tnii SOME OBSERVATIONS During the past dozen years I believe I have seen some fifteen ferious cases of uoitre? enlargement of the thyroid gland. All have been women; several were wives of physicians, and, all of them well past fifty years of age ? and all chronic. Naturally my most intense interest was in the treatment of the condition that proved most successful. At this date, there is only one of these fine women who remains victimized and is etill a sufferer. ' All the others have visited a celebrated clinic in a northern state, and have been successfully treated by skilled surgeons, and are now at home, happy with their families. The one unfortunate patient is my topic today. She listened to. a notorious quack who proposed to cure almost everything by DIET. She spent ? or wasted a period of years with this ignorant faddist. She has grasped at every straw',' with absolute failure at every turn. Her goitre remains perhaps as bad or worse than if she had not "treated" with the blatant quack. She has paid most dearly for her confidence in fakery. Now she is considering operation. She sees her neighbors all recovered ? and fully appreciates the time worse than wasted, in the hands of unscrupulous, incompetent juggles for money-in-advance. At last, after months, years, spent in "sanitoria" she is willing to submit to genuine, honest, capable hands? if she is yet in time. It is to be devoutly hoped that she may be rescued. If there is an arch-villain anywhere, it ia the unscrupulous exploiter of the sick and afflicted. We family doctors who cannot cure goitre, must look out for ?? skillful men who can ? and never forget to warn against the shameless imposter ? the quack. I The WOMAN'S ANGLE Nearly any meal has a perfect ending if it is pie. And any pie that is made with a filling of milk and eggs is nourishing, so that only a sandwich and a glass of milk be fore pie makes a really complete meal. ? ? ? Blanche Yurka, these days, wears her red-gold hair combed straight back from the ears, while the top hair is brought forward in a puff over her forehead and looking very Elizabethan. Startling, but smart. Very smart. At last New York hat done some thing about the genuine racketeering that has been possible in the breach of promise and In the alienation of affec tions suits. While there have been gen uine cases in both classes, it is recog nized tha many such suits were insti tuted solely as a convenient way of retting money. Henceforth New York State will have no such cases. The bill outlawing them was passed at the ses sion of the legislature just closed. Redingotes, always flattering to mature figures, are among the most popular styles for spring. Thost with printed short-sleeved dresses and long-sleeved coats in monotone are especially attractive. ? * * Cornflower blue and mahogany brown make an unusual color combina tion for late spring in a youthful pep lum style recently shown m New York. With a double pleated jabot and but tons of brown glass to finish the dress, it is a delightful combination. * ? * Vitamin D, the sunshine vitamin, is available in all sorts of foods these days, and of course, the greatest single source outside of the direct use of sun light on bare skin, is even yet ? cod liver i oil! But foods irradiated with ultra violet light are on the market, fresh milk of cows that have been fed ir radiated food, fresh milk that has been irradiated with ultra-violet light, and condensed milk treated the same way ? all these have more vitamin, D than they wuuld without special care. Timely Farm Questions Answered at St^te College Question: How mttch fruit and vegetables should be canned for each member of the family. Answer: Each adult member of the family should hare at least 57 pints of canned vegetables and 45 pints of canned fruit for use during the wintef. To the canned articles should be added twelve pints of dried fruits and six pints of dried vegetables. Preserves and jam will add the required sugar or sweets to the diet and a small supply should be prepared and ad ded to the pantry shelves. Question: Should rose bushes be dusted or sprayed during the blooming season? Answer: A good grade of dust ing sulphur should be applied to rose bushes at weeHy intervals through the entire season. Where the plants are infested with aphids or thrlps. the nicotine sul phur dust should be used. This is made by thoroughly mixing twelve ounces of forty percent nicotine sulphate solution with two pounds of hydrated lime and eight pounds of dusting sulphur. For the control of rose slugs the same solution is used with two pounds of Arsenate of lead added. Where the arsenate of lead is added, one pound of the dusting ?ulphur should be