I was somewhat surprised, when
first came to Delaware County, to
learn that your splendid fair, while
offering thousands of dollars in pre-
miums for excellency of work done in
stock raising and general farm pro-
duction, offered not dollar of
premium money in encouragement
of superior work in school. found
it possible to interest the fair board
and the teachers to the extent that
we have had, during the past three
years, splendid school exhibits from
the rural as we'll as the town school
systems. Last year over $3.50 was paid
in prizes to Delaware County school
children and this year over $500 in
premium money is offered. That will
greatly stimulate the activities of the
pupils and teachers along these lines.
Junior Club work has come to be
recognized as an integral part Of rural
education. 1t should be the highest aim
of rural teachers to enlist the in
terests and the sympathies Of the
child in the great work on the farm.
The leaders in educational work have
recognized the necessity Of club work
to the extent that thousands Of dol
lars are appropriated and many men
and women enlisted in the service
of this work. The only criticism that
I would offer on our Junior clubs,
as I have observed them, is this, that
the entrance requirements are fire.

very limited number of pupils can
take advantage Of the opportunities
which the work offers. I have tried
to overcome this handicap, in the
methods used, in the organization of
the Delaware County Poultry Club.

the subject of poultry special study
and who came out as winners Of the
examination contest, we furnished
free of charge a setting of good pure
bred poultry eggs. Under the i'm

and the general supervision of the
county superintendent and county
agent, this club project will be carried
on Throughout this summer The boys
and girls hatch the chickens, raise
them and at their own option exhibit
them at the Delaware County Fair.
Many cash prizes, premiums and
medals will be offered for superiority

WHAT THE MICROSCOPE FINDS
IN FLOUR.

James Scott, the microscopic. in
an article in Milling of Liverpool.
England, advocates the use of the
microscope in milling.
Without any inference that flour
is customarily unclean, he supports
his advocacy of the microscope with
some startling disclosures of the COM
mon content of flour as commercially
sold.
Among the most common of foreign
substance is perhaps jute fibre dust,
detached from jute sacks. 1t is iden--
titled by means of the parallel mark
ings. There is black fungus that
grows on damp sacks. The organs
and heads of this mould resembles
SCOT to such an extent that it re-
quires microscope to show its
origin.
While we are disposed to spare
the reader listing of some of the
other things Mr.. Scott finds in bag
of -four, it is sufficient to say that
we hope with Mr. Scott that millers
generally buy microscope-an
use it.
| And while we are. on the subject,
we learn with shock that there
is machine made for busy bakers
and economical ones, apparently
to shake old, secondhand -four bags
shake 'em like terrier does a
ratio recover what sticks in the
bottom.
| Ugh!
We never had to shake our. old
flour barrel And the last ounce in
the barrel was just as good for angel
food as the first.
