by means. of two nets, both OF
which are suspended above the
water in readiness for the night
run Of fish. When the fish are seen
to come in droves downstreams
the lower net Is dropped. When the
carp encounter this obstacle they
swim back and forth searching for
place to go through. Mr.. Coates
stated that If one found a hole and
swan through, others would follow
like sheep. After a number of the
carp have passed under the second
net, the latter is dropped. The fish
between the two nets are then
brought ashore by means of a third
net and loaded into boxes for the
four mile trip to the pond menion-
ed at the beginning of this article.
Mr.. Coates stated that he prefer
red winter seining as large hauls
are possible. The fish are slug
gish and permit themselves to be
drawn towards shore where they
are bailed out. Two lines of holes
are cut in the ice and the two ends
OF the net drawn towards shore by
means of ropes passed underneath
the Ice from hole to hole"

Heart, Lungs Of Students
J Menaced by Athletics
Complete Physical Examination Of
All School Athletes Advised
| BY Doctors

st. Paul Minnesota-Every high
school boy and girl who plans to
go in for competitive athletics this
fall should be sure that his heart
and lungs will stand the strain.
For some, school athletics are
wholesome exercise. For others,
they are two-edged sword.
This is the physicians slant on
the much discussed question Of
competitive athletics in high
school and colleges, a question
that is bothering educators gener-
ally, these days, though possibly
for other reasons.
Today's bulletin from the Min
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1931-09-24

nesota State Medical Association,
seriously warns patents and
school authorities against allow
ing children Of high school age to
engage in exhausting competitive
sports without complete physical
check-up.
Many damaged hearts Of later
years can be traced to too much
high school or college football,
Association members say. "a boy
or girl with weakened heart can
easily do himself irresparable
harm at track or basket ball or
football, and frequently does. We
shall have fewer Of these inexpli-
cably numerous deaths from
heart disease when more thorough
medical inspection Is the rule in
every schol for those who engage
in sports"
Lungs are also a danger point
and should have careful attention
the bulletin points out.
Hard running, hard competi-
tive play often brings an old tub
erculosis infection to new life in
adolescence" the doctors declare.
tuberculosis now causes every
fourth death in adolescence and
young manhood and a good many
OF these deaths could be prevent
ed II our medical examinations Of
the candidates for strenuous
school sports included a thorough
chest examination embracing the
tuberculin skin test and X-ray for
showing up the old childhood in
fections that cannot be defeated
In any other way.
The time to prevent such TRACE
dies is before the game, not after"
the bulletin concludes. No boy or
girl should be admitted to any
athletic contest Of any sort this
year who can not show a good
heart and sound lungs-as well as
a scholarship record"

New Bulletin Tells Care of
Milking Rig

How the milking machine is car
ed for will determine whether milk
drawn with it will be as clean,
healthful and marketable as milk
drawn by hand, says a new bulle-
tin just issued by the Agricultural
Extension Division at University
Farm. The author. DR.. Harold
Macy Of the dairy division, explains
that the milking machine makes
it possible to exclude more of the
stable dust and dirt than hand
milking. However, he says, an un-
clean milking machine may cause
excessive bacterial contamination
of the milk thereby decidedly re-
ducing it's keeping quality and
wholesomeness.
The main source Of contamina-
ton in machine drawn milk is the
teat cups. Other sources, in the or
der Of their Importance, condensa-
ton water from the vacuum line,
stable air, and filth on teat cups, If
they are dropped on the floor. Pur-
chasing a machine which provides
for the trapping of condensation
water and the filtering of stable air
will help eliminate some Of these
troubles, while the last one men,
toned may be eliminated through
using reasonable care while moving
the, 'teat cups and head from one
cow to another. .ff -
Cleaning and sterilizing a milk
ing machine is not so long or irk-
some a job as it might appear, DR..
Macy says. In fact, the care of
the machine can be made relatively
simple without excessive time or
labor.
Detailed instructions for washing
the teat cups and tubes and steril-
izing them by cold water, chem
icals or heat, are included in the
bulletin, as well as directions for
the care of stanchion hose, metal
parts, vacuum lines and rubber
parts. Copies of this bulletin may
be had free from county agents or

Lake Gilchrist Carp
Being Fattened With Corn
Take On Weight Like Hogs Being
Prepared for the Market-To
Be Shipped Alive

