Cornish Speaks to
Gardiner ROtarianS

One of the most interesting speak
ers yet to address the Gardiner Ro-
tary Club was Rev. CRUDE 3. Cor
nish, secretary of the State Board of
Charities and Corrections who gave
the members a birds eye view of the
wonderful work being done by this
board at the meeting "Wednesday
noon. He dealt more particularly
with the care and bringing up of
the unfortunate boys nd girls of our
State, and told of the crowded con-
ditions of the several State institu-
lions that We're meant to care for
the same. He said that of tie boys
and girls that came into their charge
but a very small percentage were
of the weak minded class, and that
the most of them had through loss
of parents or unhealthy surround
ings erred, and brought i,ito Gus
toby.
He recommended that work should
be done in the various State insti-
tutions, and pointed out the neces-
sity of this in the case of a young
lad who il he did not have some
thing to occupy his time might be
greatly harmed by association with
the older prisoners. He also point
ed out that although in the case OF
a man released from prison there
was always some one to take his
hand and assist him in procuring a
new start in life, in the case of a
woman leaving prison or the refor-

women, and there is usually nothing
for her to do, but to start back over
tie same Faith that had led her to
the prison door. f'f
Another topic. upon which he
spoke was Mothers Aid" and he
stated that this provided thirty dol
lars month upon which a mother
and three or four children might
exist, whereas il this could not be
obtained the same mother would
necessarily be made a city charge by
application to the city officials for
aid. The latter many persons re-
fuse to do, feeling that it is a dis
grace, and therefore much suffering
and sometimes even ueath results
from their failure to accept such aid.
He further stated that of all the fin
anciers he. considere ed these mothers

cost of living it was a very hard task
for poor people to exist on thirty

HEALTH OFFICER
ISSUES WARNING

Health Officer DR.. w. o. Cobb has
issued his final official warning to
food handlers Of Gardiner to be eX-
amined and in possession of cer-
tificate testifying to their fitness to
handle foodstuffs. This applies to
persons who have not a certificate
dated since July 1. 1925, and those
who have ignored this law should
take mediate steps to comply with it
or suffer the penalty.
The district health officer from
Augusta was in town some time ago
and found several who had not been
examined and who declared that they
would not be, If these persons do not
possess certificate on his next visit
which will be in the near future, they
will be dealt with as the law pro-
vides. On the whole however. Dr.
Cobb reports splendid cooperation
among buyers and vendors of food
and many have come in of their own
volition and presented themselves for
examination wishing to protect both
themselves and their customers and
the fact that nine tenths have been
ready and willing to cooperate
should make the others feel that this
is tie only right thing to do. DR..
, Cobb states that this is State law,
and that he is simply enforcing the
orders of his superiors.

the accuracy of its estimates depends
upon the accuracy of the returns
made by farmers.
The beneficial effects that such IN
formatio.. may have upon price is
shown by the level of hog prices dur
ing the winter OF 1924-25 compared to
the previous winter. The pig surveys
of June and December 1924 showed
decided decrease in hog production
| in 1924 compared to 1928. Marketings
however, during the winter from the
/ 1924 crop Were almost as large as the
previous winter, and in December and
January were the highest on record.
In spite of these heavy marketlngs,
hog prices were from $500 to $500
per hundred higher than during the
winter before. The heavy marketings
were rightly interpreted as being an
| carly marketing of smaller number
| of hogs caused by a short corn crop,
and not as indicating a correspond
| ingly larger number of hogs.
| But unless these estimates can be
kept dependable the trade will dis
regard them. and will be guided
either by private estimates. or by ac-
| tual marketings as these take place.
Therefore, every farmer should help
| to make these reports accurate by
making the report for his own farm
