MAKING STRENGTH FROM MILK

Plenty of milk is one of the ways
of improving the general health of
children, authorities believe, and home
demonstration agents of the United
States Department of Agriculture and
the state colleges are making special
efforts to create public interest SO
that every child will get his share. In
some cities where many children are
found under-nourished and under-siz-
ed, milk is served in the schools. In
10 Indianapolis schools 1000 children
have been served half-pint of milk
each school day during the past year.
The milk is delivered at the schools
in Individual half-pint bottles. A hole
is punched in the cap of the bottle
and a straw is inserted. The children
help themselves as they file past and
afterwards return the empty bottles
to the rack. The work in Indianapo-
lis is maintained by the parent-teach-
er clubs, but it is largely self-support-
ing. The majority Of the children pay
or 3h cents day for milk and
crackers. Those who cannot pay get
the milk free. The children are each
measured and weighed and the chart
kept in his school room SO that he may
see whether he is up to normal or be-
low. All the children are much inter-
ested in weighing what they should.
The teachers report a marked i'm
provement in the school work and

THE FOSTER MOTHERS
A Tribute to the School Teacher
(By A. U. Mayield)

(By A. U. Mayfield)
You may talk about the mothers
And the fathers Of our land
The way they're making history
In this propagation band;
You may sing of how they worry
Ger their offspring day by day.
And of how they bear the burdens
While the kidlets are at play.
But ! want to gently whisper
Just word you dare not spurn;
It's the schoolma'am who is teaching
These young rascals how to learn.
You may talk about the fathers
And the mothers Of this land
OF the burdens they are bearing,
As they trudge along the strand.
To be sure, they are entitled
To all credit that is due
For they cut a mighty figure
In this propagation stew;
But want to tell you, Mister,
And I'm sure you will quite agree,
It's the schoolma'am who is training 3
Up the growth Of this young tree.

Mrs. z. N. Fulton went down to see
her husband in Vulcan. He got his
back hurt in the Humbolt mine.
There has been two real estate deals
here this week. Say, Mary, would
you call a laundry a real estate? ]
should think so, since there is SO much
dirt connected with it. Well, NJ. NJ.
Rose bought out the Perkins laundry,
and c. T. Sills sold to I. OLeary the
store building and lots where the lat
ter has his drug store. Come down
and we will have an ice cream soda.
John Risse, Jack Jennings and
Elmer Deering got back from the Cop

Plenty of good mining property in
our own vicinity. A. G. Clark and w.
A. Clark are going to work their two
mines in the Cochetopa district called
the Eastern Star No. l and No. 2. A
recent assay ran from So to $3.50 in
gold. The tunnel is now 20 feet and
the shaft 35 feet.
The town of Marble was incorporat-

some Sunday. They say it is a lovely
drive that way, in spite Of the long

have flying machines, and make the

wild dream guess. So many parties

SAYS CANNING COMPOUNDS
ARE INJURIOUS TO HEALTH

Very considerable quantities of
canning compounds are being used
throughout the country. Prof. NJ. X.
Allison of the Colorado Agricultural
College, declares these compounds are
deleterious to the health. She saws
Housewives should know that when
they take this means of insuring the
keeping qualities of canned goods,
they are engaged in q doubtful prac-
tice and one that cannot be extensive
~ or continually carried on with i'm
punity. Members of the family, and
especially the children, who depend on
the intelligence and wisdom of the
mother. have right to food that is
free from harmful effects. No house.
wife who uses so-called canning COM
pounds and powders can give her
family that assurance
Intelligence, cleanliness, and care
will enable the housewife to can sue
cesfully the fruits and vegetables at
her command without the use of any
chemicals such as those contained in
the powders referred to.
Foods spoil because of microbe ac-
tion. Approved canning methods
give one adequate means for the de-
struction of or the restraining Of the
growth of microbes. Chemical pre-
|servatives owe their power to their
poisonous effect on bacterial protopl-
asm. It is fair to assume that the
cells Of the human body are greatly
injured. 1t is fair to assume that
the accumulative effect is also bad.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what YOU
wash il with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsficd
cocoanut oil (which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless). is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for Shampooing as
this can't possible injure the hair.
Simply moiSten your hair with water
and rub 1t in. One or two teaspoon
fuls will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, and oleanseS the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The la,her
rnSes out easily and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruif and ex-
cessive oil The hair dries quickly and
evenly and it leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy TO manage.
You can get mulSiiied cocoanut oil
at most any drug store, 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months
