b TO DAIRY FARMERS
disabilities Of Electric Reirigera-
! ton Look Very Attractive.

Cooperative agencies which are ex-
amining into the various aspects Of
power farming as it is called
farming with the powerful aid of cleo
trical energy believe that the electric
refrigerator viii prove to be one Of the
most valuable applications Of electric
ity to farm operations. So promising
does this field of investigation appear
that in several Of the states where ex-
porimental electric lines are in opera
ton the committees win specialize In
the possibilities Of electric rstriSera-
ton.
On dairy farms the electric retrix-
orator apparently Will have . very
definite Place. It will be useful In
preserving cream, milk and butter. and
on poultry farms 1t win permit the
preservation Of fresh eggs. In some
states where q state law requires
dairymen to put up q specified quaint
" of ice per COW per year the elsctris
refrigerator would be Considerable
boon.
The General Kectrie Company has
paid special attention to this line OF
equipment and believes that more
than almost any other single form OF
electric farm apparatus. the electric
refrigerator 10 likely to prove = money
coiner. Many creameriss offer bonus
for strictly fresh cream. and certified
milk can be produced for markets
where the price is attractive for the
farmer.
On a scrupulousiy Clean dairy farm.
equipped with proper refrigeration ap-
paFatus, the milk can be passed imme-
diately from the COW to the refrigerat-
ing plant without giving the bacteria
chance to multiply.

PREMIUMS AT STATE CORN
SHOW

4
Premiums in five classes Of corn
and. two classes Of soybeans have
been provided for the annual State
corn show to be held at Cambridge,
January 7 to 3, in conjunction with
the annual MEETINGS Of the Maryland
Agricultural Society, The Maryland
Farm Bureau Federation and affil-
lated organizations.
The corn show will be held under
the auspices Of the Maryland Crop
Improvement Association Of which
Henry Rigdon. Forest Hill, is presi-
dent, and j. e. Metzger, of College
Park. secretary. The show in Cam
bridge will besthe first State corn ex-
hibit to be held on the Eastern Shore
and is expected to attract consider
able attention from the rapidly in
creasing number of good seed corn
growers in that section of the State.
While the quality of corn through
out the State is said to be below the
average this year as a result of the
unfayorable growing season, it is
predicted that there will be. many
exhibits of fine quality from growers
who succeeded in maturing good
crops despite the weather. The two
classes provided for exhibitors of
soybeans will hold much interest in
view of the fact that Somerset
County growers this year succeeded
in winning first, second and three
other places on soybeans at the In
sternational Grain and Hay Show in
Chicago early in December. Like
wise, it is announced, that the an
nual meeting of the Crop Improve
ment Association will be devoted
largely to-; discussion of soybean
culture and that the meeting will be
preliminary to a rally of the Nation
al Soybean Growers Association to
be held at the University of Mary
land, College Park, next August.
The premiums offered, ON corn in
Glass I are for State and Interstate
ten-ear exhibits, of Reid's Yellow
Dent. In Glass II the premiums are
for State and Interstate ten-ear
exhibits of white dent. In Glass III
the premiums are for State and
Interstate ten-ear exhibits OF other
varieties Of yellow dent and cap
corn. In all three classes the pre-
miums range from q first prize Of

DON'T LET THEM OvERDo


Here is message to the mothers,
and incidentally to the fathers in
Maryland, fran the Bureau Of Child
Hygiene. Of the State Department Of
Health. 1t is applicable all the year
round, but It should be especially
needed during the holidays season,
when the temptation to over-excite-
ment, to keep late hours and to have
too little rest, is even greater than at
other times.
Many parents" says DR.. Knox,
Chief of the Bureau" do not appre-
ciate the Importance of sleep and
rest for infants and young children.
Unless a child's nervous system is
adequately rested, no matter how
carefully its diet may be planned,
the child will still be underweight
for its age and will not have normal
resistance to disease.
lover fatigue is a well known
cause of indigestion and loss of
weight. Suitable food and suf-
ficient sleep are more or less depend
ent upon each other. Children ex-
pend great deal Of energy and
strength in attaining height and
weight. Great care must be taken
at all times, to guard against over
stimulation Of child's nervous
system.
During the first six months of
life, the young infant sleeps, eats
and grows. 1t often requires from
twenty, ito twenty-five hours, out Of
the twenty-four to sleep. During
the second half year, sixteen to
eighteen hours is necessary; fifteen
hours of sleep during the second
year, and twelve to fourteen hours
of sleep up to 1.-THE fourth year are
not too much. t
Young children, from two to six
years old, are often allowed to sit up
too long after the evening meal, and
SO miss long hours Of streng91 iylhg
sleep. Children, INDUCED IN tRis
way, are apt to be pale, peevish,
restless, and irritable; and have
poor appetites.
Zone Of the most important fea-
lures of a young child's daily
routine is the midday rest. Very
many children under six, can not
store up in six or eight hours enough
susrplus energy to carry on" hap
PLY during twelve hours of con-
slant activity.
All doctors have had to insist
upon a midday rest for young child
rem who have been brought to them
because of nervousness or indi-
gestion, and have learned that the
hours rest-or sleep, if possible
without any change in diet, will gem
orally restore the children to health.
Even when children are attend
ing two sessions of school, it is often
possible to have a child Of seven
years old rest for an hour after the
midday meal before returning to
school. When this is impossible the
rest should be taken Immediately
after the afternoon session. Many
schools caring for young children,
provide for rest period at midday.
Even if children cannot sleep at this
time. complete relaxation in a quiet
and well ventilated room, or, If the
season permits, upon a porch, is of
great benefit. ,
