is a relatively inexpensive method and 1t is
effective. The city counci and the county
board of supervisors made preliminary joint
efforts TO acquire land and a bulldozer to
institute this system. However, nothing has
come of it. In view of the health department
warning of this week it is vitality necessary
to revive these effoTts-and to carry them to
quick completion.
The war is over now and certainly with
the high municipal priority in the acquiring
of surplus materials the city of Pascagoula
and jackson county can get the equipment,
at relatively inexpensive cost, to institute a
system of disposal that does not infest the
city with a plague of flies and threaten the
public health.
The health department recommended
spraying the dump with oil and weekly burn
ings as a temporary and emergency health
measure until the fill system can be ~institut-
ed. The city police department has been in
structed by the council to do so, but has been
prevented thus far by wet weather which has
soaked the pile. When the weather clears up
and we get a day or two of sunshine thisb burn
ing should be done by all means, and not just
once but weekly, as the health department
recommends. 1t is vitality necessary that
burning be regarded only as a temporary
measure. The continuous fill system is need
ed here and ought to be instituted in short
order. The public health is seriously involved.

Illinois Strip Mine
Law Unconstitutional

The Illinois strip mine law has
been declared unconstitutional, both
as an invasion of private property
without benefit to public welfare
and in being unreaSonably discrim-
inatory. Judge Phillip ]. Finnigan of
the Circuit Court of Cook County
ruled that the state of Illinois is,
'enjoined from enforcing the Strip
Mine Act and that said Act is un-
constitutional, is upholding the
findings of the Master in Chancery.
The Act, passed by the Illinois
legislature in 1943, required leveling
of coal strip mine lands to approx
mlately original contour 1t has been
under injunction by the coal opera
tors of that state since its enactment
In announcing his findings, Master
in Chancery, Phillip H. Mitchell, held
that leveling of the strip mine banks
was not specified to growth; that
if could not be used for row crop
farming after leveling, and that the
coal companies have improved the
strip areas.
Expert witnesses testified", the
Master in Chancery stated in his
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1946-11-28

finding, that leveled lands were
compacted; that most of the rock
and shale and boulders remained on
or close to the surface of the land;
that in leveled areas water does not
drain through a porous soil, but
forms gullies and produces mud
flats. These dry and crack in dry
weather and lead to erosion of the
soil"
Unleveled strip banks were very
porous, he held, "and grew trees and
grasses amazingly fast, He also
found the strip mine method to be
particularly economic means of
recovering coal, where the coal
seam is within forty to seventy-five
feet of the earth's surface, mas
much as there is no waste of coal
seam to provide additional wall
support as in staff mines, nor is
there the ever present danger to
the miners that necessarily pro-
Ceeds from shaft mining.

Good Start Needed
In Raising Chicks

A good start puts the poultryman
quite way along the road to sue
cess, is the claim made by Profess
sor E. L. Dakan, poultry husbandry
department, Ohio State University,
who declares the only way to get
a good start in raising new crop
of pullets is to buy good chicks.
He asserts that no Ohio farmers
can afford to buy bargain chicks
but he also warns that a high price
tag is not always a guarantee of
value. His guess on a fair price for
chicks in 1916 is Is to 18 cents for
unseXed chicks and about double
that price for sexed pullet chicks.
Other tips on buying offered by
Professor Dakan are to make sure
the chicks are free from pullorum
when bought. Ohio has plenty of
hatcheries which test their breed
ing flocks for disease and which
ale accredited if their disease con-
troll work satisfies field supervisors
Chicks should come from parents
with good production records.
Brooder houses should be cleaned
and disinfected before chicks are
placed in them. The brooding equip
nent should be tested to make sure
it is in good condition, and 4-inch
litter should be put on the floor.
The litter must be kept dry, espec-
tally around the feeders and water
fountains.
Feed costs are the largest single
expense in raising a pullet flock.
Too much feed in the feeder is al
most certain to cause wasted feed,
SO Professor Dakan advises plenty
Of feeders kept only partially filled
Good outdoor range will lower feed
costs and help control disease and
parasites.
Any indication of loss of appetite
or of droopiness when chicks are
three or four weeks old should warn
the poultTyman to start the sulpha-
quanidine treatment for coccidiosis.
The chemical is mixed with dry
mash in the proportion of one half
pound to 100 pounds of mash Treat
ment must begin promptly.

