According to the National Society
for the Prevention of Blindness one-
half of the blindness is preventable.
Science has now discovered all of
majo
public spirited organizations as the
National Society to educate the pub-
lic in prevention. To minimize the
hazards to sight, follow these simple
rules:
Read with a clear, good light fall-
ing from above your left shoulder.
Hold your book or paper about 14
inches from your eyes.
Always read with your head up.
Keep book or paper clean; a soil-
ed page is hard to read.
Avoid books printed indistinctly,
in small type, or on glossy paper.
Rest your eyes frequently.
if your eyes ache, or if you have
trouble in seeing things distinctly,
have your eyes examined.
GOOD SENSE IN SHOES
“A firm foundation is just as es-
sential for the human body as it is
for a building. Judging from the
crippled feet
have brought upon
of this rather obvious fact
a to be justified. In most in-
stances the primary cause has been
a false pride or a too exacting ad-
herence to the mode of the hour,”
states Doctor Theodore B. Appel,
Secretary of Health.
“While it is perfectly proper to
choose shoes from the aesthetic
standpoint, utility and comfort
should in no way be sacrificed in|
To become ardent foi-
shoes that are too

they may be in other particulars, is
equally bad if not worse.
“If people could be made to real-
ize that nothing ie as likely to take
the rainbow out of life more last-
ingly than painful and injured pedal
extremeties, the now too general
favor for the wrong shoe could be
definitely lessened.
“In the final analysis it matters
physically very little whether most
ts exactly fit. But it does
make a successful effort to have
shoes completely adapted tc the in-
dividual foot. However, many people
are over-scrupulous

are now comparatively thoughtless
on this most important subject.
“Shoes should be comfortable and POSU
of good appearance. If even a slight
rtion of either must be sacrificed,
all means favor the comfort. Poor
and feet make a sorry vehi-
cle for the body. And remember that
“to obtain the fullest satisfaction out
of life, much unimpeded natural lo-
comotion is essential.”
FORTY THOUSAND BENEFITED IN
TUBERCULOSIS SANITORIA
A conservative anal of the
discharge records in the sanitoria at
Mont Alto, Cresson and Hamburg
indicates that a number of adults in
excess of 25,000 have been sent back
to their homes since the inception
of their work, definitely “Cetter,”
of them a great deal better,
of them with a new knowl-
how they should live, and
eat in order that the work
ration might move along in
their home environment.
and care in the Sanitoria in which
they are received—Mont Alto and
Cresson—is a a that is vastly

under the headings “arrested, quies-
cent or improved” among the young-
sters, runs at a much higher r-
- tion than does that of the adults.
From 800 to 900 now pass through
these institutions annually, and a
total number of 15,000 who have
been materially benefitted by the
Sanitorium life would not be placing
the results at an extravagant figure.
If the statement quoted above is
true, then the work of the State De-
partment of Health Sanitoria, com-
mencing in 1912, can justify the ex-
penditures made through it by the
tax payers of the Commonwealth, in
presenting a total of 40,000 adults
and children who have been helped
and benefitted by their stay in some

| ideas change. And the garden, just
| as one's dress, should be kept up-to-

once done is done forever will not
work. And who wants it so?

| The age at which most pullets be* |

months; some lay at four and one-
half to five months, and others not
until eight or nine months of age. |
This means that if a 50 per cent
egg yield is wanted in November

March or April; May hatched pullets |

—In selecting the site for the]

| should be taken in locating the gar-

| pant food.
| Good soil is essential to a success-
| ful garden. It is often possible to
| select a site a little distance from the
house that” will yield better results,
| with less labor, than one closer to
the house with unfavorable soil. As
| a rule, though, it is desirable to have
| the garden fairly close to the house.
| A sandy soil, on land that slopes
| gently to the south is desirable, for
| generally it will “warm up” early
‘and enable the gardener to plant and |
| harvest early crops. 2,
| Good drainage is very desirable. A
| good fence around the garden is oft-

| the crops from farm animals, includ-
| ing poultry.
| No amount of cultural care will |

etable garden and in arranging the
| Careful consideration should be
| given to the number of hours of ex- |
re to sunshine each day. As a
rule, foliage crops such as lettuce
‘and spinach do fairly well in partial |
| shade, but should have not less than |
three hours of sunshine per day. |
| Plants which ripen fruit, such as |
tomatoes, require more sunshine, and |
should have a minimum of five hours

FOREST OWNERS
The farmers of Pennsylvania are
the largest single group of forest
owners, according to records compil-
ed by the department of forests and
waters. To them belong 4,000,000
acres, or almost one-third of the for-
est land of the State. Of this amount
2,500,000 acres are in farm woodlots
and 1,500,000 acres in mountain
land. Applications have been receiv-
ed from the farmers throughout the
