Modern Treatment Of
Tuberculosis-No. |

In recent years great crusade
has been going on to wipe out pull
monary tuberculosis. Sanitariums
and hospitals have been established
for its treatment by states, counties
and private individuals.
Campaigns for the education of
the public and the raising of funds
for the care of the sick and their
bilitation are constantly carried
on. Communities are organized to
fight the disease. They are lead by
trained workers, physicians, nurses,
and public spirited citizens. Tuber-
culosis is decreasing and the mortal
ity rate has gone down.
! Many physicians have devoted
their lives to the study Of tubercu-
losis and to the care of it's victims.
New procedures have been institute
ed whereby much comfort has been
brought to the sufferers. Not only
have they suffered less, but the time
taken for restoration has been great
! ly shortened.
Surgery plays large part in saw
ing the lives of the tubercular Chest
surgery is now highly specialized.
You know that tuberculosis is caus-
ed by germ called the tubercle bac
illus. The germ may affect any or
gan of the body, but it is most COM
mon in the lungs.
The symptoms may be slight
hacking cough with or without ex-
pectoration. There is loss Of appe-
tite and of weight, accompanied by
chills and fever. Some cases re-
semble pneumonia with prostration
and high fever. An X-ray exanina-
ton of the lungs will reveal char
acteristics of tuberculosis A micro
scopic examination of the sputum
may reveal the bacilli of tuberculo-
/ sis.
The revory may depend in large
measure upon the natural resist
lance of the patient, and how we'll
he co-operates. The treatment con-
sists of complete rest in bed, fresh
air, and a high caloric and nutriti-
Gus diet.
| AS a rule it is not hard to arrest
the disease in its incipiency. Neg
lected it passes from moderate to
advanced stages. Each is more diff
ficult to treat until finally a h
comes and releases the sufferer.
The old name for tuberculosis was
consumption which described it. Un-
treated the lung hollows out and
leaves cavaties. Symptoms continue
as long as cavities exist. The sputum
also continues to contain the very
contagious bacilli. The patient is a
carrier and a menace to the COM
munity.
! If he is ever cured, the TB speci-
alists must take over. They look at
the case from every angle and decide
to resort to surgery. Here is where
the thoracic surgeon must come in.
He may be called upon to close a
tubercular cavity which will render
the sputum negative and the patient
will cease to cough.

NPP Spells More Eggs

National poultry Improvement plan
has proved, says Albert B. Godfrey
of The bureau of animal industry, "a
very efficient program for the identi-
ficaticn, multiplication, and distribu-
ton of superior strains Of poultry
breeding Stock Since the plans were
put into operation, says the U. S. de-
partment of agriculture, the annual
rate of lay in the United States has
increased from 122 to 155 eggs a
year, based on the number of layers
in flocks. Other factors contributed,
but the bureau says the Improvement
plan was a major factor. All states
but Nevada now cooperate in the
plan which involves about 27 million
birds that are tested for pullorum
disease and selected to improve
breeding qualities. The cooperating
states have adopted uniform termin-
olcgy and are obligated to meet at
least the minimum requirements of

Electrification of Farms
Given Impetus Under REA

Thirteen years ago, about 10 per
cent of the nations farms were cleo
trified. Most power companies were
reluctant to take profit risks involv-
ed In making service available to
greater number, and many assumed
that such farms as required electrici-
ty for major operations already had
It.
But congress thought differently,
and rural electrification adninistra-
tioN was established, authorized to
make self-liquidating loans to bring
electric service to unserved persons
in rural areas, says the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture. REA operates
no facilities, has no field Offices, and
makes no grants It's loans are made
on the basis of full coVerage of areas
served.
While 1t was assumed that existing
power companies would use REA
lending facilities to extend electrifi-
cation, such companies borrowed less
than one one-hundredth of the start
ing fund made available 1886.
Today 80 per cent of REA borrow
ers are rural electric co-ops-inde-
pendent, locally owned business en-
terprises-most of which operate dis
trlDutlon systems only, purchasing
power from comme,,c:cl power COM
panies or public agencies.
Relatively little has been loaned to
finance generating plants, transmits
sion facilities. Or the installation of
wiring, equipment, or appliances on
consumer premises.
Loans are made for 35 years at
flat per cent interest, the amount
REA can loan annually being fixed
by congress. Before the war, the pro-
gram was geared to loans of S4O,OOO,-
900 annually, in 1947 alone, however,
REA advanced more than 1925, ,OOO,-
ooO In response to actual demand.

Famous English Bells

Bells have bee-l part Of England's
life for close to thousand years, the
first record Of ben-founding In this
country dating back around A. D.
$40. Bell~fo'lnding is thus one OF the
Oldest crafts in England, a craft
which has changed little in those
THOUSAND years. When an old overseas
zeal has lost it's harmony, or bell
s cracked, it is the English bell
founders who puts things right. Big
Cen weighs 1872 tons, yet is not the
biggest bell i'll London. That distinc-
ton belongs to Great Paul who hangs
a c,ne of the cathedraIs towers and
w::shs 161a tons. Paul is also the
heaviest bell in the empire. These,
however, are little more than hand
bells compared with the great bell of
Moscow, which one presumes still ex-
lists behind the iron curtain. The
weight Of this bell is 128 tons.

At present the radio-beam high
ways Of the sky have definite 1imita-

An American company now has de-
vice which gives ten beams, five in
each direction. A pilot knows at all
times not only whether he is on his
own beam or not, but also how far he
is from his next stop. These lanes are
unaffected by weather or wind condi-
tions and can be flown equally well
manually or automatically.
