As our great human friend, Abra-
ham Lincoln once said. with malice
towards none. and wi charity
towards all" we take up this work of
improving the conditions in our com
munity by the good will and co-opera-
ton of all our citizens, young and old
for we need you all.
The war taught us many useful
things, if we will heel them, and with
reverence to those who laid down their
lives for it. we will.
Our country is only just beginning
TO the realization Of the value of our
schools and the advantages which may
be gained from them aside from the
simple task of learning reading, writ
ing and arithmetic
On the health and strength of our
children rests the strength of our ma
ton and the burden of the next gen
Grafton. Every child has an inherent
right to be well born and be in perfect
physical condition. Nearly every baby
at birth has normal constitution, for
there are very few inherited abnormal
conditions, but we are nearly' totally
dependent on the people with whom we
spend our childhood for those inherent
rights
The yigor and stability of the com
mon wealth demand the most careful
nurture Of children. When the care
which originally is the function of the
parent, is neglected for whatsoever
cause, the state in loco parentus must
exert its right to protect its wards
against the havOcS which are wrought
in the neglect Of their physical cOndi-
tons.
Health is an indispensable compile
ment to wise and happy state, but we
have before us our states prison, re-
fOrmatOries, homes for the feeble
minded, insane asylums, homes for the
blind aims houses, and sanitoria,
which must be supported by our taxes,
and all of which stand as monuments
to our follies and disobedience to the
laws of nature.

Farm forestry, properly practiced sup

the owner to market surplus timber

men and team in winter, makes waste

land pays, says the bulletin. The time
and money saved by having firewood,
fence posts, and material for repair
and construction conveniently at hand,
and the protection afforded the crops,
farm buildings, and stock are worth
considerably more than the slight
trouble and expense of raising and
caring for the trees.
Need Not Occupy Productive Land.
Farm woodland need not occupy
land that will grow other crops, II is
pointed out. On the contrary, the
trees should be located on ground too
poor to cultivate. A little care given
In the winter or at other times when
the farm work is slack will make such
land produce valuable timber. If fully
stocked with trees and well cared for,
an acre of hardwoods should grow
from one-half to one cord of wood
yearly, while pine should produce
from one to two cords.
The prime essential for success in
farm forestry, the bulletin states, is
adequate protection against fires. For
est fires kill the little trees outright
and weaken full-grown ones, so that
they may become diseased or infested
with insects 1t also destroys the

POOLING WOOL CLIP
IN COLLECTIVE SALE
Buyers in Large Number Are
Thereby Attracted.
Makes II Possible for Growers 20 Re-
ceive Payment for Full Value Of

The advantage Of wool pooling and
cooperative selling may well be ont
lined as permitting the growers TO sell
their wool collectively In a large vol
ume, thus attracting large number
OF buyers and making possible the pay
ment OF tie full value OF the wool. The
larger buyers are not attracted by in
dividual clips unless they are OF con-
siderable magnitude such as some of
those produced by the larger raachers
In the West. Nor Is the local buyer
able to pay the full price for woods
which must be purchased a few
feeces at time and carried at his
personal expense and risk until suffi-
cient volume has been accumulated to
permit its shipment to some central
wool market.
Volume handling such as Is possible
where the entire clip of the communi-
ty is sold collectively reduces the cost
per pound of buying and handling and
will permit the purchaser, whether a
local wool merchant or some outside
buyer, to pay higher price per pound
than is possible where II is necessary
to purchase the wool in small lots.
