PURSUITS FOR
CONSUMPTIVES
By Frederic ]. Haskin

discontinue it in case of hemorrhage
or other incapac.ty. The majority of
physicians advocate chicken-ra as
a practical occupation for the aver
age tubercular patient, requiring lit
tie original Investment and a mini
mum OF physical exertion. The work
of mixing the daily food supply, set
ting the hens gathering the eggs and
disposing of the young chickens is not
apt to make any great demands on the
vitality The patient should live in
a shack or tent even more accessible
to the open air than is the shelter of
his chickens, and eat many fresh eggs
Many poultry establishments, orig
inally undertaken by tuberculars as a
means of bare existence, have become
prosperous business ventures. In
Tucson the tubercular poultry-r -raisers
have formed an association which
holds its meeting in the rooms of the
Chamber of Commerce, subscribes for
numerous poultry journals and gives
ADVICE to beginners. 1t has mon
opoly on the fresh egg and poultry in
dustrX of Tucson.
Flower-raising, too, is an attractive
and remunerative employment for the
invalid whose cure is the open air.
IN southern California the amateur
flower garden has become an insti-
tuition among tubercu1ar patients, who
sell flower decorations to the popu-
lar restaurants. In fact, the anna
teur garden is springing into eXis-
tence in all parts of the country so
that new profession has been Gre
ated-that of the garden specialist.
There is a tremendous popular inter
est in gardening. The womens clubs
have taken it up and are holding reg
ular classes in which they employ the
specialist to lecture and certain towns
have established community classes
for children when gardening is not in
cluded in the public school currieu-
lum.
Chicago school teacher, display
ing symptoms of tuberculosis. was ad-
vised by her physician to adopt some
outdoor employment. The teach
er had heard of the special train
ing in gardening work carried on up
on the large estates of England, and
she. decided to spend a summer there,
attending one of the castle schools
Her profession learned, she returned
to this country and set up an estab-
lishment in a small country place near
Chicago. From here she travels to
each suburb OF the city, instructing
classes in amateur gardening and dis
cuSSing horticultural possibilities of
that particular community.
Farming of any kind is an ideal oc-
cupation for the tubercular the ma
jority of the working routine being
conlined to the open, and, If handled
properly, is more remuneratiVe than
most other outdoor professions.

Dauphin. Pa, May IA district
Sunday school convention of Dauphin
county met last evening in the Trinity
Evangelical Church.

Friday, December %, 1916.

The Bennington Banner approves OF
Christmas tree cutting IL the job is
thoroughly done, arguing that the en-
croachment Of the trees destroys what
was formerly valuable pasture land.
In some cases which have come under
our observation the trees have been
chopped down regardless of the future
conditions and the land left covered
with haggled stumps OF various
heights, with The ground strewn with
limbs which became a fire menace
when dried When it comes to the
problem OF restoring former pastures
and farmlands. The Phoenix wishes
to record its opinion that thousands
of acres never fitted by nature for
farms were cleared OF forests years
ago These lands ought to have re-
NAMED forest lands, as they are suit
able for growing timber and nothing
else. Vermont today needs intensive
and scientific culture Of lands suitable
for cultivation more than It needs de
struction of forests to add TO our till
able acreage. -Bratteboro Phoenix.
1t is undoubtedly true that in the
early days Of Vermont some land was
cleared that might better have been
left in forest, but it is also true that
during the past forty years thousands
Of acres Of tfllable land in Vermont
has been allowed to 80 back to forest
The reason was that because Of the
heavy emigration to the west from the
rural towns there we're not enough
people left to TIL the farms. The
town OF Gullfold which borders Brat
tleboro on The south. had in 179L
when the first census Of Vermont was
taken, a population of over 2f00
people ana was the most ropulous
town in the state. II 1910 when the
latest census was taken the popula.
ton of Guilsord was 1853, a decrease
OF more than two-thlrds in I20 years.
It is a fact that Gunrord was over
populated in 1880 for an agricultural
town but it is also a fact that the
| town is underpopuiatcd today ana
The Banuel. believes that il could
point out TO the PhoeniN fifty good
farms in the town Of Guuiord that
are not occupied today and net a few
that have grown mp asaiD to forest
Even the thriyina aud growing manu-
featuring town Of BNgdeApro has
within its borders several one-time
farms which supported happy families
where now It would take "a" person
familiar with the locality TO Htde the

West Wardsbolo there are fully a

~ name Of ~Podunk" there is a whole

Despite the fact that it was the

a good article of ball, the game wa
we'll played and interesting through

fine form and pitched an ex client
game, allowing 6 hits and getting
IA strike-outs. Armstrong for Park
Falls worked up until the seventh
frame, when he was relieved by
McQuil!en. Up until the ninth in
ming Park Falls had failed to get a
man around and it looked as though
they would be shut out. In their
last time up, however, they scored
three times.
In their first time up Hurley
scored twice. Post getting a home
run with Ross on second. Ross got
a base on balls and was sacrificed
to second by Faul. The hitting
honors of the day went to Post

in his four trips to the plate. Two
more were added to Hurley's side

He recited the history of the Demo
cratic administration in the United
States and said that they had all
brought poverty and depression to
the people.
Il hesitate in criticizing the pres
ident of the United States" said
Mr.. Jefris, "but l feel that in the
