Millions of Boys and Girls
Have Physical Defects Which
Impede Their Development

Fifty per cent of 25,O0O,OO0 boys and
girls Of school age in this country have
physical defects and. ailments which
impede their normal development, nc
cording to the annual report of the ex-
ecutive committee of the national phys
lcal education service. The estimate
was made following numerous investi-
cations conducted by members of the
committee.
A lack Of proper physical education,
such as play, athletics, work and gym
nastlcs was attributed by the commit
tee as the cause for the physical disa-
bllity, and a broad program of state
and federal legislation for the re-
CURED education was urged as means
Of bringing children to the proper
standard.
Members of the executive committee
include Major-General w. C. Gorgas,
Dr. Charles Mayo, John Mitchell, DR..
Thomas A. Storey, William Kent, DIR.
Richard G. Cabot, DR.. J. II. McCurdy,

four diskings to a depth of or

number of diskings and the int rivals
between them varying according to
the length Of the period between plow-
Ing and planting. When 1t is neces-
sary to replant early injured corn,
pillow the field deeply and thoroughly
and then give three or four deep disk
ings at intervals Of two or three days.
These practices necessarily involve ad-
ditional labor, but they prevent root
aphis injury and also put the field in
much better physical condition. Plow-
ing in the fall before the ant colonies

as useful as spring blowing but II

Early fall blowing, followed by fire.
by the root aphis that season, is a good
practice from the standpoint of com

object Is to repel the ants by the use
of an OdDrous substance offensive to

These materials destroy neither the
ants nor the aphids but tend to drive
away the ants, the presence of which

SMUDGE SAVES POTATO CROP
"Smoke Screen" Successfully Applied
to Field Of Tubers In Hardin
County, Ohio.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
A member Of the farm bureau in
Hardin county, Ohio, saved a 2O-acre
field Of late potatoes from frost last
fall by the use Of smudge. The po-
tatoes had made practically no growth
during July and August because Of dry
weather, but were maturing in good
shape when, on the night OF Septem-
Der p the temperature dropped be-
low the freezing point. Preparations
had been made for just such an emer.
gency. Baled straw had been placed
In readiness. and at 1890 that night
the fires were started. II was found
that heavy smoke could be made by
using wet straw after the flame had
been applied. Fires were kept burning
In 102 places, and 1t Is estimated that
ten tons Of straw were used. The en-
tire field was kept covered with smoke,
and after the sun had been up few
hours the following day 1t was plain
that the potatoes had been saved. The
potatoes remained green until October
1. Other foliage. not completely COW
cred with smoke. was killed by the
frost.

Polar Star and Some of
the Wonders of This Great
Beacon of the Far North

Most people, II they know nothing
else Of astronomy, at any rate know
the pole star, the one star which seems
to keep its place in the heavens with
out movement OF any kind. There are
n great many, however. says the
Rehoboth Sunday Herald, who do not
know what n wonderful thing it Is, in
looked at through n good telescope to
be two stars and not one. There Is
one fairly bright one, of what is known
as the second magnitude, and another
of the ninth magnitude close to 1t.
But that is not ALL The brighter OF
the two is really three stars revolving
round one another, or, rather, round
their common center of gravity, like
three children playing "ring ring OF
roses"
This secret Is revealed to us by what
is perhaps the most astonishing of all
scientific instruments, the spectroscope
1t not only tells us what the stars are
made Of, but whether they are moving
toward us or away from us.
When you stand facing the star you
are always facing north. The reason
that it does not appear to move as the
! others do is that it is nearly In line
| with the axis of the earth. Its dis
lance from MS is enormous. This can
be judged from the fact that although
the earth in its journey around the sun
is today about 19O,OO0,0O0 miles from
where it was six months ago, that
mikes no appreciable difference to Its
distance from the pole star. 1t must
therefore be many times 100000
| miles away.

the eggs hatch the young aphids are

the roots Of certain wild plants such
as smartweed. If corn Is then plant

BETTER HOG CHOLERA SERUM
Under Federal Supervision Production
Has Increased and Quality Has
Been Improved.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Less than 1 per cent of hog cholera
serum manufactured under federal
supervision during the last year was
found to be unfit for use and its sale
prevented by federal officials OF 271,-
402, $50 cubic centimeters of serum
made in licensed establishments, 2,4S8,-
681 was declared unfit. Corresponding
figures for last year were 3S,S61 go
cubic centimeters Of serum produced
and 5,O36,S75, or more than per cent,
was unfit and likewise withheld from

This comparison shows that federal
supervision has increased the produc-
ton of serum for combating hog chol.

corn plants, where they continue to
live upon the sap, thereby robbing
the corn of its nourishment and often
causing a heavy loss to the crop.
Cultural Practices.
Stir the soil thoroughly previous to
planting. The object Of this pro-
cedure is to disturb the ant colonies
and scatter and kill the aphids so as
to enable. the plants to make a SUBJ
stantial growth before the ant and
aphid colonies can become re-establish-
ed, and also to prevent the growth Of
weeds upon which the aphids live,
making 1t necessary for the ants to
carry the surviving aphids to new
fields. If infested fields are to be re-
planted to corn, pillow them to depth
