GOSSIP OF The ORANGES.

Honesty Grange of Morrill, won the
prize offered by the Belfast Age TO the
oranges of Waldo county in a literary
contest
Stockton Grange is in prosperous
condition. Seventeen members have taken
the initiatory degrees in the past Few
weeks, and there are still more proposals
for membership.
The literary contest in Harmony Grange
ia nroyinp a very successful feature, much
interest being manifested. Some really
excellent literary productions are brought
out, and proposals for membership are be-
ing received at each meeting.
Bay View Grange, Salisbury Cove, is
in fiourishing condition, the att ,ndance
increasing at every meeting. AT the last
meeting a harvest feast which was given
to mark the completion of the degree work
by five new members was much enjoyed
by all present.
There was no February meeting OF
Waldo County Grange on account of the
stormy weather during the week for which
it was assigned. The next meeting Will
DO with Northern Light Grange, Winter
port, Tuesday, March 9TH with the same
programme as dHHDuutch loi Sbi uoh
The York Pomona, which was held
with Saco Grange last month, coupled with
the extra efforts Of the members Of that
grange, has given new impetus, as the
following will prove. At recent meet
ing five members were rcinstated and
twelve new applicants were voted upon,
and the applicants were Initiated in the
first and second degrees, Saturday after
noon
At the last meeting Of Victor Grange,
Searsmont, O. d. Wilson read a very in
teresting paper giving the early history of
Scarsmont, beginning at the first town
meeting after the town was Incorporated
in 1914. Searsmont was at that time in
the county of Hancock. The records OF
those early meetings were very unique,
viz, 'dissolving the meeting The own
voted to raise fifty dollars for the support
of the Gospel, etc, etc.

CGaSGIGSS Vigilance Dur
ing August Heat,
Cholera Infaptum Takes on
a Deadlier Aspect,
Death Returns Pouring in at
Health Departments.
Fatal DiarrhOea Induced by I'M
proper Diet.
No Touch Of Summer Diseases
with LaClated Food.

Eternal vigilance, especially during
the heated season, is the price Of baby's
health aud very existence.
The fatalities in midsummer among
the infant population are nothing short
of appalling. The two causes are infan.
tile indigestion combined with a debili-
tating, high temperature. Or, in other
words, a diet untitled to baby's needs in
summer. The i'll effects Of the intense
summer heat arc far reaching. Many
little ones droop and pine, without appe-
tite or strength. Their usual diet fails
to noursh or more often is wholly re-
iected. In this weakened condition the
mistake of overlooking, that anxious
parents too often fall into, instead of
nouriShing the little ones, only brings
ON diarrhUa.
And diarrhn, with the temperature
high up, results in chlera infantum.
The extraordinary mortality from va
riOus forms of intantile Indigestion this
summer has led to careful inquiry, and
the best authority on the subject in the
large cities have freely expressed their
opinions.
Several Of the best known physicians
in Bennington were interviewed yester-
day. and the following question asked:
'In view of the large death rate this
summer Of infants in Bennington, what
do you recommend ?''
The general sentiment Of the profess
sion was voiced in the following state
ment from one of the most successful
successful practitioners among children.
He said:
There is nothing equal to lactated
food. and its use is fast becoming gener-
al among the profession. We find that
1t is retained on the stomach when all
other food is rejected or proves burden
some and a menace to the child's health.
For cholera infantum l find it most
valuable, and | generally prescribe its
use at once when called to attend such
cases. In almost every case where
mothers are unable to nurse their in
fants, end that lactated food answers
best of anything
Many happy mothers in Bennington
have used lactatcd food successfully
where everything else failed. This food
has kept their children shOng and well
during the dangerous summer season
and they have recommended 1t to their
friends, who have had the same happy
experience.

government Their average salary is
about l 800 lroners, equal to about $475
in American money.
While on the trip up the coast one gla-
cier some several hundred feet in extent
was passed, near to the steamer.
The whole trip through Norway was
one full of interest and enjoyment. Mr..
Lindloff says that one can travel in Nor
way cheaper than in any other country
in Europe. Returning to Hamburg, the
party sailed from Hamburg on the S. S.
NOurmamia of the Hamburg line. 4
brief stop was made at Cherbourg and
Havre for mails and passengers. The
balance of the trip was very unpleasant,
with fogs and head winds, until they ar
rived in New York Friday, the nineth,
glad to get home after trip full of in
terest and pleasure.
