IL MIDDLETON Dr. Middleton will be glad to answer 'all questions on Public Health matters through this cotwmn, Address him at Spadina Heuse, Spadina Crescent, Teronto, Ont, Is there any connection between sleep- ing sickness and influenza? An interesting __ investigation is Yeing carried on "at present by the United States Public Health Service to try and establish this point. The in- vestigation was prompted by the fact that a large percentage of the recent cause of sleeping sickness followed influenza. The tyre of sleeping sickness that we reead so much about on this contin- ent, appears to have different causative agent from that of the sleeping sick- ness of the tropics. In Uganda. Central Africa, for instance, there are large tracts of country now practically des- erted where once there was a teeming populaton, the ravags being caused by an organism n the blood due to the bite from the tsetse fly which conveys the disease from the sick to the healthy. No other bting flys, so far as is known convey this disease, and the tsetse not being found at any rate n the tem- perate regions of this continent, can- not b held responsible for the disease which is comparatively prevalent here. This is why some confusion results from the term sleeping sickness, in both cases, due no doubt to the sim- ilarity of the symptoms. Officials of the Public Health or vice admit that there is little kown so far concerning this sleeping sick- ness or encephalitis lethargica, as the disease is called in medical circles, but officials are of the opinion that reports concerning its prevalance have been magnified. Surgeon General Cum- ming in this regard points out that the disease is rather easy to confuse with some other diseases. In an in- vestigation made during the 1918-19 epidemic, twenty-two per cent of the supposed cases had to be excluded as being really cerebro-spinal meningitis, brain abscess, acute alecholism and other diseases. : THe disease appears to be only rarely communicable. Not a single secondary case is known to have oceur- ed in the immediate families of the patients reported in 1918-19, al®oy some nine hundred persons ware ex- nosed. The fatality is rather high. Of the one hundred and fifty nine cases. studied, there were forty-six deaths. It is interesting to note that the peak; of the outbreak of 1918-19 was reached § in New York City in January, in Vir- ginia in February and in Louisiana, Texas and Illinois in March. Whether this progress was related to the season of the year or was merely a result of the spread of the disease, is not known. The disease is slow in devel- oping and long in duration. The period | of convalescence is variable, in some cases recovery is completed within, two weeks after the subsidence of the § acite symptoms, but in others it is' prolonged and leaves its recor d on the mind, on certain muscles and on the nerves of the cranium. so far nothing has been found out as to the relationship between influenza and sleeping sickness. cent investigation whieh is now under way will, it is hoped, shed some light on this yoy. y Ip matter. : AGP BUTE SHREIHOGRE ewes Dick Trist : Bryden Livery, Transfer © and' Exchange Bara DRYDEN ~- cE HHERL EE YS PRBEo LA ONT. ; & a I } i T 2000006650008 550000004060 A.].GARDINER General EAGLE RIVER, ONT. ---- hMerchant PWV Gre PGP IB AGENT FOR - Cockshutt Plow Go.

In friable soils the 'weeder' is a useful implement for that purpose. The 'tilling' harrow ims also satisfactory for comparatively loose soils and is preferred as a weed de stroyer on firm or clayey land. Weeds are irregular in time of germination; consequently it is mecessary to apply the weeder or harrow frequently throughout = the growing season. Potatoes, or fields of corn and cereal grains when sown with a drill, may advantageously be cultivated with such implements once or twice before the crop distinctly shows above the ground and again, with corn and ordinary grain crops, w. or six inches high. heavy harrows ordinarily in use will do little damage to the potatoes, corn or grain plants if the land is not wet, benefits the crop in addition to the de- struction of the weeds. For perennial weeds, or seedlings latively broad shares is needed hoed crops. The dise is a favoured implement for destroying weeds summer fallow or in preparing seed. bed.
