 principal products on the market places
 as well as one of the best sellers Ex-
 tra fancy tomatoes continue to be scarce
 but the ordinary stock continues to be quite plentiful. Higher prices prevail on this product as well as on lima beans. corn and cabbage. Lima bean season is now practically over, and the supplies on. the markets are very small. This has had tendency to make the prices higher. There is a sufficient amount of peaches now to meet all demands an1 housewives desiring the better quality to preserve should procure them at once. 2.

EDUCATION IN NEW HAMPSHIRE

The Sociology class at Keene Normal
School in preparation for American Educa-
ton Week have made study of educa-
tional conditions in New Hampshire and
as their contribution to the work of the
week we quote the following extracts:
''The annual economic loss from
preventable disease and death in the work.
ing population of the IT, S. is one billion
| eight hundred million dollars" The Com
mittee on Elimination of Waste in In
dustry of the Federated American Engi-
neering Societies, appointed by Herbert
Hoover, reports that, "there is expert
mental basis for the statement that this
loss could be materially reduced and leave
balance over and above the cost of pre-
vention of over 81 900, 100000 a year."
This means that, if you could teach people
to take care of their health, you would
save almost as much as the entire amount
paid out in this country for public school
education.
Does this apply to New Hampshire?
1t does. New Hampshire is sick! When
men were examined for military service
in 1917-'18 more than a quarter of the
young men of the U. S. were disqualified
because of physical unftness. Cone
fourth of the men under 80 physi-
cally incompetent" But in New
Hampshire more than third, 36.43
per cent, we're disqualified Is it not fair
to infer that New Hampshire loses her
full share of that 81 100000 1000? Only
10 states in the country had worse re-
cord than the state of whose manhood
Hovey sang
with the granite of New Hampshire,
In their muscles and their bones"
Can we afford not to afford whatever
it may cost to prevent such economic losses
say nothing of the suffering and the I'M
happiness which sickness brings with it?
wonder if you know that, "The coun-
try is losing 5,OO0,000a year through
illiteracy This estimate is no doubt
under rather than over the real loss. The
Federal Government and the States spend
millions of dollars in trying to give in
formation to the people in rural districts
about farming and home making Yet
8, 100000, or ID per cent of our country
folk cannot read or write word. They
cannot read bulletin on agriculture,
farm paper, a newspaper, the Constitution
of the United States, or their Bibles, nor
can they keep personal or business ac-
counts" (Franklin K. Lane, when Secre-
tary of INTERIOR. The Federal Census
classified as illiterates only those who
confess that they are illiterate, persons
who have never had even the slightest
amount of schooling; the army draft board
classed as illiterate those who lack the
ability to read and understand newspapers
and to write letters, using the English
language.
New Hampshire cast 159,092 votes for
president in 1920. The number of self
confessed absolute illiterate people, over
81 years old, in this state, according to the
census of 1920, was 1921, about one in
ten But, if you accept the army draft
standards, you find, 69,975 illiterates.
That is to say, there were enough men of
voting age who could not read the news
papers or write letter to almost equal
the number of voters who could read the
newspapers.
