We are nesIfing the time of the year
when hay fever becomes very prev
alent. The increase of this disease
during the months of August, Septem-
Der and October finds its explanation
in the fact that il is Mt this time that
the pollen of many grasses and weeds
become ripe and is blown free in the
air. II is to pollen that hay fever is
due. To the sufferers with this com
plant pollen is rank poison and the
slightest contact with il gives them the
violent attacks of sneezing, watery eyes
and nose, difficult breathing, and some
times other symptoms which makes life
for period of two or three
months. A person will develop hay
fever only when he comes in contact
with the pollen of certain plant to
which he is sensitive. Most people are
sensitive to the pollen of ragweed.
Others are sensitive to the pollen of the
goldenrod, of rye, of clover, of almost
any other plant. Some people cannot
come into a room where there is vase
of roses without having violent attacks
of those SYMPTOMS which are character
istic of hay fever. There are quite a
number Of plants which bear their pol
