Health is largely matter of COM
control and within natural
a community can determ-
inc its own death rate" A person
cannot determine entirely his own
state of health. Many elements enter
into the matter of health which only
community can control. But 1t
must not be forgotten that a COM
munity is composed of individuals.
Each person is a part of this COM
munity. He has an influence in the
conduct of its affairs and helps to
mold its sentiments and policies. His
acts affect all the other members.
The health of an individual depends
to large extent upon the health of
a community. but the health of a
community Is determined by the at
titude and conduct of its individual
members. Upon each individual,
, therefore, rests personal RESPONSE
bility FOR the health of his community
and state, as well as his own health.
A due regard for health demands
that we enact laws and regulations
for health protection and provide
sanitary inspectors and health Off

By DIR. FRANCIS X. MAHONEY
 Commissioner of Health

There are many places in which skim milk is not used as completely as it might be. On farms there is often more than can be proitably fed to calves or pigs. In creameries much of 1t is made into cottage cheese, but even then the whey, which is really rich in good ma terials, goes to waste.
 Many people do not realize how nu- trIt;ous skim milk Is. They imagine that because it so generally has little or no commercial value it is hardly fit for human food. As a food it is not so valuable as whole milk. and cannot take the place of the latter in the diet of children. Nevertheless, skim milk cansbe used to great advantage in com bination with other food materials, es- pecially in cooking, and is altogether too valuable to be wasted.
 A quart of whole milk weighs 341s ounces, or little more than two pounds, nearly 90 ounces of which is water. The remaining solid matter contains very use- ful food materials. Slightly more than one ounce is protein, very important muscle-builder. and one of the most ex- pensive of the substances needed by the body. About one and one-third ounces consist of butter fat and one and two thirds ounces of milk sugar. These two ilIdt01ldiS drE uScQ Uy lue DUuy lO pro vide 1t with energy, much the same as fuel is used to produce steam and power in the engine. The quart of milk also contains about one-quarter of an ounce of mineral matter, small quanti- ties of which are very necessary for the growth and general upkeep of the body.
 AS the fat is separated to form the cream some of the protein, milk sugar and mineral matter go with it, but by oil fore, a quart of separator-skimmed milk provides slightly more of this indispen- sable and costly material than does a quart of whole milk. It contains in all about one and one-fifth ounces of pro- tein, one and one-fourth ounces of milk sugar, about ohe-fourth of an ounce of mineral matter and a little fat. the last named depending. of course, upon the completeness of the separation This means that, quart for quart, it would furnish the body with slightly more pro- tein and milk sugar than whole milk

REAL VALUE OF SKIM MILK

does. and practically the same quantity of mineral matter, though far less fat. In other words, as a tissue-builder it is equal to whole milk and as an energy yielder not nearly good. Since, as rule, the tissue-building materials are contained in the more expensive foods (meais, eggs, etc), and the energy-yield- ing material can be largely provided by cheaper foods (bread and other cereal foods, fats potatoes, etc.), it seems doubly wasteful not to use skim milk.
 Those who buy milk seldom have much skim milk to use unless they follow the custom of skimming their own cream. That there is economy in so doing is shown by the following: quart of whole milk usually sells for the same price as a half pint of cream, which contains about one-fifth ounce of protein, one and one-half ounces of fat, not quite one-third ounce of milk sugar, and very little mineral substance. If this is compared with a quart of whole milk, which very commonly can be purchased for the same sum, it will be seen that the purchaser in buying a half pint of cream instead of quart of milk sac rifices nearly an ounce of sugar and one-fifth ounce of mineral matter. He gets, of course, a trifle more fat-about one-fifth ounce, or a level teaspoonful- but this is small in comparison with what is sacrificed. Some people, there fore buy whole milk instead of cream in order to have for family use the nour- ishment contained in the milk after it has been skinned. Home-skimmed milk is, of course, richer in fat than that which has been skinned by separator
 but it can be used in the same way.

land. By October 15 it may be expected in at least half the years as far south as the central portions of Kansas, Mis- souri, Illinois, Indiana, throughout east ern Kentucky and the mountainous sec tions of the Virginias-
 There is one chance in two that killing frost will not occur earlier than Novem- yer at the latitude of central Okla homa, central Arkansas and the northern portions of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and eastern North Caro- lima.
 The chances are even that it will occur by November IS little south of the cen- tral portions of Texas and Louisiana and we'll toward the southern portions of Mis- sissippi, Alabama and Georgia. This does not mean that killing frost will occur in the localities and on the dates specified every other year, but that in the long run it occurs, as indicated, in half the years.
 There prevails in some sections pop ular belief that in the season when frost may be expected it's occurrence is largely inf1unced by the phase of the moon, or other periodical phenomena Careful tab ulation of frost data and it's comparison with moon phases fails to disclose any such relation. All persons interested are therefore cautioned to watch, not the moon, but the forecasts issued by the weather bureau.

