ON INFANT MORTALITY

1t is estimated that every year. in
the United States, sixty-four hundred
children die of tuberculosis. The
average age at which they die is
twelve and half years, which means
that for six years they have been re-
ceiving education from the state.

child has cost for six years teaching,

SCIENTIFIC FARMING
MEANS BETTER HOMES

Colorado Springs, Colo That the edu-
cational work OF the agricultural experts
and speakers who accompanied tho
Rock Islands International Dry Farm
ing Congress special train through the
semi arid portion OF eastern Colorado
last week will be a stimulus towards
more profitable farming and better
homes, is the opinion Of conservative
members OF the party, as well as the
principle farmers and business men all
aloung the route. The campaign which
was opened by Gov. Shafroth, himself
an ardent ADVOCATE of dry farming at
Colorado Springs, was most successful
from every stand point. At each stop
along the Rock Island lectures were
delivered by professors from the State
agricultural College and the Govern
nent experiment station as well as by
the officers OF the railroad aud the dry
farming congress. The every day prob
lem of farm life have been the topics Of
discussion, and it has been the constant
aim OF the seekers to place before the
farmers practicle hints and suggestions
Every effort has been made by the Dry
Farming Congress to educate the far
mer to the point where he will apply
proven and scientific methods best a.
dopted to his individual conditions and
the valuable efforts of the trip in this
respect, will be felt for long time to
come. While the men were listening to
talks on what to plant and how and
when to cultivate, the women came
ia for their share of advice OF up bnild-
ing OF the home, and the elevation Of
the home influence, Technical lectures
were given on domestic science, and a
graduate nurse gave medical advice for
relief in accident and emergency cases.
Representatives, OF the International
Congress OF Farmers recently organized,
were on the train and the aims OF this
association which will hold It's first
aanuai meeting in Colorado Springs
during the session Of the Dry Farming
Congress, beginning October 10, we're
placed before the farm women. Tue
women are takeing deep interest in
this movement and the lectures were
frequently interrupted with requests
for further information. One OF tho
most investigating features of the trip
has been the lecture arranged for boys
and girls OF the farm. Talks on rudi-
mentary farming were madeby men who
have specialized on subjects for child
ren and it was interesting to note the
enthusiasm with which the boys and
girls received suggestions to form clubs
and to study agriculture with a view Of
competeing for prizes at the dry farming
exposition in Colorado Springs this fall
1t is estimated that not less than eleven
thousand people heard the lectures, and
from the interest displayed at all points
it is certain thar the Dry Farming Con-
gress will have as its guests in Colorado
Springs this fall, delegations Of farm
men and women from practically every
place in the dry farming district.
