can sorts of organizations are,
pressed into service, such as boards OF
health, chambers of commerce, dairy
mems organizations, dental assoeia-
tions, the Red Cross, Salvation Army,
the press, welfare workers, and the
like, and committees are appointed to
look after school activities, finance,
speakers, advertising, motion pictures,
posters, photograps, etc. Prizes are
offered for the best essays on the use
Of milk for health, the most artistic
posters, and milk songs. These are
prepared and submitted by the chill
dren and some remarkably good exam
pies Of art have thus been brought
forth. Some Of the posters are excep-
tionally fine, and an example Of milk
song is the following, to the tune Of
Smiles:
"'There are drinks that make you
slender,
There are drinks that make you
stout,
There are drinks that steal away
your beauty,
There are drinks that make you
whine and pout;
But the drink that's best for
every reason
It will give H. c. of L. the
punch,
1t will fill you full of pep and
gladness,
It's the milk that you drink for
lunch
"The results obtained from drinking
milk freely-a quart day has been
recommended-have been such as to
justify the department and those work
ing with it for the expense involved.
Milk has proved to be the ideal food
for the youngsters in giving them
growth, health, excellent mentalities,
splendid muscles, and all the things

The clock still lacked few minutes
of the kiddies' bedtime, and they oc-
cupied it in putting together the fol
lowing rhyme, which Uncle Ted told
them to fit to a popular song and he
would submit it to the committee on
prizes:
"Here is your bottle, here is your
straw;
Slip through the top and these
blessings you II draw:
Eyes clear as crystal, cheeks
without flaw,
Speed in your games and mind
that's alert;
Growth, health, and laughter; in

Marvellous muscles, skin smooth

These are the blessings Of drink

that it goes step further by encour-
aging the greater use of milk in the
home, and particularly among school
children. That is the reason for these
Milk for Health campaigns which the
department is encouraging throughout
the country, and in which it cooper
ates with the extension division of the
state agricultural colleges and local
authorities.
1.-TWO years ago the department of
agriculture sent out letter saying:
During the past few years a
custom has developed and spread
nh tha s.l
undoubtedly of foremost import
ance to the health of our future
generations; namely, the serving
Of milk in public schools. The
great Importance which milk plays
in the diet of the growing child
has been given wide attention, and
is becoming well established in the
minds of those interested in child
welfare. There is no better time
for the child to receive a portion
of his milk ration than during the
school lunch -. Caution should
be taken to see that the milk is
not delivered to the school until
AASh siAhcJ vi IL uelANtIeQ AT an
earlier hour, to see that it is prop
erly iced and stored until served.
All milk for the school lunch
should be delivered in bottles, as
this is much more sanitary. The
tops of the bottles should be thor
oughly washed before opening. The
milk should be drunk without pour
ing from the bottles, for children
will frequently fail to keep indi-
vidual cups or glasses in clean,
sanitary condition. Even more san
itary is the use of individual
straws. Sometimes bottles are
capped with a special cap for
school use.

From Chancellor to Dispose of

Conduct of the business of the Mid

MiddletOwn and Smyrna, by a receiv-
er, being handicapped by the large
amount of interest-bearing indebted
ness contracted before a receiver was
appointed, Chancellor WolcOtt has au-

alton. The Smyrna and Middletown

requesting the chancellor to authorize
him to sell the properties Mr.. Stevens
set forth, in a petition that he has
carried on the business of the COM
pany at a profit, preserving its good
will and trade, which is one of its
valuable assets. The business could
be carried on more profitable however,
if it were not for the large amount of
interest-bearing Indebtedness, he add
ed. The corporation, besides owning
properties in this state, has property
in Cecilton, Maryland, valued at about
$511, which has been seized for in
debtedness. Mr.. Stevens stated that it
would not be desirable to reduce this
seized property to his possession
through auxiliary proceedings in
Maryland. All the property will be
sold clear of all liens and incumber-
ances, excepting the lien of a mort
gage made to the Security Trust and

