This applies particularly to the artificially-fed baby. Digestive disturbances occur much less 'fre- quently in babies who are naturally- fed. The value of breast-feeding and its superiority over artificial feeding are chiefly evident during the summer months. Care should be taken the year round, but extra precautions are nec- essary during the summer if the baby is to be " properly safeguarded and kept healthy. There is a greater chance for milk to become contaminated in the home. Flies and other insects wfiich carry infection are present during the hot weather, and they do not hesitate to ! bathe in the milk if they get the chance to do so. Milk must always ' be kept covered and protected from (these pests. Milk is a food. In order that they ' may multiply, germs require food ( and warmth. < When milk is warm it fulfils the very conditions required : by germs for growth, and they do grow and multiply at an amazing- rate. If such milk is given to the baby, the heavy dose of germs which he receives together with the milk ' is very apt to set up diarrhoea! con- ditions. It is obvious then that not only should milk be kept covered, but also that it should stand in a cold place, and this means on ice. Xever ! should milk be allowed to stand a- i round in a warm room even for a short time. Do not overfeed the baby in sum- j mer. In hot weather, less food than ' usual s required, and this rule ap- plies to the baby as well as to the older members of the family. Do not urge the baby to finish his bottle if he seems inclined to leave part of it. When the weather is really hot, it is better to reduce the amount of milk given. Do not forget that the baby is often thirsty during the hot spells, and that he should be offered cool water between feedings. !i : . there is any doubt as to the purity of the water, it should, first of all, be boiled. I The baby may suffer from excess- live perspisation and a heat rash may appear as a result of the hot weather j and also because he is over-clothed. j The way to help the baby to avoid this discomfort is to clothe him light- ly. Digestive upsets in the baby should ! always be regarded as serious. If a diarrhoea does occur, all feedings should be stopped, cool water given for a drink, and the doctor called. We cannot overlook the fact that i nearly four thousand babies die in Canada in one year from diarrhoea and enteritis. Everything shou'<J be done to prevent the condition, by \ means of proper care, but if it does occur, then it must be treated promp- I tly and properly if the lives of our i babies are to be preserved. COUNCILS AND COMMISSIONS The Commission System of Hydro government has proved moet satisac tory in the majority of hydro raunic- | ipalities, but an increasing number of misunderstandings between Commis- sions and Municipal Councils is ap- parent. Jn searching for the reason, the Palmerston Spectator comes to the conclusion that it is due to lack of proper publicity by the hydro. In I this, the Ontario Commission is the ; worst offender in that their state- ments are practically a puzzle even to people who have more than common knowledge of financial affairs. If the hydro will give out more infor- mation of an understandable nature w e venture a prediction that a large number of these misunderstandings which exist, not only between Com- missions and Municipal Councils, but also between Commissions and gen- eral public will disappear.

In ad- dition to the dipping of sheep, fif- teen demonstrations in drenching of internal parasites were held.

The other 50 would spread their preferences over about twenty other makes. But you need not do that in order to get the real facts about tire value. It's already been done for you. Last Spring an independent agency, whose identity was un- known to the thousands of people who were questioned, asked that very question. And 48 out of every hundred replied "GOODYEAR!" In other words, the expressed preference for Goodyear Tires was about TWENTY TIMES AS GREAT as the average preference for all other makes. You'll be glad to know these facts. They will help you to make the wisest selection of tires. They will keep you from the hazards that dot the path of the uninformed tire buyer. They will guide you to the finest tire values Canada has ever known* Come in and see these Goodyears. Examine them .... feel them .... learn about the extra carcass life that Supertwist Cords give them and the extra safety the All- Weather Tread gives you. Then get the surprise of your life .... ask the prices! You'll find our Goodyears tagged at record low levels .... yes, priced as low as tires which enjoy only a fraction of public preference and esteem. Could anything keep you froaa buying Goodycars now? - ( ' * , 1 - ?~* I r! * : f*~ - - - - ' GOODYEAR MEANS GOOD WEAR D17I-J1 D. McTavish & Son FLESHERTON, ONT.
