 Chairman Mcdonald announced that a complete list of contributors would be made shortly. This ex- traordinary result" he said" could not have been accomplished without the full cooperation of all the mem bers of the committee
 On behalf of the committee, MT Mcdonald extended thanks to the children and teachers of Water bury schools who so generously con- tributed to the fund. He also ex- tended thanks to the executives and employees in local industries who helped make the campaign a suc- cess.

LocaI Group Leaves

Twenty local young men left early this morning for Hartford where they were to take final physical exams for the U. S. army. If they pass they will be sent immediately to an army camp.
 They met at the Beebe street school headquarters for the selec- tive division at 7:55 a. m. and were taken in private cars to Water bury. from where they went by bus to Hartford.
 There was one change made in those going. Eward Butkus of Quinn street was unable to go because he is confined to his home by grip. zigmund Korwotny, first on the re- placement list, took his place, and Raymond A. Meny of Cheshire was added to the replacement list.
 The ones who will make up the local quota of IA for the February l9 call have not yet been definitely selected. They will depend in part on how many from the present re- placement group of 10 are needed for the present call.

Soil Erosion Dangers
Noted By Washington

George Washington was one Of the
farmers of his day who knew of the
destructive results of soil erosion.
And his fellow Virginian, Thomas
Jefferson, tried contour fields and
hillside ditches-two measures wide
ly used to halt soil erosion for the
same purpose by farmers today.
Although erosion was most notice.
able in the southern states during
Washington's time and is probably
more severe there today than in most
other sections of the country, there
is evidence that people elsewhere
also worried about it. AS early as
1888, the Philadelphia Society for
Promoting Agriculture offered prize
awards for the best practical meth
DDS of recovering old quilted fields
to a hearty state" OF for the best
of planting them to trees if
they were too badly damaged for
further field use.
Milford chronicle., 1941-03-07

Toward the end of the last cen
tury, Delaware historians wrote
Before the Revolutionary War
Christiana was a place of much i'm
portance. 1t was the place where
articles for Philadelphia were ship
ped in vessels of considerable tom
mage ascending the Christian Greek
as far as Christiana. The creek was
much wider and deeper than lfowi it
having been caused to shrink the
last hundred years by the wasteful
and reckless destruction of trees
along and near its course. White
Clay Creek at one time. was. naYi-
gable for small vessels a mile OF
two above Stanton"
Richard S. Snyder, Delaware Soil
Conservation Service project leader,
says that today there are a million
and half farm families, OF one
quarter of the total farm families in
the United States living in 410 soil
conservation districts.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

SIGNS OF SPRING

Sulfur and molasses used to be as
sure a sign of spring as the first
robin Old timers learned that this
mixture was a cure for the lack OF
pep which occurred to them in Feb
ruary and March. Now we realize
that iron rich molasses was prob
ably responsible for the effective
ness of this tonic.
Winter meals are likely to be low
in iron rich foods. Green leafy vege-
tables are not so plentiful in win
ter as in spring and summer, eggs
are frequently double their summer
price, and as a state we have not
vet learned to use enough dark
bread and cereal for that to be a
reliable winter source of iron.
The body stores iron in the liver.
Summer meals which have been
plentiful in fresh vegetables and
eggs may have stored a large enough
supply to last q little while on
diet which contains much less of
these iron rich foods. After few
months this stored supply is gone
and q general laziness and lack OF
ambition may occur. !
A Variety Of Foods Contain Iron
In the spring we begin to crave
those things which have not been
so plentiful. Spring greens are here
to satisfy this craving. Serve greens
often, cooked, In a mixed green
spring salad, in sandwiches.
Eggs have already started their
spring decline in price. Begin now
to use more eggs for breakfast. ON
elets or ham and eggs for supper,
eggs in salads and in sandwiches.
Some iron rich foods are with us
In plenty the year around. Prunes
are very rich in iron and are cheap,
too. Hot cooked oatmeal and cooked
wheat cereal are most satisfying
these crisp March mornings. Liver,
pork. beef, lamb. chicken
d. the expensive calf, is another re-
liable year round supply of iron.
Check the meals which you are
planning for your family to be sure
hat they contain several of these
ron rich foods every day.
