The books which we have in our
library are ours, and are there for
our particular benefit. When checking
books out, the two week limit Is often
over-run and 1t Is necessary to impose
fine on persons returning overdue
books. We are all acquainted with this
practice. Nevertheless, there has been
much delinquency in paying fines. The
library can not remain open to those
showing such marked carelessness Of
Its property. Pay your book finest
Each day, a list of books due on
that day and the next is posted In the
library. Consequently there is no ex-
cuse for book running overdue, If
the list is consulted frequently.
If, through carelesness, or other rea-
sons, you find you're subject to a book
fine, don't be piker and try to crawl
out of it. Pay your fine!

Advice Is Given On
Feeding of Children

Mental work does not affect the
food requirement of child but an
undernourished body will reflect itself
Hunt of the college of home econ
omics, Washington State College.
The child of uncertain appetite and
whimsical palate, whose cheeks are
pale, who tires easily and whose IA
tigue does not bring restful sleep, needs
patient correction of his eating habits.
Fresh air and exercise will give an
edge to appetite. So will food that is
nicely served in moderate quantities.
Children like variety, says Miss Hunt,
and their taste for wholesome food
should not be destroyed by serving
the same food too frequently or by
serving it in the same manner.
AS far as possible, meals should be
served at the same hours each day.
If the child becomes hungry between
meals, give him only the plain food
which will not cloy the appetite. How
ever, children will be better off if their
energy is devoted toward other inter-
ests that will take their mind off fan
cied needs for food.
Meals should be eaten in leisurely
manner and should be occasions of
pleasant relationship. Disturbance OF
the mind should be avoided. Table
manners should be corrected amiably.
Never use force in insisting that the
child eat certain foods. Cooperation
between the parents is often needed
to set an example, Miss Hunt believes.
Leave the food before the child rea-
sonable length of time. If he does not
eat, remove it but do not talk about
it.

Leaf Hopper Is Blamed
for Stunning Alfalfa

The following and stunning of the
second growth of alfalfa so prevalent
last year was not due to "sun burn"
as commonly anticipated but to an in
sect foe of alfalfa, according to l.. r.
GRADER, University Of Wisconsin au-
thority on alfalfa.
"This insect, the leaf hopper" said
GRADER, lis tiny but potent foe of
alfalfa, causing stunning and marked
yellowing of the second growth, yet
infestations and injury are easily con-
trolled. Our findings have definitely
shown that the simple expedient of
delayed cutting of the first crop is the
effective remedy"
1t is hard to believe but neverthe-
less true that matter of deferring
cutting of the first growth from six to
twelve days will increase the seasonal
yields by as much as ton per acre
because it reduces the number of leaf
hoppers that will appear in the next
growth, GRADER asserted. A
Leafhoppers do not appear in the
first growth until spring and by de-
ferring the cutting until about the end
of June the insect will lay the bulk of
Its eggs in the first growth so that
they may be removed in and with the
hay. This protects the next crop, he
declared.

Wood for Fuel

Many farms have good woodlot
that provides an ample supply of fuel
for winter needs. Some of these are
being destroyed through improper cut
ting. Trees which are defective. trees
which overtop valuable young growth
and softwood trees which have little
value for lumber should be used for
fuel. A crooked stick burns as good
as straight one and good trees should
be left for timber and should be given
every possible chance to develop.

Clean Farming Kills Bugs

The most effective way of combat
ing insect pests in large fields, where
high costs may prohibit the use Of In
secticides, is to follow good farm prac-
tees, which call for clean fields, prop
erly prepared and fortified seedbeds,
and tested seeds, says Lee A. Strong,
federal entomologist. These methods
may halt an outbreak at the start, and
also encourage the growth, of robust
plants more capable of resisting insect
attack. Simple changes in routine
farm operations which deprive insects
of food or shelter at critical periods
in their life cycles also play an i'm
portant part in this war.

Busy Potato Flea
Is Easily Halted
Sprays and Dusts Are Best
Suited for Control of
Bothersome Pest.

The potato flea beetle Is a tiny.
plump, shiny black insect about as
long as the diameter of the lead In
pencil aud slightly narrower In width.
Che presence of flea beetles MAY be
easily detected by the peculiar per-
foratcd appearance Of the injured
foliage. In cases of serious damage
to leaves by this pest, says a writer In
the Wisconsin Agriculturist, the leaves
look as If they had been riddled by
shot. The beetle hops like flea which
gives 1t its name. During the warm
days of June and July is the time to
watch for this pest and use the sprays
and dusts best suited for its control
Flea beetles feed on large variety
of plants. but are most troublesome
on cucumbers, potatoes, tomatoes,
egg plants, radishes, and cabbage,
and are believed to be responsible
for the spread of certain diseases. In
July or August a second brood may
play havoc with potatoes, tomatoes,
and egg plants.
Fortunately flea beetles dislike leaf
surfaces covered with any foreign
material, such as sprays or dusts;
and If treatments are made before
serious injury occurs and if the leaf
surfaces are thoroughly coated, the
insects are easily held in check. Since
the adults appear suddenly and work
fast, 1t is important to keep close
watch on the field or garden to de-
tect the first signs of invasion.
Calcium arsenate in bordeaux mix
ture is regarded as the safest and
most effective spray, while tobacco
and monohydrated copper sulfate dust
with lime are recommended among the
dust preparations.

