WEIGHING A PIG.

We never needed any Of them
new-fangled scales in .Ireland,' said
OEara. There's an aisy way to weigh
a pig without scales. You get plank
and put it across a stool. Then you
get big stone on the other end, and
shift the plank until they balance.
Then you guess the weight Of the
stone and you have the weight of the
pig"

RURAL CHILDREN BELOW
NORMAL IN SPOKANE COUNTY

Rural people of Spokane county,
Washington, have become interested
in 1.-The problem Of malnutrition. &C
cording TO- the county home demon
|rtration agent. At booth conduct
ed by the Farm Bureau women at
the Interstate Fair 1t was found tina.
70.5 per cent of the rural children
weighed and measured, were below
the normal weight for their height
and age. Forty per cent were Z per
cent or more underweight, which Is
considered condition of malnutri-
ton. This percentage of under
weight is much the same as has been
found in other parts Of the United
States.
The Farm Bureau women Of Tyler,
Under their project leader, assisted
by the home demonstration agent,
started the movement to correct this
condition, by having all of the school
children weighed and measured as to
height. Out of the 81 weighed, IS,
or practically 50 per cent were of
varying degrees of underweight, and
20 or 1872 per cent were seven per
cent upder weight. The porents or
ganized nutrition class to study
child feeding and hygiene 1T meets
monthly, at which time the children
are weighed. AS no child is proud
of being unddr weight, the children
are taking great interest in bringing
themselves up to the required mark.
Rivalry is very keen between the
different rooms of the school, to see
which can make the best record. The
primary room made the best gain
during October, while the interme-
date grades took the record for No
vember.
On December 4, seven weeks afte..
the first weighing, it was found that
10 underweight children had brought
their weight up to normal, and 10
have been brought out Of the class
that were Z per cent or more under
weight. Thirty-two underweight
