5OOO0,0O0, possess great natural resources and
constitute of the richest of all colonial posses
sons The principal products include tin, coal, pc
troleum and large variety of agricultural COM

Under the guidance of their skilled
teachers and with the advice and
supervision of DR.. Joseph A. Murphy,
chief medical inspector of the public
schools. the open-air classes. through
variety of school projects, such as
these, and with the provision for
extra feeding and pure-air breath
ing, are able to show excellent re-
suits as TO both physical and mental
progress of the children therein dealt
with. These two open-window classes
were established ten years ago at the
instance of the Washington Tuher-
culosis Association. with especial re-
gard to preventive work among
children found on examination to be
inclined toward tubercular weakness.
The association has continued to give
practical cooperation by providing
milk lunches for these classes and by
conducting nutrition clinics for them.
Thus. the ounce of prevention. That
IS the idea back of the work being
done and the demonstration being
made in these classes, which are III
line with similar educational policy
in nearly all of the larger cities OF
the country. The truth is. that since
the fresh-air idea was first adopted
classes of this character have multi
piled in many cities. BY 1921 there
were 113 such open-air classes in New
York city. and in his report to the
health authorities that year DR.. Leo

do better work and with less fatigue.
DIR. Marcus further says that the ex-
pertinent in that city has proved the
value of open-air classes for normal,
average children"
DR.. Murphy has reached similar con-
clusions and in an official report he
has strongly recommended that one
of these fresh-air classes be estab-
lished in every school division. why
has not this been done? Presumably
because other school needs have
seemed more pressing. but there is
reason to believe that the school au-
thoritieS are in keen sympathy with
the idea of these classes. There has.
however, never been any appropria-
ton by Congress to cover the ex-
extra lunches for these classes. as
was done for the Harrison and
Hamilton antituberculoss schools.
Hence, in order to meet this need the
tuberculosis Association has for sew
eral years been spending from $500
to $1,000 for the benefit of the Blake
and Stevens fresh-air classes.
Free Lunch Plans.
The time may not be far away when
the matter of free lunches in these
classes will be placed on the same
basis as those served to the pupils
of normal health, custom which
has become very general in recent
months under the stimulation of the
nutrition clinical work and the test
ing of many more school children as
to weight and other physical co21.-
tionS. If this question of tse school
lunches could be placed thus on the
same basis for all one of the objec-
tions to the extension of the fresh
air classes would be removed. BY
the sale of tickets to the children
able to pay for their lunches and by
the giving of tickets to those not
able to pay the cost of the lunches
would be very much reduced. and by
proper distribution of the tickets
none would need to know which were
free and which were paid for.
I, should be clearly understood that
the open-window classes are not in
tended for tuberculous children and
that therefore there is no danger
from infection in connection with
their establishment. They are de-
signed especially for children found
to be underweight and otherwise
physically subnormal, and who neeN

ment with plenty of oxygen, rest and

average. The Tuberculosis Associa-
tion is ardently in favor of these
open-air schools and hopes to see the
system extended to other school divi-
sions. There can be little doubt that
the existence of the Blake and
Stevens open-window classes has
already had great influence upon
the ventilation problem of the entire
school system and also that their
influence has been felt in hundreds OF
homes as well.

WHY GRADE POTATOES

POTATOES at that) sold at $1.05 per
hundfsd pounds, In other words, the
man $ho shipped 10000 pounds of field
run potatoes got $1o5.00 for them. The
man who took out and fed to his hogs
1000. pounds and = shipped only s9 cog
pounds, got $12S.00 for his 5000
pounds and he had 1000 pounds of
hog feed loft on his farm. " ,'...> -
These small and: defective potatoes
fed to:hogs are worth about one'quarter
as mueh as corn of equal weight. -Four
and one-half bushels Of potatoes, it is
said, will produce as much gain on E
hog assone bushel of corn. So the. man
who kept the little potatoes and the
defective ones at home got $4,000 more
money in cash for his 10000 pounds.
He paid freight on 1000 pounds: less!
and zhe had left the:equivalent of. a
bushels Of corn for hog feed. {. s
In times like these it pays and pays
big to grade the potatoes and sort them
carefully.
