II the statement is true that high

its about time that some one starts

DIR. MAKES GOOD START

DR.. Jones is to be commended
on the stand he has taken in re-
gard to stopping the spread of
whooping cough for two reasons,
one is because whooping cough is
more dangerous than commonly
supposed and the other is that the
law imposes on the health officer
the duty of seeing that contagious
diseases are not spread needlessly
and thoughtlessly.
1t will be noticed that Dr. Jones
does not say that children must
be kept indoors. Fresh air and
sunshine are two good things, not
only for many diseases, but this
one. While violent exercise is
not encouraged, because it usually
brings on a parOxysm OF coughing,
some light outdoor exercise is
beneficial because the patient is
not confined to a bed.
Whooping cough is not highly
communicable, that is when two
children are passing in the street
or perhaps thrown together a few
moments. one may not take it and
that is why for so many years the
disease was not considered very
much to be feared. But when the
sick and well childrrn are thrown
together in a room or crowd the
odds are strongly against the one
who hasn't had the disease. Again,
those who have the disease in the
home are not required to stay at
home if they have not the ailment.
Some people think that if they
are unfortunate enough to have a
disease, in the home That it is no
worse TO spread itsthan to contract
it but such is not the case. Any
one may take disease if the con-
dition of the system is such that
it will not overcome the germ or
poison taken into the system in
different ways and never be near
one having the sickness.
The doctor has started out right
but let US hope he will not stop
there. There are some foul SMELL
ing corners, not out 10 the sub
urbs,.that need cleaning out. The
fly, that greatest of all filth and
disease carriers has made his ap.
pearance telling two tales, one is
that be was born in a manure pile
or place of filth not far from the
place where he is found. because
be does not travel far from the
place of birth; the other is that he

places and that some one may

Republican papers over the
state have been making a big fuss
because Governor Hodges remov-
ed the Superintendent o. the Girls
Industrial Home at Beloit. They
claim that the woman was giving
satisfaction and should not have
been displaced. But to whom and
how many was she satisfactory
The lady in question was a Pro-
worked openly for the
success of that party and now she
feels aggrieved that her place is
given another. OF course any
fair minded person gives a public
school teacher the right to party
utilization or preference and there
should be no restraint from his
having a chance to say where he
stands, but if he makes or draws
party lines in his work then il the
party with which he is not in
sympathy, or does not support,
recalls him and puts III q man not
so aggressive or more in sympa-
thy with its views, there should
be no kick coming, If you're
with the goods acknowl-
edge the spoils.

responded. The writer was made
chairman and asked TO superintend the
work. 4 brief report Of how it was
done may help other villages:
Four hundred and fifty American
elms CwhiteJ and fifty hard maple
trees, eight to ten feet high. We're
bought from a large Ohio nursery
firm near by at 40 cents each; freight
and carriage to holes, cents each;
digging holes and planting. 10 cents
each; total GO cents each Nursery
grown stock was bought because IL
cost less than TO dig. scattering local
seedlings or suckers, besides being far
more compactly rooted and with far
better fbrous roots than any non.
nursery stock.
curious fact is that all these
American" elms from an Ohio nurs-
cry were born from American elm
seeds in Holland and had their tiny
first seasons growth in that Dutch
land Why? Because the first years
growth takes much hand labor, and
that costs about 60 cents per day there
and S1.75 to 50 for the same grade
here Further. their richer. black, sub
irrigated soil is better adapted TO the
tender first years life and vigorous
growth of the elm. At year old they
would weigh scarcely an ounce.
A week before the car of trees was
due to arrive here four good men dug
all the holes, about three feet in diam
eter and one foot deep and fifty feet
apart, peeling a thin turf off first and
placing the fine earth by itself When
the trees came they were taken to the
| holes, the roots that had been bruised
! in digging were cut off smooth. one
man held the tree. sighted for the true
| line. "churned' the tree up and down
/ TO work the loose earth all in around
/ the roots as it was shoveled in, slowly
at first, then tramped pretty firmly
when all was in except the turf. This
was inverted grass down and pressed
down firmly. Some of the land was
pretty wet. stiff clay, hard to pulver-
iZe. We did tine best we could in fining
and packing it around the roots.
So nearly all vacancies are now filed
and ten years from now thrifty trees
will beautify the streets. and twenty
years from now a grateful shade vii
cool those who walk the pavements
and fifty years from now this village
n fine residence suburb of Cleveland
will be known as the elm City" And
by the way, in all New England have
never seen a single elm more graceful
than scores of ours in Hudson, planted
forty or sixty years ago.

About five years ago the Greenfield
Sportsman's club received large con-
signment of pike perch from the govern
ment and placed between six and seven
million in the Connecticut river. During
the past year the Massachusetts, commits
sion has placed 10000 fry in the Con
necbicut and its tributaries between
Springfield and Greenfield, which viii
furnish a good foundation for future
catches The fish that is now known as
the pike perch was originally known as
wall-eyed pike and one or two were oc-
easionally caught in the river. This sea-
son large numbers have been taken and
they run as high as six pounds in weight
and furnish good sport and are an ex-
cellent table fish. They were not placed
in the river primarily with the idea of
furnishing the sportsmen game fish, but
with the idea that here was a fish that
could be taken with a worm as well as
with live bait, thereby giving the labor
ing man an opportunity to go at night
after work and enjoy the sport as well
as his more fortunate neighbor who
lcould go at any time,
