Robert Burns was “When should, my child have good toilet habits?” There is no fixed time for these things, but if we mean by good training that the child recog­ nizes his needs and asks for attention, we should not expect training in bow* el and day-time bladder control un­ til the second year, and night-time remember that the child never be shamed or blamed. bladder control until the third year. In all this period of training we should should Braise gets better results and is eas­ ier for all concerned. Accident will happen, and the less said the better. Bowel control comes first — at three months of age — after the morning and evening nursing the child should be placed on a warm chamber. He should never be kept on longer than fifteen minutes, and, if necessary, gentle rubbing of the stomach may be tried. As he grows older, we should teach him to ask for the toilet by name when he needs it. The child will probably pass urine with each movement and when the bowel movements are established we should then consider bladder control. Starting at 6 to 9 months of age, he should be placed on the chamber at frequent intervals throughout the day. By this means wc may keep him dry and as lie grows older we length­ en the periods and also teach him to ask fo,r attention. When he can keep dry and ask for attention in the daytime, usually about the eighteenth month, we should begin his night training. Wc get him out of bed at 10.00 p.m., waken him thoroughly and take him to the toilet. He should go back to bed and is not wakened again that night. This simple routine is usually all that is needed to cause good cor trol. Regularity is all important in the training and too often bed-wet­ ting in older life is the result of cith­ er irregular habit training or no habit training at all.

USE OF FERTILIZERS IN THE DOMINION Experimental work to economic employment of in Canada is carried on provinces of lhe Dominion by Experimental Farms Branch of Dominion Department of Agriculture. The results of these investigations, states the Dominion’ Agricultural Chemist, C. H. Robinson, are of value in furnishing the grower with infor­ mation which serves as a guide in his selection of fertilizer mixtures and general soil management. Suggestions with respect to the fertilization of special crops under varying soil and climatic conditions arc made, but such suggestions must of necessity be very general in character. It is noteworthy, however,'due to close co-operation between Domin­ ion and Provincial institutions and Provincial Fertilizer Boards a greater uniformity in recommendations has been possible. The Provincial Fertil­ izer Councils, or advisory boards, ar'e composed of Dominion and Provincial scientific agricultural institutions- and prominent manufacturing concerns. These officials meet once a year and discuss the results of fertilizer and soil investigational work, and, thought desirable, amendments to previous recommendations are made. As a result, the number of fertilizer analyses considered as being adequate to meet average requirements has been greatly reduced within the last few years, and the lower grade mix­ tures are apparently becoming less popular with the grower. As evidence of this trend in the use of fertilizers, it may be pointed out that of the 60 various analyses sold in Canada during the past year about ten furnished the greater bulk of the fertilizers used, and of these the sales of the 4-8-10 and 2*12-6 mixtures ex­ ceeded all others. The recommenda­ tions of the councils may be obtained from the Provincial Departments of Agriculture, and the user of fertiliz­ ers is strongly advised to consult the Councils when selecting his fertilizer requirements.

Tp Go Upstqirs Was Agony There is nothing foi which rheuma tism is a greater handicap than in doing ordinary household duties kneeling, stooping, running up and down stairs. How to overcome that handicap, and relieve rheumatic aches and pains, is the subject of the fol­ lowing letter;— “I have been taking Kruschen Salts for three months. When I started, I had rheumatism in both knees. They were very swollen. I could not rise from a chair without assistance, I could not kneel, and to go upstairs, was agony, Now I can run upstairs, and kneel as much as I like. Since I have taken Kruschen, I can work like a horse.’’—(Mrs.) H.S. Two of the ingredients of Kruschen Salts are effective solvents of uric acid. Other ingredients of these Salts have a stimulating effect upon the in­ ternal organs, and assist them to ex­ pel the dissolved uric acid from the system.
