in the eyes of newborn babies.
One of the more recent advances
has been the use of the broad
range antibiotic Terramycin for
this purpose.
Medical specialists have found
Terramycin free from the side
effects of silver nitrate, hitherto
routinely applied to a newborn
baby's eyes to prevent infection.
The drug, tested on 1,700 in
fants at Maimonides Hospital in
Brooklyn, saved two out of three
babies from "pink-eye" or con-
junctivitis, according to a medical
report.
In laboratory tests, Terramycin
has also proved more effective
than silver nitrate in killing the
micro-organisms that are the COM
monest cause Of eye infections in
the newborn.

Hungarian Aid Is
Quota Of $474.00

Madison County's quota of the
Red Cross Fund for Hungarian
Relief has been set at $474 acc
ording to Murray Lohr, Madison
County Red Cross Chapter Chair
man. Lohr said the Hungarian aid
has already been supplied by the
Red Cross, and now must be re-
placed by contributions.
He urged Madison County resi-
dents to join in the effort to aid
in making the funds readily re-
placable in the National Red Cross
Treasury.
Lohr pointed out that contribu-
tions may be mailed to Madison
County Chapter, American Red
Cross, London. From there they
will be transmitted to the proper
agency handling the Hungarian re-
fugees and the many suffering
people in Hungary.
Every step is being taken to
keep the public informed of the
Red Cross activity in the refugee
and inside-Hungary program of
aid.

Many Farms Enter
Losing Season As
Fields Lie Bare

Farmland is now entering 1.-The
most dangerous time of the year"
for erosion of the soil, according to
Austin L. Patrick, Jr., U. S. Soil
Conservation Service. y
He estimates many tons of rich
soil are lost to Wood County farms
during danger period" which ex-
tends from harvest time until June
of the following year. During this
time, land left bare to wind and
rain is particularly vulnerable to
"raindrop bombing" According to
Patrick, this vulnerability is in
creased in this county by the high
clay composition of the soil. There
fore, soil conservationists recon-
mend no field lie bare and unpro-
tected during the months specified.
Fred Haskins, who operates his
fathers Wood County farm, meets
this problem by planting ryegrass
at the last cultivation of corn. The
thick green cover of his ryegrass

the railroads to get sound footing, can't think
of more judicious expenditure
But let's look at the ''why' behind the Centras
improved performance last year, Here are couple of
examples I've singled out from the annual report:
Closer cost cOntroS-l955 was the first year in the
companys history that the entire supervisory staff was
called in to help make the budget AS you'd expect this
resulted in closer controls And allowed the Central
to make accurate projection ofthcir cash position
for the entire year
Improved maintenance The report shows that the
Ccnra's repair shops turned out twice as much
work in 1855 as 954at less cost You see these shops
were consolidated into efficient production lines.
What lies ahead? As interpret the annual report the
company will make its biggest strides in these

themselves quickly out Of savings, and also speed up

menting with two new lightweight trains-The Aerotran

sagging, money-losng railroad passenger traffic to
dynamic and growing business.
This report shows how, at the end of 1885, the members
Of the New York Central board of directors and Allegheny
Corporation owned almost Onequarer of all the shares
outstanding, giving them the best incentive to build for
the future And not only for their profit but for all their
cO-ShareowncrS, from the man who owns one share.
Every fact and figure on which I've based this brief
analysis is available to you in the 1855 New York Central
Railroad Company Annual Report | think investors
employees, customers and students will find the report
fascinating and informative.
also feel that you'll probably be as impressed as
was with the railroads philosophy Of doing business
The president Alfred E. Pcrlman, put it extremely well
when he wrote, "If to consider the interest of
any group at the expense of the Others we should be
failing in obligation TO ALL TO the eventual dcrment of

for the program have projected gives consideration

also asked that the operator of

ing is that if the cafeteria is
opened again it will be for county
