Freshman class has been in Miller
ton, n Y. this week to take the New
York regents examinations.

two tardy marks for the entire year,

by train Monday morning.

THOSE DOGS

From time to time two questions
relating to farming are discussed
with more OF less enthusiasm. One
is the dog question and the other
sheep raising. When the one is
thought of the other must necessar-
lily be considered.
According to farmers in this vi
entity the dogs have become tired of
chasing and killing sheep, or else
there are none to be killed, and they
have taken to chasing young cows
and geese. In Ashley Falls we are
told that several yearlings were
killed in this manner, while in Wea-
togue several geese met the same
fate.
If this condition exists in other
parts of the state, it seems the leg
stature wasted lot of time on the
feline question which should have
been devoted to enacting laws to
control such CANNES.

DAMP HOUSES CAUSE
OF MANY TROUBLES
Leaky Roofs or Other Such Con-
ditions May Be at Fault.
Henhouse Must Be Made Tight Before
Its Use VIII Be Entirely Salts
factory-Low Floors Should
Be Avoided.

Dampness in the house Is q com.
mon cause of trouble in the farm
flock. Leaky roofs or walls, low floors,
poor location and other such condi-
tons may be at fault. Unless these
are corrected colds, roup or rheuma-
tism may follow.
Every poultry house must be made
tight before it's use will be entirely
satisfactory. With the many excel.
lent brands of prepared roofing that
are now on the market and which sell
at reasonable prices, there is really
no excuse for leaky roofs or walls.
Single walls will get somewhat
frosty in cold weather unless the win
dows are kept open at the top or mus
lin screens are used over part of them
for ventilation. When the frost con-
denses into water and runs down the
sides of the house dampness and dis.
ease follow. To avoid this every
bright, sunshiny day we throw the
doors of our houses wide open and
and airing.
Floors that are lower than tho nat
ural surroundings of the house are
sure to become damp and soggy, be-
cause water or melting snow will run
In. A good board or cement floor is
the best solution in such cases, but
the trouble can be stopped by the
cheaper plan of filling inside the house
with sand or gravel until the floor is
foot or more higher than the out
side ground level.

PRACTICAL INSTRUCTION

In another column of this paper
will be found an essay by student
in the High School regarding the
need of domestic science in the
school. 1t is a suggestion that is
practical and one which should be
carefully considered by the school
committee and town officials if they
wish to keep pace with the progress
the pupils are making.
Our reason for taking this matter
up here is because of the fact that
many realize the great need # Civ
ing our boys and young men physi-
cal instruction and are planning &C
eordingly. But little is heard of
helping the girls or young ladies.
It is a well known fact that if bet
Ser men and better citizens are de-
sired and if the boys of today are to
be equipped, mentally and physically,
TO fight life's battles with intelligence,
instruction cannot start too early.
This same instruction will apply in
part to the girls. But if it is neces-
sary to give the boys instruction that
they may be better fitted to apply
themselves to their chosen vocation
IN later years, it is equally as impor-
tant that the girls be taught to make
the home place where their fathers,
brothers or husbands will be content
and happy and to relieve their moth
ers of some of their burdens.
Latin, algebra and perhaps some
gther studies, are used but little or
not at all by many girls after leav-
ing school. IL suitable equipment
was placed in the school for do
ahestic science course and choice
Permitted by the pupils, the girls who
wish to pursue business career and
the ones who wish to remain at home
could both be satisfied. More than

trough the correct preparation

The bait of the Tuna is the lovely
flying fish, which makes a rapid and
graceful flight over the water from
so to 1000 it., looking quite like a
great blue dragon fly. One clever old
fisherman invented an ingenious aid
to his tuna fishing. He observed that
the tuna take the bait as it flies out
of the water to escape-so he con-
ceived the idea of fastening a small
square paper kite by line and swivel
TO his fish line and as the kite scared
