Dairy Tour Proves ,
Very Successful
Newark and Vicinity the Cen
ter Point of Interest
Winterthur Farm
Visited

If you happened along Main street
about noon on Thursday, you prob
ably thought that some scond-hand
automobile dealer had made a buy |
of a bunch of motor cars and was
driving them to Philadelphia or some
other northern city. But this was not
the case and the long line of machines
that were parked along the street
were those used in the automobile
dairy tour, which was given under
the auspices of the New Caste
County Farm Bureau.
This affair was to have been held
on February 2 but was postpO1eI
until last week and to say that 1t was
a success would be putting 1t mildly.
The following committee: W. W.
Buckingham and r. O. Bausman, of
Newark, and H. C. Milliken, of Por-
ter. was in charge and handled things
in an admirable fashion, there not
being a hitch. Several of the men
who were in the party were asked
how the tour was turning out and
they all answered "Great" and those
asked were not the men in charge.
Farmers of New Castle County met
the down-S State farmers at Middle
town about $50 o'clock and about 25
automobiles were used to convey the
visitors. The first farm visited was
that of j. D. Reynolds, of Middle
town. Here high grade of Holsteins
are raised and the place was thor
oughly inspected. The next stop
made was at the farm of DR.. Walter
Cam, of Glasgow. DR.. Cam has a
herd of Holstein-F Friesian cattle. Fol
lowing this stop the party made its
way to the farm of j. |. Dayett, at
Cooch, who is a breeder of Holstein.
Friesian cattle. The Blue Hen Farms
Of Newark, were next visited and here
a herd Of Guernsey cattle and Ham
shire hogs were inspected. Lunch
was served at the Blue Hen Tea
Shop here and then he tourists Wis
tied the Breidablik Farm, breeder O
Guernsey cattle, on Lancaster Pike
and the last place to be visited wa
Winterthur Farms, near Wilmington
where some of the finest Holstein
Friesian cattle of the world ar
housed.
1t can be seen that after this pro
gram was carried out some of tn
finest cattle raising farms in thi
section of the country had been Wis
tied.
At the various farms the following
men made brief addresses: Prof.
A. Baker, of the University of Della
ware; County Agent M. c. Vaughn
of Georgetown; County Agent R. T
Wilson, of Dover; J. l. Dayett, Q
Cooch; VIM. Reynolds, of Middletown
J. R. Danks, of Winterthur; H. K
Krebs, of Newport, and R o. Baus

Poultry Notes

The incubator is not only a neccs-
sity but an economy where early
chicks are wanted.
Do not breed from diseased birds
or those which have been diseased. A
strong chick is the offspring of
healthy parents.
Brooding and caring for chicks is
far more important than Matching. 10
chill the chicks is always fatal. 1t
often costs something to learn this.
One of the best animal foods, both
to induce egg production and promote
growth, is cut fresh bone.
Cold, damp land is no place for
poultry; that which dries soonest
after a rain is the best land on which
to raise fowls.
Outside of the breeding pens on the
farm no surplus males should be kept.
| Too many males to bother the laying
hens are a detriment; none are need
ed.
Fight lice, teeth and toe-nail, at this
season. We often think lice kill more
chicks than any other thing.
A wagon load of the fine gravel and
sharp sand thrown on the ground in
the poultry yard makes it more sani-
tary and helps provide grit.
1t is hard thing to do, but use the
hatchet freely on ailing fowls. Be
sure that the ailment is not a fault
of the caretaker.
A neighboring poultry man sowet
, large patch of ground in oats ant
wheat and left the fowls to dig it ou
for themselves after the seeds sprout
ed. The hens were actively scratchin,
all day long. 1t was a good plan, an
we recommended it.
Scaly legs are caused by a minut
parasite digging away under tn
scales of the fowls legs. Ably cal
bolated vasoline once a week unit
cured.
Make the nest boxes of ample siz
but not too deep. The hens, if lare
=. in size, will break the eggs in gettin
into the nest if it be too deep.
1t will soon be the season for GAL
. worms, and all yards not sown
green feed should be spaded
ploughed up. If the worms are thic
scatter lime about the yard befo
Y plowing. A few drops of carbol
II acid in the drinking water of t
Y chicks will help to dislodge the worr
from their throats.-Farm Life.

HAS NEW METHOD
OF VACCINATION
Research Physician Reports
Discovery of Remedy for
Typhus and Cholera.

by Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
Copyright, 1922.
PARIS, Juno 15.-In the next num-
ber of the Pasteur Institute bulletin
DIR. Alexander Besredka, a research
physician, who is continuing the work
of the famous bacteriologist. Prof. Ell
L. Metchnikoff. in the laboratories of
Paris, will publish an article about a
new method of vaccination against
cholera and typhus, which. since It's
discovery short time ago, has been
attracting much attention in Europe.
Instead of puncturing the skin with
hypodermic needle. as heretofore,
DIR. Besredka recommends the abb
sorption of antitoxine pills through
the mouth.
New Method Simple One.
BY virtue of its simplicity the new
method Is expected to appeal to the
medical authorities in the United
States. particularly with reference to
immigration problems. The use of
vaccine pills. it is claimed. would do
away with half of the inconvenfences
of quarantine and would save money
and valuable time for the 1lis
Island officials. Already. as an eX-
ample of American foresight. the
Pasteur Institute shows an order
In Russia for $4,000 capsules to be
distributed among the cholera vic
Tins in the famine districts.
IT is much easier and pleasanter to
swallow u pill and have the dread thing
over with than TO be jabbed in the arm
and undergo variety of complica tions
afterward," said Prof. Besredia to me
today. Moreover. my method of vacci
nation can be administered to persons
afflicted with kidney disease as well as
to healthy specimens. The French gov
ernment has recognized it's merits by
authorizing it's Introduction into GER
tain branches of the army.
Approved by French Science.
French science has approved the
method. Although it is still in the Pc
riod of infancy, ] expect this practice to
spread more and more throughout Eu-
rope. Poland and Russia could use Il to
great advantage in fighting epidemics." !"
In the face of the enthusiastic recon-
! menda tiou from Prof. Besredia it may
be we'll to add that certain couserva tive
| exponents of French medicine still
withhold their approval of the new
method. They claim that while the ini-
| ;ial results have been excellent. no good
| scheme of control has yet been devised
| to watch over the effects of the pills on
; the pa atients. More statistics are need
| cd, they say.

