How To Keep
Yourself Well
Feeding the Baby


@. Ny little girl is six months
old; at birth she weighed 7 pounds;
now she weighs u pounds. Has
she gained normally? She is a
nursing baby. Should I begin to
feed her occasionally? What foods?
Should 1 continue to battle her
daily?
A. The weight OF your baby is
slightly above the average for an
infant of this age. A child six
months of age should be given no
other food as long as it continues to
thrive on the breast. A child Of
this age can have the juice of an
orange about half an hour before
the second nursing. daily. At eight
months IL may take little cereal
cruel and after nine months beef
juice and beef tea. During the
tenth month weaving begins; espe-
cially in cool weather; by substitute
ing cows milk, properly diluted, for
a breast feeding, gradually increas-
ing the number of milk feelings
until by the time 1t Is eleven or
twelve months of age. it is entirely
weaned. 1t may also have crackers.
toast, zwieback, strained cereal and
broth made from chicken. beef or
every day of it's life.

both eyelids to swell and present a
puffy appearance at other times

and generally at other times TO be
full of fine wrinkles, when the lady

wrinkles? Is it always the kidneys
that cause il? Would eczema of the
scalp affect the skin OF the upper
eyelids and cause the puffiness and
sometimes a redness?
A. The 'puffiness'' under the eyes
Is often an early symptom of kid
ney trouble, and ] would suggest
that the patient go at once to a
qualified physician, and have thor
ough examination made. including
an analysis of the urine. 1t is pos
sible that the trouble is purely local,
but that could only be determined
as a result Of a medical examination.
Astriate Bronchitis
Q. A friend Of ours has an eight
year-old boy who is suffering with
'-astriate bronchitis" They have
moved to Los Angeles, Cal. and
after three months the boy shows
no Improvement. A doctor has ad-
vised them to go TO San Antonio,
Texas, and would appreciate very
much your advice on which Is the
best climate for a child in his con-
dition to live in.
A. Whether Los Angeles or San
Antonio is best suited to this partic-
ular child is a question to be decided
by the doctor who has studied the
case. Your friend is doing the best
thing for her little boy in seeking q
suitable climate for him. but it will
be necessary for her TO remain in
that climate long enough to break
mp the tendency to recurrence. and

Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

The leaves of celery should be
carefully dried for use in soups and
stews.
Strip the leaves from the stalk
and wash. Dry between towels.
Spread on a pasteboard box cover
and put in a warm place TO dry.
Then store in alright containers.
During the spring and early sum-
mer months celery Is usually scarce
and high. The dried leaves give
the desired flavor to a soup and are
always at hand.
Menu for Tomorrow
Breakfast: Halves of grapefruit,
corn meal pancakes. sirup, coffee.
Luncheon: Cream of corn soup,
lettuce with hard-boiled egg dress
ing, sugar cookies. tea.
Dinner: Salmon cakes, cream po-
tatoes, canned peas. radishes, old
fashioned bread pudding. coffee.
My Own Recipes 80
Serve popcorn with cream OF corn
soup instead of crackers or toast
strips. The popcorn is delicious and
looks most attractive sprtnkled over
| the soup.
Pull the lettuce apart for the sal
ad and mix with the dressing In
salad bowl.
Sugar Cookies
One-half cup butter, 1 cup sugar,
1 egg, IL teaspoons sweet milk, 8
teaspoons baking powder, cups of
| -four, II teaspoon vanilla, few graf
ings nutmeg.
Cream butter and sugar. Add
egg well beaten. Add milk. Add
-four and baking powder sifted to-
gether., Add fiavoring. II half
butter and half lard is used in place
of all butter a little salt should be
added with the -four. Roll thin on
houred molding board and bake
in a quick oven.
Salmon Cake
One can salmon, teaspoons lem
on juice. y cup dried bread or
cracker crumbs, egg, salt and pep
per. milk TO make moist.
Remove skin and bones from the
salmon and flake. Mix with lemon
juice. Add bread crumbs and mix
thoroughly. Add egg. unbeaten and
mix. Add salt and pepper and enough
milk to make quite moist. The
crumbs absorb ths milk so il takes
quite a lot. Form into round, fat
cakes and fry in frying pan till a
delicate brown The cakes should be
as moist as it is possible to make
them and be easy TO handle.

