CORN AT 80 GENTS PER BUsHEL
Land S450 per Acre-Where Does the
Farmer Get Oh At


w. +. Garrett, Shenandoah, Iowa,
November "a. 1921.
Editor Censor:-I thought a few
lines might be of interest to some of
my friends around Viroqua | am
at Shenandoah, Iowa. This is fine
place, about 1000 inhabitants, with
two railroads-the Wabash and C. B.
& Q-and many fine residences. Four
good banks, all doing a good business.
The prices on farm products and other
things are about the same as in Viro-
qua. There is a fine farming country
around here. Land has sold here as
high as $3.50 per acre. You know that
no farmer can pay that and make any
thing these times. Many Of them
still have corn they was offered $3.50
per bushel for. Corn is selling for
80 cents per bushel here now.
The secretary of the Page County
Agricultural Society took me over
to show me their fair ground yester-
day, but say, Brother Frank Minshall,
they have nothing on Old Vernon
county yet in buildings or grounds.
They pay about the same premiums
we pay. They charge $500 for sea-
son tickets, $1.00 for day tickets. He
said they lost money this year
The Southwestern Iowa Poultry
Show is on here this week and say
there are chickens by the thousands.
My brother is chief of police here
and they offered me job on the force
but | am not looking for a job at
present.
Win leave Omaha Sunday night for
California. and if my train is on time
will be due in San Francisco Wednes-
day morning. When | get there will
write you again.

RESULT OF Chest CLINIC
NINE CASES OF TUBERCULOSIS
ARE DISCOVERED
I01 Persons Examined at the Free
Chest Clinic In Viroqua Friday
and Saturday, Nov. 1S and 10

Nine cases of tuberculosis was found
among the 101 patients examined at
the Free Chest Clinic held at Viroqua
last week by the Wisconsin Anti u-
bereulosis Association under the aus
pices of the Red Cross. The percent
age Of tuberculosis cases examined
was lower than is the rule at these
clinics, the general average through
out the state being about one case for
every five persons.
The value of the clinic is not confn-
ed to the discovery of tuberculosis al
though that is its primary object.
Other interesting findings are: 13
cases of heart trouble, % cases of dis
eased teeth, % cases of simple thy
roid, 10 of enlarged glands, under
weight, and a number of other con-
ditions.
The need of having decayed teeth
put IN good condition was emphasized
and it was pointed out that many SER
ious undermining diseases may devel-
op from the teeth. Goitre patients
were advised to go to their physicians
for treatment, and in the case of chill
dren the value of preventative care
was urged and explained.
One little school girl, who came into
the clinic not suspecting she had any
trouble, was shocked to learn that her
heart was in a serious condition. The
doctor advised her that il she would
leave school and devote herself to get
ting well, for time, she would prob
ably completely recover, but neglect
ing to follow this advice might result
in serious consequences. An ex-ser-
vice man, who had cared for his broht-
err who died of tuberculosis. He was
advised as to the proper care and if
his condition does not improve, he vii
probably enter a sanatorium, as this
treatment is recommended as offering
the best chances for cure in the short
est tine.
Eve were very much pleased at the
splendid spirit shown in Viroqua,"
said Miss Durbin, organizer for the
Clinic, land wish to extend our hearty
appreciation to local workers. Among
those who were especially helpful was
DR.. Porter, Mrs. Frank Wise, Misses
Clara Glenn, Fay Smith, Yula Isley
and Alma Snyder. Viroqua people are
indebted 70 the Red Cross for giving
them this opportunity for free exam
nation. They may assure a return
visit by generous contribution to the
Red Cross which paid local expenses,
and to the sale of Christmas seals,
which finance all health work of the

citation"

CO. EDUCATIONAL NOTES

Not often, during the same year,
does two such important and farreach-
ing moves happen, as we are now able
to announce for the school children
of Vernon county.
The first is he county uniformity
of text books which was adopted by
the school board convention held in
October and other is the public health
nurse which was provided for by the
county board of supervisors early in
the present session. Immediately up
on the passage of the resolution and
appropriation, an application was wir-
ed to the State board of health at
Madison for a public nurse. This was
done to secure nurse as soon as pos
sible, as other county boards will be
in line for nurses, and the supply is
not equal to the demand.
Uniformity of textbooks is much to
be desired because it does away with
change of textbooks as pupils move
from one district to another. 1t
makes for a more equal opportunity
in instruction for the pupils in all of
the schools. 1t also makes it easier
to outline detailed course of study
for the rural schools as is nearly al
ways done for city schools. 1t makes
it easier for the teacher to know what
she is required to do and when, and
makes uniform diploma examinations
more fair for all of the applicants, as
they will all be taught from the same
books, and questions can be based
from the same books. We all know
that pupils taught from old out of
date textbooks do not stand a fair
chance with those using modern text
h h. x.rtax h. ars0
upon modern textbooks.
Only those who are working among
the school children know of the great
need of a public health nurse, but
nearly every person knows that there
are many cases among the growing
children where the knowledge of the
nurse will be helpful and far reaching
in giving the youths proper health
information and rules, and in suggest
ing to parents and guardians atten-
ton to slight defects, which if attend
ed to in time will remove a handicap
to the child's school progress, and
prevent these slight defects from be-
coming chronic or growing more COM
plicated as the child grows.
Every teacher knows of pupils whose
school work is poor although they
seem to try hard enough to get their
lessons. Often these pupils are handi-
capped by defective hearing, defective
eyesight, adenoids, or deceased ton
sils, all of which may be discovered by
the nurse. The discovery of these de-
fects together with suggestions as to-
what to do to correct or remove them
is one of the functions Of the public
health nurse
The Chinese doctor is paid while his
patient is well and his pay stops when
sickness occurs. Not a bad plan for
more enlightened people to adopt. The
employment of public health nurses
is a move in the direction of prevent
ing sickness by discovering causes,
suggesting preventative measures and
advocating health rules, primarily
among children, but incidentally among
all. The general public is awakening
to the wisdom of such an aid to public
health, realizing that IAN ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of cure"
Or "a stitch in time will save nine.'
