ERADICATING TUBERCULOSIS

In answer to inquiries the State Board
Of Agriculture makes the following
statement relatives to the tuberculosis
eradication work.:
First, the appropriation made by the
Legislature is still available and the
work is going on in all three countries.
All the reacting animals must be
slaughtered. Whatever is received for
the carcasses and hides belongs to the
owner of the cattle and the owner is
cautioned not to sell mis- animals at too
small a price. If sold to a butcher
there should, ordinarily, be competition
and wherever carload can be assem-
bled, especially in New Castle County,
they may be shipped to an abbatoir
with the approval of the United States
Inspector in Charge, and killed under
Federal inspection.
All carcasses that pass this inspection
will be sold for food. Those that dc
not pass will be condemned and used
for fertilizers or meat scrap.
After deducting the amount received
for the animals from the appraisal the
United States will pay the owner one
third of this difference up to twenty
five dollars per head, and the State will
paw one-half of this difference. In the
case of purebred animals the Govern
| ment will pay up to fifty dollars and
the State up to one hundred and fifty.
Any other information will be cheer:
fully furnished by the State Board OF
| Agriculture from the office at Dover.

Ban on School Dances

Wilmington is in the throes OF a con-
troversy over the recent order of Super
intendent Clifford J. Scott doing away
with the dances of children in the pub
lie schools. Mr.. Scott said he had
stopped the dances to investigate
whether they were immoral or not,
although, he said, he had had no COM
plants, but had taken action because
he had ''heard" there was opposition.
Oscar C. Draper, member of the
Board of Education, recently said that
those who had complained of the dances
were fanatics. The Methodist
Preachers Association, in resolution,
severely censured Mr.. Draper and
warned him to "well weigh his words
as a public official" and new C. Walter
Kadel, instructor of calesthenics in the
schools and physical director of the Y.
M. C. A., comes forth with the an.
nouncement that the dances are harm.

and School Association, and with the
full approval of the school commits

ed to anyone to prove there was any
improper conduct during the evening.
The School Bake was most successful
and nearly $25 cleared. Besides home
made cakes, pies, biscuits, etc., ice
cream was sold. Much merriment was
created by selling shadows, and the
Home and School Association wish to
thank each and every member and
