.PITIFUL SIGHT WITH ECZEMA

"A few days after birth we noticed
an infiamed spot on our baby's hip
which soon began spreading until
baby was completely covered even In
his eyes, ears and scalp. For eight
weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot. He could not have a stitch of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced 1t chronic eczema. He is
a very able physician and ranks with
the best in this locality, nevertheless,
the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh SO rapidly that we be-
came alarmed and decided to try Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment.
mot until commenced using Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment could we tell
what he looked like. as we dared not
wash him, and had been putting one
application after another on him. On
removing the scale from his head the
hair came off, and left him entirely
bald, but since we have been using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment he has
as much hair as ever. Four weeks
after we began to use the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
cured. l don't believe anyone could
have eczema worse than our baby.
Before we used the Cuticura REM
edies we could hardly look at him, he
was such a pitiful sight. He would
fuss until l would treat him, they
semed to relieve him so much Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment stand by
themselves. and the result they quick
ly and surely bring is their own rec
ommendation.'' (Signed) Mrs. T. B.
Rosser. Mill Hail. Pa. Feb. 20. 1911.

ment are sold by druggists and deal

fed, the body suffers, because 1t Is
absolutely necessary to keep the body
In good condition, Thousands of
horses are fed all they can eat, yet
are poorly nourished because the food
contains little except fuel substances
The flesh forming substances are
used to replace the waste that goes on
In all living tissues. Energy produc-
Ing substances are.,used to furnish the
energy required for the nervous and
muscular activities of the body. and
when fed in excess they may to a GER
tain extent be stored up in the form
of fat for use later, when needed for
either energy or heat.
One of the most important sub
stances in any foodstuff is protein. All
nutritive substances which contain
nitrogen are classed under the general
term of protein. Protein Is composed
of nitrogen. carbon, hydrogen, oxygen.
sulphurs, and phosphorus.
The Elbert County tribune., 1912-01-12
PROTEIN rs MOST IMPORTANT
SUBSTANCE IN ANY FOODSTUFF
Hydrogen, Oxygen Sulphur
and Phosphorus-It Makes Up Muscles. Tendons,
Connecting Tissues, and
LIMOS Everything but Fat

Protein is the substance which
builds up the body. The muscles, ten
dons, ligaments. connective tissues,
skin, hair. hoofs, part of the bone, and
in fact every part of the body but fat
are made up of protein. together with
mineral matter and water.
The next important class of sub
stances is the carbohydrates, which
contain carbon. hydrogen, and oxygen,
but no nitrogen, sulphurs, or phos-
phorus; they include starch, sugars,
etc. These are used for practically
the same purpose for which coal or
wood is used in the steam engine,
namely. to furnish energy and heat.
The third important constituent of
hay is its oils. Small quantities of
oil are present in all kinds of hay.
These oils serve the same purpose as
the carbohydrates. A pound of these,
however, will furnish two and one
fourth times as much energy or heat
as the same quantity of carbohydrates.
1t can readily be seen, when the chem
ical analysis of hay Is considered. why
the price of the different grades or
kinds of hay should depend, first,
upon the amount of digestible nutrf-
ents contained. and, second, upon the
purpose for which the hay is fed. If
the concentrated feed. e., the grain
In the ration-lacks protein, then the
hay that is high In this substance is
more valuable than one which con-
tains little but carbohydrates, and vice
versa There is quite a range in the
amount of the different classes Of
nutrients in the various kinds of hay.
On an average, in 100 pounds of al
falfa hay the digestible protein
amounts to 1888 pounds; in cowpea
hay. 1919 pounds; in alsike clover
hay, 8.15 pounds; in red clover hay.
73S pounds; in redtop hay. 4.80
pounds; and in timothy hay, 2.89
pounds.
In 100 pounds of redtop hay the
digestible carbohydrates amount to At
pounds; in timothy hay, 43.72 pounds;
in alsike clover hay, ALTO pounds;
in alfalfa hay, 37.33 pounds; in cow
pea hay. 3S.40 pounds; in red clover
hay, 3615 pounds.
When fed for protein, timothy hay
ranks last, but when fed for carbo-
hydrates It stands next to redtop,
which heads the list. If the total
nutrients are considered there are a
number of different kinds of hay which
are equal. If not superior. to timothy
hay for feeding purposes.

