jWEDNESDAY, JANUARY 30, 1935 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE A HEALTH &LRVICC Or The CANADIAN UCOICAl. .•StOCIATION AHO LIFE •MSUHANCE COMPAMIE* IN CAMAOA APPENDICITIS » In the y«ar which has pasfiud, eppt'iidicitis was rcspoiisiklc for over foiiiteen hundred deaths in Canada. More people died from api>endiciti8 alone than from typhoid fever, niea*ile!<, scarlet fever, whooping icoujrh and diphtheria put together Traffic accidents are of much too fnMiuent occurrence, but the fatalities ariiving out of such accidents are few- er than those due to appendicitis. The City of I'hiiadelphia has given particular attention to this disease. For five consecutive years, a clos« Rtudy has been made of all appen- dicitis deaths occuring in that city in order to detennine the factor.s which contribute^ the fatal outcome. At the same time, the Departinent ol Public Health carried on an educat- ional campaign in the hopes of im- proving conditions. AVe should learn from the experience of Philadelphia in order that we may profit by it, and so the findings of the F'hiladelphia (itudy are presented to our readers. Patients admitte<l to hospital within twenty-four hours of the onset of symptoms hud a mortality of less than '£ per cent; between twenty-four and was between forty-eight and seventy- to over 4 per cent; when the delay was between forty-igth and seventy- two hours, it ivachcd ov*r 8 per cent. From these figures summarizing the ex|>erieuee of a large city for five years, it is sluiwn .so clearly that everyone may understand the per- centage of deaths rises in ratio to the delay in socuring proper treat- ment. There were over 18,000 cases stud- iv<i. Of tl)e U^tal, aipproximabely ;{,000 did not have a laxative and 1 in 57 died; over 5,000 were given a laxative and 1 in 18 died; 729 had moi-e than one laxative and 1 in 'J died. Those who i-ead these figures will .surely jiever fo»-get that the giving of laxatives to man woman or child who has pain in the abdomen Ls the mnst dangerous thing which can be done. When there is pain in the abdomen nothing should l)e taken by mouth, and, above all. never a laxative. Pain which persists is usually seriou.s, and the .sooner the patient is undei propcT cai"e the better, because if the condition is apiJcndicitis, delay is dangerous, as has been clearly shown by the Philadelphia experience.

The essentials to success are free range and an abundance of tendei grass Or clover. The geese shoula start to lay about the middle of March and the eggs set as soon as possible. It is advi.sable to sprinkle the eggs with luke-warm water once daily when set in an incubator. Goslings require warmth after hatching and should l>e left under the goose or on the incubator for about two days. When the goslings are ready foi feeding place a green sod near the broo<Ier for them to pull the tender shoots. For the first few days they should be fed bread crumbs moistened with milk. When about a week old give them a moist mash compo.sed of epual weights of corn meal, barley meal, bran and shoit.s, feeding thro' or four times a day for about twD week-Sv Mrs. M.

Fish Meals And Live Stock WILL MOVE DEER TO GREY AND BRUCE Rondeau Park deer are soon to be moved to Bruce, Grey and Simcoe counties, where it is hoped that by making them more plentiful an open ssason m-'y be possible in these coun ties in a year or two. Man in Windsor was sent down Rondeau Park deer are tending to for three months because he secured become inbred and the surplus, for relief while he and his wife had which there in not sufficient food in ?G,.5(K) in the bank. When a man the park, are expected to improve gets that much money why under quickly when moved to natural sur- tho sun does he not retire? roundings. In the field of live stock feeding, fish meal has proven a rich source of nutrients. It is fed particularly for its protein and mineral content, and the percentage of these ingredients determines its value. There are thi'ee factors which have retarded the more wide-spread use of fish meal. First there is its rather high price in com- parison with the price of other feeds; second, the lack of definite informa- tion regarding its use; and third, a variability in the nroduct. The feeding of fish meal has been confined largely to swine, but it has also been used successfully for dairy cattle, and in a limited way for other live stock. Growing market animals and milking cows seem best adapted to utilize efficiently fish meal and other high pi-otein feeds combine<l with carbonaceous grains. Fish mea is relatively more valuable foi rapid gains an high production than for maintenance. However, fish meal may be includetl to advantage in the maintenance ratioin of breeding ani- rals, but the percentage used should be lowei- than that normally included in the growing ration.

The frozen pack of strawbeiTies and raspbeiTJes amounted to from 40,000 to 50,000 pounds in 1934, compared with 6,000 pounds in 1933. In 1935, the output i.s exnectod to exceed 100,000 pounds. In addition to small fruits, such vege- tables as .spinach, asparagus, and pea?, have been successfully treated. 'This process will extend the season of Canadian fruits and veg«^ables and it is probable that the frozen pl^xluci may compete with and displace a part of the impoi-ts of fresh product; There i.f on increasing interest being taken in frozen fruits by large insti tutions, such as hospitals which can freeze their owni supplies and hold them for use.

Selling For Cash T>^-ms that u^ed to atipaar on miction sale bills giving so many month.s' credit on approve<l joint notes and a percentage off for cash are apparently a thing of the part. X more abbreviated form in now in common use and the most of the sale.^ ai-o u.sually "Terms Cash." Numberra of the po.sters also beat the admonition that nothing is to be taken from the premises "until sat- isfactorily settled for." It would ap- pear that the farmer has gone on the Cash and carry basis also. Can it be that the creilit system is about to go from all phases of activity? A few yeai-s ago, everyone was urged to buy on easy terms. It woultl ricem that tlw terms were so easy that everyone l>ought. The paying days are here. They have .struck every walk of life, and the scales are apparently .iust another evidence of the cash basis being established. â€" Acton Free Press.
