Develops School AS
Community Center

The March issue of Farm Blu
reau News gives the following &C.
count Of an example Of Community
spirit as manifested at Oak Hill
School.
A delicious chicken dinner was
prepared and served at the Oak
Hill School on the Lancaster Pike
by the teacher, Miss Emma Camp
bell. Miss Campbell believes in
developing the school as a COM
munity center. Since she has been
in that community there has been
developed a spirit of cooperation
among the parents. An active
Parent-Teacher Association has
been organized and the school
house is used not only five days of
the week for school, but on Sunday
as we'll for Sunday School.
Miss Campbell has developed the
hot lunch for the pupils in a most
interesting way. Two old book
cases were transformed into a
clever kitchenette, and the older
girls prepare the foods. The funds
for the equipment were obtained
locally. 1t was this equipment
which was used in preparation of
the dinner.
With the help of the boys and
girls, Miss Campbell has developed
from a packing box a freless cook
err which is being used in the pre-
narration of the hot lunches. She
has enrolled as demonstration of
the freless cooker in the work with
labor saving devices which is being
carried on in the community OF
Hockessin.

Must Guard Dairy
Cows From Weeds That
Taint Milk

In nearly every section of the Unit
ed States some weed appears in pas
lures in early spring and imparts for
eign favors and odors to milk. The
milk's market value is reduced and Of
ten it is total loss to the dairyman
Garlic or wild onion and bitter weeds,
the chief evils of this sort, give the
most trouble when cows are first turn
ed upon pasture in the spring. Al
though not ordinarily relished by
dairy cows, these weeds come at a
time when pasture grasses are not
plentiful and the cows are eager Tor
any green plant.
Dairymen can prevent such trouble
by keeping their herds from infested
pastures, or may largely reduce it by
proper management. Liberal feeding

WANT HALF
A MILLION BOOKS
FOR SOLDIERS
Library Association Sends S.
O. S. Call to American
People

To care for the American forces in
France and the Army of Occupation
i'm Germany, the American Library
Association is planning to deliver an
additional 100000 books in France be-
fore July first.
To meet the need, the A. L. A. has
found it necessary to call upon the
american people for half million
hooks. The balance of 100000 books
Is expected to come from the libraries
in American camps which are closing.
l. is the books by authors popular
n,th men, the volumes that wear out
l:aidly, of which the American Lib
rarv Association is most in need to
aid the forces overseas to while away
the weary hours of waiting. A list of
authors especially in demand includes
such writer's as Rex Beach, B. M.
Bower, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Zane
Grey, Henry Herbert Knipps, 0.
Henry, Peter B. Kyne, E. Phillips
Orpcnheim, Mary Roberts Reinhart,
Bertrand w. Sinclair, Booth Tarking-
ton, Steward Edward White, Harry
Leon Wilson and Harold Bell Wright.
The American Library Association
has practically unlimited tonnage for
the shipment of books and magazines.
Books brought into the public library
will he shipped within AZ hours to one
Of the overseas dispatch offices of the
4. /. 4. on the Atlantic seaboard and

How can men idling the time away
.aeNpected not to gamble and get into
c.hyr forms of evil?" declared a chap
lain overseas, writing in to the Paris
Headquarters of the A. L. A. to ask
for more books. "Send me every
thing you can as fast as you can.
now have five towns and some 1000

food come"
Books can be sent to the State Ii

"One For The Rlackbird,
One For The Crow

The advice about "Plant one kernel
for the blackbird, one for the crow,
one for the cutworm, and two to grow
is just as appropriate now as ever. 1t
l. never advisable to plant weak seed,
and it is the height of folly to attempt
to atone for the weakness of the seed
by painting a superabundance, as, ir-
respective of other conditions, weak
seed will produce only low-yielding
plants For good harvests it is es-
Sential to plant vigorous seed of ac-
cllmated and well-known varieties.
Experts of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture recommend
Planting the best quality seed little
thicker than the stand desired in order
to provide against unfavorable condi-
tons. If these unfavorable conditions
Go notarise, it is easier to remove
lew stalks from the growing crop
than it is to replant, which always
produces late-maturing, Improbable
plants. "Plant sufficient seed to Sc
cure good stand" say the Federal
Specialists, "as it is more practicable
and profitable to thin thick stand of
