ed by DIR. George E. Hunt in an address
before medical inspectors of the Indi-
annapolis public schools yesterday after
noon in the offices Of the City Board of
Health. DIR. Hunt pointed out that the
state is spending thousands of dollars
to cure tubercular patients but has
made no provision whatever to look
after the welfare of the mouths of the
patients. which he deemed one of the
essentials in fighting the disease. DR.
Hunt estimated that there were about
$4,000 children In Indianapolis public
schools in need OF dental treatment.
DR.. Hunt laid particular stress on the
fact that the baby teeth of the child
should be preserved and that it was a
mistaken idea to think they were not

Six councilmen left their constituents
without representation last night.
The meeting was of sufficient i'm
portance to warrant the people of
Hammond in arriving at the conclu-
sion that the six men who STAYED
away were actually and at heart
against the measure, against progress
and did not have the courage to at
tend the meeting and vote their real
convictions.
Inc questions involved were such
that no matter how a councilman
voted he would incur the enmity of
some people. And SO six councilmeu
stayed away If the recall was in
effect in Indiana a petition ought to
be circulated recalling the six men
who did not have the moral stamina
to attend meeting and vote their
hnal decision in the matter.

to the details of the business. The
man with a few apple trees, a few
berries, little of this and little of
that seldom takes good care of any
thing, hence makes little profit on
anything.
If a man produces fewer things and
more of each he is better able to
provide the most labor saving ma
chinery for the production of each.
Men employed are more apt to become
proficient where considerable OF one
thing is produced and on the other
hand it is easier to hire men who are
skilled where there is considerable of
one thing to do.
The specialist is much better able
to market to advantage. He usually
has enough of one thing so that he
can afford to give considerable time
and attention to looking up market
and on the other hand buyers will
look up his goods and give him con-
sheraton.
After passing observation on good
many farms in Western Washington
the writer feels that the majority of
our farmers are trying to putter
around with too many things and that
they should study their tastes, their
soil, their local climatic conditions
and their markets and choose some
good line of poductlon suited to their
individual conditions and become
proficient in the chosen line as rapid
ly as possible.

This latest picture of the office force
of the William Galloway Company,
which appeared in Waterloo, Iowa,
daily paper recently, tells Of manu-
featuring accomplishment seldom
equaled.
A dozen years or so ago a farmer s
boy, who had left the farm to get
into the busy life of the city world,
and who had successfully served as
apprentice, salesman and partner in
a manufacturing plant, worked his
way up to place of some authority,
decided to go into the manufacturing
business alone. He had worked out
a plan whereby he could manufacture
goods of high quality, and yet sell
them at prices away below the ordi-
nary. He decided to start out in the
Harrow Cart business. He rented a
small building, with a tiny office,
and little factory back of it.
So was born what is now one of the
country's largest manufacturing
establishments, the William Galloway
Company of Waterloo, Iowa. 1t is
another instance Of what strict bust
ness integrity, com bined with rare
manufacturing and sales ability will
do.
A short time ago | went to Waterloo
to take a look over the Galloway

plant | had heard it said that
Galloway was a anuafcturer In
small way only, and that most of his
goods we're in reality made for him,
and that he was really jobber.
You can imagine my surprise, then,
when on getting oft the car at Gallo
way Station, on the outskirts OF
Waterloo, I was confronted by an
enormous manufacturing plant, cover
ing several acres of land, with the
hum of industry in the air, and smoke
belching from scores OF chimneys.
Concrete buildings, too, with concrete
sidings for the cars to carry away the
big Galloway output and surrounded
on all sides by broad expanse of
lawns, laid out in landscape form. 1
came looking for an office and | found
an industry.
THE GALLOWAY FACTORIES.
It would be impossible for me to
describe in detail the thousand and
one details of this manufacturing
establishment. A building covering
many thousands of square feet, filled
with automatic machinery, with
scores of happy, busy, expert work
men, means little in print, because
nothing could reproduce to your mind
the b1gness of 1T all. But, we're you

ing through successive stages, one
hand to another, one automatic ma
chine to another. from one expert to
another, in perfect chain, until
finally assembled it stood complete
and ready to shook up" to the work
on the farm, you would realize as l
did, Mr.. Reader. that mistakes could
not occur, that the product must be
as nearly perfect as human ingenuity
could work out.

beginning. On into the Manure

SPECIALIZING In FARMING.

By Geo. Severance, Superintendent
Western Washington Experiment
Station, Puyallup, Wash.
The advantages of and necessity for
specialization are becoming more and
more marked each year. If you wish
to see orchards that are we'll cared
for and returning big profits go where
people specialize in orcharding;
Wenatchee or Hood Rive, for example.
If you wish to see highly profitable
berry fields visit the berry specialists
Of Puyallup Valley. II you wish to
see fine livestock visit the specialists
in livestock. To see profitable dairy
you will visit dairy specialist. If
you wish to see neglected, tumble
down establishments visit the men
who practice extreme diversitication,
having a little of everything on their
hands. The most prosperous COM
munities are those where specialized
ton is the rule.
By specialization we do not mean
the growing of single crop but
rather the selection of some leading
crop or line of production and the
growing of such additional crops or
the addition of such secondary lines
of production as may be necessary to
maintain the fertility of the farm;
keep the soil occupied, permit proper
distribution of labor, provide for
utilization of all by products, etc.
For example: GARNER A" is a
potato specialist but to keep his soil
in condition grows clover. To occupy
the soil Immediately after the removal
of the potatoes and to serve as a
nurse crop for the clover, winter wheat
is seeded at very little cost for
prearation of the soil. The wheat and
clover are secondary crops but are
essential to we'll balanced system.
A specialist in dairying would work
out a we'll balanced cropping system
that would enable him to support the
greatest number of COWS on his acre
age but would not divert his atten-
tion by growing few potatoes or
onions or other crops that might bear
no relation to dairying or to main
tanning the soil in proper condition.
If he sells cream or butter he might
keep hogs to advantage in using up
by products of the dairy. This would
be a good example of judicious
specialization though the specialist
would be growing several crops and
producing two lines of animal pro-
ducts. The whole system would
center primarily on dairying.
There are many very evident reasons
for the success of the specialist. The
man who follows one well chosen line
is much more apt to master the de-
tails of successful production and is
more apt to give thorough attention
