water four times day. If the infant
is under-nourished, it is well to give
some nourishment of a. kind that will
not be subject to fermentation. For
an infant Of six months, the following
should be fed every two hours, al
ternately: Strained fresh buttermilk,
four ounces. Rice Cruel, two ounces.
Keep the baby in cool, well-ventilat-
ed and quiet room. Handle as little
as possible. In the effort to comfort
sickly, feverish child, the mother
often walks the. floor, holding the
feverish little body close to her own,
thereby raising its temperature and
decreasing it's chance for recovery.
Rice cruel has been recommended
above for use in diarrhea cases. 1t
is prepared in the following manner:
Take two tablespoonfuls Of unpublished
ed rice, and let stand for one hour in
a quart Of warm water. Then boil for
three hours, adding water from time
to time sufficient to keep the quantity
up to one and one half pints. Strain
through a piece of clean muslin and
keep in the ice box. This should be
made fresh each morning.
Two Types of Diarrhea.
There are two distinct types of
diarrhea; simple Preventative diar-
rhea, and infectious diarrhea. Infec-
tious diarrhea is caused by germ ac-
tivity, and will need more radical
treatment, under direction of ply
sician. If the above outlined treat
ment is not effective in overcoming
the attack, it is likely that the child
has infectious diarrhea, and a physi-
clan should by all means be called.
The best way to avoid diarrhea is
to prevent it. The best prevention
is for the mother to keep herself in
good physical condition, by means
which have already been outlined in
these articles, and to nurse the baby.
1t is the bottle-fed babies that have
most of the Summer complaint"

OTL-BURNING LOCOMOTIVES
TO BE CONSTRUCTED
Frisco System Plans Immediate
Transformation of rs Engines
Into Oil Burners.

%Springfield, May 6.-The first con-
crete step by the Frisco railroad in
the direction of the use Of oil as fuel
on the system is being taken at the
west shops here, where construction
Of six oil-burning locomotives from
the ground up has been begun. This
also is the first complete locomotive
building work ever attempted by the
Frisco, Harry L. WorInan, superin-
tendent of motive power, said yester-
day afternoon.
The six locomotives will be for
switching purposes. These engines
will be used at Sapulpa and at Tulsa,
and will be ready for the expected
increase in traffic this fall.
The Frisco expects to begin at once
the transformation of the rs coal
burning locomotives on the western
division into oil-burning locomotives,
Mr.. Worman said. The western di-
vision taps some of the richest oil
fields of Oklahoma.
Recently B. T. Wood, vice-president
and chief purchasing officer of the
system, issued call for bids from oil
refineries in the mid-continental field
for long-term contracts for fuel oil.
It is said by oil men as well as rail-
road men, generally, that it is only a
question of time before the principal
railroads of the Southwest will be US
ing oil fuel exclusively. The Frisco
lines reach into the best producing oil
fields of Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas
and the road has line reaching close
to the Ell Dorado field of Arkansas.
TRANSFORMATION of the Frisco into
an oil-burning road, it has been said
by students of the situation, would
mean an important saving to the rail-
road, both in fuel and in upkeep of
engines Oil-burning locomotives, it is
said by railroad men, continue ir "per-
alton over longer period without
repairs than the same make, style
and weight of engines using coal as
fuel.

Breast Feeding Schedule.

Until the supply of milk comes in,
give the baby a small amount of boil
ed water, and nothing else, at regular
intervals after taking from the breast
Very little water is necessary after
the milk supply is established, but it
should be offered occasionally be-
tween feelings. Should the baby fuss
much between feelings, the cause is
usually indigestion; do not make the
mistake of putting it to the breast to
pacify it. If there is indigestion this
will only make matters worse. The
best plan is to skip the next feeding,
substituting for it a little warm
boiled water. Never feed a baby when
it is i'll. A hunger cry is much d'f-
ferent from cry Of distress. Most
babies are fed too often and too much
While the large, over-nourished child
may be good to look at, he has not the
resistance and strength of the really
well-nourished infant. The over-fed
baby is more susceptible to disease
than one of lighter weight. Summer
diarrhea, convulsions, tonsilitis, anc
| infectious diseases find their easiest
victims among the over-fed babies.
For the first year, the baby SHOULD
have nothing but milk, except that
after the fourth month it may b

regularity in feeding are of prime i'm