removed from the mixture. , ? . ? y. Question: What breed of chick ens is best (or producing capons? Answer: There is a heavy mar ket demand (or birds o( the yel low skinned breeds which include Rhode Island Reds, CochlnB, White Wyandottes. Barred and Plymouth Rocks. Jersey Qiants, and Cornish. Experiments at this station show a pre(erence (or Ply mouth Rocks over the Rhode Is land Reds, but almost any o( the hea ry breeds will produce good, marketable capons. A Judicious crossing o( any o ( these heavy breeds will produce birds with enhanced vigor and the ability to make rapid and economical grow th. GROWING livestock IS SAFE FARMING The depression a((ected the price of livestock as it did other (arm crops yet those wbo had ani mals to balance their crop produc tion did not snfter so keenly. This is the lesson, N. C. Ferebee of Camden County says . he has fearned. "The livestock on my farm pulled me through the de pression," ha told L. L Case, ani mal husbandman at State College. "Mr. Ferebee has a well-round ed livestock farm aad In addition to the actual sals* of livestock aad its products, he glres much credit to the manure produced in maintaining the fertility ot his laad." says Mr. Case. "He also was able to Mil his crops to the llvqrtook at ? fair price and to keep nearly all of the fertility at .ome instead of marketing it along with the low-priced crops." Livestock on the Ferebee farm consists of 22 grade Aberdeen, Angus breeding cows and their' offspring by a pure bred bull of the same breed. In addition to .ese animals, Mr. Ferebee usual y buys some steers to fatten for market. Recently, he sent a truck ioad of fat steers to the Baltimore uarket where they averaged 1080 pounds each in weight and brought J9.65 a hundred. There is an other truck load yet to be sold. But Mr. Ferebee does not keep beef cattle alone, Case says. He has ten Duroc-Jersey brood cows, a flock of 20 mutton-type ewes, five brood mares, five horses and one stallion. Mr. Ferebee has been breeding and raising his own work stock for 20 years," Case says. "It has been nearly that long since he has bought any work stock of tny kind and he believes that this in itself has been a great saving :o him, especially during recent years since the price of work anl nals has more than doubled. Like other successful livestock grow ers, Mr. Ferebee has found that the man who jumps in and out of livestock according to the price of crops does not do so well but the man who sticks to it, year after year, fares very well. CULL POULTRY FLOCKS TO INCREASE PROFITS The high price of eggs and feed this spring has complicated the problem of culling the poultry flock. While egg prices continue high, many pouttrymen will wish toi keep in their flocks as many lay ers as possible, said Roy S. Dear styne, head of the State College op^ultry department. But unless they are careful, he added, they may keep In tliei" flocks a number of birds wbi3b are not profitable, in view of the present price of feed. The flocks should be watched closely, he continued, for the egg production of some birds will slump rapidly in Hay, and the low producers should be culled without delay. Birds going out of production | in May or June are seldom good prospects for carrying over until I the next laying year. When their laying 'falls (Ott, most birds show a loss of color in the comb, which becomes dry and shriveled. The Vent no longer ap pears loose and molat, the abdo men becomes hard, and the birds lose their alert appearance. Broody birds at this season are also poor prospects, Dearstyne added. One broody spell will fol low another, with a result that egg production falls off. Since the breed season la over, be went on, there la no place for males in the flock. Without males, the flock will produce Infertile eggs which are of greater value from a marketing standpoint. Devitalised males, or males which do not produce off-springs with heavy egg producing possibi Gambling I '*OUND N?W YORK <"<&> -WU6W KENNY They put buses on Seconal Avenue and took up the granite paving blocks with the street car tracks. .Now the paving blocks are replacing gravel between Central Park's Fifth Avenue walls and the sidewalk. ? * ? Sundays on Seventh Avenue near Forty-second street are likely to bring out the "three-card monte" slickers to trim the passers-by. Working in pairs and triplets, the slickers still take their toll of suck ers. Though the sideshow opera tors of touring days and country fairs have almost passed out of ex istence, New York still offers the best market for slickers. ? ? ? Only four hours a day New York bars are not supposed to serve liquor. But summons for proprietors recently proved that they do.