Ry H. B. M.cLuRE.l

The nutritive substances in hay or
iced may be divided into two classes
desh forming and fuel or energy pro-
ducing substances. Wnen the proper
amount of these two classes cf sub
stances is fed the ration is said to
be balanced. II an unbalanced ration
Is fed, as one containing more fuel or
energy producing substances than are
needed and less fesh-forming mate

such unwise feeding will not bring as
good results as the feeding of the same
amount of a balanced ration. Each
class of substances has different Of

Good Liberal Education.

One of the best investments that
any farmer can make, with view to
helping his boys and girls in the fu
ture, is In giving those boys and girls
good liberal education, that will
enable them to compete with others
and hold their own in the future. One
thousand dollars and good educa-
tion equip young man much better
for his struggles in life than will two
thousand dollars and no education.

Felt He Had Known the Worst

Pat O'Shaunessy had been told by
the doctor that he could live but a
few hours, and his wife and assem-
bled relatives and friends asked him
whether there was one last wish he
would like to have gratified? There
is." said Pat, I'D like to hear the vii

useful object accomplished by painting
is the improved sanitary conditions of
buildings and outhouses. The cost of
such work is small. the necessary
equipment not expensive. and with
proper care will last long time.
In order to supply information which
will enable the farmer to purchase the
paint economically and apply 1t In
telligently and to the best advantage,
Secretary Wilson caused experts in the
bureau of chemistry to investigate
the subject and prepare Farmers Bulle-
tin No. 474 calling attention to the

tails as to the cost, purchase, and care

the idea of mixture of pigment with

trich or paradise feathers make the
best trimming for these caps Of vel
vet, with pointed crowns, and brims
of cloth-of-gold, are finished with a
band of marten and loops of the gold
lace that is fulled about the face. Most
of these combinations are equally
good with silver lace and with It a
greater variety In color of velvet may
be used.
These rich hats. are particularly
good from one standpoint. They may
be worn with almost any gown or cos
tune. Although the initial expense Of
good fur hat is considerable the fur
lasts for many seasons, In fact almost
Indefinitely and may be used again
and again.
In millinery many cheap furs are
used that are about as effective as
more costly ones, but have not the
same durability. They are called by
the names of sealskins which they are
made to initiate. and answer the pur-
pose for one or two seasons, very well.
Marten and skunk are very desirable
and fox also will stand the sort Of
wear 1t gets in millinery very well.
Just now there is fad for hat mum
and neckpiece made of velvet or satin
and bordered with fur. The pieces
match, and many an old set of furs
is being cut up-the good parts pieced
into bands and used to decorate such
sets. Sometimes bag is included in
the pretty outfit. Altogether the re-
suit Is very pleasing.

with the result that the little courier

Died in her home in our city,
Friday, September 9th, at eleven
O'Clock p. M, little Atha Eliza
beth, only daughter of Mr.. and
Mr. r. G. Martin, aged three
years and one month.
And Oh, when aweary, may we
be so blessed,
And sink like the innocent child
to rest,
And feel ourselves clasped to
the Infinite breast"
Thus over a happy home the
shadow of a little grave has fall
en-; and as another has said, it is
wonderful how long a shadow a
little grave can throw.
Atha was taken sick about a
week before, the doctor was cal
led and everything that could
possibly be done for her was
done. She grew worse as time
went by and a nurse was called
arriving Monday. Hope for her
recovery was strong until the
last bu5 the dreaded disease was
to firmly established to respond
to treatment and the little life
ended. The funeral was held
Monday afternoon from the
Methodist Church and interment
made in the Hope Cemetary.
The sympathy of the community
goes out to the bereaved parents.
