Diagnosis

From what / have said of the svmp-
toms produced by these distractions.
it should not be difficult to observe
some point that would call your atten-
ton to their presence in a child.
The obstinate nasal catarrh, which
is only temporarily relieved by treat
ment or favorable climatic conditions;
the mouth breathing; the hoarseness
and irritating cough, which is better
and worse at times; the disturbed
sleep and night t%errors; the attacks of
spasmOdic Group and the Growing res
piration; the slight deafness; the at
tacks of earache and discharging ears:
the frequent attacks of nose-bleed.
Any one or more of these symptoms
in a child or infant should at once sug
gest the probability of adenoids. Also
remember this suggestion when you
see a child who presents any Of the re-
1ex symptoms which / have mentioned.
And lastly, in the case Of the little one
who has to be reared like a dollhouse
plant, the child who suffers from de.
feient oxidation. It is never allowed
to play out of doors with other chill
dren, because it is always taking cold.
In spite of all this care and attention
it generally contracts every disease
that childhood is heir TO-. / firmly be
lieve that if these children had their
noses and thOats looked after and then
were put out in the fresh air, with a
pile Of dirt for a playground, there
would be very few puny, deficient and
backward children. Not many years
ago cases Of ricketts, were quite com
mon, but TODAY they are considered =
reproaeh to the family physician
should a case develop where his ser
vices have been engaged. I think the
time is close at hand, and justly so,
when we viii deserve the same cen
sure, when we allow adenoids to claim
their toll of suffering, disease and de-
formity from the infants and children
whose health and welfare we are sup
posel to guard and direct.

BEST HOUSES FOR CHICKENS
One Subject on Which Successful

Any kind of house will answer the

Repeated experiments have proved
that fowls are more nearly in their
natural environment when housed in
dry, cold, fresh-air houses, than when
in artificially heated ones. The egg
production is much better in the for

the eggs hatch much better, and the

Those soys will help out in your

equal parts by measure ground oats.

and linseed meal. To every measure
of this mixture put three measures of
corn. and for every four pounds of milk

kitchen offal. Gull apples, pumpkins
and such. A little wheat middlings

a slop and favored with buttermilk

Give them plenty to drink and give
them all the corn they can eat three
times day, and soon they will be hogs
fit to kill and need no more feed.
When this is done. then think of SELL

If you manage and handle your live

COMMON TAPEWORM IN LAMBS
Not Believed That They Are Respon-
sble for Many Deaths of Animals,
Says Western Expert.
By I. f. NEwsOM. Colorado Agricu

(By l. F.. NEWSOM, Colorado Agricul-
tural College Fort Collins, Colo)
The common tapeworm of lambs is
one that has habit OF getting into
the duct leading from the liver, and
for this reason many who have exam
ined sheep, dead of disease, have sus-
pected the tapeworm OF causing the
death. 1t might be we'll to state that
more than 60 per cent of all western
lambs have these tapeworms, as evil
denced by finding them on the kill
ing floors at the large packing houses.
While it must be admitted that in a
few instances they may cause some
trouble, yet it is not believed that they
are responsible for many of our lamb
losses.
During the siege of the Kansas
horse disease some man unfamiliar
with the normal conditions in horses
for the first time found Palisade
worms in the abdominal arteries Of
dead horses. He at once jumped at
the conclusion that these worms were
responsible for the disease. Had he
known that approximately 95 per cent
of all horses have these same worms,
his reputation might not have suffered.
1t is rather common for veterinarians
to diagnose tapeworms in dogs, and in
about 95 per cent these diagnoses are
correct, but that the tapeworms in
these animals are responsible for dis
ease is not at all evident, except in a
very small percentage of cases. So It
is with these tapeworms in lambs.
They can always be found in posting
any large number of animals. but that
they are responsible for any serious
disease is evident only in few cases.

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's
Recipe Of Sage and Sulphur and
Nobody Will Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur. properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about so cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe. be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does It
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time: by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two. your
hair becomes beautifully dark. thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

M0LDY SIlAGE IS HARMFUL
Complaints Made That Farmers Lose
Horses and Enthusiastically
Avoid All Spoiled Stuff.

Every winter farmers complain of
losing horses or mules by feeding
spoiled silage. Damaged or moldy
silage is not first-class feed for any
animal Even cattle should be fed
carefully, but the greatest care should
be exercised with horses and colts.
See that no moldy stuff gets into their
feed boxes and that none is left
there from one feed to another to
spoil.
Good silage does not hurt horses,
but remember the mold that some
times occurs in spots may kill them
at any time.