Fattened on shelled corn, thous-
ands Of carp, which early this sum-
mer were taken out of Gilchrist
lake, II miles south Of this village,
and placed in a ten-acre slough
for the fattening process, will soon
be ready for shipment to the east
ern market says the Brooten Re-
view.
These fish were seined under con-
tract with the state game and fish
department and were trapped in
the Chippewa River, an outlet of
Lake Gilchrist, when they came
out to spawn. They were then
transferred to the new home sew
eral miles from the lake. They eat
corn and put on weight much in the
fashion of hogs when they are fat
tened for market.
In an interview with the publish
err Of the Benson Tribune, the fol-
lowing facts were CLEANED from
Frank Coates, Rolling Forks Farm
er, who is keeper of the. carp pen:
1.-THE carp will soon be shipped
awe III SPcCldlly utSiSucu Sduh
cars to either Chicago or New York,
where they go to the Jewish trade.
Enroute the fish are kept alive by
means Of air forced into the tank
cars from numerous airlines placed
on the floor.
SEEMING for rough fish, carp for
example, is urged by the state in
order that game fish may be pro-
tected. Carp are especially fond Of
spawn and deplete the fish supply.
On the other hand, carp multiply
rapidly. SEEMING for them is done in
the spring when they come out Of
lakes to spawn or in the winter
time.
SEEMING for carp in open water
consists in keeping one end of the
net near shore and bringing the
other end round in a wide sweep
SO as to enclose the fish. Carp are
not gillcaught as are other fish.
Catching them in the Chippewa
river near the Coates farm Is done

Survey Of Farm Sales
Made by Association
Ten Thousand Lakes Greater Min
nesOta Association Asks Co
operation of Citizens

Questionaires have been sent out
by the Ten Thousand Lakes Great
er Minnesota Association to realtors
and bankers throughout the state
in an effort to learn what progress
has been made in land sales during
1881.
Results Of the QUESTIONABLE will
be published in the annual report
Of the secretary, H. c. Hotaling
which will be made public at the
annual meeting Of the Association
at the Nicollet Hotel, Minneapolis
Des. II. Questionaires have also
been sent to resorts and tourist
camps to determine the volume OF
the tourist business in the state
during 1881.
Officers Of the association hope
that the citizens Of the state will
respond to the questionable and
that all who receive them will re-
turn them promptly. It is their
belief that of all the states Min.
nesota has been among the most
fortunate during the recent nation
wide depression. The number OF
inquiries that have been received
at headquarters offices in recent
months would also indicate that
people in other states are looking
towards Minnesota with a view OF
coming here to locate on farms OF
to enter business.
H. G. Hotaling, secretary Of the
association says that despite the
depression many letters have been
received from farmers who are in
terested in securing farm in Min
nesota Some are Minnsotans who
moved to other states few years
ago and now want to come back. In
commenting concerning immigra-
ton prospects Mr.. Hotaling says;
There is no doubt that now Is the
opportune time to buy farm. Val.
ues were never greater and I be.
lieve this specially applies to Min
nesota which today Is one Of the
most favored Of all the farm states
Farmers of other states are now
looking towards Minnesota and
believe that when financial condi.
lions get better we will have 9
good healthy era Of agricultural de.
velopment. In fact l. believe that
liz it were possib,e TO learn how
many farms were sold in Minneso-
ia in 1881 that the facts would be
surprising. For that reason hope
that all sections OF, the state will
cooperate with the Ten Thousand
Lakes-Greater Minnesota Associa,
ton in making its survey. We're
not standing still by any means"

ESSEX UNITS

One of the largest contracts
for automotive transportation
placed by the Government since
the war has been awarded the
Hudson Motor Car Company,
which has received an order for
1000 Essex super six units. The
cars are to be used by the postal
departments on mail delivery
work in Is cities for light and
heavy duty and long and short
hauls, each unit having passed
the more rigid tests established
as part of the Governments
economy drive.
Postal work is not exactly new
to Essex, for II years ago two
Essex cars carried mail from
New York to San Francisco and
San Francisco to New York, the
first automobiles to do so, in
record-breaking time to deliver
their mail sacks hours ahead OF
train time.
William j. McAneeny, president
and general manager of the Hud.

dulged in several reminiscent
smiles when he learned of the
new Government contract.