Romance Started in WatervilIe

More than once Mr.. and Mrs. jim
ME Barry. who come to b. +. Keith,s
Theater in this city, this week, have
been designated the ideal couple of
the b. +. keith's Circuit. Their
romance began twenty years ago
in the city Of Waterville. 1t was a
typical romance of the stage.
Mrs. Barry. at that time Kitty
Richards. was appearing in i small
role in her first play, "Trilby." She
was a slim, black haired, brown eyed
girl of nineteen, pretty enough to eat,
as Jimmie will tell you in recalling
the story.
Trilby stranded" III Wateryile,
leaving the troupe to get home as
best it might: Kitty in fetching big
hat with a pink rose on it went down
town to wire home for money.
The Office was filled with a regular
crowd, who stared, winked, and made
audible remarks about the pretty ac-
tress. The only one who didn't join
in was a good looking youngster, OBJ
viously from the city. who moved
away from the post office window to
give Kitty his place, politely touched
his hat, and paid no further atten-
ton.
Kitty looked at him from under her
long lashes as she went out. Then
she hustled around to the only other
show in town. little repertoire COM
pany, and got a job as a soubrette.
That night she and the manager sat
down in front to look thing over.
There on the stage Kitty saw the
handsome boy of the telegraph office
episode. He was the juvenile. The
manager confidcd to her that he was
planning to let one of two young men
in the company go. Now, Miss
Richards" he said, "after watching
them work, which one would you adj
wise me to discharge, Mr.. Clark or
Mr.. Barry?"
"Oh. I wouldn't let Mr.. Barry CO."

room.
After recess counsel for the petit
TONERS announced that they would

evidence in support of the disbar-
ment petition. Coakley was recalled

cedure.

is charged with conspiring with GER
tain unnamed persons to accomplish
the commission of crime by Captain

Tribute Col. Boothby

Among the many Easter cards re-
ceived by Col. Frederic T.. Booth by
was one containing a tribute which
he highly appreciated and which
read as follows:
My Dear Colonel:
There is something / have wanted
to say to you for long time and no
better occasion than this Easter
period could be given me to say it.
We have not been unmindfuI of
the loss which the recent months
have brought and long ago I should
have sent words of sympathy, but |
wished for the quiet hour in which l
could Indulge in the reflection upon
what YOU and Mrs. Boothby have
been to the communities and the
State in which YOU have lived.
Many people have loyalty and the
desire to achieve something for their
commonwealth. but to few is 1t given
to touch the heart strings of so many
of Names famous visitors. to send
them away with, a kindly feeling and
a larger knowledge towards the hos
pitality of this rugged northcas. cor
ner State. H.
Such spirits as yours, hopeful,
courageous. generous, have not only
helped make the State, they have
graced it and humanized it. l am
glad that you bear the deserved and
somewhat unique honor of having
been mayor of two Of its leading Cit

be understood anywhere throughout
the country. The habit of disorder
iy speaking will cause disorderly
thinking. Good usage OF words
means to give them. their correct
meaning. 1t must be remembered
tina tslang in one generation may be-
come words in the next.
This calls to mind the prize contest
a few years ago in which ". o. Fuller
of Rockland won first prize for say
ing the most in the briefest number
of words. said Mr. Hall. The poem
was as follows: boy. gun, Joy, fun;
Gun bust; Boy dust"
Man is a creature Of habit and it is
easiest to say the same colloquilisms
that are used by ones neighbors. THE
head writer Of newspaper must pos
scss great ability to select words on
account of the limit of the column
width. The advertising writer also
has to possess the same qualifications
as head writer. in fact many of the
words used in connection with manu-
featured articles are products Of the
tuSSlouS HliIlO u SOllle advertisement
writer.
The average newspaper is made in
eight hours and contains about as
much material as one-half of an ordi-
nary book. Therefore it is not sur
prising that there are Typographical
errors. Some of the proofs come in so
late that there is no chance to read
them before the paper goes to press
because the trains do not wait.
The class of advertising in most
newspapers is good Some papers offer
to refund any money lost through
using their advertisements and most
papers will exclude any doubtful adj
vertisements.
All newspaper men are familiar with
the pest who wants slight errors adj
justed and every paper will reprint
correction If it is important at all.
The newspaper man is about the only
one in any profession who suffers for
any mistake. The physician can bury
his mistakes and the plumber can get
in an extra days work If he makes a
mistake.
Probably you will not come into pos
session of any great amount of worldly
goods if you follow the newspaper pro-
fession, but it is a vocation that never
becomes tedious and is always inter-
esting. There are thSee qualifications
that are ecessary-namely, clarity,
accuracy and truth.
