X The School Lunch Aids Nutrition Of Children Clemson, Oct. 15.—“The school lunch, while it alone cannot cor rect long-standing malnutrition, can play an important role in im mediate improvement of the food intake of school children and in the nutrition education program which should have far-reaching and lasting effects.” This statement by Miss Ada M. Moser, home economist of the South Carolina Experiment Sta tion of Clemson College, is the key to the results of a study of the growth and nutrition of children in two ruraL elementary schools in Pickens county. South Carolina. The results of the study are re ported in Experiment Station Bul letin 359, Nutritional Condition of Children in Relation to School Lynches in Two. South Carolina Rural Communities. Copies of the bulletin may be obtained from county agents’ offices or from Clemson College. The following summary state ments on results give significant facts of the study, one school serving a complete hot lunch, the Dther a partial lunch of foods hat could be served without cook ing: A higher proportion of the com plete lunch group than of the partial lunch group made unusu ally good gains In height. This seems especially significant since most of the children were short for their age compared with Am erican children measured recently in a large-scale study. At the end of the period an experienced pediatrician found that a greater proportion of the complete lunch group had the outward physical signs of good nutrition. A somewhat larger proportion of the complete lunch group than of the partial lunch group improved the trend of their physical growth and development, and a smaller proportion of them lost ground during the period of study. The complete lunch group had maintained hemoglobin levels in spite of increased demand for blood-building materials during growth, whereas the other group had hemoglobin values signifi cantly lower at the close than at the beginning of the study.

Largest employer was the War Department with 1,608 place ments.

The practice provides for estab lishing a satisfactory cover of small grain seeded in the fall of 1945 and the growth not har vested for grain or hay, the $1.53 payment to be made under the 1946 AAA program. The specifica- ions provide that the land should je uniformly covered (a good uniform stand) with a growth cf small grain from which a. reason able tonnage of forage could be harvested. “Where the specifications are met, payments will be made if the small grain is either grazed or turned under, but no payments will be made if the grain is cut for hay or grain,” says J. M. Napier, Clemson extension AAA agent. County AAA offices, county AAA committeemen, and county agents of the Extension Service can give details. X More REA Funds Ready For S. C. Farm People Clemson, Oct. 20.—There are 80,454 South Carolina farms still without central station electric service, according to a recent statement received from the U. S. Rural Electrification authority by the Clemson Extension Service. This is 58.5 per cent of South Carolina farms, and towards e- lectrifying these farms REA has allocated $2,386,636 which Ihay be made in loans to qualified bor rowers for rural electrification during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1946. This sum is the state’s share in half of the $200,000,000 fund au thorized for REA loans during the current fiscal year. Under the federal REA Act, each state may share in the allocated funds in the proportion which its unelec trified farms bears to the total number of unelectrified farms in the United States. In addition to loans which may be made from the allocated funds, South Carolina borrowers may ob tain loans from the unallocated funds of $100,000,000 for the cur rent fiscal year. “Electrification of American farms is one of our major post war tasks,” says REA Chief Claude R. Wickard. “Despite the amazing progress of the last ten years more than half of our farms in the United States do not yet en joy the comforts and conveni ences made possible by electricity The demand for service among these farm people is increasingly insistent.” The estimates announced by Mr. Wickard showed that 41.5 per cent of South Carolina farms now have central station electric service.
