SCOURS IN SMALL PIGS (Experimental Farms News) Common scours, an ailment of Suckling pigs gives hog producers considerable trouble and may cause heavy losses lit small pigs unless pre- cautions are taken to prevent it, This ailment is most likely to affect winter and early spring-farr9wed litters cloSe- ly confined in dark, damp, and chilly buildings, says H. Wilson, Dominion Experimental • Farm, Lacombe, Alta. When...nursing pigs become chilled, an attack of scours is likely to result. in some instances the udder of the sow 'becomes affected with mastitis or garget, resulting in milk being secret- ed that is unhealthy for pigs, It usually causes fatal scouring. Infec- tion from germs which are commonly associated with filth is also respons- ible for digestive disturbances result- ing in diarrhoea and other troubles. However, over-feeding or sudden changes in the feed of the sow are probably' the most important causes of pig scours. At the first sign of scours the sow's feed should be re- duced one-half at least, and if she is receiving barley it should immediately be removed front her ration. A light, thin slop of shorts and lime-water makes the most satisfactory diet for the sow until the little pigs are better. It may be necessary to keep the sow on restricted rations for three or four days, Lirrie-water can be convenient- ly made by putting a half pound of quicklime into a pail of clean water, stirring it thoroughly while slaking is in progress and then allowing to the lime. to Settle, Removal of irritating substances. from the bowels should be by the use of caster oil, Pigs that are less than one week old should be giVen a tee, spoonful of castor oil, and those over a week old one tablespoonful, If the diarrhoea persists, small quantities of lime-water may be used to advantage. A tablespoonful administered to. each little pig daily should be sufficientto alleviate the inflammation in the in- testines. • The best treatment will be of little value unless the pigs:: are immediately removed to clean, dry quarters, If swine dysentery has become es- tablished in a herd, the pigs showing signs of sickness should be placed at once in another pen separate from the healthy ones. When any of the healthy group, sicken, they should be removed, BLOOD DONOR CLINIC SETS A NEW RECORD (Continued from page one) • Miss Norma Dinsley and Mrs, Robt, Spittal. Mrs. A.

This did not stop those who had been notified reaching the clinic. here. Some had to shovel their way out and in the West= field district ,where the storm did its worst, a call was made for the county plow to clear the road so that the donors could proceed on their mission. Great co-operation. The next clinic will likely be held on March 22nd and it ish, hoped that weather conditions will be favourable as many more ,donors will be required from the district, If you have not listed as a donor, now is the time, CURLERS HOLUM A ROUND ROBIN Play-offs Start On March 6th There has been much \activity at the Curling Rink this season with sixteen rinks taking part in a round robin series.

The change will be effective also on all lines of the Trans-Canada Telephone System, Two main results are expected front this change—the added convenience of the longer night rate period, and les- sened congestion on war-busy lines which, because of material shortages, cannot be extended. Further, of course, there will be an obvious saving to users through the one-hour's lengthening of the night rate' period. BLYTH Regret is felt in tlyth at the death in Goderich of Roy Stonchouse, princi- pal of the Public School there.

WORN OUT CLOTHES ODDS 'N' ENDS MADE OVER In the interests of economy nobody these days is. spending much money on clothes. Instead, every one is try- ing to look as smart as .possible. When every effort is being made to keep down inflation, conserve materi- als and manpower, nothing is too old or worn to be still useful. Men's trousers make one pair of shorts for a six-year-old, with enough left over to fashion a pair for a two- year-old as well. House coats can be cut down and will make two or three dresses for children from two to six years. Nightgowns can. be turned into slips. Odd and ends designated for the scrap bag can 'be converted into many useful articles. For instance, old felt hats make children's slippers, flowers for applique on, wool frocks, children's skul caps, or they can be turned in- side out, the brim cut off and the ,rough edges trimmed with bright yarn to make a new spring bonnet. Leather purses which have outlived their usefulness make fide knee and, elbow patches for trousers and sweat- ers of the youngest fry, SPECIAL SOCKS HELP COMBAT IMMERSION FOOT When survivors of torpedoed ships have been in cold water for some time, circulation in their legs and feet be- comes cut off. This eventually results in a condition known as "immersion foot," a kind of gangrene. To help in combating this infection, the Merchant Navy have in their life boat equip- ment now,- heavy wool socks impreg- nated with vaseline. The knitting of these socks has cbe- come one of the projects undertaken by the Halifax group of the Women''S Voluntary Services. "These socks," according to Mrs. W. E: West and Madame Paul Hamel, directors of the Women's Voluntary Services division of the National War Services Depart- ment, Ottawa, `Sate tube-like in shape to fit any size foot, and are thorough- ly soaked in melted vaseline." In making these socks, care must be taken to melt the vaseline in a double boiler away' front direct heat. The socks are dipped into the pan and the liquid wrung out, Rubbing ordin- ary vaseline on the sticks will not pro- duce the same respite, It is most essential to the purpose for which they are used that they be thoroughly waterproof.
