DUNGANNON: During the heavy electrical storm which passed over Dungannon Saturday night, Dr. Vokes' house was struck by lightning which came through the roof of the Health Service of the Canadian Medical Association. ASTHMA Asthma means a panting, there is shortness of breath sometimes to the point of extreme distress. Asthma and hay -fever are two similar condi- f Hous. When it is the nose that is affected we call it hay -fever, and when the bronchial tubes are.invol- wed we say it is asthma. - , The condition is frequently due to the sufferers being hypersensitive to. some protien. Proteins are subs- tances such as the white of egg, they of meat and 1r'epercentage •nr a a fol g are also t gees' and o im 1 substances' 'other au a e -present in the pollens of grasses and 'flowers in the dandruff emanation from animals and also in duet. Bac- teria - or germs contain proteins. 'For reasons which we do not under- stand, sone 'persons become hyper :sensitive to one or more kinds of protein. The protein may be .breath- ed in the form of pollen or dust. It . may be eaten in food;Ror it may be . present in bacteria which are living in' the body. This explains why some subjects of asthma have an attack if they ap- proach a horse; these individuals are hypersensitive to the emanation from the horse. Another subject has an . attack if he' uses a feather pillow or sleeps an a horse -hair mattress, and another' still, if he eats an egg. '.The reason is the same in 'all these cases, a hypersensitive condition'to some patricular protein. to ad valorem, duties on many Imes iiia forted from United• Kingdom and United States. Knitted goods of all •kinds sub- jected to higher duties. Tariff increases on boots, shoes and slippers will hit United States on leather footwear and United King don on felt slippers. General tariff on boots -and shoes, pegged or wire fastened, is raised to 35 per cent, and on other boots and shoes, slippers and insoles of any material to 40 per cent., while British duties are in- creased to 25 per cent. on the latter class and are unchanged on the fer- nier. • Paper •duties are jacked up, while dravrback, on paper used in maga- zines is struck out. 1Duty on hops is increased by 800 per cent., from 4, 6 and 7 cents per pound under the British preferential, intermediate and general tariffs,. re- spectively, to 12, 20 and 24 cents per pound. All dumping duty provisions are brought into conformity with the. Ryckman act now before Parliament to stop dumping of goods in Canada at slaughtered prices. This is aimed particularly at Aanerican goods which are foisted upon the Canadian mar- ket at distress prices. .Customs tariffs are aimed to pro- hibit importation of goods from any country not a contracting party to the Treaty of Versailles.. This is To expinde Russian anthrac!;te, ship- ment of which have been coming into Canada during the past year. Countervailing duties against Uni- ted States imposed by the Dunning Budget are repealed and special dut- ies are imposed against the eomnMo- dities and animals which were cov- ered by the countervailings. These in - elude horses, living animals such as cattle, sheep and lambs, live hogs, fresh meats, prepared or preserved meats; eggs, butter, peanut buttery hops, oats, oatmeal and rolled oats, rye, wheat, wheat flour and semo- lina, cut flowers, potatoes, soups. Duty is increased on gasoline, pet- roleum, etc., from British Empire countries from 11 to 2 cents per gallon, but it remains unchanged from other countries. This is aimed at one British company which has no refinery in Canada. Other compan- ies have undertaken not to increase pri^e to consumers. Duties on common window glass substantially • increased. This af- fects $1,000,000 annual imports from Belgium. Provision is made for a duty on tractors to foster Canadian industry. 1 .J The sufferer from hay -fever or as Enna should have his physician deter -tine whether or not his conditions is due to his being hypersensitive to some protein and if so he may hope or relief either through avoiding the responsible protein or by having him- self desensitized. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College Etreet, Toron- to, will be answered personally by letter. The treatment of these cases in or- der to prevent further attacks de- pends upon finding out first of all -whether or not they are hypersensi- tive to some- protein. If a certain • protein is found, then it may be pos- sible for the subject to avoid that protein. If eggs are responsible they can be 'eliminated from the diet and, i- mthe course of time the h, persons , Y 1 tive -conditions' generally 'disappears, It is possible to desensitize the sub- ,ject for the responsible protein in certain instances. This is done for '':hose "'suffering from hayfever when 'by 'means of the necessary tests for hypersensitiveness, the pbllen respon- sible has been found: There is else the group' of !cases made. up; :chieflyi1 of •:older persons' in which the condition,, is not due to any hypersensitiveness to • pr, oteins. Simco cases are frequently ashocii,.ted ;with heart and kidney disease.

NEW DEER LICENSE Donald' McDonald, Deputy, Minis - tor of Game and Fisheries for the. Province of Ontario, announces that the Department this year will com- ' pel ail applicants of farmers lic- enses to first make a declaration as to the location of their land hold- ings, acreage theyown or rent and the extentto which they are work- ing it. This is an abuse which the Department is determined ' to cor- rect and which prevailed in differ- ent sections of Northern Ontario for a number of years past. The un- licensed killing of deer for -their ]tides will also be stamped out. To all forms • of deer licenses to be is- sued this year has been added a hide shipping coupon and this cou- pon must be used in the case of a hide shipment, ROUND-TRIP MARTYRS A Russian was being led to exe- cution by a squad of Bolshevilk sol- diers one rainy morning, ; "What brutes you Bolsheviks are" grumbledthe doomed one, "to march me through a rain like this." i'I3aw about us " retorted Dile of the squad.

(London.) • WONDERFUL MOTHER NATURE Prompted by curiosity, a farmer had grown a crop of flax and had a tablecloth ntacle of linen. Some time later he remarked to a visitor at dinner. "I grew this tablecloth my- self." "'Did you really?" she exclaimed. "How did you manage it?" It was obvious the guest had no idea of how tableclothes came into being, so the farmer, lowered his voice and in a whisper replied, "If you promise not to give the secret away, I'll tell you —I planted a table napkin!" An Effort will be made by Threshin to Reduce Fires caused g Machines. TORONTO, Sept. 17.—Legislation will be sought at the next session of the Ontairo Parliament to safeguard farm property from fires caused by threshing machines, Fire Marshal Heaton stated yesterday, in making public the fact that the 1930 thresh- ing season was the most disastrous in the history of the department. Approximately 8225,000 damage was caused to farmers' barns and dwellings between August 1 and Sep- tember 10 and of this amount about $125,000 was recovered through fire insurance. "In this period we had reported to us 23 separate fires resulting in the destruction of six dwellings and 27 barns with a large number of small outbuildings," said the fire marshal. A circular letter has been sent to all threshing machine manufactur- ers and other interested parties; in- forming therm that as the threshing outfit as a whole has been responsible for an enormous loss, a request would be made at the next session /11•11111111MMIZEIMOMMIMINIS 1.110.1•1•9, .103016.20110.71.. of the Legislature for a bill to pro- vide regulations that would mater- ially assist in keeping down the fire loss. "By far the largest proportion of these fires have arisen either in the. _ separator or tate blower pipe," said Mr. Heaton in his letter. "In moat instances the separators have been destroyed, but in cases which have been under investigation, careful ex- amination of the saved separators has failed to reveal any evidence of fire Within tate -machine itself." The fact remains, however, that the threshing outfit 'lis, a whole has been responsible for an enormous loss."' A. conference of threshing machine manufacturers and machinery users will be held at Parliament buildings on Friday, Oct. 10, with the object of receiving suggestions as to what fort- the proposal legislation should take. The proposed bill would re- place the 'steam • threshing engines act at present 'in force, 5.,..E AVISMINNIMINIONIM..M0111. CO OPERATION r L .^' ' � � ' i 111 h'y ;G1ir�•. � I IIf I.