MAY PASS ROAD
MEASURE BEFORE
END OF The WEEK
IN ORDER THAT COMPUTATION
TAXES MAY BE CHANGED FOR
PRESENT CALENDAR YEAR.
LATTER WILL Be DOUBLED TOO
But Wheel Taxes viii Continue for
1921 Just AS They Were Last Year,
Autos, Bugsles and Wagons All Be-
ing Assessed by CLERK.
(From Tuesdays Daily Herald)

(From Tuesdays Daily Herald)
1t is said to be altogether probable
that the new road law for Maury coun-
| ty will be passed on final reading in
week and become a statute of the
state
This will be done in order that the
communication tax may be fixed before
the first Monday in February which is
next Monday. 1t is contended that I'M
less the new law be passed on or be-
fore the first Monday of February it
would not be possible to change the
amount of the individual Communication
tax until next year. The new law
places this tax at $40 instead of SIS as
provided by the existing law, hence
the anxiety to change it before it is
too late. Ia ~ ~
| But no matter when the law may
be passed the wheel taxes already lev
led for this year will remain unchang-
ed. They will be collected on every
wagon buggy and automobile in the
county just as they were last year and
at the same rate and will be paid to
the county court clerk
Members of the delegation realize
that the people expected this tax to be
repealed for this year and that they
were elected with that understanding
but they have been advised by compe.
tent legal authority that it lis not
within the power of the legislature to
repeal the taxes already accrued, SO
that this feature of the law will take
effect on the first day Of next year.
and except on automobiles, no direct
wheel tax will be collected in the
county in 1922
Except for the wheel tax provisions
the new law will go into effect soon
after it is passed and there will be a
complete change in the machinery for
| its execution. ~ VT
THE Herald has been promised a
copy of the bill now pending by men,
bers of the delegation and just as soon
as it is received complete synopsis
Of its provisions Twill be published.
There is good deal of interest and
many inquiries are being received by
The paper as to the details of the new
law. These inquiries will be answer
ed just as soon as the copy of the
bill is received.

Z. Murphy, one of the leading fruit
growers of Maury county will address
the Enterprise Club at q O'clock Fri
day afternoon upon subjects of vital
interest tQ'every rfmmer .iIthe county,

ganization.
Mr.. Murphy will discuss fruit grow
ing, and will seek to stimulate among
the farmers greater interest in the
home orchard and in the culture of
fruits.
The meeting at Enterprise on Fri
day is but the first of series of sim
liar meetings to be held in every sec

the county council in an effort to Gre

In other sections of the state where
these meetings have been held, the
membership of the agricultural coun.
Gil of the county has been materially
increased, and it is believed that Maui
ry county will prove no exception.
The county council is for no one
farmer, or group of farmers, but for all
farmers in all sections. Through this
organization the problems of the farm
er are worked out in the most scientif-
&c manner, and at the council head
quarters all farmers may secure in

address of presentation Mr.. Finney ex-
pressed the hope and belief that in the
years to come the members of the
American Legion would be distinguish
ed among their fellow citizens for the
same noble traits Of character that
had made the members of the United
Confederate Veterans the models for
good citizenship. He said that he
hoped that the same halo of glory that
now encipcles the brow of the surviv-
ors Of the Confederacy would be the
portion of the members of the Amer
lean Legion as they journeyed on to.
ward the sunset of life. He congratu-
ulated Messrs. Greenlaw and Rayburn
on the zeal an enthusiasm and energy
that they had put into their efforts to
increase the membership of the post.
Major Leroy H. Hammond, of Mt.
Pleasant, was the orator of the occa-
sion. He delivered an eloquent and
patriotic address on the object and
purposes of the merican Legion. lie
traced the organization and develop
ment of the Legion. He showed how
it had been organized among the vet
Grams Of the world war to foster 100
per cent Americanism, to uphold and
defend the constitution of the United
States and to preserve the deeds and
memories of that titanic conflict. Ma
jor Hammond bitterly denounced
those who had been disloyal and he Sc
erely criticised the pardoning of the
slackers and conscientious DIRECTORS.
This sentiment was applauded to the
echo.
Delightful music was furnished by
