suffered with my stomach and
there were times when the pains
almost got the best of me. Every.
thing I ate caused gas to form in
my stomach; 1t would swell and
bloat so I could not stand any
tight clothes and would often
walk around to remove that tight
pressed feeling. I was continually
belching up sour bile and the gas
seemed to be rolling around like
water in the stomach. Then, too.
I was always badly constipated,
always taking pills or other strong
Iaxatives which gave me no relief
to speak Of. I read where so

GROWTH OF DAIRYING

In view of the growth of the dairy industry in
many states, the question has arisen to whether
this may not lead to overproduction and consequent
loss. When all the facts taken into consideration
appears that there is little for apprehension
this score.
For several years health authorities, parent
teachers associations and home demonstration
agents have urged the increased of milk and
other dairy products of better nourish-
ment and better health for both old and young One
effect of this campaign of education is in the
fact that than 3O0OOOOO0 gallons of ice cream
now consumed annually in the United States, or
nearly three gallons for every woman and child
This is almost three times the per capita consump-
ton of 20 years ago.
Some interesting experiments recently reported
by c. U. Williams, manufacturer of cleo
trio refrigerator showed that various animals grew
much faster when ice constituted one-third
of the diet, due to the presence OF proper proper
ton of protens carbohydrates and fats well as
health giving vitamins and mineral salts.
In addition to the greater consumption of ice
cream, more whole milk, butter, cheese and other
dairy products are also being used per person than
formerly and all this requires increased production
is therefore safe to say that the dairy industry

Farm Co-operatives to

organizations of National Cham
Der of Agricultural Co-operatives'
is to be effected at the fifth annual
meeting of the American Institute
of Agricultural Cooperation, now
in session at Baton Rouge, La,
July % to August "a.
Obviously, the national chamber
is to offer representatives of mem
Der associations an opportunity to
meet periodically or otherwise, to
discuss national problems and DO
licies in which all are more or less
interested. The co-operatives, them
selves, know it has another and
equally important purpose. It is
to smooth out the internal difficult
ties incident to the handling of a
5000, 100000 business each year for
more than 100000 members of farm
Cooperative.
In agricultural corporations, as
in private business, individual or
CARNATIONS take the position most
advantageous to themselves on
major questions, some of which are
national in scope. Such positions
are drawn by hard and fast lines,
even where the interest of each
group involved would seem to be
mutual and reciprocal. Leaders of
cooperative thought hold that such
a condition weakens the influence
of co-operatives as whole in mold
ing national policies and public
sentiment.
How circumspect the national
chamber must be in creating unity
of thought and purpose among the
dozen or more great co-operatives,
some of which, such as the Nation

seen in the assurance that the
chamber is not to be a superorgan-
ization and is not to have any
power except by unanimous vote of
the membership.
Each association or federation is
to retain its individual sovereignty
and power of independent action.
Tie rules permit the utmose free

Cancer is a Preventable
Disease Experts Declare
Sanitary Precautions Has Much to
Do with Malady-Public Must
Cooperate

st. Paul, Aug. lott is probable
that as many cases of cancer can
be prevented as cured"
This is the hopeful title to a
statement issued by the Minnesota
State Medical Association in a bull
letin today. It declares that the
element that often makes cancer
a fatal disease is delay in having
1t treated" When the public be-
comes as suspicious of the exis-
lance of cancer as it now is of
tuberculosis, great strides will be
made in checking the progress of
the disease. In Minnesota 2,9O1
people died of cancer last year.
Unlike most other diseases" de-
clares the statement issued and ap-
proved by the educational commit
tee, against which science is was-
ing organized warfare, there are no
sanitary precautions which have
any effect upon cancer. The di-
sease occurs without reference to
the healthfulness of the environ
ment. The rich and poor are af-
fected alike. The ignorant and in
telllgent are equally victims.
over and over again attempts
nave been made to connect the eau
satlon of cancer with some article
OF food, either eaten to excess, in
sufficiently eaten, or harmful be-
cause of some property which it
was supposed to possess or be de-
fcient in. Many years ago the
cause of cancer was supposed to
be tomatoes; later, pork; lust now
IL is salt. When subjected to the
cold analysis of science every the
DRY which has thus far been put
forward to connect cancer with
food has broken down.
Cancers in some locations can
be prevented very simply. It is
said by reliable authorities that
cancer of the mouth and tongue
never occur among persons who
keep their teeth and mouths in
good and clean condition. The
jagged tooth, the ill-fitting dental
plate, rubs until it makes a sore
which may develop into cancer.
Sores upon the lip may be pro-
duced by holding a hot pipe too
much in one position. Cancers of
the breats are believed to be due in
part to stagnation of the natural
secretions. Cancer of the stom-
ach is believed to be induced bv
too hot foods, too much strong al
chol or any other abuse of that or
gan. Skin cancers may be caused
by continual irritation of moles.
The way to prevent cancers caused
in any of these ways is to avoid
the conditions which lead to them

Gently the belief has developed in
medical circles that exposure of
the skin to that portion Of the suns
rays known as the ultraviolet APP
parently aided the body to develop
an immunity to many of the in
fictitious diseases. In this category
is the common cold, which flourish
es at those seasons of the year
when the sun is farthest away from
us and when, because of cold and
Indictment weather, we expose but
little skin surface to the sun and
then but very short periods Of
time.
"The feminine portion of the pub
lie, at least, might have been slow
to adopt sun treatments general
ly because of the idea that the
suns rays harm the skin texture
but suddenly it became the fashion
to acquire dark coat of tan. Now
tan has to be obtained at all haz-
ards. The cosmetic manufacturers
have risen to the occasion so that
heliophobes can obtain theirs from

"As with most things that sud-
denly become all the rage, sun
baths can be and frequently are
overdone. A badly sun blistered
skin may and frequently does re-

to the sun before the cuticle has
had a chance to acquire the pro-
tective coating of tan. When sun

condition may result.
