TEACHER SHORTAGE PROBLEM
MUST BE SOLVED BY WOMEN

AS a remedy for the present scar
city Uf suhUUi t .;s;'s; -. editorial in
"The Woman of Today" recommends
that at least half of the members of
all school boards in the future be
women. These women should be,
preferably, former successful school
teachers, social workers and nurses
and the members of the board should
visit classes, talk with the teachers,
and observe conditions at first hand"
"A few business men on a school
board are very desirable the editor
ial continues. But a school board
composed entirely of business men is
very undesirable. They do not know
the children intimately enough and
usually occupy themselves with hold
ing the purse-strings and let the su-
perintendent reign as absolute mon
arch.
1T is up to the taxpayers and
school authorities to bring former
teachers back to the children by pro-
viding enough teachers to do efficient
work in a reasonable working day.

New Castle County. The owner had
on his place over $500 worth of hogs.
The hogs became sick, a veterinarian
was not consulted, the owner pur-
chasing from a druggist an extensive
ly advertised hog tonic. The hogs
continued to become sick and die. FL
nally the owner became convinced
the hog tonic was of no value in this
particular case and he called in his
local veterinarian. A diagnosis OF
cholera was made but at this time on
ly a few hogs remained alive and they
were too far advanced in the disease
to warrant vaccination. This $500 loss
could have been avoided to a great
extent by an early diagnosis and vac
cination treatment.

After getting report from your
local veterinarian, government expert
on hog cholera or your State College
that your hogs have cholera, employ
your local veterinarian, provided he
is a licensed veterinarian, to vacci-
nate your pigs at once.
Serum and virus is furnished free
by the state provided the owner en-
ploys an accredited veterinarian to
administer the treatment. Your local
veterinarian can arrange to obtain
the serum for you or he may have
sufficient quantity on hand to do the
work.
If an early diagnosis of cholera is
made and the hogs are yaccinatec
before many of them show signs oi
the disease so to so per cent may be
saved. If the infection is we'll ad-
vanced in the herd the losses will be
much greater. 1t is therefore advis.

Avoid Treatment Other Than Anti
Hog Cholera Serum and Yirus
There is no known drug or medicine
that will cure or prevent acute hog

A delightful way to spend vacation
Is camping in the forest reserves, where
camp sites have been established, often
on the shores Of charming lakes or fish :
ing streams. Here you may put up a
tent, or for a very small sum lease
ground from the government and put up
a permanent summer home.
For those who like ''vacationing"
under the shadow of snow capped noun
tains, one may choose from Mount
Hood, Rainier, Adams, the Olympics,
the Canadian Rockies, the Cascades or
the coast range. Here snowballing in
snow slopes, rock climbing, following
the trail with knapsack on ones back
are part of the days program.
At Lake Chelan, Wallowa, in the
lake region of British Columbia and a
hundred other places that might be men
toned. there is fine combination of
mountain and lake scenery. Swimming
and boating as we'll as fishing may be
added to the long list Of attractions.

great river gorge; its falls Of silver
