 Girl Heads Glass Of Those Taken | From Factories
 FIVE BOYS HAVE ABILITY
Special Industrial Committee Has
 Been Searching Shops of New England, Seeking Those to Be Fa-
 vored With Greater Opportunity.

Boston, Sept. 27.--A search for youthful genius in the factories of New England, with the idea of lift ing from humdrum tasks to wider opportunities those who might oth- erwise remain hidden. has developed young woman of exceptional promises, five boys of marked abil- ity and the belief that there may be other gifted children found at bench, frame or spindle. This was the report today by a committee of the associated industries, which has been engaged in the work for IS months, assisted by Harvard edu- cators.
 Has Highest Average.
 The young woman, 23 years old, brighter than any of the boys who passed examinations that placed them in the class with the highest five per cent out of 100000 cases in army testing, is a product of the central west, where she attended high school, explaining that she had combined substitute work in the employment department of a large corporation with her regular duties ass chool teacher, the committee said it was not quite exact to say she might be called a gift child in industry" but added that in the course of it's investigation I had found signs that there may be such"
 Various Occupations.
 The young woman is not named. The committee says of her that she spent two years in college. had been employed as travel relief agent of the Michigan Central srailroad. had acted as business manager for a taxi company and had served as laboratory technicfan and a physical educational director for a girls training school in Texas" it was stated that she had an unquench- able ambition to go through a med ical school so as to fit herself for the practice of medicine, with espe- cial reference to children's diseases and to industrial medicine work" Lack of financial support prevented but it was indicated that this would be forthcoming as result of tfe survey.
 Mrs. J. E. Worcester of this city, who originated the idea, conducted a survey in five factories, out of which she obtained 20 boys and one girl of unusual promise. Harvard professors went to the factories and examined the youngsters of possible genius, but under the stiff tests that they imposed in order to find only the extremely exceptional child" reduced the 21 to six. These six. live boys and the young woman, went to Harvard for further psycho- logical and intelligence tests, with the result that although the college specialists said that all rated class A in the tests, the girl scoring high est in personality and intelligence, none of the boys possessed the very high qualities sought. But the girl did quality.
 UT the young woman, the commit tee said: She showed boise, out look, fine physique, excellent prac- tical Judgment and great ambition" |"

Why Does Sour Skimmilk
Encourage Hens to Law?

A year ago the Idaho College of Ag-
riculture. through the department of
poultry husbandry, started an expert
ment to determine the cause of the
high production secured from laying
hens that were given an abundance
of sour skim milk. A study Of the
analysis of sour skim milk showed 1t
to contain 90.77 per cent water, o.10
per cent fat, 3.03 per cent milk sugar
(lactose), 05 per cent Tactic acid.
3.5 per cent protein and 0.79 per cent
milk ash or salts. 1t was assumed
that water alone was not the stimu-
lating factor The fat content seemed
too low, and the distribution of car
bohydrates did not point to milk su-
gar as possible source Of the prob
lem. A comparison was made Of ra-
lions containing tactic acid, milk salts,
protein--free sour skim milk and sour
skim milk. The results showed con-
.ciusively that Tactic acid in the same
solution as in sour skim milk Is value
less for egg production. Besides both
milk salts and ash entirely failed to
stimulate increased egg production.
The results all seem to indicate that It
10 the valuable part OF sour skim milk.
For two years. the protein-free sour
skim milk has not given as satisfac Glory
production as the sour skim milk. A
further study is being made into this
interesting problem Pens are now
being compared In which rations con-
tanning milk curd milk case. protein
milk are given.

MY THANKSGIVING
By Mrs. Winnie Exline

BY Mrs. Winnie EXllne
There are so many things I'd like
To have Thanksgiving day.
There's lots and lots of things that's
good;
| know has been stored away.
Out on the farm there's pumpkines
In the cellar piled up high,
| wonder if they know that folks
Like me eat pumpkins pie.
There jam and jellies on the shelf.
And cookies, pies and cake.
Thanksgiving, they will bring them
out
And pass around the plate.
But will not be there you see,
And just wonder why;
They couldn't send lot to me.
Of some good things; oh my!
I'd like piece of Turkey too,
And apple big as this.
Just sample of some things;
I'm sure they wouldn't miss.
I'd like to go to grandma's
But l can't do that you see:
I'll stay at home and watch and wait
For these things to come to me.

RECENT METHOD OF
FEEDING CHICKENS

A new system for feeding chicks has
been substituted by the University Of
New Hampshire for that previously
recommended by that institution.
When the chicks are taken from the
incubator and placed under the brood
er stove, they should be given drink
of a mixture of sour milk or buttermilk
in which have been beaten up about
three eggs yolks per quart of milk.
This mixture should be accessible for
the first "a hours they are under the
brooder stove. For the next seven
days they should be fed five times
day with sufficient amount of chick
feed--which may be mixture of
equal parts of fine cracked corn, fine
cracked wheat, and steel-cut oats-to
last ten minutes. AS soon as this mix
ture is eaten, they should be given
sufficient amount of an egg-and-mash
mixture to last them about ten minutes
more made with II egg yolks to each
one and one-half pounds of mash, and
mixed thoroughly TO produce really a
crumbly mixture. Enough of this
mash should be fed to provide one egg
yolk to each 80 chicks daily.
The second week this feeding should
be continued il sufficient supply of
eggs is available. Toward the end OF
the second week the regular laying dry
mash may be given an hour both morn
ing and afternoon, increasing the
length of time until 1t is constantly
before the chicks.
The eggs used In this mixture may
be those taken out Of the incubator on
the seventh and fourteenth day tests.
They will aid materially in the de-
velopment of the chicks and will pre-
vent leg weakness to large extent.
If no eggs are available, pint OF. cod
liver oil mixed with 100 pounds OF
mash may be substituted for the egg
and-mash mixture.
From the time the chicks are three
weeks old, they should be fed three
times day with equal parts of mash
and chick feed

for physical defects 974 children and
out of that number 756 had re-

Of course teeth play very large
part in the comfort, health and hap

are sound but just let one of them
become decayed and sometime during
that process of decay what happens
to the child can he eat properly, or he
or his mother happy? They are not.
Then there are enlarged tonsils and
mouth breathes to consider in large
numbers.
And have you thought of what the
eyes means in the progress of class
work? 1t is true some had simple
eye strain but others, far too many
are carrying on school work with
severe visional defect.
Some of the pupils are already re-

would have better health hence bet