FARMERS UP COUNTRY HEAR
MILK PROBLEMS DISCUSSED
LOW PRICE OF MILK AND HIGH
PRICE OF FEED STIRS FARMERS
RIO. Bausman, County Agent for New
Castle, Suggests Two Ways to
Farmers in Their Dilema

County Agent R. o. Bausman dis
cussed the status of the dairy farmer
at the monthly meetin gof the New
Castle Farm Bureau last Saturday,
stating that "due to the fact that the
price of milk had gone down and the
cost of feed had increased the dairy
farmers are experiencing a difficult
situation. Mr. Bausman outlined two
propositions, either CT which should
have an important effect in solving
the dairy farmers problem. The first
is to strengthen the Interstate Milk
Producers Association thru a strong
membership, especially in the north
en part of the county. The Inter
State Association is one already es-
tablished and thru its membership of
10000 and its several years of activi-
ties is in a position to give the Della
ware farmers the advantage of its
strength and its experience. The capi-
tai entailed thru this proposition is
nominal. The alternative proposed by
Mr.. Bausman is for the farmers to
perfect a farmers cooperative milk
distributing organization. The latter
proposition entails the building OF
leasing Of a plant which would nee
essitate large outlay of capital. A
committee consisting of L. c. Hotfeck
er, of Bear, and P. f. Pleasanton, Of
Middletown was appointed to look int
the proposal and report at the mex
meeting. J. D. Reynolds, manager o
the Membership Drive, reported tina
the New Castle County Association
now exceeds 500 with more prospect
in sight for a goodly increase owe
this number during the month o
March. The potato and soy bean poo
were also discussed.

THIRTY PENNIES GROW TO $3.50
Novel Plan Used by MillsbOrO Sunday
School for Raising Funds

From thirty pennies distributed in
the Sunday School of Grace Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, at Millsboro,
nine months ago, by the late Rev.
George R. Ellis, there has been
brought in S43O which will be applied
to the parsonage fund. Upon reeciv-
ing the pennies, the Sunday School
scholars put them to work earning
something toward the fund. The chill
dren made investments, by clubbing
together, in sugar, chocolate, favors,
etc, and made and sold cake and
candy. From the proceeds of their
sales, they reinvested in different ar
ticles and kept on selling until the
thirty pennies had earned for the
church the amount reported. Each
person to whom one of the pennies
had been given related their exper-
ience in making investments. In adj
dition to the amount collected by the
novel plan, a quilt recently was SOLD
for $50 and the Washington Birthday
supper given Friday night of last
week netted SIS. 1t may be a yeal

INSTRUCTION IN FARMING
What Agriculture Means to a Boy in
Farming Community, Demonstrated

What Agriculture Means to Boy in
a Farming Community, Demonstrated
Somebody who has made careful
study of the existing conditions Of the
courses Of study offered in our high
schools found that there was a great
need for practical instruction, for 500
out of every 1000 pupils that enter
high school, drop out before the end
of the four years, with the result
that the boy is fitted only to become
an unskilled laborer, and the girl an
Indifferent house keeper and mother.
A law was passed by Congress known
as the Smith-Hughes Law, which pro-
vides the Home Economic Department
for Girls and the Agricultural class
for boys. Every child taking up these
courses, cannot help, no matter how
Indifferent they may be, to be greatly
benefited, and fully able to compete
and make a living on completing the
course. The average farm boy seems
to have an aversion to even taking the
course. In a farming community
where everything is so dependent on
the farmer it would be a good idea
for any body who expects to do bust
ness of any kind, to take up this
course in order to get the farmers
view point The boys who take the
course find out so many new things
every day that they become more en-
thusiastic as the course developes.
The boys in the Smyrna Center made
a total of $1185.OO last year on their
projects, one boy making $344.00 by
selling the milk of one cow about
! town. The boys are striving to sur
pass this mark this year. The agri-
cultural work isn't difficult to under
stand, there is a home project for each
student, where he puts into practice
what he learns in the class room, and
there is an opportunity for him tC
make considerable money while at.
tending school, If a boy can make
enough each year out of his project
work to buy his clothes, it is worth
considering where there is a large
family.
