GRANT FLEMING, M.D. 0, ASSOCIATE SECRETARY DIPTHERIA CAN BE AVOIDED We know RS much about diptheria as we do about any other disease, in fact, we know more. We know the germ that causes diptheria, we know how the disease is spread. from one person to another; we know how to cure the disease providing treatment is given promptly on the first day, and, lastly and most important of all, we know how to prevent diptheria. . We are indeed in the happy posi- tion of possessing the knowledge which would enable els to overwhelm diptheria and to make it' one of the rarest diseases. We are in a posi- tion to annihilate one of the foes which, for generations, has menaced human life and left a trail of damaged bodies in its wake. To know this is one thing, but to take the necesary action is another. We know how to prevent diptheria, but just because we have this know- ledge, we will not cause diptheria to disappear. Diptheria will disappear when we make use of what we know and not before.

There is a substance called dipth- eria toxoid. When this substance is injected under the skin, it stimulates the body to produce forces which en- able it to overcome the poisons that diptheria germs give off. After a certain number of injections—usually three are sufficient—given at stated intervals, the person injected is pro- tected or immunized against dipth- eria. <Furnished by the Ontario Depa ment of Agriculture) Cattle for the West Bon. Robert Weir, Federal Min- ister of Agriculture, has recently an- nounced a Transportation Policy which makes it possible for farmers in the three Prairie Provinces to es- tablish themselves in the breeding of 'purebred cattle in either the beef or sdairy sections. It rnakes possible the tpayment by the Dominion Livestock Branch of freight charges on carlot shipments of cattle purchased within the Dominion and shipped to any railway point in the Prairie Provinc- se. The shipment must consist of one or more carloads of cattle pur- chased at one time, but a purchaser is limited to one shipment in one calendar year.. The minimum num- ber of cattle in a shipment is twelve mature females or an equivalent weight of cattle should younger ani- mals be purchased. The cattle must be between the ages of eight months and six years and must be from herds that have passed at least two consecutive clean tubercu- lin testa and also the blood test for infectious abortion.

Outbreaks of web The Turnip Aphid In connection witli the control of the turnip . aphid, entomologists ad- vise the planting of two rows of white turnips as a "trap” . crop for this insect. These aphids, which of- ten cause serious injury to young tur- nip plants` through feeding on the leaves, commonly reach Canadian points in the late summer, but they may be expected earlier this year and probably to cause greater injury. Past experience has shown that this insect prefers white to swede turnips, and may gather in huge numbers on a small number of white turnip plants leaving the swedes but lightly infect- ed. The planting of a row of white turnips in with the main crop .at- tracts the aphids to the "trap" plans so that they can be destroyed easily with spray or dust or by being plow- ed under. The turnip aphids or plant lice make themselves apparent in a field through individual plants be- coming stunted in growth and.sick- ly in appearance. Purple blotches may appear on the surface of the leaf and these indicate large colonies on the under surface. These infested plants should be pulled and removed at Once.' which is responsible for about nine hundred deaths each year in Canada. What all those who are responsible for the care of young children should know is that diptheria. can be pre- vented, But everyone should. under- stand also that diptheria will not be prevented unless each child is given the necessary injections of diptheria toxoid whereby he is hnmunized or The responsibility rests with par- ents. The method of preventing dip- theria has been discovered, everyone is being told about it. The family physician is ready to give injections. In many places, the Health Depart- ment furnishes the Diptheria toxoid. All of this is of no value, however, unless each parent or each person responsible sees to it that his own child or each child under his care is protected. Diptheria is a disease which occurs early in life. It is not safe to delay in having children immunized. This should be attended to before the end of the first year, but even if your child is more than a year old and has not as yet, received the necessary in- jections, they should be given with- out delay, It is urged upon all parents not to delay in having all their young child- ren immunized. When that has been done, we can say not only that dip- theria Can be prevented, but also, that it HAS BEEN prevented.

The diet of the expectant mother should be a simple one, partly for her own comfort, as it is well to avoid anything which may upset the stom- ach. Rich, complicated `foods, that are difficult to digest should be avoided. Plain foods is the order of the day. A cup of hot water or tea. before arising is a great help to those who are nauseated. Breakfast may be a simple one or as hearty as the patient can take. It should include each morning fresh fruit, or orange or tomato juice. Eggs should be freely used, and at breakfast is a good time to use them. A whole grain .cereal is the best choice. It may be cooked cereal, or one of the ready -to -eat variety, but let it contain the whole grain. Milk rather than cream, should accompany it. And not too much sugar. For dinner, there should be two vegetables beside potatoes.

Co -,operative Packing Plant The first co-operative packing plant in Ontario was opened. 'recent- ly at Allendale in Simcoe County, by Premier. George S. Henry. The building and machinery cost $195,- 000. The plant holds the hopes of 1,500 'farmers in the counties of Sim- coe, Grey, Dufferin and Ontario foxy their future welfare in the hog -rani- ing industry. The farmer have each contributed". $100 towards the project and arc tinder contract to supply the plant with , their hog output for the next ten years, Modeled . on ° the Cu- operative plants of Denmark and built afteti two years , of preparation, the Allendale plant is claimed by its. manager, Thomas Olsen, a Dane who has been in' Canada for 35 years, to be lite equal of any plant of its kind on the continent.

It has been a generally accepted thing that women's teeth should be in a bad condition after a child has been born. This is not necessary, and if she will take sufficient cal- cium and vitamins A and D she will give her baby good teeth and save her own, into the bargain. Worth working for, isn't it?
