WHOOPING COUGH
IMMUNIZATION IS
STILL NECESSARY
Whooping cough is still a serious
killer of babies, often striking them
before they are 3 months old. For this
reason the Health League of Canada
reminds parents that it is dangerous
to procrastinate in immunization
against this disease. This is Canada’s
Twelfth National Immunization Week,
sponsored by the Health League of
Canada, a national voluntary organi
zation in the preventive medicine
field, in co-operation with public
health departments.
In 1953, there were 142 deaths from
whopping cough in Canada, the Lea
gue points out. Most of these deaths
were infant deaths (under one year of
age). In the same year there were
8,520 cases of whooping cough. Whoop
ing cough, even when it does not kill,
is a persistent, racking disease which
is heartbreaking to watch in a small
child. Any mother who has had two or
more children ill with whoopng cough
at the same time will bear witness to
this fact, if she is not too exhausted
to bear witness to anything. Moreover
the lingering after effects of the dis
ease can impair total health.
Dr. R. J. Wilson of the University
of Toronto said, in a recent issue of
Health magazine, published by the
Health League;
“In Ontario, from 1945-1950, thirty-
six per cent of the total (whooping
cough) deaths occurred under three
months of age, sixty per cent under
6 months of age, and seventy-eight
percent under one year. Whooping-
cough vacine, therefore, to be effective
in preventing deaths, must be admin-
Algonquin Bark’s unique Nature Museum attracted more than
50,000 visitors last year, 43,346 from Ontario, 7,057 from 44 States
of the U.S. and Mexico and 854 from 51 other countries. The
museum is part of the extensive Nature Programme carried out
by officers of the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests.
Nature programmes are proving popular also at Rondeau and
Sibley Provincial Parks,—Ont. Dept, of Lands & Forests Photo.
SOW CONCENTRATE
istered very early in life, preferably
at about 3 months of age.”
In recent years it has been possible
to use a single immunizing mixture
against whooping cough, diphtheria
and tetanus. In New York City, where
it has become standard procedure to
start injections of this mixture, at 3,
4 and 5 months of age and a booster
shot at one year of age, whooping
cough deaths declined from an aver
age of 302 per cent in the years 1920—
1924 to an average of 2 deaths in the
years 1950—1953. There were no
whooping cough deaths in New York
in 1952. There are about 160,000 births
per year in New York City compared
to about 190,000 in all of Canada.
Immunization against child-killers
such as whooping cough is neither in
convenient nor expensive. The Health
League of Canada urges all parents
to make contact with their local doc
tors or public health officials and take
steps to eliminate unnecessary deaths
from Canada.

Those Type Errors
It’s gotten so we can’t read any
thing any more without looking' for
and spotting, without too much effort,
errors of one kind or another. Typos
prey so on our mind that we can’t
enjoy reading for pleasure only. Per
haps we ought to adopt the philoso
phical attitude of the Chinese editor
who said something like this: “Ameri
can editor strive to eliminate all typo
graphical errors, but Chinese editor
leave a few so readers will have the
pleasure of finding them.” That’s as
good an alibi as we know for missing
a typo, and furthermore we think
we’ll adopt that attitude, too, and quit
worrying about them.

These days most people work under
pressure, worry more, sleep less. This
strain on body and brain makes physical
fitness easier to lose—harder to regain.
Today’s tense living, lowered resistance,
overwork, worry—any of these may affect
normal kidney action. When kidneys get
out of order, excess acids and wastes
remain in the system. Then backache,
disturbed rest, that “tired-out” heavy-
headed feeling often follow. That’s the
time to take Dodd’s Kidney Pills. Dodd’s
stimulate the kidneys to normal action.
Then you feel better—.sleep better—work
better. Ask for Dodd’s Kidney Pills al
any drug counter. 53
TB PATIENTS AIDED
BY ART THERAPY *
Art therapy is now an established
part of the routine in Victoria, T.B.
Hospitals, according to an article by
Joyce Swannell, art therapist,,, in the
current issue of Health magazine,
published by the Health League of
Canada.
“But this does' not mean that it
works by hard and fast rule,” says
Miss Swannell. “In fact its very es
sence must’ be flexibility. It must be
elastic enough to meet the needs of
each interested person and these needs
are as varied as human personality,
“Miss A, who has dabbled with
paints before wants to be taught tech
nique; Mrs. B. is curious and would
like to understand modern art; Mrs.