HAY Fever Sufferers

IT is a mystery to many that one
L member of family will be attacked
regularly by hay fever and the rest
of the family, living in the same house
hold, breathing the same air, never
have an attack.
You will admit that this is definite
proof that there is something about
this hay fever sufferer, something
about the general condition of his
body, or part or parts of his body, that
gives him this tendency towards at
tacks of hay fever.
DIR. M. J. Gutman, Munich, states
that the fact that pollen from plants
nut into the nose Of normal persons
is removed from the body unchanged,
whereas in a hay fever patient sensi-
tive to this particular type of pollen,
the pollen is changed, some of it hav-
ing burst, shows that the mucous lin
ing of the nose, or the mucous (the
LIQUID on the lining of the nose) diff
fers from that Of normal person.
AS you know the hay fever patient
suffers with an Inflammation of the
eyes, nose, throat and bronchial tubes.
It is unfortunate that so many school
teachers are afflicted with it, as it not
only tires them but makes them very
irritable. In addition to the symptoms
In eyes, nose, throat and chest, In a
number of cases there are skin erup-
lions such as hives (urticaria, intes-
final distress and nervous symptoms.
Manufacturers of dust proof and
noise proof windows are now quite
widely advertising the use of these
windows in relieving hay fever symp-
toms.
Naturally for a sleeping room,
equipped with one of these devices,
doors and key hole would have to be
plugged, but certainly the patient
should get relief during the hours of
sleep, which might enable him to be
fairly comfortable the rest of the time.
The treatment Of hay fever continues
the same, that is injections Of serum,
beginning two to three months before
the usual attack occurs.
While this has definitely helped a
great number, it has not helped others,
and so other measures are found nee
essary-going away to district where
there is little or no pollen in the air,
living in chambers or rooms number
of hours day the air Of which is kept
free Of pollen.
For a great number of sufferers the
use Of the various remedies containing
adrenalin gives considerable relief.

The "New" Diet System
JAMES W. BARTON, M. D.

The "New" Diet System
VOU are hearing something of a
new" system of diet whereby you
do not eat meat when you eat pota-
toes, or you do not eat bread when you
eat meat.
The reason seriously advocated by
those who use this diet is that your
digestive apparatus should not be
asked to do too much work at one
time; thus If 1t is digesting starch 1t
shouldn't be required to digest proteid
also.
AS matter of fact there Is moth
ing new" about this system; every
doctor has heard or read about 1t for
great many years but there never
was time when it was so much dis
cussed or used.
You may remember how the IS day
diet swept over the country leaving
many invalids and causing many
deaths. 1t would appear that this fad
is also interesting a great many peo-
pie, but fortunately 1t Is not likely to
cause any serious trouble.
While 1t must be admitted that the
engines or ferments in the digestive
juices which break up or digest foods,
act differently from one another In
that one acts on starches, another on
proteids, and another on fats, never
theless as they all flow together at the
sight and smell of food there is always
enough of them to digest linked"
meal.
VIII this system of not eating meat
or eggs with bread or potatoes help
certain individuals?
Dr. Ruth f. Wadsworth, In Golfers,
says that while this new system is
unnecessary for the average we'll In
dividual, nevertheless anyone follow
ing 1t really gets a good all-round
linked" diet. IF you won't eat
starches with your meal you can't eat
meat alone so you add vegetables,
fresh fruits and salads. And If you
can't eat meat and eggs with the 9th
er two meals you are bound by va
riety to have stewed or raw fruits
with your cereals and more salads and
vegetables. Consequently you are get
ting more variety, more. vitamins, more
bulk than you ever thought you had
time for before"
Now there are a number Of young
people who have difficulty In digest
ing starches, and some older people
who have difficulty in digesting fats.
1t is in these cases that this method
of taking food might be helpful.
For the vast majority of people this
method is not necessary or even ad-
visable as it gets the mind" too much
on the food, and upsets the usual
household arrangements.
However it makes sure Of good all
round diet and can't hurt you If you
want to try it. In fact, 1t may really
help you.

Producing Milk

Several hundred contrasting associa-
ton records from Indiana herds show
that on the average it takes "a pounds
of silage, 90 pounds of hay and 80
pounds of grain to produce 100 pounds
of milk with the average 400-pounds
COW, states G. A. Williams, Purdue uni
versity. At present feed prices the
cost is approximately 44.S cents. With
the average 200-pound COW it takes 81
pounds of silage, AS pounds Of hay and
AZ pounds of grain for 100 pounds of
milk.
