POLIOMYELITIS.
(From State Board of Health.)
During the winter and spring
months of 1928 the prevalence of
infantile paralysis was greater in
the United States than usual al
though the number of cases was
not large. Since about the first of
June there has been an increase
throughout the country. There has
been an increasing number of cases
in this state. Now is the time to
be on the watch for early cases
which usually forerun an epidemic.
This is the most crucial period in
the development of epidemic condi
tions with this disease.
The only safeguard is eternal vig
ilance on the part of health officials,
the medical profession, nurses and
parents. Responsibility for the
safety of their children rests prin
cipally on the parents.- Do not try
to run away from infantile paraly
sis or poliomyelitis, as it is called,
after the epidemic begins. Remain
at home and guard the children
against fatigue and indiscretions
of diet Give them a little extra
rest during the day and watch their
temperatures. Tq keep the children
in their own yards during an epi
demic is the only safeguard against
infantile paralysis as there is no
prophylactic for the disease.
Since we do not definitely know
how this disease is transmitted the
safe rule is to isolate all who are ill,
especially children, until a diagno
sis shows that they are suffering
from a non-communicable disease.
All cases of infantile paralysis
should be isolated as completely as
possible in a clean bare room that
is well screened to keep out insects.
Only the necessary attendant should
bo allowed to come in contact with
the case. All discharges should be
disinfected. Eating utensils and
soiled clothing should be boiled.
During the acute stage the pa
tient hould be kept quiet Joints
will not stiffen and hopeless wast
ing will not occur during this stage.
Rest gives the damaged cord the
best chance to repair, and it is
sometimes necessary to apply a
plaster cast or other immobilizing
device. The hospitilization of in
fantile paralysis cases insures com
plete rest as well as the proper iso
lation and quarantine that is neces
sary. When the acute stage is over
muscle training should begin. De
formity can be prevented by keep
ing the feet at right angles to the
legs to avoid the most common de
formity, a dropped foot Manipula
tion during the acute stage may
increase the amount of disability
and in some cases has produced in
curable deformities. On the other
hand, muscle training and other
constructive measures have accom
plished results which are just short
of miraculous. Expert care is need
ed more in infantile paralysis than
in any other disease. Some cases
get well without any treatment
However, it is the experience of
crippied children hospitals that
most of the almost hopelessly de
formed cases have been treated
without any regard for the true
pathology of this disease.
The only way of eradicating con
tagious abortion in dairy herds is
through separating those showing
reaction to the test, followed by
cleaning and disinfecting the barn,
then replacing with abortion-free
females and finally testing the herd
frequently to catch any new infec
tion. The entire process of freeing
the experiment station herd at Cor
vallis of this disease is described in
a new bulletin, No. 232.

Taxi Driver Returns $35,000
Jewelry
Chicago. Carl Tronsted, taxi
driver, found a case on the running
board of his cab which contained a
glittering display of Jewels.
After making the discovery, he
sat up all night long with a pistol
guarding the jewel case.
In the morning he took It to the
cab company. An inquiry, and it
was found that the loss has been
reported by Commander William
Heard, U. S. N., en route to Pana
ma with his wife. The gems were
worth $25,000.
The most unusual part of this
story, some say, is that It happened
in Chicago!
Cat Spurns Fish and Milk, lives

line for you!
Last fall an emaciated kitten
crawled into the confectionery
store of Harry Goodman.
The kitten refused fish, meat
milk and all other delicacies that
usually whet the feline appetite.
Ever since the cat has subsisted
entirely on a diet of crackers and
water and has grown fat
The cat eats 150 crackers and
drinks a quart of water each day.

DRINK MORE MILK
Wise old Mother Nature made milk
for children. Into it she put every
thing needed for sustenance, and in
the most easily assimilated form.
So, Drink More. Milk. Let the
children have plenty. It is the

He: "When I was young, the doc
tor said that if I didn't stop smok
ing I would become feeble-minded.'
She: "Well, why didn't you stop?"
"What's all the loud talk in the
dining room, sister?"
"Father and mother are swapping
animals."
"Swapping animals?"
"Yep. She passed the buck to
him and got his goat"
The old hen gathered her brood
together and bade the twelve pul
lets guard their only brother while
she went out for the afternoon.
On her return all the pullets were
weeping bitterly and cried, "Oh,
mother dear, our brother is dead."
"Dead! How did it happen?"
"The minister came to tea. The
farmer's wife caught our brother,
plucked him, cooked him and the
minister has eaten him!"
"How sad! But we must look at
the bright side of things. Anyhow,
we can be thankful your brother
has entered the ministry for he
would never have been any use as
a lay-man."
An elderly lady entered a shop
and asked to be shown some table
cloths.
The salesman brought some, but
nothing seemed to suit her.
"Haven't you anything new?" she
asked. The perspiring shopman
brought another pile and said:
"These are the newest pattern,
madam. You will notice the edge
runs right around the border and
the center is in the middle."
"Dear me, yes, so it does. I will
take half a dozen of those," said the
lady.
Visitor: "Is Mr. Jones home?"
Mrs. Jones: "No; he went to the

"Visitor: "When will he be back?"
