CHRISTMAS TRADE
It is time for people to be think-
ing about their Christmas and hol-
iday purchases.
We have it in our power here in
town to do an important stroke of
business for our community, by

plies at home. We are going to

And there is no place where
can make the money go as far as in
our home community.
COMMUNITY DEFECTS
In every community there are
certain defects that are undesirable
and unnecessary. In some cities
and towns, the idea prevails that
such things can't be helped, But in
more progressive ones, people set
cut to work to get rid of these un-
desirable conditions, and they do
not content ‘themselves with ir-
responsible fault finding.
If a town has certain faults,
they either can or cannot be re-
moved. If they can’t it is best to
forget about them. If they can be
removed, then some organization
or influential people should take
the subject up and work for this
improvement. Anything within rea-
son, with all our bright and pro-
gressive people, can be accomplish-
ed here in town in the way of im-
provement.
WOLF, WOLF!
Every town needs to be remind-
ed constantly that effective public-
ity is based upon actual accomp-
lishment.
The town that is forever talking
about what it proposes to do rather
than about what it is doing will
soon be given the same credence as
the lad who kept yelling “Wolf,
Wolf.”
There is much talk between pro-
posal and accomplishment. It takes
a lot of talk to acquaint the people
with the merits of a proposal. It
takes a lot of talk to build up the
will to accomplish.
But the town that permits itself
to get into the “Wolf, Wolf” class-
ification will find its talk the fluen-
cy of vanity and the whistling for
absent courage.
STEALING AUTOS
Our constables here can make a
ten strike if they catch and punish
the young men in Mount Joy who
are stealing automobiles, using
them for joy riding and then aban-
doning them.
Two weeks ago the editor’s Essex
was stolen out of the garage, used
that night by three young men and
placed in the garage again.
Last week a man from the coun-
try came to town, parked his car
and later returned to find it missing.
He found his car that same night.
Elsewhere in the Bulletin may be
found an article telling of another
car that was stolen here and later
abandoned.

THE STREET NO PLAYGRNUND
Addressing the National Safety
Congress at Chicago, a 14-year-old
school boy from Providence, R. I..
told the delegates that it is too bad
that the children of today can’t
play in the streets as their parents
did. He is quite right.
In this respect the boys and girls
of populous cities today are worse
off than they were 25 years ago.
At that time, the street was a kind
of natural playground, where an
infinite number of kids played base
ball and foot ball and had no end
of fun. On many of the side
streets this was safe enough. But
then along came automobiles, and
turned this playground into a place
as dangerous as a railroad track.
Millions of city and town young-
sters today have no suitable place
in which to play.

A
OVER 700,000 CATTLE
TESTED FOR TUBERCULOSIS
bovine tuberculosis from Pennsyl-
vania herds is indicated by the fol-
lowing figures from the Bureau of
Animal Industry at Harrisburg.
714,331 cattle, 56 per cent of all
in the State, had been tested for
tuberculosis up to November 1.
Eleven counties—Butler, Camer-
on, Clearfield, Columbia, Crawford,
Indiana, Jefferson, Lawrence, Me-
Kean, Mercer and Potter—have
been declared “Modified accredited
counties’ which means that the dis-
ease has been reduced to less than
half of one per cent.
Eight other counties—Elk, Hunt-
ingdon, Monroe, Sullivan, Susque-
hanna, Tioga, Union and Venango—
had completed county tests but had
not qualified as “modified accredit-
ed counties” by November 1.
2,569 herds in 54 counties were
awaiting the test under the individ-
ual herd plan and 101 townships in
29 counties were awaiting the test
by the area plan on November 1.

A very large collection of in-
sects has been bequeathed to the
United States National Museum by
the late dean of the Philippine Col-
lege of Agriculture. It is considered
such an important addition to the
national collection that the Bureau
of Entomology of the United States
Department of Agriculture is co-
operating with the Museum in ar-
ranging for its safe transport to
Washington by sending a member
of its staff to pack and ship the
specimens properly. The collection
is reported to include more than
1.450 Schmitt boxes of pinned
specimens, a large quantity of un-
mounted material, and a very ex-
tended card index of references to
Indo-Malayan entomology. It con-
tains many types and hundreds of
species new to the national collect-

It Pays to Care for Pastures
It pays to take good care of pas-
tures. Pastures are like poor feeds
of any kind. Good pasture probab-
ly furnishes the cheapest source of
milk-making nutrients of any farm
crop. The cows harvest it them-
selves. Top-dressing pastures with
manure or commercial fertilizer is
usually profitable. It will induce
faster and heavier growth of the
grasses and will also increase their
lime and phosphorus content. It is
also good management to mow the
pastures occasionally to prevent the
weeds from reseeding themselves.
