 No awards were made for the best Child's garden, the commit. tee on that section reported, as none of the gardens were up to specifications although much en- thusiasm was reported.

supt. Keller Explains Error

Superintendnt w. K. Keller called attention this morning to an unintentional error occurring in yesterdays school news regard ing the Fair award. The Ger tificate of Award received yes. terday by the Juneau Public Schools was a belated certificate of the award for the 1926 Fair and was so dated. Due to the lateness of the receipt of the cer- tificate the date was not noticed and the supposition was that it was for the 1927 fair. When the date was noticed it was too late to change the article which had been given The Empire.

Customary to Force
Teachers to "Treot"

Forcing the teacher to "treat'' the
pupils was customary In Ohio rural
schools in the early days, and in 1853
the practice brought about a formal
opinion by the acting state commits
sioner Of schools. The pupils Of one
school had, on the previous New Years
eve, taken possession of the school
house and excluded the teacher and
the school directors from 1t, announc-
ing that they would not surrender un-
til the teacher had agreed to treat the
pupils to the amount of at least 50,
relates J. 81. Galbraith, Ohio historian.
It must have been a stiff fight, for
the commissioner, in his opinion, said
1t nearly broke up the school. The
problem passed to the commissioner
was as to whether the teacher, who
had spent So for the treat to restore
harmony, could be compensated out
of the local school funds. The COM
missioner ruled that the teacher was
out his So unless he could compel the
pupils to return the money.

Sanitation Is Big Help
to Reduce Fowl Cholera

Fowl cholera Is one Of the greatest
menaces to poultry flocks, declared
DR.. j. w. Lumb, extension veterina-
rian of the Kansas State Agricultural
college In a recent radio address. 1t
affects chickens, turkeys and ducks
with equally fatal results. 1t Is most
prevalent In late summer, fall and
early spring and is due largely to
changes of housing conditions and
methods of feeding and handling
which tend to lower the resistance of
the fowls.
Fowl cholera closely resembles
fowl typhoid. In fact the resemblance
is so close that to most persons the
diseases appear to be identical. Even
trained workers are often compelled
to make microscopic examinations be-
fore definitely diagnosing the disease.
Ordinary symptoms are ruffling of the
feathers, loss of appetite, dropping of
the wings and tail, staggering gait,
and diarrhea.
The organism which causes fowl
cholera is microscopic in size, Is rod
shaped, and known as pasteurells
avium. 1t multiplies very rapidly In
the blood, causing blood poison.
Sanitary measures greatly reduce
the number of cases of cholera, ac-
cording to Doctor Lumb, Regular ra-
lions, good ventilation, even temporal
ture, pure water, large houses and
large runs are also conditions which
help ward off the disease.

Every Variety Requires Def

Time to Mature Fruit.
From data gathered during the last
four years, ]. r. Magness, psychologist
of the United States Department of
Agriculture, concludes that every ap-
pie variety requires definite number
of days to mature its fruit after the
blossoming season. Some varieties re-
quire 1876 to ITO days, others $50 to
155, and still others ripen In less
than 40 days from blossoming time.
Apparently this time interval for ma
turity holds good for the different va
rieties regardless of other factors such
as soil and climate, although these
latter factors do have a bearing on
quality.
Length of Season.
A careful analysis of the commercial
adaptation of apple varieties in differ
ent sections of the United States in
dicates that this length of season re-

The European corn borer does Its
