In particular there appears | to be a lack of bone development, due | to a deficiency of lime salts and other bone-forming elements in the body. Lack of exercise and close confine- | ment in damp quarters are predispos- | | ing influencas and are a cause of the | disease occasiomally in foals and | | calves. In pigs the disease occurs general- ly soon after weaning time and par- ticularly in litters born during the | late fall and winter months. At this | time, improper feeding of the young plgs associated with exposure to in- clement weather and close confine- | ment in cold damp quarters combine | . | In accentuating the tendency towards | faulty nutrition and ill-health, which | | are forerunners of Rickets.

Thanks to their extra weight, thickness, and rigidity, they can be laid right over the old roof. (Use 14" Surf galvanized roofing nails). This means big savings in money, labor and trouble. You can rely on these shingles to stand staunch and tight against storm and blizzard throughout the years. Their base is of extra-heavy, best grade roofing-felt, saturated with high grade waterproofing material. These "Giants" for service are strikingly handsome. Their surface is of everlasting mineral in artistic shades of red, green or blue-black. Because of this mineral surface they are highly fire-resistant--never need painting or staining.

He [feels at home among the Presbyter- ians and more especially at, the "Armagh schoolhouse" on Brock street, where he attended the other night to give a welcome to Cooke's new minister. The new Cooke's minister has among his possessions a fine Jersey {ecw and therefore he cannot be num- |bered among the "drys." The clerical hat has not been en- tirely discarded in Kingston. Some of the preachers still wear this "lid," which distinguishes them. The sugar prices are soaring and the housewives are souring. One war that the women all favor is one upon the sugar profiteers. By the way if you want to see a good vaudeville performance you will find it at the Grand all next week. Good citizens will at once clean up their premises and not allow their old paper to blow all over their neighbors' lawns. With Dr. Austin and his St. George's society on guard there will be no chance for Bolshevist teach- ings in Kingston, There will ne doubt now big a big run on roast beef, which should assume popular- ity, even in boarding houses. The mayor of Kingston is an Eng- lishman, but it is told of him that he did not know that Monday last, the 23rd of April, was St. George's day and asked why the flags were fiving on the city hall. Oh, Thomas man! The demand for go-carts appear to be so great that these wee wagons are being stolen off the streets. The occupants, however, are kindly left, being cbneidered of little value. What is the matter with the Bad- niington devotees that they are neg- lecting their play? This is a game that appears to Le strenuous enough cnly to receive notice in the social columns. : Things have come to sucha a pass that even the Children's Aid society, which should be wholly supported by the provincitl government and the municipalities, is asking for financial help. T2is society is doing a great work and should not have to pass the hat around.

To prevent the occurrence of Rickets, one of the chief essentials is maintaining a proper mode of liv- ing for the thother while pregnant and for the young during early life. This entails rational dieting accord- ing to their needs, combinea with comfortable living quarters and a reasonable amount of regular exer- cise and outdoor life in fine weather. ficially on cows' milk, it should be diluted with about one-third water and sweetened with a little sugar, In suitable diet after being weaned. on dry corn, nor on chopped oats composed largely of the hulls, nor entirely on buttermilk. In winter, young pigs should be giver & clean, dry, warm, place to sleep in and the bedding should he changed daily, This is particularly essential in the case of late fall and winter litters. oats free from hulls, corn meal, ground barley and shorts with a lit. tle salt, chalk and charcoal added from time to time. The feed should or bone meal and skim milk is also £é0od. As the pigs increase in size the diet can be gradually changed. They should be allowed plenty of range and pasture in summer. When young pigs are noticed showing a tendency of developing Rickets, the progress of the disease can often be arrested and a eompiete recovery ob- tained, if taken in time, by changing and supplementing their diet with tonies. The diet should be arranged as already described, with the addi- tion of some digester--tankage and bone meal. To the drink can be add- ed lime water and to the feed a tonic composed of sulphate of iron one part, bicarbonate of soda and charcoal four parts. 'inese ingredi- ents are mixed thoroughly togethe: and a spoonful of the mixture added to the feed allowance of each pig once or twice a day. In cases of pronounced Rickets in pigs, where they become chronic runts, they are not worth treating and should be got rid of--C. D.