vest season. The government investi- gators believe that prices and other fac tors being equal, farmers should encour- age elevators which remain open and provide a loyal market throughout the year.
 The middleman, the experts say, may serve double purpose Under the pres ent methods of distribution he may find the most favorable outlet for the pro- ducer and secure for the buyer grain of the quality he desires. But it is also pointed out that in it's course from the producer to the consumer grain may be passed through the hands of so many persons who may be called middlemen that their efforts may become burden and add needlessly to the cost of mar keting
 Speaking of the storage of grain on the farm, the specialists have found that to determine whether such practice would be profitable, it is necessary to consider the interest on the investment. interest on the grain in store, natural shrinkage and loss of rodents, con venience of marketing, condition of roads at time of delivery, price at harvest time and the probable price at some future date. In the past the natural shrink age in corn has been so great as to show little profit from storage, while if a longtime average is taken into con- siGeration, oats and wheat have been stoI ed at a profit.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-09-13
MARKETING GRAININ COUNTRY

There are many more factors entering into the proper management of a coun- try elevator than appear upon a cursory examination of the subject The busi- ness is attended by many hazards which, in the opinion of specialists of the United States department of agriculture, should be carefully weighed in advance by thoSe contemplating engaging in 1t.
 This advice is contained in a recent publication of the department, Bulletin 55S, Marketing Grain at Country Points," The bulletin. which contains much information of interest to pro- ducers, shippers, dealers and consumers. of grain and grain products throughout the United States, reports the results of a survey of grain-handling methods in the states of the middle west
 Pointing out common fallacy. of buy ing, the government investigators de- clare that the producer of high-quality grain often receives less than it is worth in order that the buyer may pay an equal price to a grower of grain of in- ferior quality. If the farmer would clean his grain he could not only demand top prices, but would thereby obtain screen ings worth $10 to $20 ton for feed. The specialists believe that farmers who de- liver grain of inferior quality should expect to receive a price equal to that paid for high-quality grain
 In some sections of the country many elevators are open only during the har-

WHEN TO EXPECT FIRST FROST.

Truckers and gardeners planning for late crops should be aided in determin- ing their best bets' on the first frost by referring to this historical summary of frost occurrences in various sections, just issued by the United States weather bureau:
 Killing frost has never occurred earlier than September 10 south of the extreme southwestern portion of South Dakota, extreme southern Minnesota, central wis consin and the interior northern portion of lower Michigan. It has never occurred earlier than October south of the ex-. treme north portions of Oklahoma and Arkansas, southern Tennessee and the mountain districts of North Carolina and Virginia. It has never occurred earlier than October 20 to the southward of the extreme northeastern portion of Texas, northern Louisiana, the central portions of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and eastern North Carolina.
 The chances are even that killing frost will not occur before September 15 in most of North Dakota Montana and the extreme northern portion of Minnesota By the first few days in October killing frost occurs on the average one year in two as far south as the southern por- ton of Nebraska southern and eastern Iowa, southern Wisconsin, most of the interior portion of lower Michigan, and throughout the greater part of New Eng

from the border of the cornea to the ulcer. Some cases result in a large scar and white opaque cornea, causing blindness. Other cases recover, leaving only a small white scar. Still other cases completely recover, leaving the cornea transparent and apparently nor nal.
 Treatment is helpful and good if prop erly done. Put the infected cattle into shady pasture entirely separated from all other cattle or animals Bathe the affected eyes twice day with water and cotton that have been boiled. and cooled. During the first two or three days after bathing touch the ulcer with small piece of cotton on the unburned end of match, after the cotton has been dipped into the following: Get brown one-ounce bottle and fill it with pure clean water that has just been boiled. put piece of stick of silver ni- trate one-third inch long into the bot tie. cork and shake 1t until all is dis solver. Make this up fresh every day.
 After two or three days stop using the above and with a dropper put few drops of the following into each affected eye after each bathing:

 Infectious keratitis and conjunctivitis in cattle is a trouble with which the farmer must fight continually. Nearly every year this eye disease appears in some herds of cattle in Alabama. It is caused by some infection. I have long believed it to be due to some small insects that get into the eye. It is we'll known that there are small gnats or other insects that get into the eye of people and produce an intense burn ing irritating sensation until removed and sometimes produces more or less inflammation of the lining of the eyelids and cornea, and the final result may be a scar and loss of sight.
 The eyes first appear inflamed tears flow freely; eyelids closed; animal ap- pears to suffer great pain: in the course of a few days an ulcer appears; usually near the center of the cornea; then the surrounding parts of the cornea are more or less white and streaked with small blood vessels running irregularly

Prepare two large white onions. Peel two cucumbers and soak in water, same as the onions. Line salad bowl with crisp lettuce leaves. wash and remove the tops and bottoms of small bunch of radishes. Cut the radishes into quarters and heap in the center of the salad dish, slice the cucumbers and onions thin, and arrange in a circle around the radishes. Season with salt and pepper and dash of sugar. Add sour cream dressing and garnish with slices of hard boiled eggs.
