SEWAGE Disposal.


Most of the diseases which may be
carried by milk are due to contamina-
tion of that product by human agency.
Typhoid, dysentery. scarlet fever, diph-
/. iberia and septic sore throat are of
human origin. Typhoid and dysentery
are spread originally by contamination
by human excreta, the others are
spread originally by discharges from
the nasal and throat passages, conse-
quently when these diseases are con.
veycd through milk, it simply means
that the milk has had added to it the
ssxcreta Or discharges from the body of
a person sick with one of these dis
eases or a carrier of one Of them. As
a go-between. the house fly. which
matches in filth and feeds on the food
we eat, is most dangerous insect
enemy. The washing of excreta into
water supplies, through the soil or ON
account bf poor we'll curbing or other
surface conditions,; is an Important
means Of spreading such diseases as
typhoid fever and dysentery. The ham
ding Of milk by unclean persons is also
source Of danger, The remedy for
these conditions is the proper disposal
of human excreta so that there can be
no danger of SUCH contamination
through the agency Of flies, water sup.
Ply or human beings.
Proper sewage disposal on dairy
farms is a protection not only to- the
consumer of milk but is of special i'm.
portance in stopping the spread of epi-
demic disease in the dairyman's own
famAy. A typhoid case in family will
spread to other members Of the same
family unless great care is taken in
properly disposing of the excreta from
the patient. J.
The Importance Of proper sewage
disposal. especially on dairy farms. is
being strongly emphasized by the
United States department of agricul.
ture and the United States public
health service.

NEW CLOTHES

Invoice your wardrobe care
fully and be sure you really need
every article you plan to buy.
For the articles to be replaced,
choose material in garments
which, will harmonize with the
rest Of your wardrobe. It is eco
nomical to buy fewer garments
at a time and to buy the best ma
terial one can afford.
In ready-made garments,
choose conservative styles that
they may be worn a long time.
Select garments appropriate to
the use they are intended for and
suitable to your individuality. It
Is economical to limit the num-
ber and variety of colors in your
wardrobe.
Standard materials of good
grade, such as wool serge, broad
cloth. flannel, crepe de chine.
gingham, dimity, and percale,
are economical because they
wear well and are never out of
style.
II you have the time and abil-
ity, 1T is economy to make your
clothes or part Of them.
In buying ready-to:wear un-
I dergarments give preference to
simplicity. in style and good
workmanship, because they wear
better and are easier to ,launder.
One garment Of good material
will outlast two cheaper ones:
but 1t may be economy to buy
cheaper material: for garments
worn only occasionally.
Buy after the rush season. Es-
innate the quantity of material
|; required before buying. Select
garment that will serve two
purposes If possible.

FOWLS FOR BREEDING STOCK
Young Hens With Blunt Toenaiis Are

Be sure to look at the toenails Of

The blunt, short toenails are a good
indication on the cock birds as well.

because of lack Of knowledge, the home

classes in clothing conservation in all

evoked marked response from women

Proud of their efforts and anxious
to have their neighbors profit by their

have put on fashion shows" where

old material.
The campaign has been especially
strong in Iowa and Nebraska. Stores,
halls, private homes and libraries have
been utilized for the exhibits and as
places in which to hold the "clinics."
To the "clinics" those who are inter-
ested bring garments and leftovers and
discuss with the expert in charge the
best way Of putting them to new uses.
In Cerro Gordo county, Iowa, an es-

TIL the chronometer came into use in
1875. The ancients and later naviga-

could determine their longitude only by
dead reckoning" or. estimating their
ships progress from day to day. This
system was uncertain and caused
great many shipwrecks.
