One ounce of it killed a baby, said Dr. Paul Nicholas Leech of the Council on Pharmacy and che- mistry of the A.M.A. There are 16 ounces in each pint. How many adults a pint can kill is unknown but the In other words, the Grade “A” were each worth at least $10more than the Grade “B”'males. R.O.P. males of good type can increase the prciits from your flocks for meat type, eggproduction and egg size. That 'cld adage, “begets like,” familiar to all breeds of 1i re stock, is nowhereput to more practical use than in record cf Performance for poultry in breeding of birds for market meat type as: well as for high egg produc- tion and large egg size. "“B” is 2 cents per lb.- often more. fhus,200 of the progremy of the 2 grade “A”males would be worth $20 more than an equal number of birds from the grade “B”males. It has been proven that“ poultry can combine good meat type and high egg production. Such birds, and there progeny, when sold for meat, bring top prices, much more so than birds that have been bred solely for egg production with no regard for market type. The ability of cockerals of good market type to increas the value of their progeny is strikingly brought out in four matings of Barred Rocks made by one Record cf Performance breeder. Two of these R.O.P. males were Grade “A” for market type and two were Grade“B.” The females in all four matings were mostly grade“ “A,” with a few Grade“B” in each mating. Nothing like the present situation has happened in United States medi- cine in many years, Dr. Fishbein said It has never happened before in such magnitude. The trouble is that the lethal bottles are a form of the most sensational and valuable new medi- cine discovered in many years. In other forms this medicine has perform ed near miracles in treatment of stre- ptococci diseases and gonorrhea. With the same outlay for feed, labour, housing,etc.,you can make more profit from your poultry by using them to head your matings for next year. Or, if chicks are bought, the same results by getting chicks from 'an R.O.P. breeder or an approved hatch- eryman‘yshose feeding flocks are head- ed by R.O.P. males are obtained. A nation wide race with death, its object recovery of more than 700 bot- tles of a new liquid medicine, named Elixir of Sulfanilamide, which has al- ready caused thirty-six verified deaths was described today at the headquar- ters of the American Medical Asso- ciation. Every agent of the United States Ecod and Drug Administration, said Dr, Morris Fishbein, spokesman of the Medical Association, is scouring the country to recover the bottles. By some time tomorrow, said J. 0. Clark cf the Food and Drug Administration it is hoped all the outstanding ship- ments will be recovered. Several men in College laboratories have been spending nights on cots be- side animals which have received some of the lethal substance, and which are watched in hope of a quick analysis of it deadly action.

Dr. Leech said the Food and Drug Act lIces not directly require tests on the safety of a new drug before it is put on the market. The A. M. A.

Dr. Leech said- he has no record that this “elixir” was so submitted. How such a medical disaster could be possible was explained by Dr. Leech. Sulfanilamide was originally found in a red d-ye invented in Ger- many in 1907. It is the chemical ad- ded to the dye to make the color per- manent. Only recently was the curative mag ic disdcvered. As usually. prepared today, sulfanilamide is a white crys- talline substance but it has .to be mixed with other chemicals in order to be administered, col is blamed flat the lethal effécts, although not itself classed as a poie son. danger lies in the fact that large dosages are customarily with sulfian- ilamide preparations.

Tree: 2"-10” in diameter or the more 'vduable species should be sav- ed from breakage if possible when large trees are felled. The large tree should be felled in the direction where least damage will result. This may be done by wedging, pulling it with a nope, cutting off large limbs before felling, or bending the small trees over with a ropeuntil large tree is felled. Farmers who have not fenced thier lot from stock would he weell ad- vised to consider fencing part at least as protection from stock now will mean that there will be a wood lot on the farm 25, 50 and 75 years hence, because small trees always start is a woodlot that is not pastured by stock, A cultivated field or pasture may be squared by taking in a corner of the woodlot. The fuelwood could be cut from the cart in with pasture or cul- tivated field. The woodland area could be increased by including the cleared corner with the woodlot and planting it with forest trees next spring. 1. Dead Trees 2. Unsound and rotting trees 3. Crooked trees 4.

FOR 8 Wheat prduction in England for 51937 has been estimated at 48,832,000 gbushels, which is about 2,600,000 bushels less than in 1936. This idea was used by ahousewife wh 0 had an apartment with an un- comfortably small hall. The walls were painted to carry out the gen- eral decorative scheme of the hall. The black and white floor was copied on the walls and panelled white walls drawn. The effect was a hallway much larged in _size. .Such improvements may now be fin anc’ied under the generous terms of the home improvement plan. When redecorating your home you can partly alleviate this condition by intelligent decoration. A door or a panel may be painted to give the ap- pearance of distance and space. Have you. a small hall in your house which . spoils the entrance to your how .--a tiny space whose was n05 anew pun n01! dunno 0; areas want to push them away. Under the plans as prepared by the company, homes to be built will sell for a sum in .the neighborhood of $3,700,000. Built on large lots with the average about 40 by 150 feet, the homes can be purchased with a down payment in the neighborhood of $700.00. Succeeding payments of ap- proximame $25.00 a month will take care of principal, interest and estim- ated taxes. The company at present has under construction a total of six homes, The first of these now nearing completion is{ a five room; colonial bungalow. With a. living room, 18 feet long and 11 feet 6 inches in width, provision is made for all rooms to be large and spacious. If it is not possible to have all of this type of trimming removed it may be camouflaged by finishing it in the same colour as the main part of the house rathér than the colour of the trim Many a home owner who modem- ized his house with funds obtained under the Dominion Government’s Home Improvement Plan does not wish to make any actual structual changes to the property, confines his rehabilitation to the inside of the building and merely refinishes the outer surfaces. Houses of the Victorian Era are fre quently discouraged to the home-own- er who has decided to modernize but has not the necessary money to spend on the outside of the structure. Trim- ming may brand the house as of the “Gingerbread Period." THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18th, '9‘)?
