THE GOOD sANITARIAN
With Apologies to st. Luke The
Beloved Physician"
By Larry Hennessey

By Larry Hennessey
Once on time a certain man went
down from New York City 10 a small
town, and fell among disease germs.
And the germs fell upon him and
made him sick unto death with
malaria.
And by chance there came down
that way a certain priest and when
he saw the man he passed by on the
other side, saying, MY work per-
taineth only TO the soul and cannot
waste my time with earthly mat
tcrs."
And likewise a certain doctor came
that way. He saw the sick man and
paused 90 give him aid, hoping that
some day hc might receive rcmun-
Grafton for his services. He picked
up the sick man and took him TO a
hospital and ministered unto him.
The doctor gave him remedies that
he might be cured Of the wounds
made by the bacteria Of malaria and
it CHANGED that in time the sick man
was well again. The community
that built and paid for the hospital
and provided funds for its upkeep
paid the cost Of the necessary treat
ment and care, which was more
than 5000.
Now il CHANGED also that, not long
afterwards, a little child was play
ing in the roadside near the place
where the bacteria had set upon the
man. And the bacteria set upon the
child also and wounded IL. And the
parents Of the child summoned med
ical aid and the child lay for many
weeks i'll and finally died. And bac-
terra which infested this spot in the
roadside soon travelled afar and be-
gan TO attack children and adults
in the community that lay near the
road and there was much illness and
many deaths.
Then a certain Sanitarian. as he
iourneyed. came to the place. II
CHANGED that the community cared
not for the Sanitarian and would
not make a home for him there.
Iul the Sanitarian persisted and
went forth and gave battle TO the
germs and 90 the friends Of the
germs. He told the people that the
germs livel in the bodies OF mos
quitoes and were carried into bodies
Of human beings by the bites OF
these mosquitoes. He said that the
only way TO make the road safe
was TO hunt out the breeding places
Of the mosquitoes in the stagnant
pools by the roadside and 10 drain
these pools and marshes so that
could no longer lay eggs
there TO bring forth their kind TO
carry more germs into the bodies of
human beings.
10 CHANGED also that the marshes

sow AND LITTER
Care of sow before narrowing:

Care of SOW before narrowing: IL
is very important that the sow DC
. in good thrifty condition at farrow-
ing time. II is practically impos-
siblc for a sow to eat sufficient ieed
while she is sucking litter to pro-
ducc plenty Of milk and, at the same
time maintain her weight and con-
clifton. Consequently, she mast
d,av upon the food material which
has been stored in her body in the
form of flesh, previous to farrow-
ing.
several days before farrowlng II
Is advisable to reduce the iee1
slightly. Particular care must be
taken TO avoid constipation at TINS
fine. To avoid this condition the
feed should be made thin and wa
terv. and the sow should have plenty
of fresh water. Immediately pre-
ccding narrowing it is a good plan
70 reduce the feed to practically
nothing. This helps to prevent eN-
ccssive feverishness in the SOW
later.
narrowing: Just before the SOW
i expected to farrow she should be
placed in a clean, warm and well
ventilated house. If it is very cold
q lighted lantern should be hung
from the roof, inside the house. The
heat from this may save the lives
Of some pigs. A bed of plenty OF
good clean straw must he provided.
A projecting guard-board or ran, :
or Q inches wide and the same dis
lance IN from the floor is excel
lent. II will aid in preventing the
sow from crushing the pigs.
Do not disturb or attempt to as
sist the SOW at narrowing time I'M
less absolutely necessary. She must
be as quiet as possible at this time.
In most cases sows farrow without
difficulty. but occasionally need
some help. II is well to be ION the
;o,;" and ready to give assistance II
il is needed. If the weather is cold
it is advisable to be present, wipe
the pigs dry as they are born and
keep them warm until the sow fin
ishes narrowing.
Feeding the Sow: Nothing should
be given the sow but warm water
for "a hours after she farrows. IL
is very important, however, that theI
SOW sucking a litter of pigs have
plenty of clean water available all
of the time, as it is necessary IN
the production of her milk. Eight
cen to twenty-four hours after the
birth of the pigs thin slop OF bran
or ship-stuff should be fed to the
mother. Use some skim-milk in
this slop if it is available. In fact
there is no better feed for use in
the ration Of a milking sow at any
time than skim-milk, as it stimu-
laies the flow Of milk from her I'D
der. Avoid feeding corn for several
days after she farrows. Corn is o
heat-producing feed and will in
crease her fever. Four or five days
after narrowing. however, one or
two ears of corn per day can be fed,
and the proportion of corn in the
ration very gradually increased
Three or four weeks
should be taken TO get the sow on
full feed, as full feeding previous to
this time is likely TO cause thumps
and scours in the pigs.
About four per cent Of her live
weight in feed, per day, is consid-
cred a full feed for a milking sow.
For example, a 25O-pound sow
should have four per cent of this
weight. or 10 pounds, Of feed per
day. However, if she is grazing on

Thermometer Trade to U. s.

ufacturers of thermometers, besides
being able to supply fully the wants
of the domestic trade, are in a position
to build up good export business,
but, as is the case in so many indus
tries, they are handicapped at present
by the shortage of skilled workers.
The making of thermometers is mostly
hand process, with a years expe-
rience or more necessary for the de-

German goods were shut out of the

The total Interchurch World Move
ment budget for the nationwide cam
paign in the week of April Is to May
2, is $336,777,572 for the whole
country. This sum has been pro-rated
among the various states.
The Interchurch budget is the total
OF the budgets of some thirty Protest
ant denominations. Each denomination
raises its funds for its own purposes
through its own organization and by
means Of its own treasury, but for the
first time in history, all the denomina-
ions are making concentrated ap-
zeal for support. This has ben made
possible by the cooperative machin-
cry set up by the Interchurch World
Movement
For more than eight months this
movement has been making a survey
Of religious conditions in every coun-
ty and city in United States and in
every missionary field abroad. This
survey was undertaken for the pur-
pose of ascertaining facts upon which
intelligent and scientific budgets could
be based. 1t is said that no national
budget in this country has ever been
as accurately constructed through
known facts as the budget of these
denominations.
During the week of the campaign,
each denomination will present its
claims to its OWL constituency. In
terdenominational committees will pre-
sent the matters to persons who are
not related to any particular denomina-
ton or church but who are regarded
as friendly to the Christian cause.
In all cases campaign committees
will be able to show just what pur-
poses are to be served through the
funds to be raised. They will be able
to show how much will go for educa-
ton and for hospitals, for colleges, for
ministerial salaries, missionary en-
terprfses and the like.
