and running races.
One of the popular features of
the fair this year is the Calf
Scramble which was inaugurated
last year with much success. The
idea originated at fairs in the
West,
Popular Drawing Card
"As a drawing card it is even
with anything else the fair has to
offer" one official remarked
In the first phase of the Calf
Scramble this year 20 members of
either All Clubs or the Future
Farmers of America, between the
ages of IA and 19 years, were put
inside an enclosed arena before
the grandstand.
At a signal 10 purebred Aber-
deem Angus steer calves were
shunted into the arena-and then
it was every man for himself and
his hOpedfoT calf, the 20 boys bat
tling the 10 calves.
To win a calf, each boy had to
rope and bring back to the judges
a plunging, bucking 300 pound
bundle of beef. Ten of the 20 boys,
of course, got only bruises and
bumps for their part in the show.
The ever-pOpular auto racing
meet will be the closing track
feature at the fair Saturday after
noon. Time trials are expected to
begin at 1870 P. M.

Excessive Summer
Heat Hard On Babies

especially important not to over
feed. Do not force the food if the
child is not hungry, say health au-
thOrities, and under no circum-
stances give the baby tastes of
adult food. Such practices are bad
at any time and in summer when
such foods as cantaloupe, peaches
and corn are in season, serious
illness may result.
Food spOilage is another hot
weather danger and milk slightly
turned or other food even a little
old is much more apt to upset a
baby than an adult, and very SER
iOus poisoning may result. Keep
baby's food in the ice box except
when actually pOrtioning out his
feeding, says the State Board of
Health.
Keeping both the crib and coach
covered with mosquito netting is
an important precautiOn during
hot weather when there are the
greatest number of flies and mos
quitOes. Flies spread such diseases
as diarThea, enteritis and typhoid
fever, and mosquitoes cause much
irritation.
Sanitation officials say to kill
all flies that get in the home with
swatters, fly sprays and fly paper,
but avoid fly pOisons, especially
around children. In addition,
homes should be screened tightly,
both windows and doors, and sew
age disposal units should be prop
erly constructed. 1t is particularly
important, also, to boil the baby's
bottles and nipples in order to ster-
iliZe them and keep them free of
contamination.
A healthy child will not get any
disease as quickly or as badly as
a child who is weak and poorly
nOurished Try to keep your child
healthy. Be sure his food and his
habits Of eating and sleeping are
right, that he is comfortably dress
ed and that he has enough fresh
air, sunshine and exercise. If your
baby has enough sleep, says the
State Board of Health, he will be
stronger and digest his food bet
ter.
