THE RIGHT START.

In United States bureau OF sduca

the following: There are In the
schools OF the United States today ap
proximately 100000 pupils. Exten-
sive observations OF child health for
20 years and careful study OF statis-
tics and estimation of all conditions
lead to the following conclusions:
From 100000 to 100000 us to per
cent? Of these pupils have organic
heart disease. Over 10000. 900 go

as 90 per cent? have defective teeth.

Rare Minerals In Tasmania.

The number Of rare minerals found
to exist in Tasmania is constantly be-
ing added to, and the latest addition Is
molybdenite, which is used in the man
ufacture of "molybdenum Steel" to
which it gives special hardness and
toughness that makes 1t suitable for
use in propeller shafts, guns and
boilers. 1t is also used, to lesser ex-
tent, in the making Of pottery glass
and other things. The price of molyb-
denite is now $500 ton, or nearly
four times the present price of tin.

Mrs. Grundy. (Tracy City, Tenn.) 1903-1930, 1914-10-01

There is no direct mixture OF the
blood of the mother and that Of the
developing embryo. All the processes
contributing to its growth and main
tenance. including those of respira-
ton and excretion, take place through
intermediate structures. This is an
extremely wise provision of nature.
whereby much of an injurious char
acter In the blood Of the mother Ia
barred from reaching the embryonic
tissues. Undoubtedly. the cells which
form the organs Of nutrition for the
embryo have a capacity for selecting
the elements required for the purpose
OF nutrition not influenced by the ex-
igencies OF commerce.
Were 1t not for this intermediary
process, the embryo rarely would es-
cape being poisoned or otherwise in
jured by all the varied unhealthy
products and substances which the
ignorance OF some mothers allows to
be present In their blood during this
important period. Even with this
means of protection, the maternal
blood may be so utterly deficient in
nutritive qualities that the fluids
which reach the embryonic cells may
be very much impaired in quality.
ALI the tissues. including the bones
are dependent during the intrauterine
life on the supply Of nutrient material
derived from the maternal blood. Our
tissues require proteids, fats. carbo
hydrates, salts. water and oxygen
from the inspired air. II the blood Of
the mother is deficient in these ele
ments the growth and development
OF the embryonic bones will be re
tarded and the imperfections thus be
gun will be continued In infants
whose blood is not restored to nor
NAL state after birth.

less this is early corrected. there Is
as a result arrested development. The
effect Of faulty diet in the causation
of disease is demonstrated by expert
ments on animals. Puppies fed on
raw flesh exclusively for six months

chickens fed on starch develop poly

Life, bluod and food are 30 inti-
mately blended that 1t Is impossible
to consider one without the other,
and, blood being the connecting bond
between lite and food, it is OF the ut
most importance that it be maintained
at its highest point of efficiency,
which is, OF course, the normal.
We know comparatively little about
the process of digestion or of the finer
structure and composition of the red
blood corpuscle and of the blood
stream in general. But there Is one
fact conclusively proved and found to
be constant and universal, namely,
that good health and hemogiooin
content are synonymous. There are
other forms of iron in blood, but in
oemoglobin iron is constant In IA
per cent, and In this fact we have a
gauge on ones physical condition
probably superior to and OF more uni
versal application than any other Que
method. and 1t has the additional adj
vantage of not being matter OF per.
sonal opinion but of absolute fact.
II your hemoglobin content ranges
between 80 and 100 you are rated nor
NAL approximately; If below 80 you
are anemic, and the gravity OF the
condition can be very accurately
measured by the amount of hemoglo-
bin content distributed among the
number of corpuscles present.
1t is desirable to keep this fact well
in mind. l. is the poorly fed. Ill clad

CHURCH TAKES ACTION
Baptist Church At Little Rock Exp.ls Members
Who Signed Saloon Petitions.

Little Rock, Ark, March 21.-The
congregation of Emmanuel Baptist
Church of this city dropped several
members from its roll last night for
signing the liquor petitions which
we're recently filed with County
Judge Joe Asher. Several who
were cited for trial refused to ap-
pear at the trial and were dropped
without ceremony. The Emmanuel
Baptist Church adopted a resolution
several months ago that they would
not permit any member of that
congregation to sign whiskey peti-
tions, but this did not seem to deter
about 35 or 40 members from affix-
ing their signatures to the docu-
ment. Several others will be tried
next week. The officers Of the
church refused to divulee the
names of those who are under the
ban,

per ton. This makes a cheap feed.
1t is worth pound for pound about
half as much as good hay, in feed
ing to stock. Silage is a cattle feed
1t has little if any value for hogs,
because the hogs do not like it. 1t
is not the most satisfactory feed for
horses, though often fed successfully
to them. Silage is fine as a dairy
feed, and good for beef production.
Some fine results have been obtain
ed in this state feeding fattening

There is no trouble in making
plenty of milk and butter with the
aid of a silo. There is no trouble in
keeping a bunch of cattle in good
growing condition through the win
ter in this state with a slio. They
are alright. The silo agents are
going about all over Arkansas now
trying to sell silos. Remember that
the silos are good things, but do not
let an agent talk you into buying one
unless you can use it proftably. If
you own a farm and have enough
stock, buy a silo, If you haven't

WEEKLY LETTER
OF J. H. PAGE
Commissioner Has A Word
To Say To The Farmers
About SileS.

Somebody has said that a silo
and mortgage both would not stay
on the same farm. This may not
be literally true, but it emphasizes
the value of the silo. The silo is
not a new thing, but it is compara-
lively new in this state. | hope to
see great many silos built in Ark
ansas this year. However, some
things must be taken into considera-
ton before building.
A silo a lone will not make
money. You must have stock to
eat the contents of the silo during
the winter season. If you have the
silo and the stock, you must then
provide the silaee. Silos have their
greatest value as a means of provid-
ing a good feed at a small cost
Silaee is made from corn, by cutting
the corn in the field before it is
mature, and just as the ear hardens
and dents begin to form, AT that
time the stalks and blades are full
of moisture, and the feed is heavy
in weight, After the corn is cut
and hauled, it is run through a cut
ter, and chopped up into small
pieces, stalks, blades, ears and ALL
and stored in the silo. When pack
ed down 1t is kept air tight and re.
mains Green and fresh,
About ten tons of silaee can be
grown to the acre. Ten or twelve
acres of corn should fill l0O.ton
silo. Silaee can be grown and put
in the silo at from $3.50 to $500

It is believed that this information
will greatly help the health authors
ties in their campaign against the ty-
phoid fly. The health authorities have
long tried to prevent the breeding OF
flies in city stables through the use
OF iron sulphate as larvacide.. In
the case Of iron sulphate, however, q
larger amount is required, and other
insecticides such as paris green or
potassium cyanide, while effective In
killing the flies, are very expensive
or extremely poisonous. Borax, which
is used freely in most households. and
Is readily available in all parts Of. the
country. has the advantage Of being
comparatively non-poisonous and nom
fnhammable, readily soluble In water
and easy to handle. 1t can be pur-
chased at retail for ten cents pound,
and single pound used as directed In

vent the breeding of hundreds Of dan

borax and other larvacides will be
