conditions which will qualé farm management on the same
farm_are: by ae
‘(1) The approved training institution and VA must find that
conditions on the farm will assure successful training and subsequent self-employment on. the
same farm for both ‘veterans.
(2) The “training~-of~both— veterans must meet all requirements
specified in Public Law 377 which
established. the institutional onfarm training programs. 3
(3) The two veterans ._must
furnish documentary evidence
that they have formed a bona fide
partnership, with equal authority
in the management ane operation
of the farm.
Under no circumstances will
VA permit a veteran to enter
training as. an employeetrainee
training
on the farm of another veteran
enrolled for farm management
training.
The new ruling also cautions
farm training institutions to exercise extreme care to determine
that a borfa fide training situation exists for each veteran when
more than one veteran is enrolled
as an employee-trainee on the
same farm.
Almost 87 percent of the 203,
000: World War II veterans enrolled for institutional on-farm
training under the GI Bill are
training on farms under their
control. The remainder are training as employee-trainee on farms
approved by the training institution.
QUESTION: Will Veterans
Administration pay for. tools and
equipment while I am taking onthe-job training?
ANSWER: VA will pay for
those :tools and equipment that
are needed by all trainees for the
satisfactory pursuit of the same
training course.
QUESTION:

ANSWER:
Will VA pay
a. veteran to attend

Yes, Veterans Adminiistration will pay for such
schooling if his course of study
is related to the vocation for
which he-is in training, or if the
school course is prescribed and
recommended as a part of his
job-training.

WASHINGTON
— NOTES
CAMP BEALE GRAB.
The newest development in the
Air Corps’ effort to hold onto
85,000 acres at Camp Beale is a
letter from Eugene M. Zuckert,
Assistant Secretary for Air, to
in which he says that they
only need 400 acres for the actual bomb target and about 3,600
for a security area around the
bomb target. He says they are
willing to lease the rest to livestock operators, but fails to explain why they should under the
circumstances continue to hold
title to any part of the remaining
81,000 acres. .In other words, in
order to have 400 acres of bombing target plus approximately
3,000 of security area they are
trying to hang onto 85,000 acres.
In the meantime, the House subcommittee dealing with surplus
property has gotten into the matter and will undoubtedly ask the
Air Corps some very pertinent
questions along that line.
MINERS. WIN FIRST ROUND
Under a bill which I recently
introduced, thousands of acres
would be opened to mining which
are now bottled up in powersite
withdrawals. I expected a deluge
of protests from the federal agencies. The first report came in the
other day from the Federal -Power Commission and to my surprise
is favorable—except that an
amendment which I regard of
minor importance is requested.
The Forest Service and Interior
Department are yet to be heard
from. But, it may be that we have
found the formula to get these
vast areas, so potentially valuable
to mining, reopened. Much credit
is due to Mr. Wendell Robie of
Auburn and his mining committee, which has worked on the
subject and which helped to formERP AIDS FRUIT MEN
The fruit producers of California should be happy. The Marshall Plan as enacted by both
houses contains language which
requires the use of agricultural
surplusses in feeding Furope.
This is going to be a life saver
to many California specialty crops
which, prior to the war, depended
as much as 50 per cent on export
markets no longer existent. During the war of course they got
by all right—the Government
took all they could produce. But,
now it is different and with their
orchards and vineyards built up
for a peacetime trade based on
export markets they are facing
serious surplusses. The amendment which we secured to the
bill provides that where practical
our surplusses be used first in
providing food for starving Europeans. That not only makes good
sense, but shows a proper regard
for keeping our own economy in
balance. People might wonder
why such a logical provision
should have to be written in thé
law, but we had a terrific time
convincing the State and War
Departments. They wanted to use
the dollars to buy wheat, which
they contended buys the highest
number of calories per dollar.

THE STORY. OF SWEETLAND
By Ada Perry Landsburg
(Continued)
Editor’s Note: Ada Perry
Landsburg was born in the little
town of Sweetland, January 30,
1859. She was the daughter of
John and Lydia Perry, and spent
many years there as well as in
Relief Hill, North. Bloomfield’ and
Nevada City. She and her husband moved to Kuna, Idaho, to
be near “her daughter, Linda.
Some years after her husband
passed , away, she had the misfortune to fall, and has been bedridden for more than ten years.
Miss Culbertson was a wonder-—
ful woman, but we did not know
how wonderful, until after she
left us. Then we learned she was
a home missionary, that she had
gone into dangerous places, rescuing girls from dives and brothels sometimes at the risk of
losing her life.
Our next teacher, Neil McNeil
Kennedy, a Canadian by birth.
He was also well” educated in
English, but also a French, Latin
and Greek scholar, and an inde.fatigable worker and a wonderful
help to us older scholars. As he
gave lessons in the three languages gratis. After school each
night, he taught a large class in
French, a.smaller class in Latin,
and a class of two young ladies
in Greek. The writer studied
French and Latin, but did not
attempt the study of the Greek
Language. ,
The curriculum of the early
schoo] was very. different from
that of later times. School
then opened in the morning with
the teacher reading a few verses
from the Bible, and the recitation of the Lord’s Prayer, by the
teacher and scholars, a song to
open the school in the afternoon.This was continued for the first
few years, at least for the first
five or six, while we had the lady
teachers. i
All elasses were required to
stand with hands clasped behind
our backs with the exception of
the reading classes of course, and
the higher arithmetic classes. All
our lessons were oral, no written
work except at examinations.
Rules were very strict. No. sitting
stooped over book when studying,
lest we get a slap on the back
with the teacher’s ruler. Gymnasium exercises, (calisthenics)
once a day. As the rules were
strict, good order was maintained,
as the rod and ruler was -ever
handy. Punishment was not forbidden, and usually the teacher
was upheld by the-parents and
school board. For poor recitations often; the punishment was
standing on the floor for a given
length of time, with book in hand
to\ study the unlearned lesson.
Sometimes made to stay after
school “to study. No eating in
school of fruit and candy, neithter
chewing of gum. These rules were
well maintained, few daring to
break the rules.
BOOKS USED IN EARLY DAYS
Wilson's \Readers, a series of
books beginning with primer, first
reader, on through the fifth reader, six books. These were in the
writer’s estimation, a wonderful
set of books. The first lesson in