C. a well-read and intelligent woman
is anxious to study the history and in-
trepretation of art; little Miss D
wants to paint a pretty picture to
show to her friends; Mr. X. wants
something, anything, to occupy his
mind.
“While the broad aims, relaxation
through creation and self-expression,
have not changed, and while the gen
eral approach is still to encourage
free emotional experiment with color
and to develop the fundamentals of
picture building, the instruction has
been given for the most part to bed
patients. Exhibitions keep everyone
in touch with what goes on in the
room next door. Together With creat
ive’ drawing, painting has proved to
be most helpful to patients who have
too much time on their hands and a
great need to escape from their own
private worlds.”
Fishing Bad When
Fish Too Numerous
Stocking of fish in Ontario’s lakes
and streams isn’t a cure-all but is
only one of the various fish manage
ment tools, according to officials of
the Department of Lands and Forests.
"For warm waters we must rely on
planting small fish. Raising game fish
to adult size in hatcheries costs a for-
tune,” they pointed out. Rearing a
bass to 12 inches would cost an esti
mated "$2.00 to $4.00. Not over half the
planted fish can be expected to be
caught. This raises the average price
of each bass creeled to $4.00 to $8.00.”
In recent years, Ontario has been
successful in transplanting fish such
as the bass from lakes which were
over-supplied and which did not have
the food capacity to . accommodate
such large numbers. The experts ex
plain that in gome cases sportsmen
reported “the lake is full of fish, but
they are all too small. Why not put
some large ones in it?” But that isn’t
the solution, strangely enough. The
problem is solved by netting many of
the smaller fish and transferring them
to less heavily-supplied lakes—thus
giving the remaining fish a chance
to grow.
New Swine Bulletin
Valuable to Breeders
Every hog producer in Ontario in
terested in profitable hog production
Will find much valuable information
contained, in "Swine Husbandry in
Ontario”, a bulletin just issued by the
Ontario Department of Agriculture,
The work of a committee consisting
of staff members of the Ontario Agri
cultural College, the Ontario Veter
inary College and the Live Stock
Branch of the Ontario Department
of Agriculture, the bulletin will prove
to be of real value to Ontario hog
producers be they large <?r small in
their operations.
Chapters on breeds and breeding,
buildings and equipment, feeds and
and feeding, management, marketing
and disease and parasite control will
bring the hog producer up to date on
the latest findings of experts in the
various fields.
According to the authors the appli
cation of the information can result
in swine becoming a profitable market
outlet for coarse grains, milling and
dairy by-products and the by-products
of other industries, All facts and
factors which in the opinion of the
authors will contribute to the produc
tion of a quality product on a profit
able basis have been included.
The bulletin, (No. 500) may be ob
tained from the Statistics and Publi
cations Branch of the Ontario Depart
ment of Agriculture, Toronto, or
through the local Agricultural Repre
sentative.
DIPHTHERIA ANING
THANKS TO TOXOID
Diphtheria is on the wane in Can
ada, pays the Health League of Can
ada, but the fact that there are any
deaths from it at all is an indication
of almost criminal carelessness some
where, The Health League a national
voluntary association in the field of
preventive medicine, is sponsoring
Canada’s 12th National Immunization
Week, Sept, 26 to Oct 2, in co
operation with public health depart
ments.
In 1952, the League points out, there
were 26 deaths from diphtheria. Com
pared with the 1,281 deaths from that
disease in 1924, this shows amazing
progress in preventive medicine. How
ever it should not be forgotten that
the 26 deaths in 1952 were unnecessary
and preventable, while many of the
1,281 deaths jn 1924 could hardly have
been avoided. Toxoid, which provide#
immunity to diphtheria, was not
known and readily available to every
one/ as it is today. At the present
stage of development it should be pos- •
sjble to report no deaths at all from
diphtheria or any of the other diseases
which are preventable by immunize^
tion, says the Health League.
The City of Brantford, Ont., has
not had a case of diphtheria since
1833, What is true of Brantford
equid be true of all Canada, with very
little difficulty. Immunization is a
quick, simple and -inexpensive pro
cedure. Diphtheria, when it strikes,
is neither quick, simple nor inexpen
sive, The Health League urges all
parents to make at least one trip to
the family doctor or health depart*
ment. ft may save many trips later..
