The Exeter Times, 1920-2-5, Page 2IT TURNED TO
BRONCHITIS, t.
Many people have bronchitis and don't
know it...
Don't even know the danger of nes
sleeting it.
Bronehitis starts with a dry, short,
painful, hacking cough, accompu,nicd
with rapid wheezing, and a feeling of
oppression or tightness through the chest.
At first the raised -up phlegm is of a
light color, but as the trouble progresses
it becomes of a yellowish or greenish
color, and in very often of a slimy nature,
streaked with blood.
Bronchitis should never be neglected.
Pneumonia or Consumption may follow
if it is.
E.E. Bo cer Edmonton, Alta.
Mr.3; , o , ,
writes: -"Last winter I took a severe
cold which turned to bronchitis. The
doctor I had could not seem to relieve
it, and I had been treated by him for
eight weeks. Then, a friend came in
and recommended me to try Dr. Wood's
Norway Pine ,Syrup, After taking one
bottle I was greatly relieved. I got two
more bottles and can say it has quite
cured. me. It has stopped my cough
and my spitting up lots of phlegm.
Have not had an attaek since. I can
assure you I would not be without a
bottle of it in the house. It has helped
my children also. T think it isnat wonder-
ful remedy for coughs or lronchitis."

Tractor Things to Know and Do.
Keeping the tractor fit means con-;
stant care and attention on the part
of the operator, Like a good horse,;
it should be handled and cared for by;
one man who can become familiar
with it and know its individual re
quirements. While it is an inanimate
object, it responds to intelligent treat -1 Further, the operator should'

the tractor is understood, better
judgment will be used in its care,
book The instruction w hich accom-
panies every tractor represents they
tractor -maker's best judgment as to
the care of the machine. It also en -9
abies the operator to become familiar
with the tractor's construction and
principles,, Under no circumstances
allow it to become misplaced or lost.
The repair -parts list, which gives
cuts, description and number of parts,
is nearly always furnished with the
instructions and this book therefore
becomes indispensable in ordering
new parts or repairs.
•• The greatest foes of the tractor are
friction and wear. This is true of
other machines but it is doubly- true
of the tractor, because of the heat
in the cylinders which must be lubri-
cated and on account of the heavy
pressures which are occasioned by the
explosions within the cylinder. The
lubricating properties of oil are des-
troyed by the heat within the cylin-
pride in .its appearance Y This daily
cleaning is more valuable in bringing
to the attention of the operator loose
nuts and bolts, worn ar overheated
parts, parts bent or out of adjust-
ment, and the like. The tractor repre-
sents an investment probably equiva-
lent to the value of two teams of
horses, and is therefore entitled to as
much attention daily as two teams of
horses would receive.
Spees fic instructions regarding the
care of any particular make of trac-
tor are given in the instruction book
which is sent out -with the machine.
There are, however, a number of gen-
eral rules which apply to all types
and makes of tractors, and these may
be summarized as follows:
Things You Should Know.
1, That your tanks contain 'fuel,
oil and water.
2. That every part is properly lubri-
cated.
3. That all bolts and nuts are -tight.
4. When you have proper fuel, oil
and spark adjustment.
5, When engine is overloaded or
overspeeded.
6. When engine isin good condi-
tion; that is, no carbon deposits, loose
rings or bearings.
7. When valves and ignition are
properly set.
8. When the clutch, brake and gov-
ernor are correctly set.
9. What kind of lubricant to use in
each place.

In marking hens with leg. bands we
have saved time by purchasing the
bands which are made for that pur-
pose rather than making them. Home-
made bands can be constructed of
wire but it takes time and they are
usually not as satisfactory as the
commercial article which sells at a
moderate price. We like the single
coil spiral bands which are made in
several colors. They slip on quickly
and stay. The birds cannot pick them
oose.
The colored spiral bands are useful
to distinguish the pullets, the year-
old and the two-year-old hens. The
early hatched pullets and cockerels
can also be marked with the spiral
bands to separate them from stock
hatched a few weeks Tater. These
spiral bands are also made Mitis a
long lap at a slightly increased ex-
pense. Possibly they might stay on
better but the single coil with the
short lap has proven satisfactory.
The sniral bands are also made
with a double er.'1 and these have the
advantage of being more easily seen.
The :.alum mann bands with' numbers
are laani; in trap-nestings, work or
for designating certain hens of special
value when they are culled to find
the hest egg -laying types. We like;'
the bands the best that are the least'
complicated. One type consists of
double clinches for locking around
the fowl's leg. When once clamped
down with pliers it is not apt to work
loose, There are adjustable bands
made which are suitable for birds of
all sizes but we do not like them as
well as the system of clinching is
more complicated and occasionally we
have had such a band work loose.
Bands that are sealed with ,a soft
metal rivet are valued highly by some
poultrymen who wish to take no'
chance of losing good records by find-
ing hens with missing bands.
Rules of Health for Children.

