COUNTY AGENT URGES USE OF TESTED CHICKS Farmers Who Ignored Factor Lost Most Last Year, Abbott Says. Probably the most important re - quirement for farmers to watch to reduce poultry flock losses is to purchase or hatch blood tested, diseasefree chicks, according to Horace E. Abbott, county agricultural agent. In several Indiana counties last year farmers ignored this factor. A--a result they lost about twice as many chicks as those who had purchased "clean chicks," he said. "Clean chicks” is the term used in the current Grow Heaithy Pullet campaigns to designate chicks that have been tested for Fullorum disease. This campaign has been inaugurated in Marion County by Purdue University's extension staff in co-operation with Mr. Abbott to reduce losses in the county's $600,000 poultry business. Effective Treatment Unknown "So far no effective treatment for Pullorum infected chicks is known. Since the disease is often carried from the parent stock through the eggs to the chick, it is a safeguard to secure chicks from flocks which have been properly tested,” the agent said. Furthermore, eggs from tested stock should not be incubated in the same incubator with eggs from untested flocks, he said. A bulletin entitled "How to Handle the Brood Sow and Her Litter” has been published by the Purdue University Department of Agricultural Extension and may be obtained at Mr. Abbott’s office. 400 Droves Issued The paper is the result of the study of 400 Indiana droves. John Schwab of the Purdue animal husbandry extension staff has found the heaviest losses of pigs occur from farrowing to weaning time. The first step to prevent losses concerns the condition and health of the sows far in advance of farrowing. This and other factors ar p covered fully in the bulletin, ~.±r. Abbott said.

‘Congress’ of School 16 Really Works; There’s No Place for Thumb-Twiddlers

Teachers, Pupils Enthuse Over Novel Project of Group. BY JOE COLLIER Two laws have been passed by the Congress of the assembled "states'' of School 16 at 1402 W. Market-st, and the representatives are anticipating a little political trouble with ; their constituencies. One of the laws provides that no pupil shall arrive on the school yard before 8 in the morning or 1 in the ; afternoon; the other that no pupil > living within 10 blocks of the school shall have luncheon at the school unless through special dispensation. Because pupils are fond of arriving before class time and playing in the school yard—sometimes to their own harm—it is probable that the representatives may have more than they can do to repair their political fences before another election. Court May Get Question Or someone is likely to appeal t.he law to the Supreme Court, composed of four teachers. There are two lower judicial bodies—the junior and senior courts, each composed of three pupils and two teachers. If the courts rule that the law Is unconstitutional, that's all there is to it. The pupils govern themselves at School 16, through a system as nearly like that of the slate and Federal governments as it has been possible to devise. Principal L. E. Hall, believing that the pupils should be represented in their government, appointed a committee of teachers to draw up a constitution. This was done. There was a constituitonal convention, composed of two pupil-delegates from each room. Under the guidance of Mrs. Era Kinney, social studies teacher, the constitution was adopted. Classes Choose Names Classes then voted on what name they would adopt and be known by in the government. They could pick any state name not already chosen. The constitution provides for election by ballot of a president and vice president and the election by states of two senators and three representatives each. The president picks a cabinet, and its members are chairmen of various committees. Before a charge of misdemeanor can be brought before the courts, the committee qualified to rule on it must hear the evidence. There are no thumb-twiddlers as in the Congress of the United States because the school group is busy every time it meets passing laws and setting the plan into operation. Pupils Are Interested Already, Mr. Hall says, there is a genuine interest in the project, and the courts are a little restless to get into session. Teachers, too, are convinced the program is for the best interests of the school and will help fit the pupils for life in organized society more than any other single school project. Each room has studied state government and has organized on that pattern. And while the congress of School 16 will not have to wrestle with bonus, relief and inflationary problems, it will have its stormy sessions. The Supreme Court never will have to solve a TVA decision, but in its way it will have some hairline problems. Mr. Hall says it has put anew zest in school life for most of the pupils. Article seven of the Constitution says the Constitution can be amended by a majority vote of both houses. Wait till that comes up! I. O. O. F. to Confer Degree Meridian Lodge No 480, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, is to meet at 8 tomorrow night at 29 S. Delaware-st. The second degree is to be conferred on a class, Herbert Wright, noble grand, said. Save Money On Quality Paint ADVANCE PAINT CO.’S FACTORY STORE •SOI X. Capitol A to. Ri. 1774
