QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

A. D. R.: Does incubation for
whooping cough prevent it or does
it just make i lighter
Answer: In about so per cent
Of all cases, it prevents whooping
cough altogether. When the immu-
nization from the serum has not
been complete and a child catches
whooping cough, the case is usually
a light one.

poleon also had such fainting at
tacks. They have been called cpl
lepsy. 1t has been a matter Of
wonder that an cpilcptic could dis
play such vigorous intellectual ca
pacity as Napoleon. Some cpilep-
tics are men of intellect, but it is
not the rule. Julius Caesar is an
ether historical character of SUI
.preme intellectual attachments who
is said to have had epilepsy, Gle
hath the falling Sickness" as Casca
says.
Considering the slow pulse, it is
probable that the cryptic doctor
meant that Napoleon had heart
block, or Stokes-Adams disease.
This is q condition Of the heart
muscle which constitutes a block Of
the muscular impulses going over
the heart muscle. The block makes
the ventriclcs beat on their own
rhythm which is quite slow-as
slow as 20 minute, and conse-
quently every once in a while the
brain is entirely deprived of blood
50 that the sudden faintinp attack
occurs.
Often the condition passes away
and the heart beats normally and
the fainting attacks cease.

EASIEST TIME TO CURE DRAFTS
IS when YOU BUILD!
WATCH THESE Three PLACES IF
YOU WOULD STOP Them

There is just no excuse for drafts in your
new home, because drafts are definitely durable
if you will watch just three places-and all
three places are around your windows.
First and foremost offender in the making Of
drafts in your new home is the window frame.
Now you've never bought window frames so
you don't know anything about them and that
is one reason why so many home builders have
drafty windows, because they were careless
about the window frame that went into their
homes. Now, we aren't going to go into detail
about window frames. We just want you to
remember that the most important thing
about a window frame is how it joins the wall.
If it makes permanent leakproof weather.
tight joint with the wall-fine and dandy. If
it doesn't, you'll have drafts, no end of drafts.
How can you make sure about weathertight
joint? Just specify that the window frames
used in your new home have wide blind stop
construction This special construction should
be familiar to your contractor.
Proper Fitting Necessary
Next in Importance to window frame is the
"iuuO" SASH \IlS pdII VI IilS WluuOW tHdt
moves within the frame) Many home build
ers buy window frames in one place and sash
in another with the result that the sash and
frame never fit properly in spite of trimming
and cutting on the job. And sash that don't
fit properly cause drafts, and more drafts The
modern trend is towards what is known as
complete window units that are delivered with
frame and sash precision fitted to each other
at the factory. Many of these window units
are even complete with weatherstrip. In any
event be sure that the window sash are fitted
properly to the window frame and you'll elimi-
nate another big source of drafts.
Glass Cools Air
Now here is the third cause of drafts. It's
warm air being quickly cooled against single
pane of glass. The cold air then drops to the
floor. This flow of air causes drafts. What's
the cure? A double pane of glass. Some win
dows are made so that this double pane of
glass fits on the inside of the window, while
the most common is the ordinary storm win
dows which are hung on the outside. Whether
your double glass is inside or outside, the re-
salt is the same. The glass that is within the
heated room is kept warmer by the dead air
space between the double panes. Result: Warm
air is not cooled so fast: no cool air-no drafts.

deer CENSUS
RANKS FIFTH

The Superior National Forest with a
deer population of $4,000 ranks fifth
among the 161 national forests of this
country in number of deer reported in
the 1939-40 big game census of the
forest service, u S. department of
agriculture. The Chippewa National
Forest, with headquarters at Cass Lake,
has $4,000 deer.
The two Minnesota forests also re-
ported 1000 black bear and LOO moose,
more than one-seventh of all of the
moose on the national forests
The census showed total of l $3.50, 900
big game animals on all of the national
forests exclusive of the spring crop of
fawns, calves, kids, and cubs. The es-
innate includes 10000 antelope, $1,000
black bear, TOO grizzly and $500 Alaska
brown and grizzly bears, 477,000 white
tail, $4,000 mule and $4,000 Columbia
blacktail deer, $4,000 elk, 1900 moose,
$1,000 mountain goats, and $3.50 Big
horn, $500 peccary or javelina, and 780
European wild boars.
The deer population of the national
forests has doubled every ten years
since 1908. OF last years deer increase,
the forest service of the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture estimates that
about three-quarters of a million hunt
ers took some $4,000 deer on national
forest land but that probably 100000
were either taken by such predators as
mountain lions, wolves, bobcats, coyotes,
and stray dogs, or died in the woods.
1t estimated that a mountain lion
may kill hundred pounds of deer
week, or enough venison to equal the
meat diet of from Is to 35 people.
The average increase of all big game
animals on the national forests has
been 282 per cent since 1924. Part of
this increase may be attributed to en-
largement of national forest areas in
the eastern part of the country. The
bulk Of it, however, is due to extension
of management to wild herds and
flocks.
