years experiments conducted by one
of the authors during which time a
close check was kept on the relatives
efficiency and resulting increase in
growth and development from feeding
number of the more common calf
feeds. One interesting fact brought
cut by the tests was that normally
healthy calf can be raised on approx
imately 100 pounds of whole milk and
from 60 to IS pounds of skim milk
powder. Part of this amount of skim
milk powder may be fed in liquid form

MarglObe Variety of Tomato Makes
Good Showing
Reports from L. M. Goodwin, can
ming crops specialist for the Univer-
sity of Maryland Extension Service,
are to the effect that Marglobe variety
of tomato, recently developed and in
troduced by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, has shown very
favorable growth and production in
Maryland during the past summer and
promises to be a profitable variety for
the many growers of the State.
Because of the unusually dry season
it has not produced normal crop,
but it has withstood the blossom and
rot disease better than any other kind
of tomato grown in this section, ac-
cording to Mr.. Goodwin. AS result,
he reports that the Marglobe variety
is being lauded by both Gamers and
growers, since it is particularly de-
sirable, due to it's smooth snaps and
superior qaulity.

MUST HAVE CHILD'S FULL
NAME ON BIRTH RECORD
Health Department Must Have
Accurate Records for Children

Does the Health Department know
your child's name? If you are not
sure of it, write to the Bureau of Vital
Statistics of the State Department of
Health, PAIL North Charles street,
Baltimore, and find out. 1t may mean
a great deal to the child later on.
The assistance of the Bureau has
been requested recently in establish
ing the identity of a child in case,
still pending, involving the transfer Of
a considerable sum of money. The
birth proved to be registered, but the
child's name had been omitted by the
person who sent in the original record
and other sources have had to be con-
suited in order that the child's identi-
ty may be legally proved.
About 10000 births. occur in the
counties of Maryland every year and
the State law requires every birth to
be reported within four days of its
occurrence. For purposes of identifi-
cation, the names of the parents, place,
date of birth, sex, color, and the first
name of the child must be entered
upon the record that is forwarded to
the department. If the record is not
complete, letter is sent to the par
ents asking them to supply the miss
ing information. AS soon as the COM
plete record is received, an engraved
certificate, containing all of the facts
is mailed to the parents. Because Of
their Importance to the children, these
certificates should be kept in a safe
place along with the family records
and other valuable papers.
Largely because the parents fail to
understand the necessity for enter
ing the child's given name, that very
important item is frequently omitted
when the birth is reported. Then,
when the child's age or identity have
to be established in order that he or
she may enter school; may take out
work papers; may vote; may obtain
a passport to visit foreign countries;
may prove the right to inherit proper
ty, or to transact other important bus
mess, the omission of the given name
from the records makes such trans
actions very difficult. A number Of
instances have occurred in connection
with settlement of estates when an in
heritance was lost to an Individual be-
cause his or her birth had either not
been reported or because of the omis-
sion of some important fact from the
record.
A recent checking up, under the di-
rection of Mr.. John Collision, Chief Of
Bureau of Vital Statistics, of the orig
inal records of births reported from
the counties of Maryland since 1898,
brought out some startling facts. 1t
was shown, for instance, that about
one out of every four of the original
records failed to supply the given
name of the child. This means that
the given name is omitted from the
records of about 1000 children born
in the counties every year. The in
quiry also showed that even repeated
notices to the parents have failed to
bring the missing information.
If you have any doubt as to whether
your child's birth has been completely
reported, write to the Bureau of Vital
statistics.
