Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
A Good Bed.

A Good Bed.
Mrs. Fl. J. r. writes: Gould you
tell me the best kind of mattress to
buy for 6.month-old baby's bed. one
that he can use for several years."
Answer: A hair mattres is the first
choice. but these are very expensive.
and if that item weighs in the balance
the next choice is a good grade OF cot
ton felt. This would be satisfactory
for years.
Mrs. H.: Will you send me a self
addressed and stamped envelope and
ask for leaflet No. Z?
Cod Liver Oil.
Mrs. L.: Cod liver oil is not given
to children Just to increase weight. II
Is given to prevent ricketts,. due to a
lack of certain vitamins in the diet,
and, in addition increase the child s
ability to make use of certain food ele-
ments that otherwise might not be
utilized to their fullest. This results
in an increase Of weight. 1t is per
fectly all right to give your l0-week-
old baby five dro"s of cod liver oil
daily. Use the plain Norwegian oil.
Tickets.
Mrs. G.. D.: Ricketts, is a nutritional
disease caused by a lack of certain ele-
ments in the diet. A child of years
who is having a good general diet OF
fresh vegetables, fruit. milk, eggs, etc,
and who gets out in the sunlight daily
should not be a victim of ricketts,.
Ricketts, result in the bones being so
soft that the child's weight causes bow
legs and knock knees; the wrists and
ankles thicken and various other bones
In the body show characteristic
changes if the disease is allowed to go
unchecked. Cod liver oil and sunlight
are able to check the disease, and if it
has not gone on SO long that the bones
have become hardened in their deform-
ity, the child will suffer no ill effects
from It. The symptoms you describe
as suffered by your daughter at inter
walls sound like eczema or hives, both
of which are caused by some article
In the diet which ''poisons" the person
and causes breaking out that is
very itchy. The cure comes in elimi-
mating this article from the diet.
Mrs. r.: VIII you read answer to
Mrs. II. above and follow directions
given her?

Women Who Have Important Tasks

BY ALICE ROGERS HAGER

the boys and girls themselves,
through clubs Of their own, very real
help and encouragement along with
knowledge.
Miss Gertrude Warren Of the ex.
tension service is the national ex-
pert who works throughout the coun-
try with and in the interests of the
farm girls. When you realize that
over 100000 girls are likely to be en-
rolled in the farm clubs this year
there were 300.545 last year. and the
number is steadily increasing-and
how widely scattered the clubs are,
you will see what a responsibility
Miss Warren is shouldering. 1t is
her job to go to the State agricultural
colleges and to cooperate with them
in bringing to them the best that
other. States have discovered; while,
in turn, she studies the developments
the State in which she happens to be
has to give. She talks to the con-
ferences of the farm agents, who go
out to give the actual demonstrations
and to organize new clubs as well
as supervise the older ones. In other
words, she Is the medium through
which information is gathered. ana
lyzed and distributed to the end that
the clubs may function to the best
possible advantage.
But work of this kind needs con-
siderable training behind it. In the
first place, Miss Warren was born on
a farm herself. in New York State,
and, having spent her more youthful
years in the rural environment. she
understands how farm girls feel and
what they want. That, it seems to
me, is infinitely more important than
college training. although Miss War
ran did not neglect this necessary
background
She went to Cornell for awhile. but
took her degrees in B. S. and NJ. s.
at Columbia Teachers College in
home economics and education. Her
own teaching afterward included
nutrition courses at Simmons, in
Boston, and at Teachers College, also,
1t was from the latter place that she
came to the Department of Agricul-
ture in 1917. She has many bulletins
in the cooperative extension records
to her credit, and several articles in
the new Encyclopedia on Rural Life
are from her pen.

