That farm production in 1919 is

partment of Agriculture. To what
extent these demands are to be met
by the farmers Of the United States
is question Over-production along
any line is not desirable, nor profita-
Bile, so the department is urging a
program more or less conservative.

much az he did before the war, If he
is to keep his business on a firm basis
A detailed survey Of the agrlcul-
tural situation has been made, and
the department concludes that a wise
livestock program will involve main
tanning the number of horses and
mules without material increase, a
normal increase in the number of
dairy cows and dairy products, nor

Young men will presently need IS en-

Every mans old job should be open

regiments pour back, there may be
more work still needed to fill the
needs Of the men.
Each village and town and city

Initiative in these directions will

peace az hand u IL not unreasonable
to suppose that after few months
immigration might begin TO flow into
is old channels.
Nearly four millions Of our own
men are In process Of receiving hon
CRADLE discharge from the army and
navy. and will have OF be rc-absorb-
ed into the civilian life Of the coun-
try. Just how the readjustment Of
business may progress or how much
unemployment there may necessarily
be no one yet can tell.
We may not Mt once have jobs for
all our own men. They have been
our defense and in turn are entitled
to our protection.
A restriction OF general immigra-
ton for some time TO come can harm
no one, and may be of the greatest
value to our young men. As soon as
reconstruction has progressed far
enough so that conditions can be fore
seen, il will be an easy matter to let
down the bars.
The time to attend TO this limiting
Of immigration is the present Just
now no shipping can be spared for he

As a result Of i recent conference ne
twecn DR. ,Iurls Levy. director oi the

Commissioner Kendall. it was decided
that the best way to get certain important
items Of health information to the mothers
Of New Jersey vas through the children
themselves.
The State bureau has sent out letters to
school principals and superintendent
suggesting that They request all children
whose households boast the possession oi a

tins dealing with infant care, the care of
children Of pre-school age Of similar

hoped by this means to get into the posses
sion Of large number of mothers, yaiu-
able information that will enable them 10
give more intelligent care To the babies of
the nation.

HELP THE HOSPITALS
FOR HELPLESS BABIES
Hospitals for White and Colored Children
Need Funds for Running Expenses
Baby Coaches Are Asked For.

Letters we're sent out before Christmas
asking for funds for the support Of the
Babies Hospital ut 207 " Washington street
known 20 the city for long time, and for
the new hospital for colored children at 700
French street. Somehow in the Christmas
rush some Of the appeals must have been
overlooked, and consequently the re-
sponsc has not been what was hoped for,
and does not come anywhere near the
needs Of the two institutions Therefore
another appeal is made, and = request IS
sent out for used baby coaches They are
very useful IN such places III fact they are
very necessary, and IT IS possible that
there are homes IN the city where they arc
stored away and arc not IN use
IN giving to the hospitals it can be re-
mcrnbercd that starting the children
right tends toward the health Of the city
and the nation, and that il is only one OF
the Iuany instances where helping others
is helping ourselves. The letter issued is as
follows:
Give to the helpless, homeless babies OF
Delaware, some of whom have been left
without mother or father by the epidemic
Of influenza. Some whose fathers have
gone to fight for the Stars and Stripes,
whose mothers must work. Some whose
mothers are dead and whose fathers can
not care fer them-many who are sick.
We have such urgent demands for
help we have now three houses for white
babies, and one We are about to open at
700 French street, for colored babies.
Think of IL! With colored population
Of over 10000 there is no day nursery or
hospital for colored babies in the State!
Good health is the greatest gift
human being can have. 1t is our constant
effort to turn these little waits Of humanity
into healthy children.
We have doubled our work VIII YOU
double your contribution and make real
Christmas gift to the babies OF Delaware?
