CARELESS SNEEZER
ILL BRED GEEZER
AND "DISEASER"
City Health Officer Wants Folk
to Be Decent and Use
Handkerchief
ADVOCATES FRESH AIR
Declares IF Baby Has One
Tooth Give Him One
Toothbrush

Dr.. j. NJ. j. Raunick, city health
ofticer, in the November Health bull
letin issued by the City Bureau OF
Health, takes crack at the "illbred''
soul who sneezes or coughs in public
without holding a handkerchief over
the mouth and nose.
DIR. Raunick says "colds, grippe,
sore throats. and many other conta-
gions are frequently contracted in
street cars and at public GATHERINGS
because some ill-bred careless person
coughs or sneezes as If they owned
the place and did not care for others
Instead of being decent and holding
their hand or handkerchief over the
mouth and nose, they seem to glory in
throwing back their heads and with
full unprotected force, let fly the germ
spreading sneeZe or cough to the de-
triment of their neighbors."
Toothbrush Not Rattle
Give the baby a toothbrush instead
of little rattle is another method ad
by the health officer who is working
hard to cut down the mortality rate in
Harrisburg. IF baby has one tooth
give him toothbrush" is his wise ad-
vice to fond parents who prefer to
rear children instead of filling ceme-
teries.
In his health tips, he claims that
there are thousands of children in the
graveyard who should be in the
schools. Several of his pithy remarks
follow:
You ought to live until you die"
The only disease a decent man
should die of is of old age"
great many of you are dead now
you're dead in parts"
Take More Fresh Air
Advocating the fresh air plan, DR.
Raunick claims that more colds and
pneumonia result from hot, stufry
street cars and poorly ventilated rooms
than from any other cause.
Seal Campaign Under Way
Explanations of how the, money

| Christmas seals will be expended in

The Red Cross Seal campaign in
Harrisburg got a big start to-day when
the city health bureau mailed out 2,O0O
monthly bulletins and on the outside
or each envelope was pasted n little
seal of the 1915 season.
1t is probably the first big lot OF
mail from this city to have the little
stamps, and the bulletins are mailed
of Canada to the health bureaus in the
larger cities. The monthly announce
ments of the Dauphin County Medical
Society and the Harrisburg Academy
of Medicine were mailed also and 1876
stamps were used for these.

Large quantities Of roughage
should be produced on dairy farms.
Soy beans is one Of the best crops
for this purpose, and it could well
be utilized on Louisiana farms be-
cause of the ease with which it fits
into crop rotation, the amount OF
forage it produces and the improve
ment that it lends to the soil.

Sigr-Posts

All crossroads in this, and
every other Parish in the state,
should be equipped with sign
boards. The sooner this is done
the better it will be; not alone for
the auto-tourists who i'll large
numbers are crossing Our state,
but for the people OF our own
Parish who have occasion to make
trips into territory unfamiliar to
them.
A generous act never fails Of its
reward and when township trus-
tees, or Police Jury, or whoever
should do this work can perform
so splendid a service in the line of
official duty at so little cost, it
ought to be done.
In many parts of this, and other
states, people OF Our Parish have
appreciated the kindness of those
who have placed signboards and
guide posts at the various cross
roads and we should return the
compliment. Some of the principal
roads in the Parish already have
been marked but there are many
important crossroads left unmark.
ed and the need of guiding signs
at such places is great.
In ox-cart days small thought
was given to guide posts. Wher
the horse crowded the OK from the
highways, guide-posts assumed
larger Importance. But it remained
for the automobile to bring thu
cross roads sign post to its full use

Bank Helps Boys to secure
Registered Pigs.

A difficulty that often confronts
the organizer of pig clubs is the
lack of money on the wouid-be
menlbers with which to purchase
pure-bred animal. For this reason
bows are sometimes allowed TO enter
a club and raise grade pigs. This
difficulty is solved in Calcasieu
Parish by the liberal policy of the
First National Bank of Lake Char
les. The officials of that bank,
upon learning of the splendid work
that is being done by the boys and
girls in the clubs, made an offer to
lend money to any boy or girl who
wished to purchase a thorough
bred pig. The money is loaned
upon the recommendation OF the
parish superintendent or the local
demonstration agent in charge OF
the club work. No endorsement is
required on the notes and no inter
est is charged for twelve months.
If at the end of twelve months the
boy is unable to meet payment he
is allowed to renew the note tor
another twelve months at eight per
cent interest. A great many club
members throughout the parish
have availed themselves of this op-
portunity to secure registered stock
The same terms are offered To
members of the girls canning clubs
who wish to purchase canning out
fits.

Take Care of the Baby.

Summer weather is hard on the
baby. Proper food will prevent
many deaths. Mothers milk is the
only perfect food for baby. Clean
fresh, cows milk, properly modih-
ed and pasteurized is the best
substitute. To pasteurize milk,
place the bottles containing the
milk IN a double boiler, put in a
thermometer and heat until the
water is $50 degrees. Then push
boiler to the back of the stove and
keep the temperature between 40
and $50 degrees for thirty minutes
This kills all the germs. II you
have 10 thermometer, heat until
the water around the bottles comes
to a boil, then let stand for thirty
minutes. Bottle milk should be
diluted with boiled water, and
cooled boiled water given freely
between feelings. Clothing in
summer should be light, ard the
baby kept out of doors as much as
possible, except when it is very
hot. He should be bathed morning
and evening, and on hot days, III
the middle of the day. If diarrhoes
appears, the baby's food should
be diluted with boiled water, ant
the amount much decreased. L
there is vomiting and fever, stol
all food, giving only boiled water
and call a physician.
