The Louvre Not So Much.

He was evidently an eX-soldier and
an art lover. The first you could tell
by the American Legion button he
wore, the second by the artistic touch
in his manner and theme of speech
Another youth was standing near
him on the steps of the city library.
He may or may not have sought art
as Emerson paints it for us.
"Didia see the Louvre when you
were in PARISH" asked the youth who
may or may not have cared for art.

MAKE PROFIT WITH ALFALFA
Growers Who Are Most Successful
O.. Make Practice of CuItivating
Once or Twice Yearly.

The men who are making prac-
tice Of growing alfalfa successfully
over long period of years are prac-
ticing cuItivating the crop at least
once or twice a year. The common
disk harrow is used to some extent
although the spring-toOth cultivator
usually gives better results. Some
people cultivate the alfalfa field ear
ly in the spring, hut the more COM
mon practice is to follow the second
and third cuttings. The main pur-
pose is to. keep the blue grass out
This is hest accomplished during the
dry portion of the summer. In test

MILK PLANT IN CITY
REQUIRES MUCH CARE
Efficiency Depends Largely on
Equipment Used.
Arrangement of Various Rooms and
Machinery Also portant-Spe-
ciaIists Point Out Ten Points
to Be Remembered.

The construction of city milk
plant requires careful study and plan
ming. The building represents a large
investment, and it is important, there
fore, that the plans be carefully laid.
The efficiency of the plant depends to
a large degree upon the type of equip
ment used and the arrangement of the
various rooms and machinery. 1t is
possible for well-arranged plant to
effect great economies in labor, while
a poorly planned plant may become
continual source Of expense because of
the extra labor required. These points,
according to specialists of the United
States department of agriculture,
should be borne in mind in locating a
milk plant:
l. Ease of access from as many
sides as possible.
2. Value of property.
3. Cost of getting the milk to the
plant.
4. Proximity to distribution center
5. Advertising possibilities.
W. CpIIol iuLlly lOI TeldI counter
cash trade.
7. Nearness to city water supply and
electric power
8. Avoidance of heavy traffic sur
roundings.
Q. Good drainage.
10. Pure air and clean surroundings.
Anyone contemplating building a
new plant will do well to visit various
up-to-date plants in different cities to
get the latest ideas on construction,
layout of rooms, and equipment If
it is impossible to visit other plants,
plans and specifications sometimes can
be obtained and ideas gained from
them. Also, he should write the
United States department of agricul-
ture, Washington, D.. c., for depart
ment Bulletin $40 on City Milk Plants
Construction and Arrangement.

turn the sod on account of dry wealth
er. the treatment can be given with
the disk harrow alone. We have been
able to thoroughly kilI' the grass with
either the disk or the combination of
pillow and disk treatment. Where
blowing ispossible, however, 1t is usu
ally cheaper to kill the grass with
pillow and disk alone, according to spe-
cialists of the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
If the disk alone is to be used it
should be set practically straight, well
weighted with bags of dirt, and the
field gone over three or four times.
The first two cuttings should be at
right angles and the other cuttings
diag0nally across. The sod in this way
is divided into small blocks. Then the
disk is set an an angle, when it will be
found that the first two or three inches
of the sod, which contain practically
all Of the quack-graSs roots, can be cut
loose from the soil below. The eX-
pOsure to the sun and the breaking
loose from the lower soil soon kill out
the quack grass. This ground should
be gone over at intervals of ten days
or two weeks throughout the remain
der of the season.
Plow Again in Spring
The following spring the infested
land, on which the grass has been
killed either by the disking method or
by the combination of blowing and
disking, should be plowed to a good
depth in order to bury the mass of
dead roots thoroughly. This will IA
ciltate the cultivation of the spring
crop. If the work has been carefully
done the quack grass will not show
up at all in the spring crop.
Both these methods have been thor
Oughly tested.

TO Our REID GROSS NURSES

Does anyone think Of the Red Cross
. Nurse?
Does anyone care for the one
Upon whose slender shoulders
The cares Of the soldiers come?
They have left their homes for the
sakes of us
And the boys of this fair land,
And for one appreciate
The girls with II willing hand.
They hurry up and down the ward,
In the dead of night,
Just TO tuck the blankets round you
And to see that you're all right;
And when your fever is raging,
And you're ready to pass In,
You will bring the nurse right by your
side,
To bring you back again.
It's surely not a pleasant task.
And 1t surew ould make me curse,
But what would we poor soldiers do
If 1t wasn't for the nursei
Now If Providence proves kind to me.
And live through this awful strife,
think I'll look for Red Cross Nurse
And settle down for life.

IMPORTANT HEALTH NOTE


santa re, n. NJ, March 20, 1920.
To County School superintendent:
Your attention is once more called
to the law requiring that all children
OF school age In your county must be
vaccinated against smallpox, and, also,
to the fact that the law places upon
you the responsibility Of its enforce
ment.
The subject is taken up at this time
in order that you may make prepare
lions for the opening OF school next
fall IL would be well to point out to
all parents Of school children that no
child will be permitted to enter for
the next school year until he has com
piled with the law. Children who have
had smallpox; who present evidence
Of SUCCESSFUL vaccination; those
who have had THREE unsuccessful
vaccinations with FRESH virus, and
those who are n. physically able TO
take a vaccination may be admitted
upon presentation of a certificate,
stating the facts, issued by a duly
licensed physician. All other children
must be yaccinated BEFORE BEING
ALLOWED TO ENTER SCHOOL. If
notification of parents is general at
this time, there win be no opportunity
for them to offer the excuse OF igno-
rance Of the requirements Of lack Of
time.
1t is also suggested that you make
provision in your budget for the vac
cination Of indlgents, as required by
law, in order that funds may be avail
able for the purpose at the beginning
Of the school year. This department
will be able to supply you with all the
vaccine needed at Sc per tube, deliver

furnish the virus to the health officer.
