Page Pour Friday, November 21, 1917 The Cedarville, O. Herald Wilmington FarmerHasNew ComDryer Fred Cowman and his son, Fred Cowman, Jr.s are talcing no chances on losing their 7,000 hushei 1947 corn crop because of its high moisture content at the time of harvest. The Cowmans have installed two electrically- driven,oil heated dryers, one at each end of their 105 feet long corn crib. These dryers have re­ duced the moisture content of the com from 30; percent to 18 percent after ten days o f con­ stant operation. Agriculture ex­ perts agree that ear corn can be stored safely when its moisture content is 1 8 r{ or less. The corn crib is 105 feet long, 12 feet wide and 12 feet high, .A five feet square air duct, made of concrete block, runs length-wise at the back o f the crib. The back half of the crib, not covered by the air duct, is eoveivll with build­ ing paper to keep the air from escaping. The electric dryers are portable and are connected to each end o f the air duct back o f the crib. Each dryer has a 5 H. P. electric motor which drives a 34 inch fan, forcing 16,000 cubic feet o f oil-heated air at one inch static pressure into the air duct and through the corn. The warm air picks up moisture from the com as it passes through it, thus reducing its moisture content. This is one of the first electric corn dryers installations, using preheated air, in this part of Ohio, although there are many electri­ cally-driven corn dryers using un­ heated air. The Cowmans operate a 400 acre farm located on R. R. 4, "Wil­ mington, on which they feed out 500 head o f hogs and sixty head o f beef cattle annually. Besides the hogs and cattle, they raised 140 acres of corn, 110 acres of wheat and 50 acres o f hay this year. According to Fred Cowman, Jr., they plan to use their new port­ able electric dryers fo r drying small grains and hay next year. Herman E. Murphy, rural repre­ sentative of the Dayton Power and Light company assisted the Cowmans in planning their elec­ tric corn drying installation. ON THE SCHOOL SCENE Continued from Page One game—both in baskets and “ sportsmanship ” . . . . Would you like to know bow many twins we have in our) school? After cheeking the rec­ ords in the home rooms, from the enrollment o f 434, we find that we have only two sets o f twins. These ar.e; Joan and Jimmy Re Vere in the first grade, and Jerry and Larry Gillaugh, Jerry being in fourth grade and Larry in the fifth. An unusual case, however, is found in the Clifton Grade School, where three sets o f twins are enrolled in the first Shows Fred Cowman, Jr., farm operator, Fred Cowman, Sr., farm owner, and Herman E. Murphy, rural representative of the Day- ton Power and Light company standing beside the new electric corn-drying installation located on the Cowman farm near Wil­ mington. The crib contains 7,000 bushels: of ear corn. grade; Sally and Sue Faber, Joe and Jaqueline Robinson, and Re­ becca and Richard Rollins. What a nice time their teacher must have recognizing her l i t t l e charges, especially Sally and Sue Faber, who are identical in ap­ pearance. In this case, her only aid is that Sue is a little shy and her sister, Sally, is quite the opposite. Together with our own twins, these from Clifton should make an interesting group fo r our upper grades in future years. The Voice Of The Student Winter, to many people, is the most beautiful season of the year. The first snowfall, with every­ thing covered up by nature's own beautiful blanket, the many unique designs o f the snowflakes as they light up4n the window­ sills,—gives you an effect which takes you “ out o f this world.” With winter almost here, many C. H. S. students are looking for­ ward to the first heavy snowfall, and the ice-laden pond, frozen hard enough for them to go skat­ ing; Or maybe some are old fash­ ioned, and sleigh-riding takes their fancy. Many people do not want win­ ter to come, but whether.we like it or not, it will be here some­ time soon I hope it snows today! How about you?

BIG REDS OPEN Continued from Page One Cedarville (37) Beattie, f _______ Charles, f ___„ __ Vest, c -------------- HealthDept Mergerwith FayetteNear Unanimous approval was given last Thursday evening by mem­ bers o f the Greene and Fayette county boards o f health and of­ ficials o f the state%ealth depart­ ment to a proposed plan whereby the administrative duties o f Dr. Gordon E. Savage, Xenia and Greene county public health com­ missioner, would, be extended to include Fayette'county. The meeting, called to obtain the reactions o f all parties con­ cerned was cond'icted by Dr. John Porterfield, state health director. James Bauman, legal advisor for the state health department, also attended. ________ Others present were three members o f the Greene county health board, Dr. W. A . Ham­ mond, Dr. A. D. Ritonour and Jack E. Velzy; four members of the Fayette County board, and Dr. Savage. An official meeting at which formal action will be taken will be held soon, Dr. Savage said. Dr. summary o f tentative decisions Porterfield, who is preparing a arrived at during the preliminary discussions, will send his report to the local representatives be­ fore that time. Sharing o f Green county’s health chief waas first proposed by the Fayette board which has been without a health commis­ sioner since the resignation o f Dr, Brant A . Welch last July 1. The proposed setup would not affect the autonomy o f the separ­ ate organizations, Dr. Savage said. Both, the Greene and Fayette boards would continue their in­ dividual operations, the three de­ partments concerned sharing pay­ ment o f Dr. Savage’s salary. He added that the cooperative endea­ vor could be dissolved . at any time i f it proved unsatisfactory to any y>f the departments con­ cerned. Dr. Savage- is of the opinion the proposed arrangement would be mutually beneficial to all con­ cerned. Both counties will get more service, he said, because the new administrative setup would make it possible to obtain mar.* health departm# specialists fo r both counties. He said the co­ operation o f neighboring health departments under* similar ar-~ rangements was a “ m i d e m trend.” The health chief also expressed the hope that all clincs now in operation in Greene county could be moved into the Greene Memo­ rial hospital upon completion o f that project. He suggested the possibility that a pre-natal and post-natal clinic could be estab-, lished there, a project which, it would be impossible to establish without hospital facilities. Dr. Porterfield remarked dur­ ing hj,s visit here that the local county health department was one o f the three best in the state, Dr. Savage said. G. F.

S. public health service from Jan­ uary 1942 until the summer of 1946 revealed 24,000 cases of TB. Seventy percent of these cases were in the minimal stage; 25 percent in a moderately advanced I stage; 5 percent were in a f a r . advanced stage. Approximately one third of thes cases were con­ sidered “ active.” These figures do not include “tyispiciohs” cases which are constantly being check­ ed. The figures just released by the state health department re­ veal that in 1946 tuberculosis is still the first in all causes of death to persons from ages 18 to 34. Dr. Savage, health com­ missioner of Greene county stated “ With this information at hand, we have redoubled our efforts in tuberculosis work in this age group. TB case finding is a co­ operative job involving the indi­ vidual, the official and voluntary agencies working together.” County Schools Have High Attendance The Greene county school at­ tendance record hit a new peak during the first six weeks o f the new 1947-48 t e r m . Only one school in the county had less than 96 percent fo r the entire period, Clifton and Sugarcreek were high with over 97 percent.
