JUVENILE DELINQUENCY
LEGISLATION

In signing the bill which provides
for submission to the voters of the
State of a Constitutional Amend
ment creating Juvenile Court in
Baltimore City, and authorizing
such courts in the counties, Governor
O'Conor declared that another
step has been taken, believe, to-
wards the control and ultimate re-
duction of Juvenile delinquency in
our State"
The Governor previously had sign
ed another Juvenile Delinquency
emasure, which provided for the
appointment of Commission on Jul
venile Delinquency which is to in
vestigate the whole subject of Jul
venile Delinquency, and submit re-
port of its findings with possible sug-
gested legislation to the Governor
and Legislative Council before Sep
TENDER /, 1912.
Announcing that the measure pro-
viding for the Constitutional Amend
ment had the complete approval of
the Administration, Governor O'Con-
or expressed the hope that it would
be approved by the voters i'm 1912.
"The whole subject of Juvenile De-
linquency'', the Governor continued,
sis one that has commanded a great
deal of attention and thought on
the part of various agencies of the
State and interested ptrsons thru
out the past years. The two measur-
es, to establish Juvenile Courts
and to suggest further legislation in
this direction will result, am con-
fident, in the greatest of benefit to
the entire State"

TREE PLANTING IN MARYLAND

Nearly 100000 young trees,
grown i'm the State nursery at Col
lege Park, have been set out in the
planting season just ended, F. w.
Besley, State Forester, reports.
Most of the seedlings and trans
plants were ordered by private land
owners to replenish forests and
establish individual soil conservation
projects, Besley explained. The
State nursery received 242 orders in
the planting season which started
last fall.
Nursery-grown trees are sold to
private landowners at cost, prices
ranging from $3.50 to SO for seed
lings and from SO to IS for trans
plants, depending on the varities.
The seedlings range from about five
to eighteen inches in height; the
transplants, from twelve to eighteen
inches.
The State this year distributed
435,363 seedlings and 143,35O
transplants for forest purposes; A.
362 for roadside planting, and 2,442
for windbreakS.
OF the total of 692,262 trees
grown in the nursery and planted
this year, the State Forester said,
523,662 went to private citizens,
10000 were planted in State For
ests and 10000 we're planted in the
Federal experimental forest project.
Principal varieties supplied by the
nursery this year, according to Bes-
ley, were loblolly pine, white pine,
red pine, black locust and spruce.
The nursery next year plans to
produce 100000 young trees, Bes-
ley said. An increase in demand was
noted in the last several years, he
added, partially because of the soil
conservation services encourage
of tree planting as a conservation
measure.

INCREASED MILK PRODUCTION
NEEDED IN DEFENSE
PROGRAM

Prospective export needs for dairy
products, particularly cheese, evap-
GRATED milk, and dried skim milk,
plus increasing consumer demand
for dairy products in this country,
make it desirable that milk produc-
ton in the United States be in
creased by to 8 percent, it is esti-
mated by Secretary of Agriculture,
Claude R. Wickard.
Most of the increase, he says,
should be made in production areas
which have access to milk-evaporat-
ing and cheese-making plants. He
points out also that a somewhat
larger than normal proportion of the
milk available for manufacture of
dairy products should be used for
cheese and evaporated milk.
Under average conditions, produc-
ton now in prospect might be
enough to take care of domestic
needs and the minimum export de-
mand now in prospect, Secretary
Wickard states. However, in view OF
the chance that pastures may be be-
low normal, that there may be heavy
utilization of feeds by other live
stock, and that export needs under
the Lend-Lease Act may increase,
it is desirable to increase total milk
production by to percent, in
stead of the or 8 percent increase
already in view.
Department officials point out that
increases in dairy herds beyond the

HEN is A PACKING PLANT

The needs of the democracies--
particularly Britian--are back of
Secretary Wickard's plea that ma
tional defense calls for more laying
hens and pullets and for better feed
ing of layers to encourage full pro-
duction. Also back of it is recogni-
ton that the hen is one of the most
effective of food professors. What
the hen does as factory is to con-
vert a considerable volume of grass
and grain into much smaller vol
ume of better and richer food ma
terial. The feed the hen eats goes
through the mill in a process of
selection and concentration and
comes out neatly packaged with
white and yolk made up Of high
quality protein with good allow
ance of the protective minerals and
vitamins.
With an eye to transport difficult
ties, man takes on the work where
the hen leaves off. Under transport
difficulties the drawbacks to eggs
are that they are somewhat perish
able and that they contain much
water. These difficulties can be
avoided by breaking the eggs in
specially equipped plants and re-
moving the water by drying the
product. This further concentrates
the food value in proportion to
shipping space. There is hardly any
other way, food authorities of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
emphasize, of packing so much first
quality food in such limited space.
Eggs dried i'm surplus producing
areas will allow an increase in pro-
duction elsewhere to provide more
eggs for the home market.
