CITY KIDS HAVE
DEVELOPMENT
Theory That Country Chill
dren Are Stronger
Gets Setback.

Indianapolis, May 1.-THE theory
that country children are better de-
veloped physically than city bred
youngsters received a severe blow al
the hands Of DR.. William A. Ocker,
director Of physical training and
school hygiene in indianapolis, who
spoke at the children's section OF the
National Conference of Charities and
Corrections at English's theater, DR..
Ocker said that walking through
miles of mud or snow, sitting through
the school sessions with wet feet and
eating cold lunches, all had their adj
verse effect upon the health of the
country school children. DR.. Tall
ferro Clark gave statistics proving
that the health of country children
was not as good as that of city chill
dren and that they were under weight
and under height. He advocated
medical inspectors for the rural
schools.

Some eighteen or twenty years ago
a few years after Messrs. Congleton
Bros. came here and went into the
lumber business, a young man came
into their Office and said he wanted
lumber to build him a home, but did
not have any money to pay for it and
might not have for sixteen years, but
would certainly pay for it if he lived.
Being two kind-hearted old bachelors
they believed he would eventually
pay and let him have the lumber. A
few days ago that young man, now
past middle life, CAME and hunted up
Mr.. Thomas Congleton, the firm hav-
ing retired from business and Mr..
William Congleton having died some.
years ago, made good his promise
and paid the account in full after all
these years.

FARMERS OF
THE NORTH
Are Taking a Lively Inter
est in Agricultural Pro-
gress.

County Agent A. M. Casey and w.
f. Keith are arranging chautauqua
for Prof. Lykins' school at Crofton
for the latter part OF June. The chat
huqua will be addressed by agricul-
tural experts and others.
Mr. Casey spent most of last week
in North Christian visiting farms; a
meeting was held at Consolation
church Saturday night There was
a good attendance. Squire Handy
was in the chair.
Some time was spent in the Dog
wood neighborhood. Squire Wood
burn is taking an interest IN progress
sive agriculture and is thinking seri-
ously of doing some "up-to-date, I"
out and out good solid land-building
this year. He will probably sow
crimson clover in August and has his
mind on lime also. His farm is inn
proving under careful management.
He has fine Red Top meadow.
Mr.. Cato and o. N. Boyd, also of
Dogwood, are doing some good solid
thinking about their problems.
Squire Barnes has fine field Of
clover.
Mr.. J. H. Brown, of Consolation,
has good farm. He will sow Grim
son clover this year. Mr.. Dave Nc
Cord, DIR. w. w. Durham and Mr..
R. F. Pool are also progressive farm
ers who are building up their land.
The Honey Grove neighborhood
was also visited recently by Mr..
Casey. He found there a coterie of
progressive farmers headed by Squire
Sylvester Reese, |. N. Harmed, j. j.
Harmed, w. L. Harmed and others.
Squire Reese has flock of goats to
do his grubbing for him, thus econo-
MIXING on the labor bill. They are
chewing some sassafras bushes.
When the goats have finished chewing
a flock of sheep will be put on to con-
tinue the good work. You can't beat
'em.
Meetings will be held at Honey
Grove. Coming back to town from
Kelly, you will see a splendid field of
clover on Mr.. Low Johnson's farm.
This field has been lined, with the
exception of small part; the line of
demarkation is very marked. There
is practically no clover on the part
not lined and only a poor stand
where a half dose of lime was APP
piled, as against fine stand where
two tons was put on. The land cries
for lime.

Babies Die Like Flies.

Although the upper classes in South
America live richly, even extrava-

poverty of the poems is for the most

the age of 2.
