•Representative during the past few
weeks, it is apparent that many far
mers are experiencing rather heavy
losses Jn litters prior to the age of
weaning. The symptoms described in
dicate clearly an anemic condition

iency and fortunately the proper ad
ministration of this mineral

which are born during the late spring
and summer months as they are out
in the sunshine and have access to
the soil and green food. In the late
fall and winter months pigs- are con
fined in pens, away from direct sun
light and from their supply of min
eral in the soil, Added to this is the
severity of a cold and often damp at
mosphere.
The symptoms of this disease are
f few but definite and usually appear
' when the litter is about three weeks
I of age. The little pigs suddenly be
come unthrifty, they lose weight and
appear listless. The hair becomes
' rough and ' staring, the back humps
up and the curl comes out of the tail.
If examined, the pigs will be found
to be pale and anemic, indicated by
the.' pale and bloodless ears anil the
absence of the natural healthly pink
colour in the skin. Diarrhoea is a
common symptom, usually the result
of the weakened condition' caused by
(the anemia.
p In treatment the farmer should re-
• member that prevention is much bet
ter than cure. After the disease has
developed some pigs may not respond
-to the iron treatment, and remain
stunted and unthrifty, Unfortunately
. it is impossible to feed iron to the
sow in any form that will increase the
quantity of iron in her milk. The
most convenient way of administer-
I ing the necessary iron is in the form
of “Reduced Iron” which can be pur-
' chased at any drug store, Thef very
fiwely1 powdered quality should be
used and the dose is from 15 to 20
grains given every second day.
Absolute accuracy of dosage is not
I important and the quantity can be
roughly measured as the amount of
reduced iron which can be piled up
on a small Canadian one cent piece.
Each pig should be caught, the iron
placed on the back of the tongue,
the pig marked and put back in the
pen. The treatment should be com
menced at about four days of age and
continued until the litter is at least

HEALTH LEAGUE
OF CANADA
(Organised by the Canadian Social
Hygiefte Council, 105 Bond St.,
Toronto)I
One person out of every three dies
ahead of his or her time of diseases
which could be prevented, Soutid au
thentic estimates shows that from two
■ to three percent of the population is
conhtually on the sick list^. Of these
between 91 percent and 96 percent
arc ill enough to be disabled so that
between 1,8 percent and 2.9 percent
: (let us estimate conservatively, 2 per-
cent) of our population is always too
sick to work. Two percent of Can
ada’s population is 180,00S persons
and that is an expensive and danger
ous sick list.
Public Health Officials agree that
sickness costs the people of Canada
over $311,000,000 per year, almost
nine-tenths of this is a direct charge
upon the individual. But the loss in
man power is infinately more stagger
ing. Canada needs' a larger popula
tion, " Yet she is allowing., so many
Canadian, lives to be taken by disease
.that an estimate places the loss in the
‘ future -earnings, cf those sacrificed at
over $500,000,000 per year.
These statements are made by Dr.
Gordon Bates, General Director of
the Health League of Canada in a
recent article in the current number
of the Canadian Public Health Jour
nal advocating the necessity for na
tion wide health education in Canada.
“The problems of sickness and
health have more than a personal sig
nificance. They have a social signi
ficance and an economical one. The
country with the highest sickness rate
and the highest mortality rate is prob
ably, at the most, a backward coun-
I try” Writes Dr. Sates.
“If we allow our babies to die for
lack of clean milk or because our
mothers do not feed them properly
we retard, by our neglect, economic
and social progress. Similarly, if in
stead of running into debt to build
hospitals and 'asylums, because of an
adequate community conscience we
adequately support our health depart
ments, train our physicians in pre
ventive medicine and keep our cit
izens alive to the need of spending
money as it should be spent to con
serve health, by so doing we speed
up economic and social progress.”
Referring to the toll of deaths from
preventable diseases, Dr. Bates cites
the instance of diphtheria with up to
13,500 cases in a single comparatively
recent year. These cases have result
ed in as many as 1200 deaths, al
though in the year 1933 this was re
duce dto 200. Typhoid Fever was
responsible for over 1,100 deaths in a
single year recently. In the year 1933
there were only 280. Tuberculosis'
killed 7,000 in a single year and the
toll of cancer has increased to 10,000
in a single year. Heart disease has
increased to 14,000 in a single year
and from 1200 to 1300 mothers die
in childbirth annually.
Referring to the efforts of the Fed
eral Government and the Provincial
Governments to inaugurate a greater
campaign of health education Dr.
Bates wrote “the conference of Min
isters in Ottawa last May Xvas aptly
styled a Cabinet of Health for Can
ada. In the meantime it seems to
me that individuals and organizations
interested must do everything poss
ible to call to public attention the
facts of hcalh and the need for health
educaion. Education as to personal
health must be to a degree futile if
we do not build up official machin
ery in the form of well staffed de
partments of health covering, not on
ly a portion of the Dominion but the
entire Dominion, not limited to a few
of the wealthy municipalities but cov
ering poorer municipalities aud rural,
eve nsparsely settled Canada as well.”
Stressing the need for Government
interest in National Health, Dr.
Bates writes “I suggest that it is ne
cessary to hammer Into the minds and
consciousness of he average man who
votes, elects and is elected to mtr
municipal councils, our legislative as--
semblies and our Dominion Parlia
ment the need for health education..
I suggest that this is necessary be
cause the average man who is as yet
unaware of the significance of com-,
munity health is sensitive to any in
fluence which touches his personal
pocket-book and hence in some de
gree to anything -which deplets the
community pocket-book. As a mat
ter of fact anything that affects the
oemmunity financially in the long run
does affect the individual.” 1

saulting her husband): “I asked ’iin
