Burglars Break
Into School
Some One Takes Glass from Door in
Mckinley School Principals
Office on Monday.

The janitor at the Mckinley school
on arriving at the building at five
o'clock this morning found that some
one had been in the place before him
and that the intruder would have been
liked better had he kept away.
The Office of the principal of the
school had been entered and forty
dollars stolen from a desk. In break
ing in the thief had taken the glass
from the door.
The amateur thief, however, had
left fine speciman of finger prints
on the glass, and Secretary Meissner
of the police secured from the pane a
set of finger prints for Identification,
which the police believe will help
them establish the age and identity
of the burglar.

Voice of the People
WARNING TO THE PUBLIC.

A WARNING TO THE PUBLIC.
This includes every mother, father,
boy or girl.
Nowadays there are so many acct
dents happening it's really a crime
to glance at paper, yet these may be
prevented somewhat and here's how.
If mothers and guardians of small
children will only keep them out of
the streets accidents will be chopped
down rs per cent.
Whenever a child Is hurt or prob
ably killed, the driver is no doubt
unjustly held responsible. Do you
really think, we, the drivers Of motor
cars deliberately try to run the limo
cent children down, or do you think
we laugh when some poor, unfortunate,
innocent child is hurt. No, we feel
worse about it than the ordinary per-
son, yet, if children are allowed TO
play in the streets, accidents are
bound to occur.
Children in the streets are and will
be dangerous always, but at the hour
when factories dismiss it is dangerous
for even a man or woman to be in the
u
reckless? No! It's simply because
there are so many cars now person
as we'll as the driver is confused in
the crowds in the street.
I'm not trying to say all drivers
are excellent No. Many accidents
can be prevented if drivers were not
so hasty but it is about even up. A
pedestrian takes as many or maybe
more chances than driver. So this
word should be read by all who are
looking toward the welfare of the
small children.
anyone who allows their children
to seek the streets as recreation
place should be duly punished, because
if a driver should happen to hit the
child he is Immediately held for
manslaughter.
1t is not justice to hold driver
responsible unless the accident could
have been avoided. Sidewalks were
built for the people as the road was
for autos.
If an auto comes driving up the
sidewalk the driver is arrested and
fined, yet people will cross streets
reading a paper or looking every place
but where they are going.
It is impossible to stop a car, that
is if the person or child is not seen,
more than thirty (30) or forty (40)
feet away. Usually children play
where car is parked and where
driver in the opposite direction can
not see him or her. The child takes
a notion to cross the street and the
result is an injury or smashup.
Is it justice 20 compel man to
drive under these conditions? Ger
tainly not. If the people are bit
more cautious and drivers are bit
more careful, we can help drive out
this killing of innocent children.
Let US all cooperate, both men, wom-
en- and children and drivers of autos,
and see if it will help. Surely there
is some way out Of this situation.
&. A. Bohle.

JOBLESS.

Unemployment insurance is put in
to effect in the garments industry.
If successful, it will spread to other
trades. It's promised that the unem-
ployment fund will be handled on a
non profit basis.
Meantime, as we watch the expert
ment, not bad idea to keep in mind
that the original and best form of
unemployment insurance is a person
al savings account at the bank.
How many are saving for the next
period of business depression? It
may not come for years, but the wise
play safe.

Grass Quite Essential
for Starting Goslings

GOslings do not thrive in small bare
enclosures as they are naturally grass
eaters. A range abundantly covered
with tender grass and shade are es-
sential to their growth. During the
heat Of the day they need protection
from the hot sun. A high mortality
rate results when goslings are placed
in bare fenced enclosures with the
idea Of protecting them from injury
by other birds or animals, writes Il. G.
Kirby in the Farm and Ranch.
Tender grass can be used as the
only feed for gosllngs for the first
two days. Then use moist mash
five times a day. An easily made
mash consists of two-thirds mid
dlings and one-third corn meal, bran,
middlings and rolled oats moistened
with skim milk. Some breeders start
the goslings on bread and milk. The
bread is soaked in milk and squeezed
nearly dry before feeding.
After the first week the goslings
will relish scalded cracked corn. The
goslings are grass eaters and not grain
eaters, and If any part of their ration
Is ever neglected be sure it is not
the regular supply of tender green
grass which they can soon harvest
for themselves on the right kind Of
range.

Undesirable Flavors or
Odors Nav Be Prevented

Silage odors are absorbed largely
through the body of the COW rather
than from the air, according to tests
made by the United States Department
of Agriculture. However. these odors
may be practically or entirely removed
by the aeration of the milk while 1t is
still warm. Rather heavy feeds Of
siIage may be given to cows one hour
after milking without any undesirable
fiavors or odors passing into the milk.
When green alfalfa was fed In relative
ly large quantities one hour before
milking marked flavors and odors were
noticed in the milk, but when as much
as 30 pounds per COW was fed after
milking there was no effect on the
milk from the next milking.

New Disease of Peaches
Discovered in Indiana

Purdue university experts are seek
ing n remedy or prevention for bac-
terium pruni. new disease of peaches
which has caused much loss in south
ern Indiana, and are asking orchard
lists to be on the lookout for evidences
of the diseases in nursery stock. The
disease Is most pronounced on the
leaxes, causing irregular, purplish
spots and causing the leaves to fall,
weakening the tree. On the fruit the
disease is In smaller spots but n more
decided purplish color, and on the
year-old or younger wood 1t appears
purplish brown, often causing slightly
raised cankers around the leaf scars.
1t Is thought wind-driven rain spreads
the disease. So far no remedy has

April Favored by Many
for Sowing Red Glover

Many farmers seed clover as early
as February, while others wait until
April and sow with apparently equal
success. Some sow half the seed early
and half late, since very light seed
ing will be sufficient under favorable
conditions. The month of March is
recommended by many. A honey
combed or dry, frozen condition of the
soil is likely to exist at that time. A
dry, cracked condition develops lit
tie later and 1t is considered by these
men as second choice.
