Do Women Work Too Much?

The set phrase just now among ply
sicians when it's woman patient is:
"Oh, you're working too hard" The
words have become a shibboleth in
the medical professionalism treating
a woman. Grip, typhoid, pneumonia
1t really doesn't matter what the NAL
ady is nor how little dependent II is
upon previous working conditions-all
the doctor does is to take account OF
her with overwork. There have been
cases of women down with smallpox
to whom the medical man has simply
said: "Ah, you're working too hard
that's the trouble with you. You need
to take a good rest. A good rest will
bring you all right again."
The women doctors are just rs bad
about this as the men. 1t is apparently
the professional" attitude, first, to
deny women the right to work, and.
second, that all the ills of her flesh is
heir to are due to work. The working
woman, pure and simple, does not en-
Joy a monopoly of the set phrase,
though to her, Of course, it is applied
with extra vigor.
Every variety of woman, from the
society woman and the housewife
down to the maid of all work, gets but
the one diagnosis from her doctor
you've been OVERRIDING 1t and must
take rest" The phrase is profes-
sionally fashionable, and every doctor
of them falls into line with it-just as
short time ago when another craze
was on you couldn't have a cold in
your head without some physician
wanting to perform an operation for
appendicitis.

Saving the Pear Tree.

The tree that had borne bushels of
fine pears was stricken with blight.
Six ends of limbs were brown. The
women folks of the family were de-
pendent on that 15-year-old standard
tree for pears to eat and to preserve.
They diagnosed the case. and by the
application of domestic remedies saved
the tree. Two years have passed
since, and no signs of blight and no
diminution Of fruit
First the affected limbs were sawed
off about two feet from the tips. and
burned. The ground was raked and
chopped of every blade of grass and
weed. A trench about foot deep, In
a circle. all around, and as far out as
the shade of the limbs extended. was
spaded out and filled in with wood ash
es and old dried dairy compost. The
trunk of the tree was scrubbed with
the waste kitchen water. strong suds
of gold dust washing powder. every
few days. During July and August the
trench was watered twice or three
times q week. and wood ashes scat
tered over the ground under the tree
once each month. This routine,
whether sustained by science, had the
effect of bringing the family favorite
pear tree back to it's normal condition,
and for two years past has so con-
tinued.

Poultry Notes.

Season soft food with salt It sharp.
ems appetite and aids digestion.
Hens will pay well for table scraps.
1t is wasteful to feed them to mon
grel dogs and cats.
Why are fowls the most profitable
creatures farmer keeps? Because for
every grain they give a peck.
Before you give sick fowl liquid
medicine, be sure that its nostrils are
clear. or it may be strangled to death.
Litter in which there is tough. wiry
hay is not safe to put on the scratching
floor. If eaten it causes cross-pound
conditions.
Keep record of both your sales and
expenses, and don't forget to give the
hens credit for what you consume in
your own family.
Much time is wasted on farms by
the men folks that might be made prof
liable by caring for the poultry and pro-
ducing winter eggs.
Poultry raising has many advan-
tages in that there is always a small
income from the beginning. from the
eggs and chickens, old and young.
To renew the vitality of flock 1t is
not necessary to cross-breed and make
them mongrels. Better get males of a
different strain or family of the same
variety.
There is certain time when poul.
try that are being fattened are just
ripe and fit to kill. If left even for a
few days beyond this period, they lose
