FRAUD ON RAILWAYS

The interstate commerce commits
sion has gained a victory in its cam
paign against commission companies
which for years have defrauledrail-
roads through claims for alleged
damage to goods in shipment, when
the Davidson Brother Commission
company, of Des Moines, pleaded
guilty to such a charge in the United
States district court at st. Louis yes

The suit grew out of claims filed
by the Davidson company with sew

damage to peaches in 1912. The
company asked for $4,000, alleging
that the shipments were delayed,
roughly handled and not given prop

CARE OF NAVAL CORD in YOUNG

The rupture of the umbilical or
navel cord means the rupture OF
three formerly important structures,
an artery vein and the umbilicus each
Of which has connection with the
internal organs of the young. The
umbilicus is tube which connects
with the bladder, serving as an out
let for the urine before birth. 1t is
normally closed at the time of birth
though it may open as a result of
infection. The artery being elastic
retracts easily and is not subject to
infection. The vein remains open
longer than the other structures and
it is this portion which carries infec-
ton to other parts of the body,
should the navel become infected.
The point at which the cord rup-
lures is about two inches from the
body. Normally the remaining por-
ton dries and shrinks within two
days thus removing all chance of in
lection. If the mother could give
birth in clean place, no thought re-
garding the navel cord would be nee
essary. This, however, is not possible
in all cases altho, if possible, let her
give birth in place free from de-
cayed organic material such as man
nure. The pasture is preferable pro-
viding weather conditions are suit
able.
If navel infections are prevalent in
your locality or on your premises it
is best to use additional precautions.
Wash your hands in two per cent
solution of carbolic acid or its equiv
alent, then squeeze out the fluids
from the navel with the thumb and
fore finer Thoroughly dust the ma
vel with soothing astringent powder,
as equal parts of fannie acid, boric
acid and iodoform. Ligating the ma
vel cord is not necessary in most
cases but if you do, use sterile
cord and tie as close to the skin that
covers the cord as possible.
