THE GOOD HEALTH
QUESTION BOX
BY DR.. JOHN HARVEY KELLOGG
Infant Indigestion

DISORDERS of digestion constitute n
~ very large share of the causes of Illness
IN babies Vomiting is the most common
symptom When the matter vomited Is very
sour. the child is suffering with acldity OF
the stomach, which may be the result of
overfeeding or of the use OF cane sugar.
Dark. offensive bowel discharges indicate
decomposition of the contents of the intes-
tines in consequence of imperfect digestion
Such discharges are generally preceded
by discharges in which Jumps Of curd are
seen.
Clay-coiored stools indicate an excess Of
fat or an obstruction of the bile duct. prob
ably in consequence of the extension Of
the intestinal catarrh into the bile passages.
When the stools long continue dark, sour
or fetid. the child will show marked symp-
toms Of wasting. becoming thin and
wrinked the countenance wearing an old
look--wcak. peevsh and restless.
The principal causes of indigestion In
children are improper food. too frequent
feeding overfeedng the use OF nursing
bottles which have not been properly
cleansed Mental excitement. as care
anxiety and particularly anger on the part
of the mother is a frequent cause of in
digestion in nursing infants. The i'll health
of the mother during the nursing period
may lay the foundation of the constitutional
weakness in the child. Feeding the child
every time It cries is most perncous
habit The child should he fed at regular
intervals, the length of which should he
determined by its age.

Sensitive Skin

weather? MRS Il G.
Doubtless you have a very sensitive skin
You should use lanoine cream. Take
great pains also when cleaning the hands
not to leave soap on the skin The hands
should always be washed in running water
and not in water held In a bowl or basin
The first use of water in a bowl soils the
whole quantity and IT is then impossible
no matter how long the process is continued
to get the hands clean in unclean water
Dirt or soap left on the skin often produces
an irritation.

Lime Water in Milk

Is the addition Of lime water to milk beneh-
cial In feeding Infants? r. V. A.
The idea seems TO he current that lime
water used in cows milk is a valuable ad-
dition to the baby's diet and will prevent
ricketts,. The impression holds that the baby
is going to get needed lime out of the lime
water
People who entertain this notion are un-
aware of the fact that milk itself contains
more lime than does lime water Another
important difference is this: That the lime
of the milk is organic lime, organized lime
lime that is ready to be assimila ted,
whereas the lime in the lime water is dead
lime. mineral lime. There is abundant evi-
dence that this mineral matter cannot he
easily assimilated by the body, and very
little of IL can be used.

Berlin. via Sayville, Jan. i6.--Ger.
many does not regard the allies re-
ply to the American peace note as
listing peace terms. but as setting
forth the entente's aims Of conquest.
The note Is regarded as confirmation
OF the conspiracy Of nations to crush
Germany.
The German government and peo-
pie have arrived at this decision after
the nrst shock Of the "ridiculously
arrogant" phrases OF the note has
subsided.
That general opinion has served to
weld all Germans together. even more
firmly In their determination to con-
tinue the war in defense Of their
national existence.
While the general opinion is that
further peace moves are not likely
until after the big spring offensives.

In view Of the heavy losses sus-
tained by colonials in the war to

may be significant. considering the
renewed offensive planned on the
west. That the allied attempt to
break the western line will fail. Is
accepted as certain here.
1t is accepted that Germany's only
answer to the latest allied note must
be to fght still more vigorously. II
has been repeatedly made clear that
Germany will state her peace terms
when negotiations are opened.
But In the meanwhile. public opin-
ion backs up the government In sat
isfaction that Germany has made
her position clear; has given full
indication OF humanitarian motives
which moved her In suggesting peace,
and in adjudging that responsibility
for Continuance OF the war now rests
with the entente.

THE NEW FARM LOAN SYSTEM
The operation of the new federal
farm loan system is explained as fol.
lows BY Frank r. Wilson. of the fed.
eral farm loan bureau, who writes
the following for the United Press
papers:
The right to borrow under the
Farm Loan act Is limited to farmers
and prospective farmers.
Farmers or prospective farmers
who wish to borrow group themselves
into Farm Loan Associations. each
association being composed Of ten
or more farmers. and each associa-
tion starting with q minimum OF at
least $4,000 Of loans.
ITO join, a farmer merely makes
application to the secretary-treasurer
Of the loan association in his COM
munity. II none has been organized
he should get together the required
lumber Of borrowers and organize an
association.
The Federal Farm Loan Board at
Washington will furnish. on applica-
!tion. . blank form Of articles Of as
sociation for such organizations.
Then the organizers meet and adopt
these articles and sign them and the
secretary-treasurer makes affidavits
thereto.
This association then elects five
or more directors and the directors
then elect president, vice president.
secretary-treasurer. and loan COM
mittee Of three members.
"A soon as the loan committee is
elected It may proceed to appraise
the farms upon which mortgages
are to be placed. It's report, which
must be unanimous. must accompany
the signed articles OF the association
and be filed with Federal Land bank
Of that district.
When this is done the appraiser Of
the Federal Land bank will come to
inspect the security offered and ac-
cept or reject the report Of the loan
committee.
mo one farmer may borrow more
than $4,000 nor less than 500. No
National Farm Loan association may
start with aggregate loans less than
$40, 900.
III John Smith, farmer, desires
to borrow $4,000 he invests in the
stock Of his local loan association
one-twentieth Of this amount, OF
500.
His association then invests this
money in the stock Of the Federa,
Land bank, enabling II thus to In.
crease It's capital 80 as to make an.
other loan OF $4,000 to some othel
farmer The borrower gets his in
vestment back when he pays OF hi
loan. or he may turn II in as the last
payment on his loan. F,
Farmers are permitted to borrow
up to 80 per cent OF the appraised
value OF their land and 20 per cent o
the appraised value OF the permanent
insured improvements thereon.
"It is not necessary for narrower
TO be an actual land owner when h,
joins, but the iandless man must use
the borrowed money to purchase lant
which he intends to Immediately be-
gin farming"
