Epidemâ€" ics of this disease are most likely to occur dudnvhe late spring or early summer. hen an outbreak does come, it is always difficult to decide which was the first case, and still more difficult to find out where the disease came from. The conciusion is arrived at by the investigator that when a definite case is first diagnosed, there must have been other cases ocâ€" curring previous to it, but these cases either recovered without showing any symptoms of paralysis, or else were unrecognized as infantile paralysis and were treated as scme other conâ€" dition, or not seen by a physician at all. Knowing the possn'oirity of missâ€" ing these cases, it is important that all people, lay people as well as mediâ€" cal people, s{ould know what symr toms raise a suspicion of infantile fu\rn!ysis. One authority gives the ollowing:â€""A moderate or high fever occurring suddenly without known cause, and accompanied by nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea or conâ€" stipation or cold in the head or cough, is suspicious, particuiarly between June and September. This seems to be rather a broad statement, for pracâ€" tically all children under three might have one or more of these symptoms during the summer. lHowever, one thing to remember is that in the early stage of infantile paralysis, there may be neither pain nor paralysis, and pool on May 1st ;Qrepnrato;y to making an attempt to reach the North Pole by airplane.

WE WANT CHURNING Bowes Company Limited, Toronto The experience of a London Townâ€" ship farmer, Middlesex County, with purebred and scrub bulls shows vyery closely the place of the scrub sire, Six years ago he had in his herd eight very even purebred cows that gave him eight bull calves from purebred sire. These wore made sieers and kept until two and oneâ€"half years old, finished on grass aud when sold averaged $140 each,. The next year the farmer was alling and was unable to take his cows a distance to a purebred sire. A peighbor offered him the use of his scrub sire. The progeny from mating from which five steers were kept, fed and marketed under the same condiâ€" tions brought $114 each, although there had been a slight rise in price during the year. This farmer stated that on the five steers he lost $130, in one year, and to the average farmer using a scrub sire on ten females the loss would be $260, from a beef standâ€" point alone. If the daughters of the scrub bull were kept in the herd this loss would show in their calves in lessâ€" er degree. This man claims that as soon as farmers keep an accurate proâ€" fit and loss account the serub bulil will disappearâ€" , _ Too many women endure suffering |that casts a shadow over half her exâ€" listence. An aching back, tired limbs, attacks of faintness, . splitting headâ€" aches need not be a part of a woman‘s life. Such trials indicate plainly that the blood is thin and watery and that ithe sufferer needs the help of a real |tonic such as Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills. Suffering women who have used this | medicine speak of it in the highest ‘terms. Among those who bave been \thus helped is Mrs. Ada L. Harman, IVirden, Man., who writes:â€""Followâ€" ‘ing the birth of a stillâ€"born child a few !yoars ago, I had a very serious time. I was so weak for months that I could ;not walk across the room without a feeling of faintness. 1 had scarcely Istrength enough to siand up, and when 'dresnlng would have to sit down two or three times.

I continued taking the pills and fully regained my former good health. 1 consider Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills a blessing to weak women, and hope my experience will induce some other sufferer to try them." A Peel County farmer‘s experience is as follows:â€""Though wé had been using purebred bulls ‘Tor many years previous to a time about nine years ago, we yielded to temptation on a growthy looking, wellâ€"built grade Shorthorn for which we paid $35 at six months old.

This baby beef brought $169.21. This calf was out of a good grade cow which was herself sired by a purebred bull. The call was also sired by an approved type of purebred sire. In the same stable on similar feeding and treatmont at the same time was a calf also out of.a fairly good grade cow but sired by a grade bull. This calf was dropped Nov. 5th, 1918, and was eold on the same day as the. calf already referred to (Dec. 12, 1919). He brought 19 cents per pound or 4% cents less per pound than his stable mate by the purebred bull and he brought $174.80. He was 4%%& months older, had taken more feed and care, but did not have as good quality and so was not as profitable as his better bred stable mate. These calves were exceptionally well fed, but breeding counted to the extent of 4% cents per pound and enabled the feeder to marâ€" ket his best calf at very close to as mmch money in 44 months shorter time. This is a case where the feedâ€" ing was right in both cases and where the purebred bull was directly responsâ€" tble for the difference. ; The following are actual experiences of farmers on their own farms: Experiences With Scrub Sires. The most convincing argument in favor of the purebred sire instead of the grade and scrub are the actual reâ€" ports which have.been obtained from the use of both tyfaes. Occupation An Aid to Health.

For Sore Throat Use Minard‘sl.Iniment BABY‘S OWN TABLETS ALWAYS IN THE HOME months old they seemed a poor lot, but the buil was kept for another season in spite of our observations. "When the steers were put in to feed when rising two years, as is our custom, the folly of our selection most glaringly stared us in the face every time we went to feed them. They wouldn‘t respond to good feeding and attention. There was little pleasure in trying to fatten them and they went to market with few exceptions an inferior bunch. We had learned our lesson and sometimes think it was fortunate that we did keep the bull long enough to be really imâ€" pressed forever . by the experiences and loss of a cheap sire. "Our next bull was of Grainford Mar-'; quis blood costing $100 at #ix months. Our first crop of calves healed our' wounds.

A worse case was that| of the helfers from the scrub bull. They had to be sold for beef. Instead of being able to select good heifers we had lost two years by using the serub. Though it cannot be counted in dollars and cents, the satisfaction in feeding and caring for good animals is really worth more than all other feaâ€" tures combined." The Duke of Connaught once went to an inn in Ireland, and, as his boots were muddy, he sat down on the gtairs and removed them, so that he should not soll a new carpet.
