Infants Complaints.

The first warm days in June ling
a burden of apprehension to young
mothers. The babies who have
thrived during the winter and
spring show the effects of the
changed season. They grow pale
they become restless, their digestion
is feeble. Every mother wonders
as she looks at her child, whether
or not 1t will survive the warm
months of summer.
No mother can get a positive an
swer to this question; but every
mother can be assured that if she is
careful of her child and mindful of
a few essentials, she can give her
child nine chances Of living to one
of dying. The most important
thing to do is to watch the baby's
food. If the child is breast-fed and
the mother is careful in her per-
sonal habits, there is comparatively
small danger. If the baby is bot
tle-fed, there is much greater dan
ger of sickness, but this can be min
imized by few simple precautions.
These are the things to do.
/. See that the baby gets fresh
and pure milk.
Q. See that the milk never sours
nor gets heated before being deliv-
cred to you.
8. See that the milk is kept
cool after you get it.
4. See that the milk and nurs-
ing bottles are boiled as often as
used.
8. See that everything used in
preparing the milk is kept clean.
6. See that the flies are kept
away from the baby and the baby's
bottles.
7. See that a physician exam
ines your baby, prescribes its food
and directs it's treatment whenever
the child is sick.
8. Keep the baby out of doors
in the fresh air as much as possible.
o. Feed the baby regularly and
not every time it cries or frets.
10. Give the baby water to drink
at such times and. in amounts as the
season and age Of the baby require.

Farmer Slack's Woes.

Farmer Slack is two weeks or
more behind in his seeding this
spring because his plows and har-
rows which he left out in the fence
corner over winter we're rusted and
out of repair. He broke his plow the
first time he hitched onto it, his
disc harrow which he bought new
last year wouldn't work, and one of
the cogs in bis seeder snapped the
first time around the field, 80 he
bad to send to the company to get
new one, delaying him seeding
several days. As a result his oats
will be late in coming up and will
hardly get a start before the June
dry spell. The yield will be small.
His moving machine and binder are
under an open shed where he left
them last fall, unrepaired and in no
condition for use. 1t will not require
an extraordinarily strong develop
ed prophetic vision to see that hay
ing will be late on Neighbor Slack's
place. The clover and timothy nay
will be over ripe and worth about
as much as wheat straw for stock
feeding.
And Neighber Slack will lay all
his troubles to the poor season and
general bad luck. Mrs. Slack will
wear her last summers hat another
year.-Rural Life.

eliminated. Only good horses will
pay for production, and demand
for good stock will grow-demand
will be for better stock, all the
time. while demand for stock of
poor quality will grow less. The
man who raises poor stock need not
expect good market, and will be
fortunate if he finds any market
at all.
This is not bad. There ought to
be no market for stock of poor
quality. The production of such
stock answers no good purpose, and
is gross waste. A horse of fine
quality can be fed for as little as
can plug" and there is no ex-
cuse for the ''plug's" existence.
Let those who ale raising horses
and mules-appreciate the fact
that demand is for good stock on
ly, and they will respond to the
demand. Let them know that they
must find loss on poor stock, and
they will breed only good stock.
Prices are high. and will con-
tinue to be high, for good horses.
For the other kind there is little
demand, and there will be less.-

Our Daily Bread.

No other foodstuff used py man
is more satisfying than bread when
taken with other articles of diet,
and many of the latter gain thereby
in nutritive value and power of as
similation, as, for instance, milk.
BY simply drying the slices of
bread, thus making toast" bread
can be more readily digested. 1t
is also more easily masticated, and
for this reason somewhat stale
bread is to be preferred to that
freshly baked.
Of the various fours made of ce-
reals, wheat -four is the most used.
The finer the -four is ground, espe-
cially wheat -four, the more of nu-
tritive substances are lost, and
wheat bread is poorly absorbed.
Rye flour, when it contains bran,
is very badly assimilated. Oats are
even more poorly taken up. When
oats are to be used it is best to eat
the products manufactured espe-
cially with a view to the digesti-
bility. In my estimation, puree
of oatmeal with two yolks forms a
very healthful food, in which the
eggs not only greatly improve the
taste, but also increase the nutritive
value Very valuable preparations
for children's use can be made with
oatmeal when taken with milk.
Just as with bread, many people
feel that they cannot do without
potatoes. Potatoes should always
be boiled in tie skin. The best
way is to put them into boiling wa
ter and let them cook for about
half an hour, until they are quite
soft. When the potatoes are suti-
GENTLY cooked they should be peel
ed and served at once. The diges-
tibility of the potato depends upon
the manner of it's preparation.
When potatoes have been thorough
ly cooked and are served mashed in
the form of a puree they give the
stomach but little work and can be
we'll assimilated. Good, dry, mea-
ly potatoes, when steamed, sliced
and Drowned, are well assimilated,
but whole roasted potatoes are in
diges.ible, badly assimilated and
often give rise to acid eructations.
Potatoes contain little fat, 80 it is
advisable to add butter in eating
them.-Health and Longevity.