EVERYDAY QUESTIONS
.fns,cered by DIR. S. PARKES CADMAN

have ne real purposes. in life except
to be fed and clothed and Guido our
| neighbors in these matters?
Answer-Frederick Locker described
| those Of whom you complain in the
! following lines:
They eat and drink and scheme and plod,
They go to church on Sunday,
And many care afraid OF God,
But more OF Mrs. Grundy.
Yet let US not judge too hastily.
Even with churchgoing now on the
decline among these persons and their
fear of Mrs. Grundy greatly lessened,
they have salient characteristics en-
titlinG them to respect. After all, food
and clothes are necessities. not -'tri-
! fles" and the struggle to get them de-
velops some excellent qualities of hui
man nature.
The economies of poor parents and
working girls or boys often have a
Spartan flavor.
I cannot recall the honorable pride
of mothers in most modest circum-
stances in turning out their children
as the addressed youngsters of their
set without a responsive thrill Of adj
miration for those mothers.
LIES real purposes are not found in
meat and raiment, yet neither can
they be found without them. The ap-
petite for food may degenerate into
gluttony and the craving for suitable
attire can become a consuming pas
sion for costly or Ill gotten finery.
Nevertheless, these evils are open
to correction. Better ways of living
may be cultivated by relieving the
economic pressure Of the masses and
by stimulating the desires of less for
tunately situated children land young
people for things that do not perish
with the using.
Those who waste their substance in
riotous living and extravagant display
present an entirely different problem.
They fail beneath the test of my cor
respondents question and constitute
one of the most serious obstacles to a
higher civilization.
The remedy in their case Is that
quick dispersion of wealth which
/, usually brings these groups back
again to shirt sleeves and hard work
within three generations.

somersaults on his lawn. l intended TO
use the testimonial, but before I could
get around to it the plant wizard S

But here's better one from a man
who spends the Winter in Florida.
This man first asks fer my letter on
cli-you know, that means the COM
mon respiratory infections. and only
young people are interested in that
and then he goes on to say:
Five or six years ago. after read
ing your health talks. l commenced
doing the SomerSault act. l was
then a stiff old man. Today, thanks
to your advice. am "a years young
and shall continue to turn over i've

This testimonial Of f. WIS is dated
March IS. 1926. | hope and believe he
is still rolling along.
Away back in 1919 a live woman,
aged So years. told in a communication
which I published May 81 of that year
how she had been rolling EN- for two
years. At first she could hardly turn
six in q row. as the effort made her
dizZy--a sure sign one needs these
'Saults--and sometimes she suffered
nausea, but she persevered and finally
became so young that she could roll
20 or more at time with ease and
enjoyment. She said she didn't roll
'em on the bare floor. but used a
couple Of large hair pillows as a mat.
On the same day I printed a COM
munication from another live one, a
man who called himself IAN old codger
between so and 100" This lawyer said
he first whanged his poor spine on the
floor a few times and then used two
pillows end to end as a mat. He soon
learned to roll 'em and come up sm1l-
ing every time. to the envy and ad-
miration of his sons, who were recent
lv discharged from the Army and
Navy.
l have feeling that have received
testimonials about somersaultS from
a. few enthusiasts older than f. w,
but at the moment l can't turn them
up. If any reader wishes TO challenge
e. w. I'll be delighted TO hear from
him or her.
Sonersaults are not so much exer-
else as they are mechanical therapy.
In doing roll, either forward or
backward, one irons out kinks, stirs
up the more or less stagnant splanch-

digestion, prevents fatulence (gas),
improves the circulation, prevents
cold feet. opposes sallowness of the
complexion and prevents the blues.
For girls and women the half dozen
rolls each morning and evening will
prevent many functional difficulties.
1t is always necessary to point out
to the novice that Old Doctor Noah
Webster is all wrong about somer-
saults. A somersault is not a flying
leap in the air in which q person
turns heels over head anybody who
tries that need not sue me for dam
ages-but just a roll in the vertical
plane. Any child will show you how
TO roll a somersault. Old fogies had
better take it easy and have some
body assist them the first time over.
One should learn to come up smiling
and squarely up on the feet before
even attempting the backward somer-
sault. But backward rolls are easy
after you've mastered the technic of
the ordinary revolution.