The following rules in the care and
management of the herd will prove
of value to many farmers who are
new in the business:
1. Keep as many cows as you can
properly feed and care for.
2. Use pttiebeed sires and,. raise
only the bett heifer calves.
3. Use the scales, Babcock tester
and pencil.
4. Grow as much of your feed as
possible.
5. Provide a comfortable and sani-
tary stable.
6. Feed all the good roughage they
will eat up clean.
7. Ilave. faith in your cows and in
the .?<'e business.
Two rum Essentials.

if the owner expects to get the most
out of his products. He would as
soon try .to farm without power as
to d.a without either. A typewriter
Ietter on, letter -head stationery,
mailed promptly, creates a pleasant
impression on the man who has writ-
ten, to enquire about your products.
A camera is a valuable aid in sell-
ing farm products direct. by mail.
There is something convincing about
a picture -something difficult to ex-
press by mere words alone; it seems
as if a'picture adds proof to the truth
of statements made in a letter. I
know beyond all doubt that our cam-
era is valuable in our business.
Probably you will laugh at me when
I say that pictures have at least half
to do with every sale made by mail...
If this is .not true why do the suc-
cessful mail-order houses spend vast
fortunes in illustrating their cata-
logues?
ata-logues?
Although it has been argued times
without number drat farm products
can not be successfully sold direct to
consumer, our experience leads us to
believethat such statements are cir-
culated by local dealers and commis-
sion men who have been lining their
pockets frail both producer and con -
sinner.
READING IN THE
HOME
Country life has broadened in re-
cent years and now occupies a place
much larger than the little round of
daily routine that formerly constitut-
ed the total activities of many folks.
The knowledge and the spirit which
have led rural life out of its old past
came very largely fronin.: homes sup-
plied with. Libraries and reading
tables. We have competent leaders.
who have not had a wide acquaint-
ance with books, but considering peo-'
ple in the mass, it is true that the
reading community is almost invari-
ably the progressive con munity, and
the reading farmer_ an influential one.
The homes with libraries include aux
best homes, while homes that send out
the incorrigible specimens of the race
are generally without helpful books. j
Libraries usually* change the gen-
eral atmosphere of the houiq, for
when the members of tit& household
have the advantage of ideas gleaned,
in reading, their conversation rises;
above the petty things of every day
living that annoy the uuread, and
dwells upon subjects of new interest 1
which carries the mind to things
worth while, Good reading is an effi-
cient alterant for complaining, gos- t
siping and imaginary ill health, and
supplies a person with a reserve from
which to draw in times of sickness,
during, old age, or whenever the hours
are not filled with employment.
Then, too, it is easier to keep the
boys and girls interested in the home
where reading has been emphasized.
Such an interest is a standard anti-
dote for harmful outside influences.
The farmer who takes plains to pro-
vide his home with good reading is
making an investment that will re-
turn larger dividends than any stocks
ever offered by the brokers of the
Stock Exchange.