u. S. Savings Bonds
Drive Gets Under Way

Armistice Day marked the kick
off of an intensified U. S. Savings
Bond sales campaign throughout the
nation in which officials expressed
the hope that returns would top
$1,600,000,0
While no cash goal was posted for
the campaign, slated to extend from
Armistice Day through Pearl Har-
Dor Day, it was estimated that the
above mentioned sales would carry
the total national investment for
Series E F and C Savings Bonds
for 1916 over the So billion mark.
National Sales of Series E, F and
G Bonds in October totaled $519.-
371,0OO, running the total for the
first ten months of 1916 to $685.
$4,000.
Ohio sales of E, F and G's for
October was $3O,l96,481.25 and the
sales total for these series during
1916 to date was $398,241,481.

Production of fertilizer has in
creased but the world shortage is
so severe distribution of the 1947
supply may be more difficult than
was distribution of the u. S. supply
in wartime
About 100000 exservicemen are
working on U. S. farms and they
have replaced imported foreign
workmen as we'll as a large group
or prisoners of war. Total farm
workers on July l was about per
cent higher than for the same date
in 1945.
August should be a good month
to shop for peaches. The harvest
from North Carolina, Virginia, Ill
inois, Kentucky, West Virginia, Ind
lana, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Michigan will be completed or
kegun during this month. The 1916
national crop of peaches is the larg-
est ever grown but Ohio has a light
crop.
A new milk marketing agreement
mas Deen proposed Dy Lne u. =. DepL
of Agriculture for approval by pro-
ducers and distributors in the Col
umbus area. The agreement would
set maximum prices at $4 a hun
dredweight for Glass l milk, $3.75
for Class II, and $3.50 for Glass III
Glass l and Glass II prices would
advance from the present level in
l5-cent brackets up to the maximum
as prices for milk to be manufac-
tured increase.
Dairy herds can be freed from
n mastitis but prevention of the dis
ease is easier than its cure. Although
the disease is caused by bacteria,
injuries to the cows udder or teats
appear to provide conditions re-
CURED for bacterial infection. Too
little bedding, short or narrow
stalls, and prolonged mechanical
milking are common causes of udder
injuries. Cows with mastitis should
be milked last.

Leaping Lee from Detroit Now Wanfs Louis-Conn
 Alternate Spot
By Sid Feeder

NEW YORK. Feb. 23.-Now that he has knocked off light-heavy- weight Champion Gus Lesnevich, Leaping Lee Oma came up today with the idea of being designated as alternate" for Billy Conn in the June heavyweight title fight with Joe Louis.
 The Detroit Thumper who fights like a fellow chasing flies figures this alternate idea is good thing. Suppose he supposed, something should happen to Billy If Mike Jacobs makes me the alternate, I'd be ready to go ill a minute"
 Along with tn;s. Leaping Lee is aiming his galloping, hand-at-the- sides style at an invasion of Eng land against British Boss Bruce Woodcock as well as a September shot against the Louis-Conn win ner, infact, about the only thing m tile whole situation that Lee wasn't happy about today was that he gave Gus a lousy birthday pre- sent"
 He delivered the gift personally j,l Madison Square Garden last night on Gus 30th birthday. It was a right hand poke which opened a gash so deep under Gus left eye, in the fourth round of their sched- uled 10 round go, that the State Athletic Commi sion physician wouldn't let him come out for the fifth. It was definitely not the friendly way to help anybody cele- brate birthday, as the l6,087 cus- tcmers, who paid $74,682 to see 1t happen, will attest.
