"Come soon," said the sand fairies,
land We'll make castles while we
wait"
The ocean fairies called back again,
but their voices could not be heard
for the ocean was very rough that day.
The waves were high and sometimes
the ocean fairies fell out of their boats
Of foam.
But quickly they climbed back again
so as not to miss any of the breakers.
Children came down to the beach and
played in the sand. They did not know
that the sand fairies were all around
them.
The sand fairies, you see, are just
che color of the sand so no one can
really see them-just as the daytime
fairies are bright and dazzling like the
sun.
Its low tide" said the children,
we've some time to play"
And then the sand fairies were glad
that the ocean. fairies were not coming
in for awhile. 1t gave the children
such a fine chance to play in the sand.
1t was the first warm day too, that is
warm enough to play in the sand, and
Mr.. Sun was helping to keep it good
and warm.
But the, tide was talking to old
Mother Ocean. what did you think
of it," asked the tide.
Il don't know what you are talking
about" said old Mother Ocean. "WOn't
you tell me?"
THE sand fairies asked the ocean
fairies to play with them!"
"And why shouldn't they, pray tell?"
asked old Mother Ocean
Because 1 wouldn't let them! - said
the tide. II wouldn't disappoint or
disobey my two good friends for any
thing in the world. l simply couldn't.
That's all there is to it,
Dear me, but you are very deter
mined, Mr.. Tide. Won't you please
tell me what you mean? l don't like
| to appear stupid. But really l haven't
the faintest idea what you are driving

and I'm not motor car and it's abso-
lutely impossible for me to drive at

l simply wanted you to- explain your

children use when they were bathing

"Forgive me for being impatient"
said the tide humbly. Il meant, you
see, that the ocean fairies couldn't
possibly play with the sand fairies
before 1 let them. And I wouldn't let
them ahead of time because l am the

One Way of Preventing Worms in Pig.
Is to Provide Good, Sanitary Quar-
xerS.


cording to temperature and other con-
ditiOns, the egg contains a tiny embry-
onic worm, and is ready for further de-
velopment when swallowed by a pig.
The eggs are highly resistant and may
retain their vitality for years. 1t is
therefore evident that in course of time
the ground in yards where pigs are
kept may become very heavily laden
with the eggs of the worms.
When the eggs are swallowed the
young worms hatch out, but do not i'm
mediately settle down in the intestine.
They get into the circulation and are
carried to various organs of the body,
| including the lungs. Meanwhile they
increase somewhat in size and undergo
certain changes of structure. In a
! week or ten days they can be found in
, infected pigs examined st-mOrtem
crawling up the windpipe into the
mouth and down the esophagus into
the stomach. In the normal course of
events they finally reach the intestine
again, where they develop slowly to
AAAe'IuAAlJ. oiHdi1 pigs IL tuolT lungs are
Invaded by large numbers of the young
Intestinal worms are liable to develop
pneumonia, which may prove fatal. It
is not improbable that many cases of
lung trouble among young pigs are
caused by these worms.
The question of preventing losses
among young pigs by worms, judging
from the results Of the investigations
! carried on in the geological division of
the bureau Of animal industry, largely
resolves itself into a question of pro-
vlding good sanitary conditions for the
pigs, particularly during the sucking
period. The sows before narrowing
should be kept in clean, dry places
away from mud wallows, and until the
pigs are several weeks old they should
be kept preferably in buildings and
pens with floors which can be easily
cleaned and which are kept clean.
