therefore, the kissing of child upon the
mouth by person with eors throat is hazar-

the practice of allowing children to kiss their
ailing paym mates. 1t would be wise to exercise
great caution in this matter if not to discon-
tinue the practice of kissing upon the mouth
altogether.

How To UTILIZE OLD FRUIT CANS - Per-
haps one of the most appropriate uses of an
old fruit can that can be devised is to make it
contribute to the growth of new fruit to fill
new cars. This is done in the following man
ner The can is pierced with one or more pin
holes, and then sunk in the earth near :the
roots of the strawberry or tomato or other
plants. The pin holes are to be of such size
that when the can is filled with water the fuid
can only escape into the ground very slowly.
Thus quart can, properly arranged, will ex-
tend it's irrigation to the plant through Pc
riod Of several days the can is then reflled.
Practical trials of this method of irrigation
leave no doubt of it's sucoess. Plants thus
watered flourish ard yield the most bounteous
rel SIo ~. IN
planting of old fruit cans, as here indicated,
will be found profitable as a regular gardening
operation.