Living Into Into It.
The agent, Mr. Peters, gave one
last glance round the rooms. They
were desolate -looking rooms, with the
furniture standing about in impossible
places and looking as shabby as furni-
ture always does look when the mov-
ing men have just gone; but Mr.
Peters was used to seeing houses at
their worst.
"It looks some upset just this min-
ute„" he acknowledged, his kind face
full of sympathy, 'abut it will be a
right cosy little place as soon as you
begin to live into it."
"And now," Janet said laughing, as
the door closed behind him, "to begin
to live 'into' it.",
Nora' brushed angry"f tars out of
her eyes.
"I don't see how you can joke over
it!" she cried brokenly. "This little
cheap house on this little cheap
street! But if that were all, I could
stand it. It's leaving behind, all the
memories -and mother's room-"
"I know, dear," Janet replied gent-
ly. She wanted to cry out that she
knew a thousand times better than
Nora, for she never had left home
for college or anything else. But the
only way to be true to the memories
was to carry the spirit of them into
the new home; so she began at once.
Many times in the next week Jan-
et almost grew discouraged. It was
not the little house the house re-
sponded wonderfully. It was Nora,
who steadfastly refused to do any-
thing for her room' or to hang the
pictures, -Janet ' ruefully acknowl-
edged that she had not an eye for pic-
tures, -or to give the new house any
of the lovely touches that she had
loved to give the old one. Janet
could make things comfortable, but
she could not make then distinctive.
And all the time Nora was comparing
the new home with the old.
Curiously enough, it was Leila
Parker who made Nora see. One day
Nora cavae home spattering.
"Leila Parker makee me so mad!"
she cried. "Fier secre a ; came into
my office to -day, and we got to talk-
ing, and the poor girl just bcoke down.
Miss Parker does nothing but critic-
ize her and compare her to that pais-
gon of a Miss Marvin. As if anyone
could do her best when she is forever
being criticized and compared to a
paragon! As if-"
Nora broke off sharply, a startled
look in her eyes.
"What's the matter, Norrie ?" Janet
cried.
But Nora answered only, "Noth-
inThe next day Janet went downtown
for what Nora called an orgy of
shopping. She came back at dusk,
tired and almost -she insisted upon
the "almost" homesick. But at the
living -room door she stopped in
amazement. The pictures had been
hung, there were curtains up, and
flowers where no one but Nora would
have thought of putting them. The
little room' was really beautiful.
"Norrie!" Janet cried.
Nora met her eyes bravely.
"I'ni ashamed., Janet. I've been as
unfair,• to the' little house lie Mies
Parker is to her stenographer, to say
nothing of being horrtibly selfish,
Mr, Peters was right. There's a heap
of difference between diving in a
house and living 'into' it,"

After a Shampoo,
Rub a little liquid vaseline into ,the.
scalp after a shampoo axsd the annoy-
ing dryness will turn into gloss, and
you will be able to keep the hair in
plate.
Address all communications for this department to
Mrs, Helen Law, 235 Woodbine Ave., Toronto.
M. V. B.: You should not be worried
about your hair being lighter in some
place than in others. You havo prob-
ably exposed it to the sun, my dear;
and it has bleached where the sun's
rays have struck it. When you are
working in the sun next suri.mer, pro-
tect it with a big, hat. If you are very
wise, you will do nothing about it, for
it will soon grow out from the roots
and if as I said above you are careful
next summer, it will •noon, I am sure,
take on the proper shade all over your
head.
Until yon are very much older you
should not go driving at night with
your young man friend without an
older person or a girl •companion.• Do
you think you are wise to accept a ring
or aswatch from a boy who is just a
friend? Will not your .,acceptance' of
it imply that you consider your rela-
tion more than that of a friend ? Con-
vention decrees nothing absolute in
that regard but it is my opinion that
presents' of jewellery should not be
exchanged except by engaged couples.
I am very sorry this young fellow is
so jealous. Ask him some day if he
considers it complimentary to you that
he cannot trust you to speak to other
boys. I think jealousy is a kind of sel-
fishness, don't you? It cannot grow
out of a pure love.
Doleful: My dear girl, you are not
the only one to come to me with your
pathetic litble problem about an allow-
ance and e. father who doesn't under-
stand and various pitiful little needs
that you wish to satisfy. There seem
to be lots of you, bless your hearts!
How I wish I could help you all by
giving you that longed -for bit of
money that would spell happiness for
you, I cannot even suggest any sure
way of getting it and the only con-
solation I can offer you is that when
you have girls of your own, you will
understand and keep such misery from
them. Have you had a good serious
talk with your father? Have you told
him of the legitimate needs you have
and how much happiness that little
sum each week would bring you? Or
have you just sulked and been unpleas-
ant whenever you have spoken :of it?
I know a girl whose father just could
not see her side and refused the allow-
ance she needed each week at school,
so she asked him if she might earn it.
And she did, working hours after
school and insisting on doing work her
brothers should have one. Her father
soon realized what it meant to her
and softened. Somehow I feel if you
do your best and are as nice and sweet
about it to year father as you can.. be,
he will give it to you.

