GREAT INTEREST
IN MEDICAL
INSPECTION
Danyille and Peacham
School Children Get Bene-
fit of Expert Clinic

Medical inspection of the school
children of the towns Of Danville and
Peacham was held recently by the
District Health officer, Dr.. Victor T.
Gengc Of st. Johnsbury.
The object Of Medical Inspection is
to call attention to physical defects
among school children which in many
instances may be otherwise unnoticed
OF unrecognized by the parents.
When a defect is found a notice is
sent to the parents stating the nature
of the defect and recommending that
the child be taken to the family ply
sician or dentist for treatment and
advice. The parent is under no OBJ
legation whatsoever to have the de-
,ect remcdcd if they do not so desire
but the Importance of keeping the
child in the best physical condition
possible cannot be overestimatcd.
Therefore every parent is earnestly
urged to have all the defects remcdied
in order that the child health may
be preserved.
The result of Medical inspection is
as follows:
317 children examined
1914 children with defects.
238 total number Of defects.
Defects divided as follows:
85 throat, 139 teeth, 8 vision, 2
hearing, 4 organic heart disease.
As result of this inspection a sur
gical clinic for the removal of ton
sis and adenoids was arranged for
and held at Danville, Dec, 7 under
the direction of the District Health
Officer and District Nurse. This elm
ic p, owed to be very successful mas
much as so many parents took ad-
vantage of this splendid opportunity
of having their children's threats
cared for DE- W G. Kicker of st.
JohnsbuIy was in attendance and sue
cesSfullv operated on 20 cases. A
moderate fee was charged for patient
who were able to pay-to all Others
the service was given free. Much
credit for the success of the clinic
is due to the excellent cooperation
rendered by the officers and members
of the local Red Cross, the local ply
churches and school authori-
ties.
As there have been several inouir-
les regarding another clinic from
parents who were unable to bring
at tbs time, it is hoped that
NAV be made for an
another to be held sometime in the
Spring.

WINTER WORK FOR FARMERS
Wood Cutting In Cool Weather Does
Not Interfere With Field Crop
Operations.

Farmers. as rule. have too much
to do at certain times Of the year and
not enough at others. Many farms are
Improbable because their owners nave
little or nothing planned for winter.
Wood cutting can be done at any time.
but cool weather favors the rate of
production, and In the winter the work
does not conflict with that on regular
field crops. II cut In winter logs are not
subject to rapid drying. nor to deep
checking at the ends of the logs. which
often occurs In summer-cut logs and
appreciably reduces their sale value.
Because Of injury from the southern
pine bark beetle In the hot season. II
is practically necessary TO cut pine In
the fall and winter months. Damage
and loss In summer often come from
woodworking fungi, including the
"bluing" and other staining of wood.
For these reasons good many farm.
ers turn probably to logging and saw.
milling for few fall or winter months
each year. Nearly every kind OF wood
product can be satisfactorily handled
In winter. according TO the forest ser

CARRIED THE sAvIoR's CROSS
Through Accidental Meeting On

There Is more or less general be-
lief that Simon, who carried the cross
for Jesus, was q negro. While there is
no direct evidence ON this point. he.
was probably a white man and a Jew.

came, was In northern Africa, but IL
was a Greek city and the Jews were

thing about Simon's carrying the cross
on which Jesus was to be crucifed
was that he had nothing to do with the
proceedings before Pontius Plate. aXd
was forced into the service Of carrying
the cross. Matthew. after describing
the trial and the surrender OF Jesus to

"And as they led Him away they laid

out Of the counrry. and on him they
laid the cross, that he might bear IL

that the crowd met Simon by chance

GIVE SITTING HENS
SPECIAL ATTENTION
Thoroughly Dust Fowl With

Not Be Disturbed--Water and
Feed Are Necessary.

As the time approaches 10, the hen

taken to look into the nest. It will be
seen that there are a few soft downy
feathers being left there by the hen
also the hen stays longer on the nest
when laying Mt this time, and on being
approached will quite likely remain on
the nest making clucking noise,
runilng her feathers and pecking at
the intruder. When II Is noted that a
hen sits on the nest from two to three
nights In succession and that most OF
the feathers are gone from her
breast, which should feel hot to the
hand, she Is ready to be transferred
to nest which has been prepared for
her beforehand, according to poul-
try specialists Of the United States
department of agriculture. The nor
NAL temperature of hen Is from 1O8
to 107 degrees r., which varies slightly
during incubation.
Dust the hen thoroughly with insect
powder, and in applying the powder
hold the hen by the feet. the head
down. working the powder well into
the feathers. giving special attention
to regions around the vent and under
the wings. The powder should also
be sprlnkled III the nest.
The nest should be I'm some quiet,
out-oftbe-way place, where the hen
will not be disturbed. Move her from
the regular laying nest at night and
handle her carefully In doing 30. Put
a china egg or two In the nest where
she Is to sit and place board over
the opening so that she canot get of.
Toward the evening Of the second day
quietly go in where she is sitting.
leave some feed and water. remove the
board from the front or top OF the nest,
and let the hen come of when she
Is ready. Should she return TO the
nest after feeding, remove the china
egg or eggs and put under those that
are to be incubated. II the nests are
slightly darkened the hens are less
likely to become restless. At Matching
time they should be confined and not
be disturbed until the hatch Is COM
pleted, unless they become restless,
when II may be best to remove the
chicks that are Matched first. In cool
weather 1t Is best not to put more
than ten eggs under hen. while later
In the spring one can put twelve or
fifteen. according to the size of the hen.

The old dictum OF making two blades

farming In an experiment conducted
by specialists OF the United st, ties de.
partment OF agriculture. A field of
30 acres has been used exclusively dur
ing the past four seasons. for produc-
Ing forage crops to be harvested by
sheep. The field Is divided into ten
plnts, and during the recent season
every portion grew nj least two DIFF
ferent crops, while on some OF the
unit areas three crops were grown
and Rrazed.
Oats and Peas Follow Wheat.
Fall.sown wheat provided the enrli-
est available pasturage IN the spring,
md after this was exhausted the
sheep were shifted to an early spring
sowing of oats and peas. Thence they
moved to another tract OF oats and
peas, which they grazed luxuriantly
and well until the supply OF green
stuff was curtaIled. when they were
transferred to alfalfa and rape pas.
turage. This medley mixture Of green
feed furnished good grazing until
about the middle Of July, when the soy
beans were available for pasture pur-
poses.
As consequence Of the intensive
utilization Of pasture crops for nut
ton and wool production. this field OF
30 acres furnished sufficient feed for
20 ewes and 90 lambs for 20Oday
period. The best grazing resulted
from patch Of three acres OF soy
beans. which carried 90 sheep for 30
Gays with satisfactory results. The
system OF management followed was
