Such Proof as This Should Convince
Anv Medina Citizen

The public endorsement Of a local
citizen is the best proof that can be
produced. None better. none strong

zens, addresses his friends and neigh
bors, you may be sure he is thorough
ly convinced or he would not do so.
Telling ones experience when it is for
the public good is an act Of kindness
that should be appreciated. The fol-
lowing statement given by a resident
of Medina adds one more to the many

in year. 1t offers the fastest and
cheapest possible source Of meat in
crease. That is why it is so impor-
tant that everyone help in poultry
production next year.
The more poultry and eggs we pro-
duce the more poultry and eggs we
will eat. The more of that food we
eat the less beef and pork we will
need or want-leaving that much more
to go to Europe. Thus we do indi-
rectly the thing we can't do directly.
By poultry production we get quickly
more meat to win the war, although
we can not increase in that time the
number of our meat animals.

cally every farm activity will be Of
fered to the farmers of Ohio by the
College of Agriculture, Ohio State Uni

weeks session from Jan. to March 1.
1918. Since the courses will be given
as war emergency, no previous high
school or college training will be re-
quired; the minimum age limit is II.
Because of the unusual requirement
of trained men for milk testers and
other dairy activities, two four weeks
courses will be given. Farm Dairy
ing and Advanced Registry Testing"
will run from Jan. / to Feb. l, and
"Dairy Manufacturers" from Feb. 4
to March 1.
Besides instrumental work in soil
fertility, farm crops, horticulture, ag-

safe GIVES ADVICE
ABOUT SMALLPOX

Facts and advice about smallpox in
teresting to Medina county in view Of
the diseases presence here for several
weeks past, were offered by the divis-
ion of communicable diseases of tho
State Department of Health Tuesday.
The upper Miami valley and the dis
trict tributary to Cleveland and Akron
were the most extensive areas of small
pox infection in the state during Oc-
tober, according to figures recently
compiled. Shelby, Mama, Montgom-
cry and Green counties in the former
area reported cases, and Medina, Guy
ahoga, Wayne, Summit, Portage and
Trumbull in the latter. Hooking,
Franklin, Guernsey, Lucas, Marion and
Carroll counties also had cases.
Some of the departments advice fol-
lows:
\ Smallpox may be avoided and pre-
vented by vaccination.
It is transmitted by contact with
persons having the disease or with
their clothing. ,
It appears with chills, fever and
other symptoms, about two weeks at
ter exposure. The patient is ordin-
arily very sick for four days, after
which the rash appears and he feels
well. The rash develops into grayish'
blister-like pustules.
Vaccination within four days after
! exposure will generally prevent taking
smallpox. Every exposed person
should be vaccinated at once.
Patients whose eruption is slight car
transmit the disease as well os others
Chickenpox in adults is rare. View
with suspicion any reported case.

food, in the form of poultry and eggs.
This will release almost that many
pounds of other meats,-pork and
beef,-for our armies in Europe, and
for the armies and civilian population
of the allies.
If we do not produce this amount |
of poultry we may find ourselves
short Of meat food to just that extent,
1t is patriotic duty of the utmost |
| importance that every farmer and ev-
cry person nj town do his part in pro-
ducing this increase of poultry, which
will help to win the war. 1t is also
profitable proposition for the av-
erage individual. Both town and
farm families will produce, at its low
est cost, meat food for their own use,
and, by putting up eggs for winter
use will further reduceliving expenses.
The poultry will be'handled as by
product of the farm and back yard;
each flock being large enough in
numbers to utilize the scraps and
waste from the kitchen and the "pick-
ups" around the place, supplemented
by some feed. But no flock shoulc
be out of proportion to the grount
space and kitchen wastage-not 81
= large that feed will become, relatively
\ too costly an item. The idea is no
' only to increase our poultry produc
ton, but to do it economically; to d
it at very little cost, by turning tn
waste Of kitchen and backyards a
over the United States into chicken
l and eggs. Fowls are the only mediul
, through which good deal Of thl
waste can be transformed into val
able food product.
Because Of the war meat reserves I
the world are diminished. The herr

lce selves, but to feed Europe to lar

NON-SAVERS CLASSED
AS AIDERS OF ENEMY

The food situation is so serious,
says Fred c. Croxton, Federal Food
Administrator for Ohio, that we feel
it now necessary to ask the citizens
of Ohio to do certain definite things
in order to permit the Government to
fulfill it's obligations to it's armies and
to it's allies. Only by saving food in
every home can this be accomplished.
Ohio households have enrolled by
the hundreds Of thousands, pledging
their support to food saving. Ohio
has always responded to every call Of
her country.
In the present food crisis our prob
lem is to save wheat and meat, to
feed our soldiers and our allies abroad
this winter.
We can do this by observing the fol
lowing definite program:
Il Make Tuesday meatless day.
: 2.-Use less pork products at al
times.
, 3.-Make every evening meal wheat
: less,

our poultry production next year is
an indispensable item in the nations
food production progrann--a program
which must be carried out II we are
to win the war.
The meat supplies available for
European use are short. Meat must
be supplied if the war is won-by the
forces who fight for freedom. The war
will be won If we fail in food produc-.
tion-but not won by us. We must
understand what will happen II we
do not provide the enormous quantl-
Ties of foodstuffs that the allies can
not produce for themselves

chickens and eggs? Of course not.
But by greatly increasing our pro-
duction of chickens and eggs, and by
eating those chickens and eggs our
selves we will, naturally, eat that much
less beef and pork. In turn, that
beef and pork can be sent to Europe.
The United States Department of
Agriculture calls upon the country to
double poultry production next year;
That can be done if the farms will
keep an average of 100 hens instead
| Of an average of 40 hens, as at pres
| ent, and if every family in town will
keep enough hens in the backyard te
produce all the eggs used by that fam
