NO POSSIBILITY OF ERROR
Truck Counter Does Its Work Auto
maticaIly and 1t Is Said Cannot
Make a Mistake.

An ingenious machine designed to
automatically count truck loads Of
merchandise Is invented. 1t is claimed
that where any considerable amount
Of shipping is being done, the truck
counter will frequently save its cost
in a single day through the elimina-
ton of errors that invariably creep
In where the usual method Is en-
ployed.
The counter Is so made that when
the truck rolls on to the apron, the
weight Of the truck load presses the
apron down, the truck wheels move
the lever forward, and the load Is
tailed. AS the trip lever moves for
ward, 1t also goes down, and with
it the narrow apron; therefore the
platform becomes so nearly level that
no resistance is offered to the
trucker.
AS the truck passes off Of the ma
chine, the latter is instantly set for
the next load. The machine cannot be
tripped by the weight Of the men push
ing the truck or by returning with
either an empty or a loaded truck

QUICK PASTURES FOR SHEEP
Rye, Wheat, Barley, Oats, etc., Are
All ExceIent-Cowpea Is Favorlte
Among Legumes.

For a quick-growing sheep pasture
some of the grain plants are excellent.
Rye, wheat, barley, oats, etc., are all
used. Some Of the peas and other
legumes are often used, the common
cowpea being a general favorite for
this purpose. Sorghums are big help
when sown In the spring to furnish
sheep pasture during the dry deather
of midsummer, when the meadow
grasses are brown and the bluegrass
is apparently dead.
There Is a great list of grasses that
may be used in establishing a tempo
rary sheep pasture. When pasture is
needed in short time it is necessary
to pick a grass that will establish IT.
self at once and begin furnishing for
age. Timothy is fairly satisfactory and
so are all the clovers. Take timothy
and red clover as combination to
be sown early in the spring, with a
nurse crop of oats and you have a
mixture that is hard to beat. Cowpeas
sown In the corn will make a fine late
pasture for sheep and lambs.
Alfalfa has been recommended as a
sheep pasture. It has points in its
favor, but these are more than off
set by Its disadvantages. 1t will grow
quickly and furnish vast amount Of
grazing, but unless 1t Is well mixed
with other grasses its value Is doubt
full for this reason: 1t is likely to
cause bl0ating. This, with the harm
to the alfalfa that will be caused by
the characteristic close grazing Of the
sheep makes it a poor plant for
sheep pasture.

Plans Made To Build
Children's Hospital

Virginia Anti-Tuberculosis As
ISOLATION to cooperate with
Catawba Teachers association to
build hospital for crippled children.
Plans were determined upon at
meeting of the board of this week
to cooperate with the Catawba
Teachers Association to raise
funds for a hospital for crippled
children. The need for such, a
hospital has been much discussed
by the tuberculosis Association and
it had been determined to do this
piece of work as soon as the Negro
Sanatorium, in which the Associa-
ton took so active interest, had
been provided for.
"It is time we did something for
our crippled children,'' said Cap
tain W. w. Barker, President of
the Virginia Anti Tuberculosis As
ISOLATION when seen today. -Four
hundred and twelve children I'M
der fifteen years of age died in Vir-
ginia from tuberculosis in 1914.
Many of them died of tuberculosis
of the bone. Many others have
the disease, and no provisions are
made for their treatment. There
is no special hospital or ward in
the State for these children. The
general hospitalr take them in lin
tied numbers, but the long period
of treatment necessary makes it
almost essential that special pro-
visions shouldbe made for them
Many of these children if treated
early would become self support
ing citizens and would have practi-
cally their full opportunity for
happiness and service"
1t is planned to use portion OF
the funds procured by the sale of
Red Cross Christmas Seals for this
object. The proceeds from thes g
were used in the same manner to
further the cause of the Negro
Sapatorium. The full plans for
the children's sanatorium have not
been worked out, but a special
committee has already been ap-
pointed consisting of DR.. Ennion

Richmond, DR.. Charles Grandy of
