strates again the Importance of Cal

found that the dreaded Milk Fever
disease, which occurs in a great
many dairy herds, can be cured by
the use of solution of Calcium
Chloride. They have found that in
jecting about go to 100 &C. of a 2O96
solution of Calcium Chloride soon
puts the animal back on the road to
health.
AS a matter of fact, in several
cases where the air treatment had
failed to produce results they saved
the animal by injecting the Calcium
Chloride. According to their reports,
in some cases, the animal had re-
covered within six minutes after
the material was injected into the
blood stream.
This should emphasize to the
dairyman the Importance of watch
ing very carefully the Calcium sup

Jim Arrives by Plane,
in Time for Christmas

TT WAS Christmas eve. The Gar
ner home radiated the spirit
and happiness of Christmas. Soft
lights filed the rooms; holly
wreaths hung in the windows, and
a great fire was blazing on the
hearth. There was a family re-
union; the children were all there
now except Jim, and they were
looking for him at any moment.
Then the telephone rang and
Jim's voice came over long dis
tance. He had taken a later train
and had missed connections at Chi
cagO-there was no way of getting
there tonight. He expressed the
deepest regrets; he had thought
there was plenty of time to pick
up few last-minute gifts between
trains.
Why, they just would be lost
without Jim, they were all saying
presently; sunny, careless Jim,
who always was the life of the
crowd. And he would miss the
very best part of Christmas with
them. 1t was just too bad this
had to happen. But Jim, dear old
Jim, always would be careless.
Then the telephone rang again,
and they found he would be with
them after all. A passenger plane
was leaving Chicago and he would
be home in two hours. The new
mode of travel would bring Jim in

Let me emphasize again that the

strengthened if the public will know
how to use the hospital to the best

Southern Pines
Grow Rapidly

A great deterrent to growing tim
Der in the South, according to a re-
cent Forest Service bulletin, is lack
of definite and authoritative infor-
nation on the rate of growth of
Southern pines when properly cared
for. The United States Department
of Agriculture has therefore pub
lished the results of recent studies,
showing that timber in the South
may be grown quicker and much
more profitably than is generally
supposed. The booklet, Rate of
Growth of Second-Growth Southern
Pines in Full Stands (Circular No.