Inexperienced: How can one be corn-,

In making up the berth in a sleep-

net hammock between the windows,
and into this you can put some of your
belongings; others can be placed on
the shelf, which is made by folding
up the back of the seat, and a coat -
hanger will be hung against the cur-
tains of your berth. All of this will
help you in disposing of your day-
alothing. -
When you 'are about to retire, draw
the curtains and fasten the buttons.
Some travelers prefer to keep on their
underwear, wearing a kimono over it.
Others prefer to remove all clothing,
changing the undervest .and putting on
a night-dress; over this is worn a
kimono, which you will need is going
to and from the dressing -room.
Shoes and stockings are removed for
the .night, but are worn to and from
the dressing -room. You might provide
a boudoir cap of India or China silk
to wear when the hair needs to be
protected from the dust, but this is
not always necessary.
Experienced travelers rise and make
their toilets early, as the . dressing -

Mineral'Feeds For Hogs.
"If you want strong -boned hogs,
hogs that will carry their flesh well,
give them the feeds to make bone,"
an old hog feeder told me, and this
should be evident to every breeder
who expects to make a name for him-
self in the sale ring or simply as a
breeder of market hogs. A good bone
development is a great asset to grow-
ing' hogs; the lack of it is seen in the
big stock yards where hogs with a
light or weak bone are crushed or
mashed, legs broken or ribs caved in
through shipping and handling.
Mineral matter in the feed, or
available, will produce good bone
"growth if of the proper kind. Most
of the mineral feed eaten by hogs is
utilized in the bony structure or skele-
ton. The grain we commonly feed
hogs contains such a small propor-
tion of the needed mineral elements
that additional mineral feed must be
supplied by some means in order to
properly nourish the bones.
Oftentimes conditions are such that
the hog picks up the mineral him-
self, Hogs having access to lots
°where ashes and limestone are dump-
ed may supply themselves in liberal
quantity of the oalciums. Hogs run -
belongings to the dressing -room and, icing in the woods or woodlot or on
dress there. Make as much use of the pastures; of most kinds commonly

not monopolize it. For example, while Recently I visited the farm of a
traveling on a crowded car last year, well-recognized hog breede_ who
pointed with pride to his big -boned,
well-developed boars and brood sows..
He lays emphasis on strength of bone
in his stock and keeps them in excel-
lent breeding shape. He had a small
piece of woodland and a clover field
adjoining in which he said his hogs
licked up most of their mineral feed
rather than take so much from the
self -feeder.
I have never seen a weak -boned
hog where they have access to pas-
tures. I have heard it said that that
was because the pastured hog got
sufficient exercise to stimulate a good
bone development, which has some
weight, but forage crops contain a
great deal of calcium which enters
or into the bone structure. One breeder
would have given her. The simple told me that he never thought of feed -
a number of passengers were uncom-
fortably delayed by the thoughtless-
ness of two girls who not only took
an unnecessary length of time to snake
their toilets, but proceeded to spread
out their belongings and repack their
suitcases iii the dressing -room floor.
A suitcase should not be carried into
a dressing -room at such a time. A
toilet -case or a Pullman apron will
hold all the toilet belongings.
INTERNATIONAL LESSON,
February 8.
Peter at Lydda and Joppa-Acts 9:
32-43. Golden Text. -James 5: 15.
32-35. As Peter Went Through all
Parts. !Since the conversion of Saul
(ar Paul) the Christians of Jerusalem
and Judaea had comparative peace,
for he had been their most zealous
persecutor. See 9: 31. But persecu-
tion, while it lasted, had driven many
of those who lived in Jerusalem to
seek homes elsewhere. They had ear-
ned the gospel with them and they
founded Christian churches and com-
munities wherever they went. The
church in Jerusalem became a mother
church and had a care over its daugh-
ters, and so the apostles went out
from time to time to visit them, We
can imagine how great an event, `in
one of these Iittle communities of the
country towns, the visit of Peter, or
John, or James would be, and how eag-
erly looked for. Itis aainteresting con-
jecture -that Philip, who knew the
country towns so well, and who lived
in Caesarea, niay have told these stor-
ies of himself and of Peter to Luke,
who was Paul's companion when he
visited him in Caesarea, and when
Paul was a prisoner there (Acts 21
0. 23' 33)and Luke as we know, ..
when he came is graphically describ-
ed, as if told by an eye -witness -the
upper chamber, the still form of the
dead, and the widows weeping and
showing the "coats and garments
which Dorcas made."
No queen ever had a more honor-
able burial than that which they
tribute of tears which they gave as
lavishly was the highest praise.
